HAuing knowledge that any man is poisoned, the chiefe remedie is to make him vomite the poison, in giuing him oile oliue luke warme to drinke, alone, or mixte with water, & if you haue no Oile, giue him Butter with hote water, or with the decoction of line seede, or the seede of nettles, or of Scinigrecum, and all these thinges purge the ve∣nim as well dounewarde as vpward after hauinge made him vomite diuers times, you muste purge him with sharpe glisters douneward: then giue him wa∣ter mixte with Honie, and also olde Wine ynough to drinke. But if you can get good Triacle or Mitri∣date, they are the principall against poysons with Terra sigillata, Acorne shels, and giue him of it in good wine. Let his meate be the fatte fleshe of olde beastes, and fatte brothes, specially of Hennes and fatte fishe, and lette him not sleepe, & in continuyng this meanes he shall be deliuerid, by the helpe of God.
