¶How ye shall fede your hawke and to knowe her Infyrmy∣tees: and there ben many dyuers of theym.
YF your hawke be a spare hawke: euer fede her wyth vn∣wasshe meete / And loke that her castynge be plumage. Thenne loke that it be clene vnder the perche. And on ye nexte day ye shall fynde the castynge vnder the perche. And the¦re ye shall knowe whether the hawke be clene or noo. For some pece wyll be yelowe: & some grene: and some glaymous: & some clere. And yf it be yelowe: she engendryth the Frounce / whyche is an euyll yt woll ryse in the mouth or in the cheke. And yf it be grene: she engendryth the Rye. The condycyon of this euyll is this: It woll aryse in the heed & make the heed to swell / & in the eyen all glaymous & derke. And but it haue helpe it woll dow∣ne in to the legges & make the legges to rancle. And if it go fro the legges in to the heed ayen thy hawke is but loste. And yf it be glaymous and ropynge: she engendryth an euyll callyd the Cray / that is whan an hawke maye not muteyse.
