A medicine for a hawke that hath the teyne.

An hawke which hath the teyne is easily known if a man take heede, for this is her manner, shee will pant more for one batting, then an other hawke will for three, and if shee should but flie a little she would loose her breath, whether she be hie or lowe, and al∣waies shee is of heauie cheere, the cure whereof is thus, Take a quantitie of the rednes of assell with the pouder of a rasne, and peper, and somewhat of ginger, and make thereof with fresh grease three pel∣lets, then holde the hawke to the fier, and when shee feeleth the heate, make her to swallow those pellets by force, then knit fast her beake that shee cast them not out, and in doing this thrise, shee will bee sound.

Also take rasne and rubarbe, and grinde them to∣gither, and make a iuice thereof and wet your hawkes meate therein, and giue it her to eate, and it will cure her. Also take Alysaunders and the root of a primrose, and seeth them in butter, and giue your hawke three morsels euery daie vntill she be whole.
