Fodicationum Emplastri.

THe vertues of this plaster are innumerable, as well against old vlcers as new, and also woundes. It drieth, mundifyeth and increaseth good flesh, and healeth more in a weeke then a∣ny other doth in a moneth. It will not suffer the flesh to cor∣rupt nor putrify, nor euill flesh to grow. Against sinewes being thrust through or bruised it is an excellent remedy. It draweth forth Iron, Lead, Wood, & such like being layd vpon the woūd.

It cureth the biting or stinging of venemous beastes. It brin∣geth an impostume to maturation, being onely laid thereon. It is excellent against the Canker, ignem persicum, and to mitigate all paines. And it may be kept 30. yeares in force.

These are to bee solde by Iohn Hester, dwelling at Pooles wharfe at the signe of the Stillitorie.
