Burning with Shot, or otherwise.

If your Horse be shot, after you have drawn the Bullet, take Varnish and Water, and beat them well together; then pour away the water from the varnish, and with a feather anoint the place burned.

This following Ointment is good for any burning what-ever: Take a stone of Quick lime, well burned (which you shall understand by the lightness ther of) and dissolve it in fair water, when the Lime is settled to the bottom, strain the clearest of this water through a fine linnen cloth; then add thereunto as much Oil of Hemp∣seed as there is water; beat these well together, and you will have a most pretious Ointment for all burning whatsoever
