CAP. XXXIX. De Trachomate, seu palpebrarum asperitudine.
〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉, is an inequality and roughness of the internal part of the eye-lids, with redness, itching, and an hard ruggedness, as if the Seeds of Millet were in them, arising from an adust humour, that is salt, sharp, and biting. If the Malady grow further, and there appear clefts, and little parts standing forth, not unlike the seeds of Figs, it is called Sycosis. And when the disease waxeth old, and the Eye-lid becometh as hard as brawn, it is called Tylosis.
〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 in primo gradu curationem suscipit; 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 rarò; 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 rarò aut nunquam, & ma∣xima cum difficultate.
After emollient things used to qualifie the a∣crimony of the peccant humour, Aloes dissolved in Rosewater, and Myrrh dissolved in a womans brest Milk, is very much commended to cleanse.
Some cure this Malady, by rubbing the eye-lid, inverted and turned the inside outward, with Sugar Candy, even until the blood follow.
