〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉, seu Hordeolum, is a small, hard, firm, and somewhat long tumor, like unto a Barley corn, especially when it comes to suppu∣ration,
having his matter contained in a little skin, growing in the outmost part of the eye-lid, where the hairs be, arising from a flegmatick humor thick and mingled with blood.
This Tumor is taken away by Barley masti∣cated, or chewed, upon an empty stomack, and so applyed; or by the bodie of a Fly (the head thereof being cast away) if it be rubbed there∣with.
