Of the dismembring saw.

* 1.1 THis great and terrible instrument, onely ordained for amputation or dismembring, is fitting to be alwayes ready and clean kept in the Surgeons Chest, with two blades thereunto, though one good blade well used will serve an Artist for his whole life: but forasmuch as it is onely appointed, as is said, for the work of dismembring, I refer the Reader to a subsequent Chapter of dismembring, where I shal at large recite the use thereof, and (having small leisure) will now haste to the next.
