* 1.1SOmtyme is the Lyuer diseased of hys oune faute or vice: somtyme also by other membres. When it is diseased of it selfe / that is somtyme of heat or colde / somtyme of superfluous moysture / or els of dryenesse or droughte / where of the lyuer and bladder get great hurte. When it is so diseased / then let the patiente at the lyuer veyne in the arme: or els lette hym bloode in the small toe of the ryghte foote. But if he hath eaten / then lette hym blood by the litle finger vpon the hande / and geue hym to drinke barley water. Let hym eate no fleshe / nor chafynge or inflamynge meate / no salte meate / none olde baken breade / no egges / nor none vndigestible meates.
