Of the Adder. Cap. xliij.
[illustration]

THe Adder layeth gladly in ye son¦ne beames / and it crepeth somty¦me thrugh a very strayte hole and so strepith his skyn of and reneweth hȳ It is as lōge as an ele / it glydeth on ye grownde & it geueth venymous blas¦tes / and trobeleth them that come in his waye / & styngeth them venemou¦sly / it flyeth frome the herte & kylleth the lyon The skyne that it strepyth of dressed in a decoctiō with oyle is very good in ye eares as testefyeth phisiol{us}.
