THose Caruolli that come vpon the yeard, are of di∣uers kinds, as by reason and experience thou maist sée, but the most part are taken by vsing the company of leind and corrupt women, infected with the Poxe, and those are the worse kind, for they are the first originall of the Poxe, and of those Caruolli come Pannochie or
hotches, and certaine great scabbes, Dellaria, aches and tumors, and an infinite of other euill effects, and these are the first kind. There are another kind the which commonly come of their owne accord by reason of heat, and those are easie to be helpt, and are not perillous or painefull. There is another kinde, the which is as though it were scorched or burnt, the which commeth through debilitie of the yard, and hauing company with women, and these are also of small importance.
The first kind are certaine Vlcers that come vpon the end, and some vpon the proper substance of the yard, and some vpon the skinne, and the order to cure them is thus. Yee shall mortifie them within and without with our Causticke, and when they are mortified, ye shall dresse them with our Magno licore, and they shall be whole quickly.
But ye shall well note, that many times after they are healed afore xv. dayes doe passe, there will come a certaine alteration in the threate, so that they can scarce swallow their meat, and this alteration many times en∣dureth vi••j. or x. dayes, and then it resolueth by it selfe, and that is a certaine signe of Pellaria.
And therefore if thou wilt anoyd that inconuenience that the haire fall not of, asso••ne as ye féele any of the aforesaid griefes, their presently take a quantitie of our Electuario Angelica, and then take our Siropo magistrale 4. or 5. dayes, and annoint thy head x. or xij. dayes with our Magno licore, and so by these meanes thy haire shall not fall. Because our Electuario Angelica doth euacuate the stomacke and cleanseth the head, and dryeth vp the matter, the which is already altered by that disease. Al∣so our Siropo Magistrale, doth euacuate the body, and pu∣rifie the blood, and staketh the fury of the disease. Our Magno licore preserueth the haire from drying & fall••••g.
There commeth many times, after these Caruolli are healed, certaine Impostu••es in the ••••oyn••, of the which
we will speake of in another booke particularly. The other kinde of Caruolli that come vpon the yard, are helpt onely by washing them with some bath that is re∣strictiue and comfortatiue. The other kinds which is like scorching or burning, are helpt by kéeping them cleane, and annointing them with a Liniment of Tutia camphorata.
And thus I make an end, giuing to vnderstand to those that practise, how that they may auoyde that di∣sease called Pellaria or falling of the haire or beard, for this is one of my secrets, whereof I meane to write a great number if God permit.
