A Complaint of the abuse of the noble Arte Chirurgerie.
A Midest the waues of Ocean seas, to memorie I gan to call, The famous arte of medicine, that daylie doth to ruine fall. A gift of God most excellent, to cure each mans infirmitie, Whereby his name extolled is, with praise and thankes continuallie. For what is he that doth beholde, the sundrie thinges that longes thereto, As gummes of trees, hearbs, seedes, and fruites, with stones and mineralls also. But will aduance his power great, to see their hidden propertie, And operations wonderfull, vppon the partes of mans body. And to fulfill this Godlie guift, he hath ordaned members fit, Chirurgians I meane which to the sicklie may deliuer it. But out alas I am constrained, with griefe of heart for to declare, That such a worthie arte shoud be, in peeces rent and left so bare. For to record the present state, it makes me greuously to mone, Sith Galen and Hippocrates, did exercise it all as one. In elder times there were but few, that had therein experience, But such in deede as did excell, in learning and in diligence.Page [unnumbered]
