CHAP. III. What Imposthumes are.

IMposthumes are certain Tumours or swellings, that come in divers parts of the body: the which are caused of blood and choller putrified, which cannot passe through the pores, and therefore ingrosse in that place, and so cometh to putri∣faction, and that is an Imposthume: which thou shalt help in this order. First purge the body to take away the humours which would goe to the Imposthume: which thou shalt doe with our Magistrale Sirrup, taking it eight dayes together: that being done, give him our Aromatico: this being done, thou shalt quickly help the Imposthume, as I will shew thee hereafter, with their perfect cure.
