The cure of an Ʋlcerated Leg.

THere was a certain man of the age of six and thirty years, of complexion cholerick and sanguine, the which had his left leg all ulcerated, in such order that the Physitians and Chirurgians of the Citie would have cut it off, but in any wise I would not consent thereunto, but took it in hand, and gave him first our Magistrall Sirrup in the morning eight or nine daies together, and in the mean time I washed the leg with Wine wherein was boyled Mallows, Consolida ma∣jore, Carduus benedictus, and Honey, and then wet clothes therein, and laid them on twice a day, then I caused him to use a decoction of Lignum vitae, and the bark with Iva artetica, Carduus benedictus, Pollipodie, Ripontico, Wine and Sugar, and his common drink was wine and water boiled on the Fesses of the same, and this he used four and twentie daies, then I perfumed him with Cinaber three times, and ere three monthes were past, he was perfectly whole, for his disease came of the Pox, and those sores are commonly called Mal di for∣mica.
