The cure of a certain Spaniard called Carabasall di Cordonet, the which was troubled with the Pox.

THis Souldier, being of the age of two and thirty yeares, was mightily troubled with the Pox, with extream paines and sores, among the which, he had all his thigh so eaten away, as though he had been gnawn with Dogs, with most extream pain, and the way that I cured him was thus. I gave him twelve grains of our Petra Philosophale, with Sugar Rosate, the which caused him to vomit and to evacuate downward, of the which he found great case: that being done, I prepared him our de∣coction of Lignum sanctum solutivum, the which is written of hereafter, with a certain drink made with Wine, and Lignum vitae, and this he used five and twenty dayes, and then I an∣nointed him with our Ʋnguento magno, and in the space of forty dayes he was perfectly helped to the sight of all men.
