Tumour in the Eye: This is otherways called a Phlyctena, or a little Tumour in the carneous Tunicle of it. To remove it, Take the Decoction of Mucilages, and dress the Eye with if for some time to ripen the Tumour; then with a steady Hand open it with a Lancet, or Needle, and press out the offensive Matter: then cleanse and heal the Part with Honey dis∣solved in a little Saga-water. But when the Tumour is be∣ginning, and not great, if you have not the Decoction of Mucilages, you may dress the Eye with the Mixture of equal parts of the Water of Melilot, Chamomil, and Bet∣tony.
