For the Stone.

THe best thing that is to dissolve the Stone in man or womans body, is the oyl of Christal, being dulcified and given to the Pa∣tient, a Dram at once in white Wine or Re••ish Wine a good draught; for if you lay a stone in the Vrine which the Patient voided, afterwards it will dissolve him in twelve hours; and the same oyl will also heal any green wound or sore with great expedition. There was a man the which was sore grieved with the Stone, who was holpen with this drink following. Take the blossoms of Haws, and distyl them; then take the water thereof and seeth it, and put therein Grommel-seed, Saxifrage-seed, and Parsly-seed, of each an ounce, of Goats blood, Hares blood, and Fox blood, of each of them seven Drams; seeth all these in a quart of the water, in a close pot of Pewter or earth, in a Kettle of water the space of six hours; then strain it and drink thereof every day. This is an excellen thing.
