CHAP. XIV. Of Imposthumes in the Eies.

IMposthumes in the eies are like certain white bladders that come about the nose, and the matter that is within them is like the white of an Egg, and these are caused of humiditie and moistness of the head, and because they have a confe∣rence with the head, they are evill to heal, for they turn to watering Fistula's, which, when they come to Fistula's, con∣tinue for ever. But if thou wilt cure them perfectly that they never come again, you must first purge the head with our Aromatico, and that you shall doe every five daies once for three or four times; that being done, thou shalt annoint the head with Oil of Frankincense the space of a moneth, and into the eie where the Imposthume is, thou shalt put once a day one drop of our Balm artificiall, which will help it and dry the Imposthume, and so in short time thou shalt be hel∣ped. For this is the true Secret wherewith thou mayest help those Imposthumes, never known before of any man, and they are much contrary to the Medicines of Mesue, by which our Physicians now adaies make their Medicines.
