CHAP. XXII. Of Ʋlcers in the Legs

THese Ulcers in the Legs are of two kinds, that is, filthy, and corrosive. The filthy Ulcers are caused of cold and moist humours: The corrosive are caused of humours hot and dry: and these are those Ulcers that goe creeping in the flesh, healing in one place, and breaking out in another. The fil∣thy Ulcer is stinking and full of matter, and causeth little pain, and their cure is with our Balm artificiall, which hath vertue to penetrate, digest, mundifie, and incarnate, and heal, when that the body is first well purged: but those that are caused of heat and drinesse, you shall cure with the remedy

written in the Chapter next abovesaid, and then dresse them with our Magistrale Cerot, and put thereon a little Precipitate, and annoint it with Magno liquore, and so thou shalt help them. But if so be it chance the said Medicine doe not heal it, you shall perfume them five times with Sinabar, Incense, and Myrrhe, and without all doubt thou shalt heal them.
