SAlamander. T. Is very cold, & their biting is deadly, Arnold. Ha∣ving as many venims as colours. If they bite once they never let goe; and if pulled away, they leave the teeth behind them, then there can never be any remedy, therefore they must be suffered to hang on, till they are wearied, and be put off by medi∣cines: After it, followeth a great paine, and scabb upon the place. The cure is by the decoction of Froggs drunk, and the flesh ap∣plied. Their poyson is not inferiour to that of any other Serpent, poysoning fruit, and the spittle causing the haire to fall off, the poyson it selfe is hot, like that of the cantharides, and so cured: sc. by vomits, and clisters, &c. Yet they hurt not swine, they are most poysonsome when dead, by putrefaction. If taken inwardly, the tongue will be inflamed, the body tormented by cold, corrup∣tion and putrifaction, paines in the fundament and stomach, drop∣sies, cramps and the ischury. The cure is by calamint, cypress, galba∣num, ammoniacum, and styrax, Cow-milk, scammony, and bacon. The powder helps cornes and is septick. Avic. As for their descrip∣tion, they are like the vulgar Lizard, but greater, their leggs are taller, and taile longer, they are also thicker and fuller, having a pale white belly, and one part of their skinne very black, the other like verdegrease, but both glistering, with a black line along the back, having many spotts like eyes, with baldnesse, out of which issueth a humour, that quencheth the heate of fire. They have

foure feet; and black and yellow spotts, with a great head, they breed like the Viper, and are bold, and very stout.
