For the Feaver, or Ague.

THESE Distempers, and especially the first, are in∣hrents to Goats, and vey rarely, especially of any yeas standing, they are altogether without it; it is occsioned, by too much heat in the Blood, by reason of their Lstfulness or indeed, that which prompts them to it, and is known by an interchange of Heat and Cold. To remedy this:

Let them blood under the Tongue, then take a great Thistle, Roots of Fern, and Reeds, of each a moderate halful bruise them well; Coiander-seeds two Ounces, the Juyce of Sorrel as much, Peels, or seeds o Citron, or emon, an Ounce and a half, boyl them in three pints of unning Water, and give the Beast the liquid part to drink.
