A singular Medicine to stop blood.

TAke Swines Dung, as hot as you may have it from the Swine, & when you have cleansed the congeal'd Blood out of the Nose, wring it through a Cloth, and let that juice pierce into the side, from whence the Blood cometh, and by the Grace of God it shall stanch anon. Moreover it is good to bind the Feet and Arms, as hard as can be suf∣fered with a Cord or Lace, the stronger the bet∣ter. Or take strong Vineger, and put it into the side of the Nostrill that bleedeth; and if they bleed both, put it into both, and it shall stop straight: Or take and bear about thee the herb Appium, o∣therwise called March Smallage, that groweth by the Waters side, and whilest thou bearest the same about thee, thou shalt not bleed, if thou haddest many Wounds.
