VVHen the member is brought to his natu∣rall place, you must with all diligence labour to confirme the part, and keep the mem∣ber from slipping out againe; therefore annoynt the place with oyle of Roses, and apply unto it a
fine old linnen cloath wet in oyle of Roses, also use cloaths wet in the whites of Egges, and apply them to the joynt; wet your rollers in water and vinegar mixed together, and roll the member therewith, and if necessity require, use splints of Leather, or pasted paper, and apply them about the joynt; but be carefull the part be not too hard rolled, for feare of inflamation; lay the member in his naturall figure, and unlesse some great and ill accident happen, open not the member before the tenth day at the least; use not hot cloathes or medicines for feare of inflammation, but rather some refrigerative cerate: and labour to defend the member from a flux of humours, by strengthening it with apt and convenient medi∣cines hereafter mentioned, keeping the Patient to thin and small diet purging and letting bloud if need require.
