The Palsie oyle to make to anoynt twice a day for any ach or benummedness.

TAke Neats-foot oyle, Rosemary tops, sweet Marjoram, of each two handfuls, Lavander tops or leaves, before it shoot to blow two hand∣fuls, red Sage, Camomile, Wormwood, Time, and Hysop, each one handful, chop them smal and put them to the oyle, and let them boyle apace til the Hearbs be changed, and the Oyntment of a fair green colour, then strain it out, and keep it in a Glasse close stopt for use, it wil-last seven yeares in its ful force and vertue; if you cannot have the Lavander green when you would use it, you may take it dry, and likewise the other hearbs, but then you must take the greater quantity; I made this Oyntment at Michaelmas last, for one who

was suddainly stroken in her limbs, so that she was not able to stand, and was afflicted with violent pain; it was on the Sabboth day she was taken a∣bout ten in the morning, I prepared the Medicine by two in the afternoon, wherewith she was a∣noynted, and (by Gods blessing) was very wel by night, and so hath continued. Δόξ τῳ Θεῷ. It was at Wokingham, where I was unprovided of the Hearbs, in my own Garden, where I had not much residence (though too long for my purse) and I was enforced to buy them at a Gard∣ners, who shewed me an exact Wokingham con∣science, and as most of that Town do, he made a vertue of my urgent necessity, and made me pay sawce for my Hearbs, although you would judge them but of smal price; this I record here, only to learn others to beware of Wokingham, lest they pay for it as deare as I have done.
