¶ This most precious balsam is made in manner like a plaster for every ones conveniency, because they may carry it about with them wheresoever they please, and it is also made hard, because if it were liquid, it would bee great Inconvenience to carry it. The Remedies of the said balsam. 1. FOr a Scald-Head, let all the hair be shaved off very well, as near the skin as is possible, afterwards let it be spread upon a piece of linen or thin skin and bee laid upon the Sore, leaving it for two dayes, afterwards change the plaster three or four times, observing that every time the hair must be shaved away, and the putrefaction taken away, washing it well with a little water, wherein hath been boiled, Rosemary, Sage, and C●pporas together, or with Urine, Vinegar, or verjuice, according to your discretion, and then it will be cured whole and sound without any pain; observing also that the Patient be well purged after he is Cured, or else the Disease will come again. 2. It is good for all kinds of Impostumes which breed in the Throat, although they are rotten and corrupted, and if it be possible you may let down ● Tent, because the corruption will be the sooner forced to come out, and it will heal the better, dressing it Morning and Evening, and hereof J have made experience on divers persons, who have such diseases fifteen or 20. yeares, and it is also good for any impostume or disease that cometh in the Head. 3. It is excellent against the little Pimples which come in the Face, and for other Ulcers and Sores which come in the Nose, putting in a Tent of the said balsam. 4 For all sorts of Diseases which breed on the Lips. 5 For any Fall or Bruise in any part of the body applying the said balsam. 6 For all diseases of the Breast, which are corrupted and putrefied, it takes away the grief and heals. 7 It is very good to purge Issues, and takes away the ill savour, and abates the carnosity, and takes away all inflammation. 8 For the felons which breed on the fingers or hands, which are ripe, corrupted and cankered, dressing them evening and morning it will presently heal them. 9 For all Wounds old and corrupted, caused by any means whatsoever, they are presently healed with the said balsam, washing them with sack, and drying them well afterwards. 10 For all venomous diseases which come on the body, as the Plague and the Carbuncle, you must presently scarify them as deep as is possible according to the place where they are, or else with fire, which will be less pain and more speedy, and dress them morning and evening. 11 For all sorts of ulcers which come upon the Privities, so soon as they are seen to come out, apply the aforesaid balsam, and it will cure them at two or 3. times. But if the Ulcers have gone from part to part, or have eaten a piece of the flesh, take Plantane-water and Rose-water and a little Coperas at your discretion, and wash it evening and morning, gently laying thereon the said balsam, upon a fine piece of linen, observing that it is very necessary to purge for deep Ulcers. 12 And it is also good for all Swellings which happen in the same part and in the Cods, with the scab or itch. 13 And for all other diseases which grow in the Yard, as inflammations or little Pimples, or any carnosity or other sores, take a thick Lute string, or a long thick cord, according as you please, which can go into the bladder where the disease is, warming the said balsam a little, and with the same anoint the said cord over, wetting the same with Plantane-water or Rose-water, because they may not cleave to the fingers putting it into the yard, because so it will draw forth all the putrefaction, and open the channel through which the Urine passeth. 14 There are two sorts of Impostumes which usually swell in the groin, one great without, and thick, and when it is very great, it must be cut, and afterwards, make a Tent dip't in the said balsam, and dress it therewith, keeping it open as much as is possible, because it may purge out the corruption. 15 The other hath no corruption, but only a little water and it comes not forth, therefore for this use the said balsam is to draw out the said poison, but you must first purge well, otherwise you shall have the shedding of hairs or the French-pox. 16 For sore Legs, spread the said balsam upon it, on very thin leather or linen, which will draw out all the corruption, putrefaction and pain, and will heal it. This balsam hath cured divers very aged men, which otherwise should have had their legs cut off. 17 For Kibe-heels, apply it to them upon thin leather, and it presently takes away the pain, and cures them. 18 For Womans diseases, and for ulcers which come forth and may be seen and dressed, apply it in thin plasters as in other diseases, and wash them after the same manner as abovesaid. I have a Powder to take away the pains of the Head. It is good for the Falling. sickness. And also very good for the pain in the Teeth. I have another sort of Powder to keep the Teeth white& from spoiling. I will help any ulcer within the mouth. I have also another Water to take away the Morphew and Freckles in the face. I have likewise a Water very good for sore Eyes, that will preserve th●m clean. I have a very rare th●ng for to cure ●hel●ch or Scab. With divers other cures &c. For within the nature, take wax and put it to melt in a skillet, and afterwards put it in could water, take a long ribbon according as you please, and of this wax make a long Tent in fashion of a thick candle, according to the largeness of the nature which may touch the disease within, afterwards take this balsam and melt it, and anoint the said Tent all over therewith, and when it is could; put it in and bind it with a roller, in such a manner that it cannot come out, and so you may go on horseback or in a Coach without any trouble, dressing it Evening and morning, washing and making the said Tent clean, and laying on it the said balsam as aforesaid, and in this manner all Ulcers, inflammations, Itchings, and all sorts of diseases which are within are cured; and this J have written because honest women, rather then they will let it be seen, will die in great misery, and thus may they have cure and heal themselves. 19 It is very good for all sorts of bitings of venomous creatures. 20 Also, when there is in the flesh, glass, or thorns, or iron, or Bullet, or any other things, apply it thereupon, and it will will draw it out, and take away the pain. 21 For the Emorroids, take fresh butter, without salt, as much of balsam or a little more, and beat them together in a clean mortar, and thereof make an ointment, and apply it within or without where the disease is, and it will Wo●ke the same effect wi●h Linseed oil; or Rape oil, dissolved together in form of an ointment, and this ointment made with Linseed oil, or Rape oil is very good for shrunk sinews. 22 It is excellent for all sorts of Burnings or Scaldings, because it presently takes away the pain, and heals them. And where there is no disease it causeth no alteration, though it lie a long time upon it. 23 It is very good for Cornes, spreading the same upon leather, or some linen cloath, leaving it two dayes and two nights thereon, and when you take it off, scrape the corn, and in using the same three or 4 times, it will be well. And if any thing happen to the nailes by growing in the flesh, this balsam will soften it that you may cut or pull it out at your pleasure, or any ulcer or Gangrene whatsoever. 24 Lastly, This precious, balsam keeps good for ever, and is never putrefied, and this is the real truth, as appears by many experiences made by nay self and others; and this J can justify before God and man.
