The Cholick.

Flamma sine Fumo | ||
The Cholick.
Some gross and slimy humors, or the wind
Contained in the guts, the cause we find.
Meats raw, and meats corrupt, but chiefly fat,
And cold drink after heat engender that.
The Cholick in the belly causeth pain
With griefs: the Patient doth his meat disdain.
Contained in the guts, the cause we find.
Meats raw, and meats corrupt, but chiefly fat,
And cold drink after heat engender that.
The Cholick in the belly causeth pain
With griefs: the Patient doth his meat disdain.
Take grains, and beat them small, then boyle them well
In Aqua vitæ, wind if you'l expell,
Old dung of beasts with frying oyle apply
Vnto your side, all pains to mortifie:
March Mallows boyl'd in water three dayes,
Grief in the bowels without doubt allayes.

Old dung of beasts with frying oyle apply
Vnto your side, all pains to mortifie:
March Mallows boyl'd in water three dayes,
Grief in the bowels without doubt allayes.
