The Falling of the Hair.
Vicious and naughty humors do impair,
And quickly may corrupt the roots of hair:
If th' head wants moisture, and the skin be rare,
The hair forsakes the head, and leaves it bare.

If th' head wants moisture, and the skin be rare,

Burn some Goats dung; the ashes will repair,
If it be mixt with oil, the falling hair.
Seeth Mallow-root in water; wash thy head
In this against the scurff, and thou hast sped.
If it be mixt with oil, the falling hair.
Seeth Mallow-root in water; wash thy head
In this against the scurff, and thou hast sped.
