For the Ear. To draw an Ear-wig out of the Ear

Take a piece of an old Apple, and put it into the Ear of the Patient, and lie down all night upon the same side, and in the Morning pluck away the Apple very quickly, and the Worm will come forth. [This helpt a Woman in Oxfordshire] Also another Woman had one of the said Worms in her Ear, and she took Aqua vita, and dropped it into her Ear, and stopped her Ear with Bumbast, and laid her down on the same side, and was holpen presently; but if once will not serve, do it two or three  times.
