Treatments and remedies transcribed from a working Physician's handbook published in the 17th century. Check out the Introduction
For the Eyes. For the Eyes that run full of water, and be bleared
Take the juice of Rue foure spoonfulls, and two of Honey, and mingle them together, and when you go to bed, put thereof into your Eyes and keep it in together, and use this, and it will help thee. Or take two or three roots of red Fennell, and the leaves also, and a branch of Salendine, and a good race of white Ginger, pared and beaten flat, and if one be not great enough take two races, put all these into half a pint of running water and cover it, and use to put of this water into your Eyes, when you go to bed, and an houre before you rise in the morning; when you take thereof strain it.
