For the Eyes. For a Pin and Web in the Eye
Take the Ivy leaves, that grow upon an Ash tree, wipe them clean with a cloth, and stamp them and strain them, with Womans milk, if it be a man that a Pearl in the Eye, strain it with the milk of a woman that nurseth a Girl; if a woman have a Pearl, then with the milk of a Boy, and the sorer the Eye is, the more of the juice you must take, and lesse of the milk, and drop this Medicine into thine Eye with a feather, morning and Evening, and twice in the afternoon. This is proved.
