Medicines for the Face. For Worms in the Face.

Take of Rosine three parts, and the fourth of unwrought Wax, one spoonfull of Honey, half a spoonfull of May Butter; try them altogether on the fire, then strain it through a fair Cloth into a dish of fair Water, and when it is so cold that you may stir it with your hand, work it well against the Fire, as you do an Electuary, and in working thereof, put in as much white Coperas as a Nut, as you do occupy it, made into Powder, then strike it on a Coth, as you do other plaisters, and lay it the Face, and within three dayes you shall know whether there be Worms, and they will rise white like Wheals, under the plaister: then cast more Coperas on your said plaister, and so dresse him, and he shall be whole.
