Remedies for a mans Yard. For one that cannot make water

Take the Stones and Kernels of Peches and Medlers, as much of the one as of the other; and make them into Powder, very fine, and searse them; this done, take fine Sugar, the weight of all this; and mingle all this together, and let the Patient drink thereof with good white Wine, and he shall be whole incontinent.

Another for the same

Take six or seven Berries of Ivy, and stamp them, and strain them with Ale, and give the sick to drink thereof, and he shall make water.

Another for the same

Take a pinte of good Ale, and put therein of Honey, even as it cometh out of the Hive with Bees, wax and all, and strain it with the Ale, then give it to the patient to drink, and within one quarter of an hour he shall make water; with this was one holpen that lay three dayes, and never made water.

Another for the same

Take a pinte of white Wine, and a good spoonful of Sivil Soap, finely scraped, and the yolks of two Eggs well put from the whites; beat all together, with the Wine, and then strain it and warm it luke-warm, and drink hereof as often as you shall feel pain, and this will help you; for it is proved.
