AN antidotary v, containing great variety and choice of all sorts of medicines that commonly fall into the Chirurgeons use: partly taken out of Authors, old and new, printed or written: partly obtained by free gift of sundry worthy men of this Profession within this Land.  
BY john Banester Master in chirurgery.  
Imprinted at London by Thomas Orwin for Thomas man.. 1589.   

To the right honourable, my very good Lord and Master, Ambrose Earl of Warwick, Baron Lisle, Knight of the most noble Order of the Garter, General of all the Queen's majesties Ordinance, and one of the Lords of her highness most honourable Privy Counsel.  
AS my desire (right honourable) & so also my endeavour, hath to this day been, both to profit my country, by a faithful usage of my hand in healing many members thereof, in my life time; as also, by public writings, to furnish numbers, to greater fitness in that service; even so likewise at this time, by this present book, I have continued my purpose. Heretofore I have set forth, first Anatomic, largely showing the making, number, situation, office, and utility of the parts of man's body, being and abiding according to the rule of nature. Then also I printed a general & particular handling & order of healing such diseases as are incident to the same parts, subject to the chirurgeons cure & administration. And now, lest for lack of choice of medicines in all those cases, the soil of this worthy Art should seem to be barren, & not able to yield plentiful variety, to satisfy every reasonable intention of the Artist, in the most high & difficult cures; I have gathered and published this manual antidotary, furnished as a fruitful meadow, with some things serving to necessity only, & other things affording delight beside: also as a fair forest which (besides the large scopes & delitesome chases) containeth trees likewise of all growths, and required uses: for in like manner, here are medicines, some of them bitter, biting & painful, serving where neither ease, nor delight of taste, but recovery of health requireth to be cared for. Yea here are medicines, differing in groweth, making, & strength: some of speedy, others of longer preparation, some for new-grown, other for inveterat diseases; some for simple, others for malign & depraved affects; some to be chosen for the tender & delicate, & others more fit for the rustical or harder natured bodies. Again, whereas men's like of writings, and tasting of wines, are things very agreeable to be brought into comparison: (for one saith of new inventions; these are of none authority, the ancient devices are better: another saith of the old, these are stolen, the later are fit for our times & bodies) I have endeavoured (as far forth as I might) to satisfy both affections: for which cause I have not only collected out of the best written practices both of old & late years, & obtained of my friends, very rare & tried medicines, as many as I could, but also, have (as it were) emptied myself of mine own peculiar furniture, and delivered of the very secrets of my practice; lest any thing should be wanting, on my part, to the fullness of the work. Now if it shall please your Honour (my good Lord) to vouchsafe it a place amongst those things, that are graced with your worthy name & Patrocine, my encouragement shallbe much increased. And my hope is the stronger herein; not only in respect of that free favour which your Honour hath vouchsafed me (in taking me in to the number of your servants, & partaking unto me your H. good countenance and protection; but also in regard, that so necessary a profession, as is this Art of chirurgery, may by this book receive much furtherance and enlargement: which is a thing that cannot fa●le of good affection from your Honour, in so much that your noble mind hath ever delighted in the public profit of your country. Only this shallbe my humble suit with all, that these my present labours, may for this time serve unto your Honour, & be acknowledged as a true pledge, & assured sign, of that entire affection, & dutiful mind, which I keep ready to be showed in whatsoever, even far greater service, your H. shall employ me in; or else until by the multiplying blessing of the Lord, myself may be able to offer some greater honour unto your renowned name. Mean time, recommending your H. in my daily prayers unto the L. of Lords, & labouring here, to avoid the tediousness of a long tale, I humbly take my leave: the 10. of August. 1589.  
Your ●. in all duty, and serviceable affection. john Banester.   

To his very loving friend, and worthy Brother in the Art of chirurgery, john Banester: William Goodrus wisheth all health and happiness.  
HE is counted a worthy Magistrate, who is seen a long time prudently & happily to govern his charge; and he is reputed for an excellent captain, that many times returneth out of the field with victory. But yet that Magistrate & Captain shall far shine above the other in glory, & universal applause of all sorts, that beside performing of their own parts excellently, do also by true and exactly digested precepts teach many to be like them. So must I needs say and confess, concerning you, (my good friend:) that albeit it might be said by many of us of this profession, that there is much love and favour due unto us of our Country, for well acquitting our callings in healing and relieving many pained & miserable persons, yet much more unto such as you, and above all the rest: seeing that over & beside the well accomplishing of your own particular charge, you have also by public writings, (and herein without all comparison excelling the rest of your countrymen) striven to fill this flourishing Land with most cunning chirurgeons. It were a manifest malignity not to impute it to your loving mind, and sincere affection to your Country: and so were it as detestable an ingratitude, not to render you like love again for it. For mine own part therefore, as I do unfeignedly & from my heart acknowledge all this that I have said of you, and therefore have reached unto you the right hand of love & friendship to continue whilst we live; so I earnestly wish and desire, that such as are not so minded towards you, may either very happily change their minds, as becometh them: or else most unhappily fail of their seeking, as they are worthy. What their malice hath been able to achieve against you hitherto, you have good experience; it is not to be hoped of them, that time to come will bring more prosperous winds for their sailing, although they threaten, fear them not: A wise man said, Those that proudly threaten others, do either suppose themselves to be Gods, or else think that those things which they threaten others with, cannot fall upon themselves. They are but the Scholars of Medius, one of Alexander's parasites, whose persuasion to his familiars ever was, that they should never fear, nor make nice, what crime they laid upon any man, having always for his wicked precept, this proper reason: for howsoever (saith he) the wound healeth again, yet there always remaineth some scar: the Quail is said to be most delighted to feed on venomous seeds: and so is the evil tonged man in casting forth venomous speeches, thus envy always traceth virtue, and treadeth upon her heels. Arrogancy also feareth, lest every praise that another deserveth, diminisheth somewhat of theirs, and obscureth their glory: those therefore, that are sick of this disease, will detract from you what they can; but this arrogancy commonly springeth of ignorance, for as the wheat ear, while it is green and unripe: is most full, swelling, and looketh high; but when it is replenished with ripe grain, than it is more shrunk in, and hangeth down the head; even so shall you see him that is emptiest of good gifts, or rawest in knowledge, ever lift his crest higher, and bear the stouter show: but he contrariwise that is best laden, holdeth his head lower; having indeed the substance of grain, when he is tri●d. Pliny saith, the Camelae●n hath very great lungs, but nothing else within her body, so (saith he) there be some, that beside their boasting & swelling ostentation, have nothing to be found in them: these are a kind of men, that (I hope) you will not care for, if they will needs meddle with you, allow them but time, and their own course will confound themselves; the Asp were an inevitable evil, if she were not by nature dim sighted: so I grant, were your enemy, pestilently dangerous, if according to their wicked desire, they had also other answerable parts, whereby they might approach you: but like as the herb Maidenhair, though it be sprinkled or dipped in water, will nevertheless look still as though it were dry; no more shall reproach and infamy (though it be notably attempted) cleave or stick unto a good man. These things had I, (good Master Banester (at the publishing of your antidotary, to write as an Antidote unto yourself: desiring, that according to the nature of such medicines, which both expel poisons already received, and also keep and preserve the heart, against all new infections; so this may both rid you of the present perplexities, and likewise defend you from future, against all your enemies.  
Your loving and assured for ever, W. Goodrus.   

Salutem in Christo Gulielmus Clowes.  
I Read that Seneca the wise Philosopher demandeth, What man is he that would wish to live in this transitory world, so full of mischiefs, calamities and miseries, without faithful familiarity and unfeigned friendship? It may be answered in a word, None, but the proud person, and the malicious and envious man, whose words and deeds discover the evil that is hatched in his heart. So that no firm friendship nor steadfast amity can once so much as appear in his life and conversation: but frameth himself with every mocking Parasite to throw out the venom and poison of his heart, to the discrediting of those that any thing excel him, either in knowledge or practice. Such a vile person was one Antiphilos said to be, who professed great friendship to Apelles, seeming both to reverence him for his skill, and honour him for his Art: yet when he did see that he grew in favour with all, so that his fame spread to the Court of Alexander, (who hearing of his skill in Painting, gave forth a commandment, that none should paint his Picture but only Apelles) this wicked Antiphilos (the very shape of shame, and fellow to all dissemblers & flatterers) with forged & false accusations practised privily to bring Apelles into displeasure and disgrace with King Ptolomeus, (who also dearly loved Apelles, and had him in great estimation). Yet he could not bring to pass his purposed practice: for the King through his deep wisdom examined the thing by the rule of reason, and soon found out the secret purpose and unhonest attempt of that perilous Pickthank, which sought by unjust means to have Apelles banished, and so to live as a man defamed: therefore upon due consideration had of the innocency of Apelles cause, the King neither satisfied the lewd expectation of Antiphilos, nor winked at his injurious and wrongful accusations, but perceiving the ●ilthie liquour that came forth of that stinking vessel, presently he tamed his tongue with the bridle of bondage, and beat down his malicious proud heart with the sharp scourge of continual slavery, condemning him justly, and commanding him straightly to serve as a bondslave to Apelles all the days of his life● In like manner, Master Banester my dee●e and loving friend's it is not unknown unto many good men, how under the colour of faithful friendship● you have been as it were compassed about, and deeply bitten with such like Antipholoses, whom you have nuzzled in your bosom: whose ill behaviour is such, that no good & wholesome laws can bridle or tame their piercing tongues. And one chief cause of their great impatience is for publishing of such like works as is this your antidotary, saying forsooth, that only their mere practice is sufficient without so many books: as if amongst blinde-men he that hath but one eye might be a King. But contrariwise, to the good liking of the learned, and men of judgement, you have performed and published this your antidotary to your great fame and commendation. It is most certain that the thing of itself deserveth praise: for they that read it with consideration shall find in it variety, brevity, sound judgement and variety, being full fraught and snuffed with many singular, good and approved practices, so that you justly merit praise of all true and faithful professors of this noble Art of Chirurgery, yet you know full well, it will be hard for you to cast off the burden and yoke of lewd reproaches. For no work can be so eloquently handled, but some Aristrachus or other (whose filthy stomachs, being inflamed with choler) will improve the same: either for the slenderness of the argument, impropernesse of the phrase, heavy and obscure reasons, false orthography, faults escaped, inckehorne terms, or some imperfection for want of knowledge in tongues: yet you for your part have prevented such vain prattlings, and I have good hope that this your antidotary will yield a sufficient medicine to cure that old ulcered malady, which hath so far infected their mouths, and tainted their tongues: insomuch, that if now they find faults, you and all may think, that either it is the vain humours of certain scoffing spirits, or else too much frequenting the hothouse, hath sweat out all their wits. Themistocles a renowned Captain of the Greeks, being upon a time very pensive and heavy, there came unto him a very familiar friend of his, and in secret manner demanded of him, what might be the cause that he was at that time so sorrowful and sad? If you will needs know (said he) the cause of this my present sadness, it is, for that many years being past since I was borne, I perceive not that I have as yet done any good thing worthy of memory for the benefit of my Country and Common weal, being (by this reason) hereunto persuaded, that I know no man in all Athens that hateth or beareth me envy. Now sith such a famous and most valiant Captain supposed it better to be envied and hated of the malicious, than to live in idleness of life, and baseness of mind, without doing of some good thing, (worthy of memory) for the profit and benefit of his Country and Common wealth wherein he lived: then let none of our proclaimers of infamy, (which are destitute of truth and godliness) once dismay you with their injurious vexations, which are neither pleasant in the hearing, nor yet profitable in the answering: for it is not the●r boorish or calvish bleatings, neither yet their impudent face upon their rotten and confused Pamphlets, that so pleasantly they sport themselves withal, and which now shortly shall come forth like monsters without perfect shape, (at least if they proceed according to their boasting) can hurt any: for they are lanterns void of light, moved with malice and defame: and do but deck their crow with other birds feathers. Although they counterfeit what they can, their long ears will discover them to come of Midas progeny. And when their time serveth they will try the dignity of their wits therein: for they pretend we shall be shortly utterly drowned in an unknown whirlpool. But let such idiots resemble themselves: it skilleth not, sith many of our ancients have tasted of such slanderers furious rages. And therefore they shall walk with Antiphilos, as bondslaves all the days of their life. And here I protest myself an open enemy to all such your wicked adversaries whatsoever: and I must confess that I am bound many ways so to do, not only in respect of our old acquaintance, or for that it hath pleased God to prosper & bless our labour, (being oftentimes called to divers great and dangerous cures: but chiefly, for that we both do serve under the right Honourable Earl of Warwick our very good Lord & Master, whom God long preserve in health to his good will & pleasure. These causes aforesaid do bind me in faithful and unfeigned friendship unto the uttermost of my power: the which I will perform, if it so please the Lord: who prosper all your lawful proceed in this our Art of Chirurgery. Amen.  
Yours: WILLIAM CLOWES.

If you will distill this in a stillatory according to Art, you shall first have a fine water, secondly a mo●t pure oil, thirdly the balm, which is most excellent in all wounds, as also in ulcers of the fundament, etc. The oil precious against all aches and gouts, the water preserveth from venom and pestilence.

Another which he much commendeth.

This may you also sweeten with honey or sugar for delicate persons, and give thereof morning and evening.   

Certain rules which the author observed in the ordaining of the drinks.  
1 That if there were danger of a fever, than these drinks were made with water and sugar, and not with wine and honey.  
2 That the patient's diet should be free from milk, cheese, eggs, fruits, and flesh of ungelded beasts or fowls, and that he should eat unleavened bread. As for carnal copulation all other authors forbidden.   

A more extraordinary practice by wound-drinkes, which the same author delivereth.  
Rec. Succum pilosillae, give to the patiented (that is wounded in what place soever) to drink: if he cast it again, he shall die: if he retain it, he shall live, and then for the first day give him to drink plantaginem & fragariam, the second day give him to drink those and gariophyllatae, the third day add to those three pilosellam, and give him so to the fift: the fift day put too the former hederam terrestrem till the seventh day. After which you shall in the same order begin to withdraw, till you come to the herbs of the first day, wherewith you began.   

Another order which Gilbertus showeth to have been practised by some.  
First they wash the wound with warm water, next they apply the lard of Bacon stamped with wormwood for three days: after that whites of Eggs with flax for four days. In the mean time they give also a drink made ex vino vel ceruisia & medie●ate mellis, with which also is boiled succus consolidae mi. & saniculae, & absynthij, & foeniculi, of which they gave every morning a full cup fasting, which would issue out by the wound and mitigate pain: then applied they to consolidate the wound when it was mundified. Rec. olibani, sarcocollae, ana. pares portiones, aloes quantum est medium istorum. Make these in fine powder, which then shall consolidate the wound in two. days, though it be very large. Also pulvis cornu ceruini shutteth up a wound, and taketh away the moist disposition.
