Theses hasce

43. With the bowels thus soothed, we will prepare the bile with suitable syrups of endive, sorrel, and chicory, but in small quantity (so that a place may rather be given to decoctions). If the patient cannot bear more dilute things, we will exhibit juices extracted from herbs.

44. Finally, we will purge the prepared matter, either through the upper parts, as by vomiting, or through the lower parts, as through the bowels or urine, or even through sweat, if the impetus of the humor suggests it.

45. We will induce vomiting with the same things as we did a little before; however, the dose should be increased, and if the situation demands it, a little stronger in water; such as when the seeds and flowers of dill are decocted, as well as the root of radish, or the juice of the same radish is mixed at least with the decoction.

46. Galen empties the bowels with wormwood; we use rhubarb with cassia and tamarinds, so that its heat may be tempered.

47. The urine must be provoked by potions in which celery or dill have steeped. Roots of parsley macerated in barley water, with the addition of melon seeds, will achieve the same.

48. A bath of drinkable water will induce sweat, or the hot water of barley, to say only the mildest things.

49. After purgation, those antidotes will finally be administered, both internally and externally, which have the power to add strength and temperance to the laboring parts, especially the liver, while not neglecting the stomach in the meantime.

50. Internally, a conserve of chicory root and flower will be exhibited, along with tabellae triasantalon lozenges of three sandalwoods, sugar of roses, and juice or water of chicory. In the case of weakness of the stomach, let species diarhodon abbatis a compound powder of roses be added.

51. Externally, epithems topical applications will be applied from the juices of endive and liverwort, with a little vinegar mixed in; and also a sandalwood ointment, if use suggests it.
