=40.= 14. _steke_] shutt (which is a gloss). 24. _go belte, grese_, _i.e._ go and belt them, and grease them. As to _belting_, see the next section. I. R. very stupidly alters the phrase to _goe melt grease_, though he has to retain the word _belt_ below. =41.= 18. It is hard to make an old dog stoop; _i.e._ it is hard to make him submit to being taught. This occurs in Heywood’s Proverbs, 1562 (Hazlitt). In the most insipid way, I. R. alters _to stoupe_ into _for Sheepe_, spoiling the whole saying. =43.= To _medle terre_ is to mix tar. I. R. alters _medle_ in the rubric to _melt_, and then substitutes _mingled_ for _medled_ in l. 1. This is very clumsy. =44.= In the rubric, I. R. alters _brome_ to _browne_, which is certainly wrong; see the context. 7. _gelly_] Ielly. Yet the spelling with _g_ is well enough. 8. _pysse_] pisse or lye. See _lye_ in the glossary. 14. _or of faldynge_, &c.] or a folding of some such soft cloth or wooll. It is clear that I. R. did not know the word _faldynge_, or he would not thus have altered the text. 17. _sheydes_] sheeds; _i.e._ partings; see sect. 42, l. 4. 24. _for_] from (as in other places). _For_ = against, to prevent. =45.= 4. _fyled_] filled. This is wrong; _fyled_ means fouled, defiled. =46.= 3. _rather_] sooner. I. R. adds--There be diuers waters for this purpose, as water made of Sandiuer and burnt Allom, or the iuyce of Housleeke strained and mingled with Rose-water; or the braines of an hatched, as thus: Take a linnen cloth, and burne it vpon the head of a hatchet, then blow away the ashes, and there wilbe on the hatchets head a kind of oyle, that taken and put in a sheepes eye, is most excellent. =47.= 3. _clese_] clawes. 9. _clese_] clea. _Clea_ is _claw_; _clese_ = _cleas_, claws. 15. _pece of fleshe_] peece of fleame (i.e. phlegm). =48.= 12. I. R. adds--to the great hinderance of the sale. =49.= 1. _pockes_] Pox (the modern spelling). 9. I. R. adds--but if you cannot wash them, then let them blood in the roofes of the mouth, and after they haue left bleeding, giue them a supping of milke and Saffron mingled together. =51.= 6. _murtheryng or ouer-pressyng_] smoothering or oppressing. And certainly _smothering_ seems the right word. 10. I. R. adds--Wash your sheepe in running Riuers, for standing Ponds are ill. =52.= 4. _tarboxe_] Tarbox, or bronne salue. Here _bronne_ is a misprint for _broune_; and _broune_ is a mistake for _brome_. See note to sect. 44 above. =54.= 14. After _shepe_, I. R. inserts--salt marshes onely excepted. 22. _kelles vppon the grasse_] kels vpon the grasse like to Spinners webs. (A _spinner_ is a spider.) 31. _white snailes_] white finells (not clearly printed). =55.= 2. _stryndes_] strings (badly). So also in l. 4. 16. _lyttel quikens_] a little quicknes (absurdly). _flokes_] flocks. But _flukes_ are meant. Here I. R. inserts a chapter on goats, as follows. Chapter 20. ¶ Of Goates and their profit or vse.
