the　legs；　fasten　it　at　the　navel。　But　if　he　wish　to　evacuate　the
bowels；　let　him　do　so　upon　a　very　narrow　night…stool。　Or；　if　the
patient　be　a　child；　let　him　be　placed　on　the　feet　of　a　woman；　with　his
back　reclined　to　her　knees；　and　when　the　bowels　are　evacuated；　let　the
legs　be　extended。　In　this　way　the　anus　will　be　the　least　disposed　to
fall　out。　When　a　watery　and　ichorous　discharge　flows　from　the
rectum；　wash　it　out　with　burnt　lees　of　wine；　and　water　from　myrtle；
and　having　dried　maiden…hair；　pound　and　sift　it；　and　apply　as　a
cataplasm。　But　if　there　be　a　discharge　of　blood；　having　washed　with
the　same；　and　pounded　chalcitis；　and　the　shavings　of　cypress；　or　of
juniper；　or　of　stone…pine；　or　of　turpentine；　the　in　equal
proportions　the　apply　as　a　cataplasm。　Anoint　the　external　parts　with
thick　cerate。

　　　9。　When　the　gut　protrudes　and　will　not　remain　in　its　place；
scrape　the　finest　and　most　compact　silphium　（assafoetida？）　into
small　pieces　and　apply　as　a　cataplasm；　and　apply　a　sternutatory
medicine　to　the　nose　and　provoke　sneezing；　and　having　moistened
pomegranate　rind　with　hot　water；　and　having　powdered　alum　in　white
wine；　pour　it　on　the　gut；　then　apply　rags；　bind　the　thighs　together
for　three　days；　and　let　the　patient　fast；　only　he　may　drink　sweet
wine。　If　even　thus　matters　do　not　proceed　properly；　having　mixed
vermillion　with　honey；　anoint。

　　10。　If　procidentia　ani　be　attended　with　a　discharge　of　blood；　pare
off　the　rind　of　the　root　of　wakerobin；　then　pound　and　mix　flour　with
it；　and　apply　it　warm　as　a　cataplasm。　Another：　Having　scraped　off
the　rind　of　the　most　tender　roots　of　the　wild　vine；　which　some　call
psilothrion；　boil　in　a　dark　austere　wine　undiluted；　then　having
pounded；　apply　as　a　tepid　cataplasm；　but　mix　also　flour　and　stir　it　up
with　white　wine　and　oil　in　a　tepid　state。　Another：…Having　pounded
the　seed　of　hemlock；　pour　on　it　a　fragrant　white　wine；　and　then
apply　in　a　tepid　state　as　a　cataplasm。

　　11。　But　if　it　be　inflamed；　having　boiled　in　water　the　root　of　me
ivy；　finely　powdered；　and　mixing　the　finest　flour；　and　stirring　it
up　with　white　wine；　apply　as　a　cataplasm；　and　mix　up　some　fat　with
these　things。　Another：…Take　the　root　of　the　mandrake；　especially　the
green　（fresh）　root；　but　otherwise　the　dried；　and　having　cleaned　the
green　root　and　cut　it　down；　boil　in　diluted　wine；　and　apply　as　a
cataplasm；　but　the　dry　may　be　pounded　and　applied　as　a　cataplasm　in
the　manner。　Another：…Having　bruised　the　inner　part　of　a　ripe
cucumber　to　a　soft　state；　apply　as　a　cataplasm。

　　12。　If　there　be　pain　without　inflammation；　having　roasted　red
natron；　and　pounded　it　to　a　fine　powder；　and　added　alum　and　roasted
salts；　finely　triturated；　mix　together　in　equal　proportions；　then
having　mixed　it　up　with　the　best　pitch　and　spread　upon　a　rag；　apply；
and　bind。　Another：…Having　pounded　the　green　leaves　of　capers；　put　into
a　bag　and　bind　on　the　part；　and　when　it　appears　to　burn；　take　it
away　and　apply　it　afterward；　or；　if　you　have　not　the　leaves　of　capers；
pound　the　rind　of　its　roots；　and　having　mixed　it　up　with
dark…colored　wine；　bind　on　the　part　in　the　same　manner。　This　is　a　good
application　also　for　pains　of　the　spleen。　Of　these　poultices；　those
which　are　cooling；　stop　the　discharge；　those　which　are　emollient　and
heating；　discuss；　and　those　which　are　attractive；　dry　up　and
attenuate。　This　disease　is　formed　when　bile　and　phlegm　become　seated
in　the　parts。　When　the　anus　is　inflamed；　it　should　be　anointed　with
the　ointment；　the　ingredients　of　which　are　resin；　oil；　wax；
plumbago；　and　suet；　these　being　all　melted　and　applied　quite　hot　as
a　cataplasm。
