IF any are infected, give audience a while, Such Physick Ile teach you, shal make you to smile, It is wholsome and toothsome, and free from all guile, Which shall breed good blood, and bad humors exile. Although it may seeme most strange, Yet this is most true and strange. If any man be troubled with uncomely long hayre, Which on his fooles forehead unseemly doth stare, I have a medicine will cure him, to prove it I dare, Let him take a Razor and shave his head bare, And he shall be cured most strange, O this is a wonderfull change. If any be troubled with an idle drousie head, Whose chiefest delight is to sleepe in his bed, With glutting his stomack this folly first bred, Let him fall to his worke, and be slenderly fed, And he shall be cured most strange, O this is most true and strange. If any man be troubled with a very shallow brayne, Whose giddy apprehension can no wisedom attaine, If he will be eased of this kinde of paine, Strong Beere and hot waters then let him refraine, And he shall be cured most strange, O this is most true and strange.
If any man be troubled with a fiery hot nose, Which in midst of cold winter is as red as a Rose, It proceeds from drinking old Sack, I suppose, Small Beere and fayre water, let him drink none but those. And he shall be cured most strange, O this is most true and strange. If any man be troubled with outragious teeth, Which eat up his riches, and make him play the theef, If he will be cured of this kinde of griefe, Let him sow up his lips, and he shall finde releese, And this is a cure most strange, O this is most true and strange. If a woman be troubled with a tatling tongue, Whose too much vaine babling her neighbours doth wrong I judge for her mouth its something too long, Therefore she must cut short while she is yong, And she shall be cured most strange, O this is most true and strange. If a man have light fingers that he cannot charme, Which will pick mens pockets, and do such like harm, He must be let bloud, in a scarfe beare his arme, And drink the herbe Grace in a possit luke warme, And he shall be cured most strange, O this is most true and strange.
<seg n="1" rend="left"><hi rend="italic">The second part. To the same tune.</hi></seg>
IF a man with false dealing hath infected his breast, Or hath no good motion in his bosome possest, Two handfull of honesty he must eat at the least, And hate all vaine glory, and falshood detest, And he shall be cured most strange, O this is most true and strange. If any mayd be sick of the sullen disease, Or grown out of temper that none can her please, She must be kept fasting the space of three dayes, And no man speak to her whatsoever she sayes, And she shall be cured most strange, O this is most true and strange. If any man be troubled with a false hollow heart, To cure such a fellow exceedeth my Art, But yet my good counsell to him Ile impart, Let him take heed he rides not to Tyburn in a Cart, For then heele be cured most strange, O this is most true and strange. If a mayd be infected with the falling away, Which proceeds from a longing desire some say, If she will be preserved and kept from decay, She must get her a husband without all delay, And she shall be cured most strange, O this is most true and strange. If a man have an ach in his bones at any tide, That to do any labour he cannot abide, With the oyle of old Holly annoynt well his side, And he shall be cured, this thing hath been tride, And it is a cure most strange, O this is most true and strange.
If a man have a conscience that doth him torment, If it be for sinne, then let him repent, He must be right sorry for the time he mispent, And drink brinish teares when his heart doth relent, And he shall be cured most strange, O this is most true and strange. If any mans knees are grown stiffe and so sore, That he cannot kneele downe to pray any more, His heart is right stony, it is fitting therefore He get grace and mercy heavens name to adore, And he shall be cured most strange, O this is most true and strange. If a man be troubled with exceeding light toes, Which will run to the Alehouse in spight of his nose, If he spend all his mony his credit to lose, He shall in close prison be cast by his foes, And then heele be cured most strange, O this is most true and strange. Now you that reap profit by the fruit of my quill, Give thanks to the Doctor that taught you this skill, For sure he deserveth praise for his good will, That taught you this Physick your minds to fulfill, For this is a thing most strange, O this is most true and strange.
