Crumbs of Wisdom

Wulfiic of Creigull

More from the Medical School of Salernum, translated by Sir John Harington

Panis non calidus, nee sit nimis inveteratus,
SedJermentatus, oculatus sit, bene coctus,
Modice salitus, frugibus validis sit electus.
Non comedas crustam, choleram quia gignit adustam.
Panis salsatus, fermentatus, bene coctus,
Purus sit sanus, quia non ita sit tivi vanus.
Est caro porcina sine vino pejor ovi . na:
Si tribuis vina, tune est cibus et medicina.
Ilia porcorum bona sunt, niala sunt reliquorum.
Eate not your bread too stale, nor eate it hot,
A little Levend, hollow bak't and light: Not fresh of purest graine that can be got.
The crust breeds choller both of browne & white,
Yet let it be well bak't or eate it not,
How e're your taste therein may take delight.
Porke without wine, is not so good to eate
As Sheepe with wine, it medicine is and meate
Tho Intrailes of a beast be not the best,
Yet are some intrailes better that the rest.
