So she bawled out to Boots: 'Come hither, come hither, my pretty son, and let me comb your hair. 'Don't you wish you may catch me', said Boots. 'Don't you wish you may catch me', as he ran along, leaping and jumping, and holding on by one of the foal's tails.
"Avicenna, after this, is for having the part anointed with the syrup of hellebore, using proper evacuations and purges and I believe rightly.
