Bald’s Leechbook (also known as Medicinale Anglicum) circa 9th Century AD | |
STAY GOLD Offer Upgrade User ID: 74714823 United States 03/22/2020 11:49 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [link to en.wikipedia.org (secure)] Bald's Leechbook (also known as Medicinale Anglicum) is an Old English medical text probably compiled in the ninth century, possibly under the influence of Alfred the Great's educational reforms. I’ll bet the cures in this book abolishes more than meets the eye. Anybody have any info or expertise in this book? “Nature’s first green is gold, Her hardest hue to hold. Her early leaf’s a flower; But only so an hour. Then leaf subsides to leaf. So Eden sank to grief, So dawn goes down to day. Nothing gold can stay.” —Robert Frost October 1923 |
