Now onto cures for various ailments derived from living animals. It's interesting to think that it would be nearly impossible to even obtain the ingredients he mentions, and even less possible to actually consume them. Where am I going to get weasel brains in this day and age, Amazon?

Now we're on to animal cures. Does anyone have any ass testicles I can have? I'd say 'borrow' but you won't want 'em back after I've cured myself with them.

So much herb lore. Will it ever stop?
One interesting thing is that he mentions cinnamon in one part. I didn't know the Romans had cinnamon. How did they get it? It comes from Thailand, I thought, and while bak then it wasn't even Thailand, I thought it would've been far out of the Romans' reach.
