Rh  that eyther the Ore or mans vrine ſet in like manner (as aboue ſaide) by the mouths of the hyues, doth alſo recouer the diſeaſed Bees. Nowe all theſe, and ſuche like muſte the keeper of the Bees doe, whiche is both a ſober and chaſte, and feedeth not vppon ſowre or tarte meates, nor filthy or ſtrong of ſauour, nor any ſalt meates.

HETHe [sic] Bees for that they muche abhorre all filthye ſtinkes and ſmells, PalladusPalladius [sic] willeth the keeper of them to eſchewe dilligently al ſtrong and yll ſinelling ſauoures, one alſo that delighteth to be chaſte of body, and free from filthineſſe, among theſe not breathing ſowrely, or of a ſtinking breath, not ſweatin, nor ſauouring of ſweat, not one beſides of wicked conditions, or ſuche a perſon as ſtanding among the flight of the Bees, doth not earneſtly moue and procure them to fly to him, or as one ſtinged endeuoreth to defēd himſelfe from them, but rather as a flatterer among his acquaintance, and children, hath learned to entreate, and pleaſe the Bees by a more gently manner. He alſo whiche mindeth to haue alſo in a readineſſe the hiues vnto his vſe, in which he may receiue forthwith the rude youth of the ſwarmes put forth, which if they be not diligently preferred, they flye quite awaye at the full heate of Sunne. But how theſe hiues ought aptly to be prepared, ſhall hereafter bee taught in the ſixteenth Chapiter.

If the DorreDrone [sic] Bees, or Bees without ſting, be ouer manye in the Hiue, and that you woulde gladly ridde them forth, them do on this manner: firſt take and plucke off the wings of one of thoſe DorreDrone [sic] Bees, which lay or put within the Hiue, and incontinent the Honny Bees eſpying the ſame, will fal vppon the other DorreDrone [sic] Bees, and both kill and driue them quite away.
