I notice many times the verb "oignez". It means "anoint", in english.
Anoint = to smear or rub with oil.
- FYI, the "z" shape in "oignez" is a rotated-m not a "z". It looks like "z" but it's a general-purpose abbreviation (it can mean many things, but it is often m, em, sometimes r, etc.).
- Macrons (apostrophes) are not always used. For example, "herbe" is sometimes spelled "hbe" without macrons.
- Notice that "manger" (to eat) is spelled "mangier". I have suggested in the past that "mallier" on VMS You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. might be a Frenchized version of germanic "to paint" but no one seemed to like that idea. But in this fragment, manger is clearly spelled "mangier" with the extra "i" (Old French).
- It uses a very old word for eyes (eulx) (pour estlartir eulx me le jus de la loine...)
It says mint is a very good (efficacious) herb for "lestomatis" but I don't know what "lestomatis/lestomater" is supposed to be. I don't recognize the word, but I assume it's some kind of malady.
Douloir (pain/discomfort/suffering) is spelled without the "u" (Item pour le doloir de oroille marsthier la mentum...). I'm not sure what marsthier (verb) is. Maybe "to mash" or something like that?
It says mint is good for swollen nipples (tetines). Some of the text is faint here, but it looks like they might also be recommending rue ("rute") for lactation, but I'm not sure it means rue in this context.
