Noble friends,

Lady Bethoc ingen Alpin called my attention (thank you m'lady) to the
online promotional pages for an exhibition of early medical texts:
https://www.cam.ac.uk/stories/Curious-Cures-Exhibition .

The web page is a sampler, richly endowed with period illustrations, as
well as some fascinating examples of cures -- weasel testicles as a remedy
for female infertility. If that doesn't spark your interest, I don't know
what else will.

Doubtful that many readers will pack up and jet over to England just for
this exhibit, but you all can at least enjoy the web site.

Yours Aye,

Mungo Napier, Laird of Mallard Lodge  🦆
Continuing a crusade to keep the original Merry Rose relevant and in
business.
