Abstract:
"A wretched, broken-kneed horse, the legs tied up by five ropes round neck and fetlock or pastern, is violently maltreated by three men. One raises an axe to smite the bleeding neck, another applies a red-hot iron to a sore on the back, the third saws at a hind-leg. These operations are respectively: 'How to cure the Poll-Evil', 'How to heal a sore Back', 'How to cure a Quittors.'"--British Museum online catalogue
