On the Surgery Perseus (Hippocrates, The Genuine Works of Hippocrates, Vol. 2. Adams, Francis, translator. New York: William Wood and Company, 1886.) — 10 focus

[10] The bandages should be clean, light, soft, and thin. One should practice rolling with both hands together, and with either separately. One should also choose a suitable one, according to the breadth and thickness of the parts. The heads of the bandages should be hard, smooth, and neatly put on. That sort of bandaging is the worst which quickly falls off; but those are bad bandages which neither compress nor yet come off.
