of_o the_o meat_n be_v a_o matter_n of_o so_o great_a moment_n for_o the_o preservation_n of_o health_n i_o counsel_v all_o such_o as_o be_v true_o respective_a of_o the_o same_o that_o they_o oppressenot_v their_o stomach_n with_o untimely_a or_o immoderate_a eat_n and_o before_o all_o thing_n that_o they_o eschew_v and_o abhor_v a_o fastidious_a saturitie_n as_o a_o thing_n most_o injurious_a to_o nature_n and_o pernicious_a to_o the_o health_n of_o the_o body_n whether_o it_o be_v good_a to_o provoke_v with_o sauce_n a_o appetite_n to_o meat_n the_o stomach_n be_v well_o and_o natural_o affect_v ianswer_v that_o it_o be_v better_a to_o fast_o and_o expect_v that_o hunger_n may_v excite_v a_o appetite_n then_o to_o irritate_fw-la the_o same_o with_o sauce_n for_o to_o a_o man_n live_v wise_o and_o sober_o salt_n with_o hunger_n be_v the_o best_a and_o wholsome_a sauce_n but_o when_o hunger_n in_o gluttonous_a person_n excite_v not_o the_o appetite_n than_o the_o cook_n be_v put_v to_o his_o shift_n by_o strange_a mixture_n of_o thing_n to_o consect_n a_o sauce_n which_o may_v repair_v the_o pallate_n please_v the_o throat_n and_o excite_v the_o appetite_n and_o from_o hence_o not_o simple_a disease_n do_v spring_v up_o but_o inexplicable_a and_o multiforme_a exceed_v oftentimes_o the_o art_n of_o physician_n for_o i_o will_v have_v they_o to_o know_v that_o dolorous_a gout_n gravedinie_n of_o the_o head_n caliginousnes_n of_o the_o eye_n torture_n and_o dissolution_n of_o the_o limb_n tremble_v of_o the_o hand_n and_o many_o worse_a misery_n than_o these_o be_v not_o apt_a to_o be_v breed_v by_o parsimony_n and_o a_o philosophical_a diet_n but_o by_o a_o abundant_a plenitude_n occasion_v by_o luxurious_a excess_n wherefore_o my_o counsel_n be_v that_o meat_n expect_v a_o appetite_n and_o that_o the_o stomach_n be_v by_o no_o mean_n untimely_o alliciate_v unto_o meat_n for_o as_o i_o have_v say_v in_o the_o former_a question_n it_o be_v the_o hurtfull_a thing_n to_o the_o body_n to_o ing_a meat_n upon_o meat_n undigested_a but_o if_o the_o stomach_n be_v ill_o affect_v as_o when_o it_o be_v by_o any_o distemperature_n or_o debility_n derect_v i_o then_o aucrre_o that_o it_o be_v lawful_a yea_o very_a expedient_a to_o excite_v a_o appetite_n with_o convenient_a sauce_n so_o as_o it_o be_v do_v with_o this_o caution_n that_o the_o stomach_n be_v not_o by_o they_o stir_v up_o to_o the_o take_n of_o more_o meat_n than_o it_o can_v well_o digest_v and_o here_o i_o will_v have_v such_o also_o as_o be_v healthy_a to_o know_v that_o i_o do_v not_o so_o strait_o restrain_v they_o from_o the_o use_n of_o sauce_n neither_o that_o i_o be_o against_o sauce_n so_o morose_v for_o although_o they_o allure_v we_o to_o inordinate_a and_o immoderate_a eat_n yet_o the_o fault_n be_v rather_o to_o be_v attribute_v to_o our_o imprudencie_n and_o intemperancy_n then_o to_o the_o sauce_n as_o that_o i_o do_v altogether_o deny_v they_o to_o such_o as_o have_v sound_a stomach_n and_o appetite_n natural_o good_a but_o affirm_v rather_o that_o some_o simple_a sauce_n abandon_v all_o strange_a and_o disorder_a mixture_n according_a as_o the_o temperature_n or_o state_n of_o the_o stomach_n nature_n of_o the_o meat_n and_o time_n of_o year_n shall_v require_v so_o that_o they_o be_v sober_o and_o not_o untimely_a or_o gluttonous_o use_v may_v sometime_o be_v allow_v and_o that_o profitable_o not_o only_o to_o such_o as_o have_v weak_a and_o foeble_o stomach_n but_o also_o to_o they_o that_o have_v both_o stomach_n and_o appetite_n healthful_a and_o firm_a enough_o for_o they_o cause_v the_o meat_n to_o be_v take_v with_o great_a delight_n and_o such_o as_o be_v eat_v with_o delight_n be_v common_o best_o concoct_v of_o which_o sort_n be_v first_o as_o most_o common_a vinegar_n verjuice_n and_o mustard_n next_o orange_n and_o limmons_n and_o then_o caper_n and_o sampire_n for_o these_o two_o last_o because_o they_o have_v great_a force_n to_o excite_v the_o appetite_n then_o to_o nourish_v be_v also_o rank_v among_o the_o sauce_n and_o all_o these_o be_v not_o only_o good_a for_o exciting_a the_o appetite_n but_o oftentimes_o also_o very_o profitable_a for_o the_o stomach_n itself_o and_o other_o part_n for_o vinegar_n attenuate_v and_o cut_v gross_a humour_n in_o the_o stomach_n and_o repress_v choler_n mustard_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o heat_n extenuate_a and_o resolve_v faculty_n that_o it_o have_v be_v very_o good_a for_o a_o cold_a stomach_n and_o bteast_n which_o common_o be_v stuff_v with_o crude_a and_o phlegmatic_a humour_n verjuice_n and_o the_o juice_n of_o orange_n and_o limmons_n be_v exceed_v profitable_a for_o a_o hot_a stomach_n and_o liver_n and_o therefore_o very_o wholesome_a for_o hot_a and_o choleric_a body_n caper_n be_v very_o beneficial_a to_o the_o spleen_n and_o sampire_n to_o the_o kidney_n at_o what_o time_n therefore_o it_o shall_v please_v
