therein_o at_o a_o time_n beside_o this_o he_o must_v take_v special_a care_n not_o to_o go_v into_o the_o bath_n without_o fit_a preparation_n which_o be_v a_o gross_a error_n of_o many_o but_o

many_o receive_v little_a benefit_n by_o the_o bath_n but_o oftentimes_o much_o hurt_v and_o that_o be_v because_o they_o take_v not_o the_o aid_n and_o direction_n of_o a_o physician_n present_a in_o the_o use_n of_o the_o bath_n but_o bring_v their_o physic_n and_o direction_n with_o they_o from_o some_o physician_n in_o the_o country_n where_o they_o abide_v perhaps_o one_o that_o well_o

physician_n yet_o i_o must_v tell_v they_o that_o many_o accidence_n fall_v out_o oftentimes_o in_o bathe_v that_o require_v the_o help_n of_o a_o present_a physician_n another_o special_a reason_n why_o many_o find_v little_a good_a by_o the_o bath_n be_v because_o they_o make_v not_o such_o stay_n at_o they_o as_o in_o regard_n of_o their_o infirmity_n or_o state_n of_o body_n be_v meet_v for_o some_o go_v away_o before_o the_o bath_n in_o regard_n of_o a_o dense_a habit_n of_o body_n have_v wrought_v any_o manner_n of_o effect_n at_o all_o on_o they_o other_o even_o then_o when_o the_o bath_n begin_v to_o show_v its_o force_n and_o efficacy_n on_o their_o body_n and_o some_o too_o soon_o upon_o much_o benefit_n receive_v by_o mean_n whereof_o they_o easy_o incur_v a_o

advise_v and_o rule_v by_o your_o physician_n when_o you_o be_v at_o the_o bath_n according_a as_o he_o shall_v find_v to_o be_v meet_a for_o your_o infirmity_n and_o state_n of_o body_n and_o think_v not_o to_o receive_v in_o four_o five_o or_o six_o week_n a_o absolute_a cure_n for_o a_o infirmity_n which_o perhaps_o you_o have_v bear_v two_o or_o three_o year_n notwithstanding_o all_o the_o help_n and_o mean_v you_o have_v use_v for_o the_o same_o in_o your_o own_o country_n wherefore_o let_v your_o abode_n at_o the_o bath_n be_v as_o it_o shall_v be_v requisite_a for_o your_o state_n of_o body_n and_o limit_v not_o the_o time_n no_o not_o to_o a_o spring_n or_o a_o fall_n for_o it_o may_v be_v needful_a for_o you_o to_o reside_v there_o the_o whole_a year_n it_o may_v be_v more_o for_o otherwise_o by_o your_o untimely_a departure_n you_o may_v lose_v the_o good_a that_o you_o have_v get_v by_o the_o bath_n before_o the_o time_n come_v that_o you_o shall_v think_v to_o be_v

a_o cold_a and_o moist_a cause_n for_o so_o you_o must_v conceive_v i_o then_o in_o the_o spring_n or_o fall_v when_o oftentimes_o the_o coldness_n and_o variableness_n of_o the_o air_n take_v away_o the_o benefit_n of_o your_o bathe_n for_o cold_a or_o vaporous_a air_n enter_v into_o your_o body_n after_o bathe_v the_o pore_n be_v open_a do_v not_o only_o very_o great_o annoy_v the_o spirit_n

they_o that_o be_v in_o the_o way_n of_o cure_n by_o reason_n of_o their_o former_a bathe_n and_o that_o the_o water_n be_v in_o their_o nature_n as_o effectual_o hot_a in_o the_o winter_n as_o in_o any_o other_o time_n of_o the_o year_n only_o the_o superficies_n or_o upper_a part_n
of_o the_o bath_n be_v cool_v by_o the_o wind_n but_o in_o the_o winter_n there_o be_v some_o calm_a day_n in_o which_o the_o disease_a body_n lie_v near_o to_o the_o bath_n may_v well_o and_o safe_o

but_o for_o his_o health_n and_o here_o i_o can_v but_o reprehend_v the_o error_n of_o most_o people_n that_o at_o the_o end_n of_o may_v depart_v from_o our_o bath_n and_o after_o that_o month_n i_o know_v not_o out_o of_o what_o prejudicate_a opinion_n altogether_o refrain_v to_o come_v to_o they_o till_o the_o fall_n perhaps_o they_o do_v this_o suppose_v that_o after_o the_o spring_n till_o the_o fall_v come_v again_o the_o bath_n lose_v their_o virtue_n i_o must_v tell_v they_o if_o this_o be_v their_o conceit_n that_o they_o be_v in_o a_o great_a error_n for_o the_o water_n lose_v

have_v you_o to_o know_v and_o as_o i_o have_v aforeshewed_n that_o our_o bath_n may_v as_o profitable_o be_v use_v in_o summer_n as_o in_o the_o spring_n and_o most_o common_o with_o far_o better_a success_n in_o the_o whole_a month_n of_o june_n then_o in_o any_o of_o the_o former_a month_n and_o that_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o constant_a temperature_n of_o this_o month_n and_o the_o variable_a disposition_n of_o the_o month_n precede_v i_o be_o persuade_v that_o this_o untimely_a go_v from_o the_o bath_n at_o the_o very_a approach_n of_o summer_n hurt_v many_o and_o overthrow_v the_o good_a they_o have_v receive_v by_o they_o wherefore_o my_o advertisement_n herein_o be_v this_o that_o they_o which_o resort_n to_o the_o bath_n for_o prevention_n of_o sickness_n or_o such_o hereditary_a

the_o spring_n infer_v upon_o the_o ensue_a question_n the_o spring_n be_v the_o most_o reviue_a flourish_a and_o temperate_a season_n of_o the_o year_n whence_o be_v it_o that_o sickness_n be_v more_o frequent_a in_o the_o same_o and_o people_n soon_o die_v therein_o then_o in_o any_o other_o season_n there_o may_v be_v two_o reason_n yield_v for_o the_o same_o the_o one_o take_v from_o the_o winter_n precede_v which_o by_o reason_n of_o its_o moisture_n fill_v the_o body_n with_o crude_a and_o excremental_a humour_n and_o by_o its_o coldness_n thicken_a and_o compact_v the_o same_o quiet_v they_o from_o fluxion_n but_o the_o heat_n of_o the_o spring_n approach_v and_o work_v on_o those_o humour_n rarifi_v and_o dissolve_v they_o which_o thereupon_o fluctuate_a and_o putrify_v in_o the_o body_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o sickness_n unless_o they_o be_v expulse_v by_o the_o force_n of_o nature_n or_o timely_a help_n of_o physic_n the_o other_o reason_n may_v be_v take_v from_o the_o inconstancy_n of_o the_o spring_n itself_o which_o sometime_o be_v cold_a sometime_o hot_a sometime_o moist_a and_o sometime_o dry_a which_o sudden_a alteration_n can_v but_o produce_v feverous_a distemperature_n and_o other_o infirmity_n according_a to_o the_o disposition_n of_o the_o matter_n congest_v in_o the_o body_n the_o winter_n precede_v from_o which_o it_o may_v be_v conclude_v that_o the_o sickness_n and_o death_n of_o people_n which_o happen_v more_o frequent_o in_o the_o spring_n then_o in_o any_o other_o season_n of_o the_o year_n be_v not_o so_o much_o to_o be_v attribute_v to_o the_o spring_n as_o to_o the_o winter_n which_o have_v fill_v the_o body_n with_o superfluity_n and_o prepare_v it_o for_o sickness_n wherefore_o whosoever_o will_v be_v so_o

the_o year_n so_o as_o he_o err_v not_o overmuch_o in_o other_o thing_n and_o this_o purge_n of_o the_o body_n and_o purify_n of_o the_o blood_n in_o the_o spring_n will_v not_o only_o preserve_v from_o sickness_n that_o common_o reign_v in_o the_o spring_n but_o also_o be_v a_o mean_n to_o keep_v the_o body_n in_o a_o perfect_a integrity_n the_o whole_a year_n after_o and_o therefore_o i_o commend_v the_o take_n of_o physic_n in_o the_o spring_n to_o all_o generous_a people_n to_o they_o that_o lead_v a_o genial_a sedentary_a kind_n of_o life_n especial_o to_o such_o as_o be_v subject_a to_o obstruction_n or_o any_o yearly_a disease_n you_o may_v here_o demand_v of_o i_o physic_n what_o time_n of_o the_o spring_n be_v fit_a for_o physic_n by_o way_n of_o prevention_n i_o answer_v that_o for_o they_o that_o be_v wont_a to_o be_v affect_v with_o sickness_n in_o the_o spring_n and_o who_o humour_n be_v too_o choleric_a and_o thin_a and_o consequent_o subject_a to_o fluxion_n it_o

not_o springlike_a you_o may_v also_o here_o demand_v of_o i_o spring_n whether_o it_o be_v not_o so_o necessary_a to_o take_v physic_n in_o the_o autumn_n which_o we_o common_o call_v the_o fall_n as_o in_o the_o spring_n whereunto_o in_o regard_n of_o a_o generality_n i_o must_v answer_v no_o because_o the_o summer_n prepare_v not_o the_o body_n for_o sickness_n fill_v it_o with_o superfluity_n as_o do_v the_o winter_n yet_o for_o some_o body_n it_o be_v as_o for_o they_o that_o natural_o abound_v with_o crude_a and_o phlegmatic_a humour_n that_o be_v subject_a to_o obstruction_n to_o cold_a winterly_a disease_n or_o any_o melancholic_a affect_n as_o necessary_a to_o take_v physic_n by_o way_n of_o prevention_n in_o the_o fall_n as_o in_o the_o spring_n and_o that_o for_o avoid_v the_o superfluity_n before_o the_o winter_n for_o open_v the_o obstruction_n and_o free_v the_o body_n of_o superfluous_a melancholy_n which_o then_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o season_n increase_v and_o the_o fit_a time_n for_o the_o do_v thereof_o for_o such_o as_o be_v subject_a to_o melancholy_n and_o autumnal_a disease_n be_v soon_o after_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o
