therefore_o to_o speak_v more_o true_o and_o proper_o if_o we_o will_v give_v they_o name_n according_a to_o their_o nature_n than_o the_o white_a hellebore_n shall_v be_v call_v the_o young_a and_o the_o black_a hellebore_n shall_v be_v call_v the_o elder_a for_o howbeit_o these_o two_o be_v the_o same_o kind_n of_o herb_n yet_o in_o this_o they_o differ_v that_o the_o young_a hellebore_n shall_v be_v give_v only_o to_o young_a people_n till_o they_o come_v to_o be_v of_o fifty_o year_n of_o age_n the_o elder_a hellebore_n be_v to_o be_v use_v only_o by_o those_o who_o exceed_v fifty_o

they_o be_v true_o male_a and_o female_a but_o by_o this_o difference_n the_o physician_n be_v to_o understand_v that_o the_o one_o kind_n shall_v be_v give_v only_o to_o young_a people_n and_o the_o other_o to_o old_a indeed_o it_o be_v a_o exceed_o great_a oversight_n in_o physician_n that_o they_o have_v never_o take_v notice_n of_o this_o that_o nature_n have_v build_v two_o shop_n the_o one_o for_o young_a people_n the_o other_o for_o old_a so_o that_o the_o same_o medicine_n and_o method_n of_o cure_v be_v not_o for_o young_a people_n which_o be_v for_o old_a it_o be_v very_o inconvenient_a that_o those_o who_o be_v old_a shall_v use_v the_o medicine_n which_o be_v fit_a only_o for_o young_a people_n or_o that_o those_o who_o be_v young_a shall_v use_v those_o medicine_n which_o be_v most_o agreeable_a with_o the_o constitution_n of_o old_a people_n to_o explain_v this_o further_a by_o a_o example_n of_o the_o moon_n which_o be_v every_o month_n renew_v the_o increase_n of_o the_o moon_n from_o new_a moon_n to_o full_a moon_n may_v be_v compare_v to_o the_o age_n of_o young_a people_n and_o the_o decrease_n of_o the_o moon_n from_o the_o full_a moon_n to_o the_o new_a moon_n be_v like_o old_a age_n so_o that_o in_o those_o change_n of_o the_o moon_n be_v well_o represent_v unto_o we_o the_o several_a age_n of_o man_n and_o as_o the_o moon_n have_v not_o the_o same_o quality_n in_o the_o increase_n which_o she_o have_v in_o the_o decrease_n so_o there_o be_v a_o great_a difference_n betwixt_o old_a and_o young_a people_n therefore_o it_o concern_v every_o physician_n to_o search_v thorough_o into_o the_o nature_n and_o condition_n of_o the_o moon_n and_o so_o he_o may_v know_v the_o age_n of_o a_o man_n of_o what_o kind_n it_o be_v which_o be_v to_o be_v learn_v by_o the_o moon_n she_o be_v the_o true_a and_o genuine_a book_n and_o not_o that_o which_o be_v write_v with_o ink_n so_o that_o one_o kind_n of_o the_o same_o herb_n shall_v be_v

elder_n that_o you_o may_v better_o understand_v this_o observe_v that_o as_o of_o every_o thing_n there_o be_v two_o sort_n which_o be_v as_o two_o part_n of_o one_o whole_a thing_n so_o there_o be_v two_o kind_n of_o hellebore_n the_o elder_n and_o young_a the_o elder_a hellebore_n what_o good_a can_v it_o do_v to_o young_a people_n and_o how_o unfit_a be_v the_o young_a hellibore_n for_o old_a people_n but_o have_v both_o kind_n we_o have_v a_o complete_a medicine_n for_o old_a and_o young_a viz._n the_o young_a for_o young_a people_n etc._n etc._n but_o see_v youth_n and_o old_a age_n can_v consist_v together_o even_o as_o the_o moon_n can_v be_v both_o old_a and_o young_a at_o the_o same_o time_n therefore_o god_n have_v divide_v this_o medicine_n into_o two_o part_n according_a to_o these_o two_o age_n and_o these_o part_n be_v not_o tie_v to_o one_o another_o in_o their_o operation_n they_o do_v their_o work_n the_o one_o without_o the_o other_o again_o we_o must_v observe_v the_o difference_n of_o disease_n in_o old_a age_n and_o in_o young_a a_o apoplexy_n be_v of_o one_o nature_n in_o young_a people_n and_o of_o another_o in_o old_a and_o therefore_o there_o must_v be_v one_o medicine_n use_v for_o this_o disease_n in_o those_o who_o be_v young_a and_o another_o for_o the_o same_o disease_n in_o those_o who_o be_v old_a now_o in_o the_o two_o hellebores_n there_o be_v a_o perfect_a cure_n of_o the_o apoplexy_n be_v use_v for_o the_o age_n to_o which_o they_o be_v proper_a so_o the_o gout_n be_v of_o two_o kind_n there_o be_v elder_a and_o young_a

a_o end_n of_o this_o subject_n know_v this_o that_o in_o the_o fat_a and_o flesh_n of_o a_o serpent_n there_o be_v a_o singular_a faculty_n of_o heal_v both_o new_a wound_n and_o all_o venomous_a

there_o be_v also_o some_o preservative_n which_o if_o use_v will_v keep_v we_o from_o the_o hurt_n of_o any_o venomous_a creature_n but_o we_o need_v not_o much_o fear_n this_o kind_n of_o serpent_n of_o which_o we_o speak_v in_o this_o treatise_n which_o be_v by_o nature_n less_o hurtful_a than_o any_o other_o kind_n of_o serpent_n but_o we_o must_v be_v very_o cautious_a of_o starry_a serpent_n
