i_o think_v it_o necessary_a to_o say_v something_o of_o it_o therefore_o take_v notice_n that_o some_o that_o have_v write_v of_o it_o do_v mu●ter_v up_o as_o many_o virtue_n pertain_v to_o it_o as_o can_v be_v mention_v which_o be_v a_o common_a fault_n in_o herbalist_n to_o ascribe_v more_o praise_n by_o much_o then_o be_v due_a to_o every_o herb_n but_o this_o be_v certain_a tobacco_n be_v a_o

very_o balsamaical_a now_o as_o use_v by_o smoke_v in_o a_o pipe_n it_o be_v very_o attractive_a of_o moist_a and_o crude_a humour_n as_o water_n and_o phlegm_n cut_v of_o the_o head_n and_o stomach_n and_o so_o it_o make_v a_o pump_n of_o the_o mouth_n for_o the_o benefit_n of_o some_o and_o detriment_n to_o the_o health_n of_o other_o and_o that_o i_o may_v make_v some_o discovery_n for_o who_o it_o be_v good_a and_o for_o what_o i_o say_v it_o be_v chief_o proper_a for_o those_o that_o be_v of_o a_o phlegmatic_a constitution_n and_o those_o that_o abound_v with_o humidity_n as_o rheum_n catarrh_n distillation_n and_o hydropic_a person_n my_o reason_n be_v it_o be_v good_a for_o the_o phlegmatic_a because_o it_o be_v hot_a and_o dry_a and_o so_o resist_v the_o generation_n of_o phlegm_n as_o well_o exhaust_v it_o next_o it_o be_v good_a against_o rheum_n catarrh_n distillation_n because_o it_o draw_v forth_o by_o the_o mouth_n and_o so_o prevent_v the_o distil_a upon_o the_o

and_o bring_v the_o whole_a body_n into_o a_o consumption_n and_o death_n therefore_o whatsoever_o lead_v forth_o the_o distil_a humour_n prevent_v the_o great_a mischief_n it_o bring_v for_o who_o tobacco_n be_v not_o good_a first_o it_o be_v not_o good_a for_o those_o that_o be_v hot_a and_o dry_a choleric_a constitution_v yet_o if_o such_o have_v long_o accustom_v themselves_o to_o the_o take_v it_o it_o be_v not_o safe_a leave_v it_o of_o too_o hasty_o but_o by_o degree_n neither_o be_v it_o proper_a for_o sanguine_a people_n that_o be_v not_o trouble_v with_o rheum_n because_o it_o

which_o come_v with_o a_o burn_a oil_n with_o the_o smoke_n into_o the_o mouth_n and_o likewise_o it_o destroy_v the_o tooth_n from_o the_o frequent_a flux_n of_o rheum_n from_o the_o head_n to_o the_o tooth_n which_o may_v well_o be_v avoid_v by_o they_o for_o who_o it_o be_v not_o agreeable_a order_n in_o take_v tobacco_n some_o direction_n ought_v to_o be_v give_v as_o to_o the_o manner_n of_o use_v this_o drug_n as_o well_o as_o other_o as_o first_o for_o the_o phlegmatic_a for_o phlegmatic_a person_n it_o be_v best_o for_o they_o to_o take_v it_o ordinary_o after_o meat_n especial_o
