Who hath thervnto necessarily annexed. A table, as wel of the names of diseases and simples with their vertues, as also of all other termes of the arte opened. ... And in the ende a compendious worke of anatomie ... An historiall expostulation also against the beastly abusers, both of chyrurgerie and phisicke in our tyme: with a goodly doctrine, and instruction, necessary to be marked and folowed of all true chirurgie[n]s. All these faithfully gathered, and diligently set forth, by the sayde Iohn Halle.; Chirurgia parva.

well_o i_o beseech_v god_n that_o there_o may_v be_v some_o occasion_n give_fw-ge to_o procure_v a_o redress_n that_o none_o may_v work_v without_o knowledge_n join_v to_o experience_n which_o no_o

they_o have_v so_o good_a help_n to_o be_v diligent_a to_o learn_v and_o not_o to_o spare_v the_o very_o steal_v of_o cunning_n that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o they_o will_v be_v so_o vigilant_a as_o to_o obtain_v it_o although_o it_o be_v hide_v from_o they_o for_o true_o there_o be_v many_o that_o take_v servant_n and_o apprentice_n not_o for_o to_o teach_v they_o science_n but_o only_o to_o
