With some other remarkable remedies for other diseases worthy to bee noted. Published by N.H. of Dorchester, in the county of Dorset for the good of those that desire their health. Try and trust. Try man as the instrument, but trust God as the helper.	N. H.	1658 (1658)	Wing H100A; ESTC R215851	7,379	24

may_v seem_v to_o follow_v by_o reason_n of_o the_o suddenness_n of_o the_o cure_n or_o any_o costiveness_n which_o i_o know_v will_v be_v object_v and_o fear_v by_o many_o and_o although_o the_o thing_n prescribe_v for_o the_o cure_n of_o this_o disease_n be_v mean_a and_o common_a yet_o think_v not_o mean_o of_o those_o weak_a mean_n which_o may_v through_o the_o blessing_n of_o god_n

i_o have_v find_v for_o many_o year_n since_o that_o those_o person_n which_o have_v accustom_v themselves_o to_o physic_n bare_o and_o nothing_o else_o have_v for_o the_o most_o part_n of_o they_o die_v though_o some_o have_v linger_v a_o long_a time_n in_o it_o to_o wit_n two_o or_o three_o month_n and_o during_o that_o time_n they_o have_v be_v in_o extreme_a torment_n by_o reason_n of_o those_o contrary_a humour_n and_o inward_a gripe_n of_o the_o gut_n which_o have_v bring_v they_o to_o a_o consumption_n of_o the_o whole_a and_o so_o have_v finish_v their_o end_n in_o such_o

as_o i_o suppose_v be_v because_o most_o physician_n have_v not_o be_v acquaint_v with_o this_o disease_n in_o this_o nation_n though_o it_o be_v common_a in_o ireland_n and_o as_o i_o have_v hear_v
