mention_v of_o all_o these_o thing_n where_o he_o speak_v of_o purgation_n but_o some_o perchance_o will_v say_v how_o then_o do_v not_o hypocrates_n council_n we_o to_o take_v away_o the_o blood_n for_o these_o cause_n above_o especify_v by_o my_o judgement_n he_o command_v they_o thus_o but_o in_o few_o word_n and_o that_o not_o without_o demonstration_n as_o he_o and_o all_o the_o ancient_n be_v accustom_a to_o do_v thou_o shall_v understand_v that_o it_o be_v so_o if_o that_o thou_o will_v read_v again_o his_o word_n that_o be_v these_o in_o every_o fresh_a wound_n except_o it_o be_v in_o the_o belly_n it_o be_v expedient_a to_o let_v blood_n flow_v out_o of_o it_o more_o or_o less_o for_o by_o that_o mean_v the_o wound_n shall_v be_v less_o grievous_a the_o inflammation_n less_o and_o all_o the_o place_n about_o it_o but_o if_o thou_o shall_v remember_v hereafter_o those_o word_n that_o he_o write_v when_o he_o do_v entreat_v if_o ulcer_n and_o also_o those_o thing_n that_o he_o have_v propound_v in_o all_o his_o other_o book_n that_o be_v to_o say_v how_o that_o a_o physician_n ought_v to_o be_v a_o imitator_n and_o follower_n not_o only_o of_o nature_n but_o also_o of_o those_o thing_n which_o shall_v be_v profitable_a when_o they_o come_v to_o their_o natural_a state_n then_o thou_o shall_v plain_o understand_v the_o mind_n of_o hypocrates_n and_o also_o how_o that_o blood_n ought_v to_o be_v draw_v when_o wound_n be_v great_a but_o if_o out_o of_o such_o wound_n blood_n do_v not_o flow_v especial_o when_o as_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n most_o convenient_a than_o thou_o must_v add_v and_o supply_v those_o thing_n that_o be_v needful_a and_o necessary_a the_o matter_n that_o follow_v he_o conjoin_v it_o with_o that_o which_o be_v abovesayde_v also_o it_o be_v profitable_a that_o from_o inveterate_a ulcer_n blood_n do_v flow_v and_o also_o from_o the_o part_n which_o be_v about_o they_o but_o forasmuch_o as_o he_o have_v say_v before_o that_o blood_n shall_v flow_v from_o every_o green_a wound_n except_o that_o he_o make_v mention_v now_o of_o inveterate_a ulcer_n it_o will_v seem_v to_o some_o that_o he_o do_v entreat_v only_o of_o green_a and_o fresh_a wound_n therefore_o he_o do_v well_o add_v this_o that_o be_v to_o say_v how_o that_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n most_o meet_a to_o draw_v blood_n from_o inveterate_a ulcer_n wherefore_o now_o see_v that_o the_o doctrine_n which_o we_o have_v take_v of_o he_o be_v true_a and_o firm_a that_o be_v to_o say_v how_o a_o flux_n beginning_n at_o the_o contrary_a part_n aught_o to_o be_v draw_v

easy_a for_o we_o to_o conclude_v of_o the_o detraction_n of_o blood_n how_o that_o in_o the_o beginning_n it_o ought_v to_o be_v do_v in_o the_o part_n far_o of_o and_o then_o in_o the_o ulcerate_v part_n furthermore_o if_o you_o do_v add_v unto_o these_o which_o i_o have_v before_o speak_v how_o that_o hypocrates_n counsel_v to_o evacuate_v the_o superfluous_a humour_n and_o that_o detraction_n of_o blood_n ought_v to_o be_v use_v when_o it_o surmount_v and_o that_o a_o medicament_n ought_v to_o be_v give_v which_o have_v virtue_n to_o purge_v humour_n chollerike_a melancholic_a and_o

in_o as_o much_o as_o it_o be_v agreeable_a and_o utill_o for_o my_o purpose_n the_o seven_o chapter_n but_o the_o firm_a and_o perfect_a demonstration_n of_o this_o kind_n of_o indication_n which_o

you_o may_v minister_v unto_o it_o such_o medicine_n as_o mitigate_v and_o assuage_v the_o greek_n call_v they_o calasticke_a whereof_o we_o will_v plain_o and_o more_o at_o large_a declare_v hereafter_o at_o this_o present_a we_o will_v declare_v the_o indication_n which_o be_v take_v of_o the_o situation_n and_o figure_n of_o the_o part_n and_o then_o we_o will_v finish_v and_o

which_o medicine_n must_v be_v drunken_a at_o once_o but_o to_o he_o that_o have_v his_o throat_n ulcerate_v they_o must_v be_v minister_v at_o sundry_a time_n by_o little_a and_o little_a because_o of_o the_o pass_v which_o bring_v great_a utility_n to_o the_o ulcer_n neither_o they_o must_v be_v minister_v so_o &_o in_o such_o case_n as_o to_o he_o that_o have_v his_o ventricle_n ulcerate_v likewise_o we_o have_v declare_v by_o the_o situation_n and_o figure_n of_o the_o say_a part_n that_o such_o medicine_n ought_v to_o be_v make_v grosser_n and_o thick_a &_o more_o clammy_a than_o the_o other_o because_o that_o the_o throat_n be_v a_o passage_n of_o thing_n that_o be_v eat_v and_o drunken_a and_o for_o that_o cause_n remedy_n which_o may_v conjoin_v &_o clean_o on_o every_o

unto_o it_o likewise_o ulcer_n that_o be_v in_o the_o thick_a intestine_n have_v more_o need_n of_o medicine_n which_o be_v cast_v out_o by_o the_o fundament_n in_o asmuch_o as_o they_o be_v next_o unto_o it_o but_o the_o ulcer_n that_o be_v in_o the_o thin_a intestine_n because_o they_o be_v far_a from_o the_o fundament_n require_v both_o medicine_n that_o be_v to_o say_v those_o that_o be_v

to_o ulcer_n which_o be_v in_o the_o outward_a part_n the_o use_n of_o such_o medicament_n be_v
not_o hurtful_a as_o aerugo_n aes_fw-la vstum_fw-la aeris_fw-la squamma_fw-la cadmia_n pomphilix_n litarge_fw-fr &_o cerussa_fw-la yet_o they_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v minister_v to_o the_o ulcer_n of_o the_o inward_a part_n of_o who_o nature_n we_o have_v write_v in_o the_o book_n of_o temperament_n and_o in_o the_o book_n of_o simple_a medicine_n but_o if_o we_o go_v about_o to_o glutinate_v the_o ulcer_n and_o bring_v it_o to_o a_o ciccatrise_n we_o must_v choose_v glutinative_a medicine_n &_o such_o as_o will_v not_o cause_v erosion_n but_o if_o we_o will_v cleanse_v the_o ulcer_n we_o must_v use_v thing_n abstersive_a and_o such_o as_o will_v absterge_n it_o moderate_o as_o raw_a honey_n which_o of_o all_o thing_n for_o this_o purpose_n be_v the_o chief_a but_o as_o touch_v

when_o the_o affect_a part_n which_o shall_v be_v cure_v by_o those_o be_v hide_v in_o the_o depth_n and_o profundity_n of_o the_o body_n therefore_o it_o behove_v to_o augment_v the_o virtue_n of_o

as_o will_v digest_v and_o to_o speak_v brief_o such_o medicine_n ought_v to_o be_v of_o great_a force_n inasmuch_o as_o ecchimosis_n be_v in_o the_o deepness_n of_o the_o body_n and_o far_o from_o
