will_v also_o give_v his_o advice_n and_o direction_n to_o such_o who_o case_n be_v uncurable_a to_o put_v they_o in_o a_o way_n to_o help_v themselves_o to_o do_v that_o good_a as_o can_v be_v do_v for_o they_o and_o as_o for_o such_o as_o be_v not_o capable_a to_o prepare_v medicine_n for_o themselves_o if_o the_o case_n be_v curable_a they_o shall_v have_v the_o medicine_n bestow_v on_o they_o and_o if_o ever_o they_o be_v in_o a_o condition_n to_o be_v able_a to_o pay_v i_o will_v trust_v they_o till_o then_o but_o if_o they_o have_v not_o a_o heart_n to_o do_v any_o thing_n than_o i_o shall_v not_o look_v after_o they_o but_o leave_v it_o to_o their_o own_o conscience_n to_o do_v according_a to_o their_o ability_n something_o towards_o the_o charge_n of_o medicine_n that_o i_o may_v the_o better_o hold_v out_o to_o help_v they_o that_o can_v do_v nothing_o as_o for_o such_o as_o be_v able_a to_o pay_v for_o their_o medicine_n they_o shall_v have_v they_o faithful_o prepare_v and_o at_o reasonable_a rate_n and_o i_o shall_v endeavour_v by_o my_o advice_n to_o give_v they_o that_o assistance_n that_o they_o may_v receive_v benefit_n by_o they_o and_o have_v no_o cause_n to_o complain_v that_o they_o have_v lay_v out_o their_o money_n and_o be_v nothing_o the_o better_a but_o if_o i_o can_v see_v the_o person_n or_o have_v a_o right_a account_n bring_v i_o that_o i_o may_v be_v able_a to_o give_v a_o true_a judgement_n of_o their_o condition_n i_o shall_v then_o deal_v plain_o with_o they_o and_o shall_v not_o suffer_v they_o to_o be_v at_o any_o unnecessary_a charge_n for_o it_o be_v against_o my_o mind_n to_o take_v money_n where_o i_o find_v there_o be_v no_o hope_n of_o do_v good_a i_o be_o so_o far_o from_o covet_v gain_n to_o myself_o by_o prepare_v medicine_n for_o such_o who_o case_n be_v doubtful_a that_o i_o have_v rather_o give_v they_o my_o advice_n and_o direction_n to_o make_v and_o prepare_v the_o medicine_n themselves_o and_o then_o they_o will_v be_v the_o more_o willing_a to_o use_v the_o mean_n for_o their_o own_o good_a when_o they_o know_v the_o ingredient_n and_o in_o so_o do_v they_o may_v cure_v themselves_o but_o if_o they_o have_v not_o their_o cure_n they_o can_v blame_v i_o for_o by_o this_o you_o may_v see_v my_o intention_n be_v to_o do_v all_o the_o good_a i_o can_v and_o though_o god_n may_v deny_v his_o blessing_n on_o the_o mean_n to_o some_o yet_o other_o by_o the_o same_o mean_n may_v be_v cure_v therefore_o let_v none_o despair_v of_o help_n but_o rather_o wait_v upon_o god_n in_o the_o use_n of_o mean_n for_o his_o blessing_n in_o hope_n of_o success_n in_o the_o end_n and_o though_o the_o mean_n i_o use_v myself_o be_v for_o the_o most_o part_n very_o successful_a in_o perform_v present_a cure_n yet_o sometime_o in_o some_o distemper_n it_o do_v require_v long_a time_n there_o be_v some_o who_o disease_n be_v uncurable_a but_o such_o be_v common_o prove_v after_o the_o mean_v i_o use_n be_v once_o apply_v and_o some_o there_o be_v that_o can_v be_v perfect_o cure_v but_o yet_o do_v receive_v great_a help_n and_o by_o the_o use_n of_o mean_n do_v keep_v up_o their_o body_n that_o they_o can_v walk_v abroad_o but_o experience_n have_v show_v that_o when_o they_o have_v not_o have_v the_o mean_n at_o hand_n the_o disease_n have_v get_v advantage_n again_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o differ_a cause_n of_o bodily_a disease_n it_o be_v impossible_a for_o man_n to_o find_v such_o a_o infallible_a medicine_n as_o to_o cure_v all_o disease_n but_o there_o be_v for_o natural_a cause_n natural_a help_n and_o for_o differ_v sort_n of_o disease_n there_o be_v many_o sort_n of_o medicine_n proper_a for_o their_o cure_n and_o those_o that_o have_v understanding_n will_v seek_v for_o help_v in_o time_n if_o they_o know_v where_o to_o have_v it_o for_o it_o be_v difficult_a to_o find_v out_o such_o as_o have_v good_a skill_n and_o a_o good_a conscience_n many_o will_v say_v the_o world_n be_v a_o cheat_n and_o the_o scripture_n say_v all_o man_n be_v liar_n and_o it_o may_v be_v you_o will_v say_v you_o have_v meet_v with_o such_o ill_a usage_n that_o you_o know_v not_o who_o to_o trust_v especial_o in_o matter_n that_o concern_v life_n and_o health_n in_o this_o you_o be_v at_o a_o loss_n and_o know_v not_o what_o to_o do_v and_o bodily_a disease_n come_v on_o a_o sudden_a and_o common_o in_o haste_n you_o run_v to_o the_o next_o that_o come_v to_o hand_n for_o help_v but_o if_o it_o prove_v not_o a_o skilful_a man_n it_o may_v be_v there_o be_v a_o life_n lose_v or_o some_o mischief_n do_v for_o want_n of_o a_o right_a understanding_n of_o the_o disease_n and_o for_o want_v of_o a_o proper_a remedy_n and_o such_o as_o seek_v only_o their_o own_o interest_n will_v make_v profit_n of_o they_o and_o make_v it_o no_o matter_n of_o conscience_n whether_o they_o live_v or_o die_v and_o if_o they_o know_v they_o can_v do_v no_o good_a they_o will_v not_o be_v so_o honest_a as_o to_o tell_v they_o so_o but_o will_v keep_v they_o in_o hand_n while_o it_o be_v too_o late_o for_o other_o to_o help_v they_o there_o be_v too_o many_o such_o practitioner_n and_o this_o be_v a_o great_a discouragement_n and_o make_v many_o afraid_a to_o put_v themselves_o into_o the_o hand_n of_o physician_n but_o i_o will_v advise_v such_o that_o be_v in_o health_n to_o get_v knowledge_n of_o a_o able_a physician_n before_o sickness_n come_v and_o those_o who_o know_v their_o bodily_a
