and_o to_o enjoy_v all_o the_o felicity_n thereof_o both_o earthly_a 〈◊〉_d heavenly_a let_v we_o therefore_o by_o all_o mean_n seek_v to_o preserve_v the_o welfare_n of_o our_o body_n since_o the_o

be_v a_o burden_n to_o the_o mind_n who_o instrument_n it_o be_v and_o so_o hinder_v it_o in_o the_o performance_n of_o all_o excellent_a matter_n and_o in_o the_o possession_n and_o enjoyance_n of_o all_o delight_n and_o happiness_n both_o earthly_a and_o heavenly_a and_o instead_o thereof_o cause_n therein_o much_o distemper_n perturbation_n discontent_n evil_a and_o misery_n because_o this_o matter_n be_v of_o great_a consequence_n i_o shall_v brief_o endeavour_v to_o show_v how_o the_o body_n thus_o work_v upon_o the_o mind_n that_o the_o humour_n of_o the_o body_n be_v a_o occasion_n of_o passion_n and_o perturbation_n of_o the_o mind_n be_v a_o receive_a ground_n among_o all_o physician_n and_o philosopher_n it_o be_v well_o know_v in_o philosophy_n that_o the_o affection_n of_o the_o mind_n do_v follow_v the_o apprehension_n of_o the_o fancy_n and_o physician_n do_v well_o know_v that_o the_o apprehension_n of_o the_o fancy_n be_v conformable_a to_o the_o disposition_n of_o the_o body_n and_o the_o humour_n that_o be_v predominate_a therein_o they_o tell_v we_o and_o experience_v also_o teach_v we_o that_o the_o choleric_a humour_n if_o excessive_a be_v fiery_a and_o impetuous_a make_v the_o apprehension_n to_o be_v swift_a and_o violent_a exciting_a to_o anger_n and_o rashness_n the_o melancholy_n be_v cold_a and_o dry_a bring_v fear_n sorrow_n and_o dark_a

thing_n as_o have_v enmity_n excite_v to_o hatred_n revenge_n frowardness_n and_o to_o desperate_a mischief_n and_o misery_n so_o that_o it_o be_v apparent_a the_o body_n work_v upon_o the_o mind_n and_o the_o excessive_a distemper_a humour_n thereof_o do_v also_o annoy_v and_o distemper_v the_o mind_n but_o how_o not_o by_o deprive_v it_o of_o any_o power_n or_o faculty_n give_v it_o of_o god_n

of_o a_o middle_a nature_n between_o air_n and_o flame_n be_v pure_a and_o undistempered_a they_o cause_n in_o the_o mind_n tranquillity_n joy_n and_o good_a desire_n the_o airy_a part_n raise_v quick_a please_a and_o delicate_a conceit_n in_o the_o fancy_n and_o the_o flame_n incite_v noble_a and_o active_a desire_n in_o the_o soul_n but_o these_o spirit_n be_v distemper_v dull_a and_o

these_o animal_n spirit_n be_v the_o medium_n betwixt_o the_o body_n and_o the_o mind_n participate_v of_o both_o and_o the_o next_o instrument_n whereby_o the_o mind_n and_o body_n work_v upon_o

can_v please_v itself_o or_o effect_v any_o excellent_a matter_n have_v such_o distemper_a corrupt_a instrument_n to_o work_v withal_o so_o that_o although_o the_o spirit_n be_v willing_a yet_o the_o

that_o the_o body_n thus_o work_v upon_o the_o mind_n it_o be_v of_o very_o great_a consequence_n that_o we_o take_v diligent_a care_n of_o the_o good_a temper_n health_n and_o welfare_n of_o our_o

neither_o the_o matter_n of_o diet_n nor_o the_o quantity_n thereof_o nor_o the_o use_n and_o observation_n of_o those_o other_o non-naturall_a thing_n aught_o to_o be_v the_o same_o in_o all_o sort_n of_o people_n but_o very_o different_a according_a to_o the_o diversity_n of_o age_n complexion_n constitution_n and_o the_o like_a it_o be_v therefore_o good_a that_o every_o man_n be_v well_o

probability_n every_o man_n be_v either_o a_o fool_n or_o a_o physician_n let_v therefore_o every_o man_n survey_v himself_o and_o if_o he_o find_v the_o plight_n and_o state_n of_o his_o body_n to_o be_v in_o equability_n and_o of_o a_o perfect_a temper_n let_v he_o cherish_v and_o preserve_v himself_o in_o this_o good_a estate_n which_o be_v to_o be_v do_v by_o a_o due_a order_n apt_a

exercise_n sleep_v venus_n and_o affection_n of_o the_o mind_n but_o if_o our_o body_n do_v any_o way_n decline_v from_o a_o good_a temper_n and_o disposition_n then_o have_v we_o need_v to_o recure_v the_o same_o by_o all_o good_a endeavour_n and_o remedy_n to_o rectify_v therefore_o and_o remedy_v the_o ill_a temperament_n of_o our_o body_n let_v we_o observe_v these_o direction_n first_o to_o

thereof_o but_o in_o the_o observation_n of_o the_o follow_v physical_a direction_n we_o be_v to_o observe_v this_o caution_n that_o see_v the_o many_o and_o several_a rule_n and_o observation_n
