A88936	Riddles mervels and rarities: or, A new way of health, from an old man's experience, &c. Being his kind legacy, to his fellow creatures: or, the physician, and no physician, prescribing physick, and no physick; shewing plain, easie, and cheap ways, how every man may become his own physician, his own apothecary, and his own chyrurgeon, with little or no trouble, but far less cost. Whereby sickness may certainly be prevented to the well; health, as certainly procur'd to the sick; and man's life comfortably preserv'd, to a good old age.... Divided into 2 parts, by two universal medicines; the one physical, the other natural; the first the worst, the second the best. Also a short discourse concerning the phylosopher's stone, ... With several other choice observations of profitable use, as may be seen in the table here annext.	Mace, Thomas, d. 1709?	1698 (1698)	Wing M121A; ESTC R229881	30,352	40

as_o long_o as_o you_o live_v put_v still_o a_o new_a supply_n of_o the_o same_o liquor_n when_o at_o any_o time_n you_o draw_v off_o any_o from_o the_o powder_n the_o powder_n still_o remain_v in_o the_o bottle_n and_o here_o it_o be_v well_o worth_a your_o notice_n viz_o that_o though_o the_o liquor_n will_v be_v sufficient_o tyncture_v fit_a for_o use_v in_o 24_o hour_n ☞_o ☞_o yet_o if_o

will_v find_v all_o true_a for_o experience_n have_v confirm_v they_o and_o when_o you_o find_v they_o thus_o as_o i_o myself_o with_o many_o worthy_a person_n in_o this_o nation_n have_v do_v let_v they_o not_o only_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o your_o wonder_n and_o admiration_n but_o also_o to_o magnify_v and_o adore_v the_o infinite_a vnconceivable_a god_n the_o good_a the_o unsearchable_a cause_n of_o cause_n who_o work_n be_v all_o mystery_n and_o full_a of_o wonder_n but_o this_o one_o thing_n which_o i_o here_o discourse_n of_o and_o thus_o kind_o publish_v for_o a_o general_n

what_o i_o here_o declare_v concern_v these_o seem_a strange_a and_o incredible_a thing_n the_o last_o of_o which_o i_o shall_v now_o dispatch_v in_o few_o word_n that_o be_v if_o it_o be_v remember_v

of_o my_o two_o universal_a medicine_n mention_v in_o the_o title_n page_n where_o i_o say_v the_o first_o the_o worst_a the_o meaning_n of_o which_o saying_n be_v that_o it_o be_v worse_a to_o

purgative_n or_o applicative_a but_o have_v poison_n in_o it_o which_o be_v the_o only_a cause_n of_o its_o opperative_a quality_n therefore_o due_a regard_n ought_v to_o be_v have_v what_o sort_n of_o physic_n people_n put_v into_o their_o body_n but_o this_o physic_n which_o i_o here_o publish_v have_v no_o body_n but_o a_o pure_a tincture_n body_n this_o physic_n have_v no_o body_n which_o although_o it_o have_v the_o opperative_a power_n to_o stir_v and_o bring_v away_o the_o poisonous_a humour_n in_o man_n body_n yet_o it_o have_v no_o body_n can_v leave_v no_o malignity_n or_o

their_o disease_n now_o i_o will_v have_v you_o take_v good_a notice_n that_o what_o i_o have_v say_v thus_o far_o be_v chief_o in_o reference_n to_o those_o who_o be_v passive_o sick_a give_v to_o
