phlegmy_a matter_n which_o the_o stomach_n and_o vessel_n do_v continual_o breathe_v and_o send_v forth_o which_o do_v lodge_v or_o centre_n in_o the_o mouth_n especial_o between_o the_o tooth_n and_o on_o the_o gum_n and_o some_o people_n have_v foul_a stomach_n than_o other_o such_o do_v breathe_v forth_o very_o sour_a stink_a phlegmy_a matter_n which_o do_v not_o only_o increase_v the_o pain_n but_o cause_v the_o tooth_n to_o become_v loose_a and_o rot_a and_o for_o want_v of_o continual_a cleanse_n and_o wash_v those_o breathe_n and_o this_o phlegmy_a matter_n turn_v to_o putrefaction_n which_o do_v eat_v away_o the_o gum_n as_o though_o worm_n have_v eat_v they_o and_o this_o defect_n be_v general_o attribute_v to_o the_o disease_n call_v the_o scurvy_a but_o it_o be_v a_o mistake_n the_o cause_n be_v chief_o as_o be_v mention_v before_o from_o the_o stomach_n or_o for_o want_n of_o cleansing_n 2._o this_o distemper_n of_o the_o tooth_n and_o gum_n do_v also_o proceed_v from_o the_o various_a sort_n of_o meat_n and_o drink_n and_o more_o especial_o from_o the_o continual_a eat_n of_o flesh_n and_o fat_a sweet_a thing_n compound_v of_o various_a thing_n of_o disagree_a nature_n which_o do_v not_o only_o obstruct_v the_o stomach_n but_o fur_n and_o foul_a the_o mouth_n part_v thereof_o remain_v upon_o the_o gum_n and_o between_o the_o tooth_n for_o all_o such_o thing_n do_v quick_o turn_v to_o putrefaction_n which_o do_v by_o degree_n corrupt_v both_o the_o tooth_n and_o gum_n beside_o our_o bed_n take_v up_o near_o half_a the_o time_n of_o our_o life_n which_o time_n the_o body_n be_v not_o only_o without_o motion_n but_o the_o bed_n and_o cover_n do_v keep_v it_o much_o hot_a than_o the_o day-garment_n especial_o of_o those_o that_o draw_v the_o

which_o do_v dull_a and_o flatten_a the_o action_n of_o the_o stomach_n and_o this_o be_v the_o chief_a cause_n why_o supper_n lie_v hard_a in_o the_o stomach_n and_o require_v more_o than_o double_a the_o time_n for_o perfect_a concoction_n than_o the_o same_o food_n do_v when_o a_o man_n be_v up_o and_o in_o the_o open_a air_n for_o this_o element_n if_o it_o have_v its_o free_a influence_n be_v

help_n concoction_n but_o hot_a dull_a thick_a air_n do_v destroy_v the_o action_n of_o the_o stomach_n and_o as_o it_o be_v suffocate_v the_o pure_a spirit_n dry_v up_o and_o consume_v the_o radical_a moisture_n therefore_o the_o night_n do_v foul_a the_o mouth_n more_o than_o the_o day_n fur_v it_o with_o a_o gross_a slimy_a matter_n especial_o those_o that_o hau●_n foul_a stomach_n

the_o evil_n that_o the_o variety_n of_o food_n and_o the_o improper_a mixture_n of_o flesh_n and_o fish_n and_o many_o other_o thing_n which_o do_v foul_a and_o hurt_n both_o the_o tooth_n and_o

then_o on_o every_o small_a occasion_n of_o outward_a cold_n or_o the_o like_a accident_n nature_n complain_v if_o your_o tooth_n and_o gum_n be_v sound_a and_o free_a from_o this_o matter_n take_v what_o cold_n you_o will_v and_o your_o tooth_n will_v never_o complain_v as_o daily_a experience_n do_v show_v for_o all_o outward_a cold_n and_o other_o accident_n of_o the_o like_a nature_n have_v no_o power_n to_o seize_v any_o part_n of_o the_o body_n except_o first_o there_o be_v some_o inward_a defect_n or_o infirmity_n suppose_v the_o tooth_n be_v defective_a than_o the_o disease_n fall_v
