reason of plenitude and fulnesse of blood breathing a veine at the Arme is very necessary for her safety In all Fevers requiring Phlebotomy let it be done in the beginning when Nature is strong and the Distemper lesse prevalent After long and wasting sicknesse take heed of blood letting In Women and fatt bodies take blood sparingly in men and lean bodies and those who have large veines take more freely If the Masse of blood be wholly vitiated and naught be sparing in Blood letting but purifie it by gentle Purgation Sweating Medicamentall Aliment and proper dyet Before ten and after sixty years age let no Veine be opened but upon urgent occasion If the Disease be great and urgent requiring large Evacuation and Nature imbecile and weake take blood at twice or thrice itermitting 6 or 12 hours distance as the skilful Chirurgeon shall see cause When Phlebotomy and Purgation are both required and the Dis●ase seated in the Veines and habite of the body first bleed then purge but if otherwise and chi●fly in the stomack bowells and parts adjacent first purge then bleed If there be suppression of a wonted Evacuation and Detrimentall or obstruction contrary to the Law of Nature open

in the taking of any Medicine and the right Manner of keeping and preserving them from decay A Dose is the just and due quantity of a Medicine to be taken or used at once The full Dose is for men and women of strength but if they be weak and tender bodies or by experience have found that lesse will operate with them then other bodies require let such take the Doses for the age 14 prescribed I meane chiefly in vomiting or purging Medicines Observe the quantities prescribed for the several Ages and rather offend under then over the next Dose you may amend by taking a little more if the first be too weake there is no harm in that After the first Dose of any Medicine taken your own reason and ability of body will easily direct you in the next whether to keep to the same to augment or diminish for you must know the difference of bodies is such in operation that they require oftentimes a different quantity for their proportion to produce the like effect which cannot exactly be determined and appointed by the prescience of the most skilfull Physitian untill the first Experiment and tryall of their bodies Therefore slight not any Medicine if it answers not your expectation at the first but prove it farther and alter the quantity more or lesse as you find it requisite for your purpose and condition of body But let me Caution you this In Chronic Diseases that are slow of Motion and gives you sufficient time for Cure never desire strong Physick but imitate Nature which acts Gradually and gently does nothing Hastily and Violently Physick can doe nothing of it selfe but as an Auxiliary and help to Nature and if Nature does not Cooperate you must expect no benefit therefore if you go natures pace you will have Nature assisting with the meanes but if you be hasty and put all your hopes in the strength of your Physick and strive to doe as much in one day as is fit for three dayes work you precipitate Nature defame good Medicines and wrong your own body But when the Disease is vehement and accute threatning suddain death as Apoplexy Lethargie and the like then use sharp and quick Medicines because the time for cure is but short and will admit of no delay Vehementi malo forti omnino auxilio opus est What Medicines you would keep for a long time to serve for accidental occasions set them in dry places not near the ground or damp walls nor in the open
