be_v many_o time_n that_o the_o patient_n have_v need_n of_o some_o inward_a medicine_n which_o the_o chirurgeon_n can_v nor_o may_v well_o give_v without_o the_o physician_n counsel_n and_o indeed_o it_o be_v very_o meet_v and_o necessary_a that_o the_o chirurgeon_n shall_v undertake_v no_o hard_a or_o dangerous_a cure_n without_o the_o physician_n advice_n howbeit_o as_o i_o see_v now_o a_o

of_o it_o be_v not_o unknown_a that_o many_o poor_a patient_n perish_v under_o such_o rash_a and_o lewd_a chirurgeon_n but_o to_o say_v the_o truth_n the_o fault_n be_v not_o so_o much_o in_o they_o as_o in_o those_o that_o gird_v credit_n unto_o they_o for_o as_o the_o world_n go_v now_o a_o day_n if_o a_o physician_n or_o chirurgeon_n have_v a_o fair_a tongue_n and_o have_v also_o somewhat_o

they_o call_v it_o a_o swell_a or_o imposthume_n in_o some_o outward_a part_n of_o his_o body_n and_o feel_v great_a pain_n what_o remedy_n shall_v the_o chirurgeon_n use_v for_o the_o expelling_a of_o it_o he_o must_v first_o consider_v what_o be_v the_o nature_n and_o quality_n of_o a_o inflammation_n call_v in_o greek_a phlegmone_n whether_o it_o be_v engender_v of_o pure_a blood_n only_o or_o else_o mix_v with_o any_o other_o humour_n what_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o it_o and_o what_o be_v the_o sign_n now_o let_v we_o suppose_v that_o the_o say_v phlegmon_n be_v engender_v only_o of_o

ash-colour_n a_o leadie_a or_o ash_n colour_a circle_n do_v signify_v the_o fall_a evil_n through_o the_o great_a grief_n of_o the_o brain_n and_o further_o declare_v that_o such_o grief_n shall_v

throughout_o the_o whole_a body_n which_o sign_n yet_o be_v not_o always_o evil_a except_o it_o continue_v long_o for_o if_o it_o continue_v but_o a_o little_a while_n it_o declare_v no_o great_a

to_o be_v in_o some_o other_o part_n of_o the_o body_n but_o this_o ever_o be_v true_a that_o matter_n in_o urine_n be_v a_o token_n of_o a_o sore_n and_o if_o in_o continuance_n of_o time_n the_o

chap._n viii_o the_o signification_n of_o the_o part_n of_o urine_n particular_o i_o tell_v you_o in_o the_o sixth_o chapter_n of_o this_o book_n what_o urine_n be_v most_o perfect_a sound_a and_o

healthful_a man_n you_o may_v perceive_v by_o that_o i_o have_v write_v already_o and_o that_o it_o be_v also_o true_a in_o sick_a man_n hypocrates_n witness_v say_v that_o urine_n be_v best_a who_o

will_v declare_v the_o other_o difference_n of_o urine_n whereby_o it_o alter_v from_o this_o mean_a urine_n in_o all_o part_n particular_o urine_n substance_n of_o urine_n and_o first_o will_v

itself_o only_o good_a temperance_n and_o health_n but_o the_o other_o two_o betoken_v distemperance_n and_o default_n of_o concoction_n and_o that_o diverse_o according_a to_o the_o diversity_n of_o the_o cause_n of_o they_o as_o you_o shall_v now_o consequent_o hear_v fist_n to_o speak_v of_o thin_a urine_n either_o it_o do_v still_o so_o continue_v thin_a urine_n thin_a urine_n as_o it_o be_v first_o make_v or_o else_o it_o do_v short_o wax_v thick_a and_o trouble_a that_o that_o do_v continue_v still_o thin_a do_v betoken_v lack_n of_o concoction_n and_o so_o do_v the_o other_o also_o

it_o
declare_v that_o nature_n have_v begin_v to_o concoct_v already_o notwithstanding_o it_o be_v a_o evil_a urine_n for_o it_o signify_v that_o nature_n have_v need_v not_o only_o of_o great_a strength_n

and_o beside_o that_o do_v further_a betoken_v as_o witness_v hypocrates_n gather_n or_o apostumation_n stumation_n in_o the_o nether_a part_n of_o the_o body_n namely_o if_o it_o continue_v so_o

for_o if_o it_o be_v in_o a_o burn_a ague_n it_o be_v a_o token_n of_o frensine_n but_o if_o the_o patient_a be_v fransick_a already_o and_o the_o urine_n do_v so_o continue_v it_o do_v most_o
