to_o move_v and_o dispose_v the_o body_n to_o their_o purification_n by_o a_o agitation_n of_o all_o the_o humour_n 2._o but_o to_o return_v to_o those_o which_o be_v cause_v by_o motion_n pure_o

such_o as_o be_v make_v simple_o by_o the_o opposition_n of_o nature_n the_o disease_n which_o may_v cause_v the_o former_a be_v for_o example_n the_o plague_n pleuresie_n and_o general_o fever_n
