variety_n air_n as_o there_o be_v in_o complexion_n and_o what_o be_v profitable_a for_o one_o be_v not_o so_o for_o a_o other_o and_o to_o find_v out_o this_o secret_a there_o be_v no_o better_a way_n than_o for_o such_o as_o want_v agreeable_a air_n to_o travel_v out_o of_o one_o place_n into_o a_o other_o by_o which_o they_o may_v be_v capable_a to_o find_v out_o that_o which_o be_v most_o suitable_a for_o they_o for_o as_o in_o the_o best_a air_n some_o people_n languish_v under_o various_a disease_n for_o want_v of_o a_o change_n so_o in_o the_o worst_a of_o air_n many_o be_v very_o healthful_a and_o perhaps_o better_a than_o they_o will_v be_v in_o fine_a or_o thin_a air_n as_o many_o that_o live_v in_o the_o thick_a sulphurous_a steam_n of_o london_n be_v very_o healthy_a and_o live_v to_o great_a age_n and_o as_o every_o bad_a air_n be_v not_o prejudicial_a to_o all_o person_n so_o on_o the_o other_o side_n all_o good_a air_n be_v not_o profitable_a to_o some_o sort_n of_o
