vomit_n and_o sudorisick_n must_v be_v defer_v till_o the_o course_n be_v over_o or_o you_o must_v use_v those_o that_o be_v very_o gentle_a lest_o nature_n shall_v be_v hinder_v or_o divert_v for_o

there_o be_v the_o less_o perplexity_n but_o if_o at_o the_o beginning_n you_o bleed_v or_o purge_v you_o hinder_v the_o menstruous_a purgation_n and_o if_o you_o do_v neither_o the_o disease_n

for_o in_o the_o beginning_n and_o in_o the_o increase_n as_o we_o say_v it_o be_v full_a of_o danger_n but_o in_o the_o state_n and_o declination_n the_o cruption_n of_o the_o course_n if_o they_o

bleed_v in_o the_o foot_n but_o if_o the_o course_n flow_v at_o their_o accustom_a time_n and_o happen_v to_o come_v at_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o disease_n you_o must_v first_o wait_v on_o nature_n and_o if_o after_o twelve_o hour_n the_o flux_n be_v not_o or_o be_v not_o like_a to_o be_v sufficient_a you_o must_v bleed_v in_o the_o foot_n to_o complete_a the_o natural_a evacuation_n of_o the_o woman_n and_o moreover_o you_o must_v take_v away_o so_o much_o blood_n as_o the_o disease_n require_v for_o we_o must_v respect_v custom_n and_o the_o disease_n too_o and_o this_o may_v be_v understand_v of_o violent_a disease_n yet_o it_o be_v chief_o to_o be_v use_v in_o small_a one_o and_o therefore_o that_o they_o shall_v not_o grow_v to_o be_v violent_a you_o must_v encourage_v the_o

arise_v from_o a_o cold_a cause_n you_o must_v give_v such_o medicine_n as_o promote_v the_o course_n and_o also_o respect_v the_o disease_n but_o if_o a_o purge_v be_v necessary_a you_o must_v defer_v it_o till_o the_o course_n be_v over_o lest_o the_o blood_n be_v move_v and_o disturb_v thereby_o great_a mischief_n shall_v be_v occasion_v but_o if_o the_o disease_n be_v one_o of_o the_o great_a as_o a_o quinsey_n frenzy_n pleurisy_n or_o a_o acute_a fever_n you_o must_v first_o bleed_v in_o the_o foot_n afterward_o the_o same_o day_n you_o must_v bleed_v in_o the_o arm_n but_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o you_o must_v apply_v ligature_n to_o the_o leg_n whilst_o the_o blood_n flow_v and_o this_o be_v good_a practice_n for_o the_o indication_n of_o the_o most_o violent_a disease_n be_v always_o to_o be_v respect_v before_o that_o indication_n which_o be_v take_v from_o the_o course_n and_o in_o the_o same_o manner_n you_o must_v proceed_v in_o the_o other_o season_n of_o the_o
