be_v by_o these_o counsel_n of_o galen_n these_o man_n do_v conclude_v that_o pepper_n ought_v always_o to_o be_v beat_v into_o fine_a powder_n by_o galens_n doctrine_n nevertheless_o these_o man_n in_o my_o opinion_n do_v not_o with_o diligent_a care_n consider_v galens_n intention_n in_o these_o and_o the_o like_a place_n neither_o well_o have_v mark_v the_o scope_n and_o cause_n why_o galen_n in_o these_o place_n do_v advise_v to_o pound_n pepper_n into_o fine_a powder_n for_o if_o they_o have_v well_o consider_v that_o galen_n write_v they_o may_v have_v understand_v that_o he_o give_v pepper_n so_o fine_o beat_v to_o remove_v the_o obstruction_n and_o stoppage_n for_o so_o before_o he_o do_v admonish_v that_o thing_n beat_v into_o thin_a powder_n pass_v into_o the_o body_n better_o and_o soon_o do_v remove_v obstruction_n and_o contrariwise_o that_o which_o be_v gross_o beat_v do_v stay_v in_o the_o belly_n long_o and_o better_o warm_v those_o part_n better_o digest_v crude_a and_o raw_a humour_n gather_v in_o they_o and_o do_v more_o effectual_o discuss_v wind_n to_o these_o latter_a intent_n pepper_n be_v to_o be_v beat_v gross_o especial_o in_o this_o our_o country_n in_o which_o man_n common_o do_v seed_n upon_o gross_a and_o slimy_a meat_n and_o so_o do_v heap_n in_o the_o part_n of_o the_o belly_n and_o first_o vein_n many_o crude_a and_o gross_a humour_n that_o pepper_n ought_v in_o this_o region_n to_o be_v beat_v most_o gross_o that_o it_o may_v thereby_o be_v occasion_v to_o stay_v the_o long_o in_o the_o belly_n so_o to_o warm_v the_o same_o the_o better_a and_o the_o better_a to_o concoct_v and_o extenuate_v such_o gross_a and_o crude_a humour_n for_o the_o heat_n of_o this_o medicine_n as_o galen_n write_v be_v found_v in_o so_o subtle_a a_o substance_n that_o the_o same_o be_v extinguish_v before_o it_o can_v come_v to_o the_o liver_n then_o if_o you_o shall_v beat_v the_o medicine_n fine_o the_o heat_n will_v so_o soon_o be_v exhaust_v and_o spend_v that_o it_o will_v neither_o sufficient_o warm_v the_o belly_n neither_o in_o good_a sort_n concoct_v those_o crude_a and_o raw_a humour_n wherefore_o i_o do_v think_v it_o very_o needful_a for_o our_o apothecary_n to_o pound_n pepper_n always_o gross_o in_o the_o medicine_n diatrion_n pipereon_o for_o if_o we_o shall_v need_v withal_o to_o open_a obstruction_n we_o may_v prescribe_v the_o medicine_n call_v diacalaminthe_n and_o so_o we_o may_v mingle_v it_o to_o diatrion_n pipereon_o or_o as_o occasion_n serve_v give_v it_o alone_o wherefore_o i_o hold_v it_o best_a to_o follow_v galen_n his_o precept_n which_o be_v that_o always_o thing_n be_v powder_v fine_o and_o in_o subtle_a manner_n when_o our_o purpose_n be_v to_o remove_v obstruction_n or_o to_o digest_v

our_o meaning_n be_v to_o increase_v heat_n in_o the_o part_n of_o the_o belly_n to_o concoct_v humour_n there_o and_o in_o the_o first_o vein_n or_o to_o make_v the_o belly_n loose_a than_o thing_n
