and_o act_n against_o themselves_o who_o be_v the_o first_o aggressor_n in_o this_o division_n which_o i_o profess_v to_o be_v the_o sole_a end_n of_o these_o present_a paper_n and_o hearty_o wish_v

that_o the_o same_o law_n limit_n those_o tradesman_n as_o well_o as_o prohibit_v the_o apothecary_n from_o the_o practice_n of_o physic_n and_o sure_o the_o law_n and_o state_n have_v no_o

that_o in_o this_o private_a way_n of_o give_v medicine_n physician_n may_v poison_v their_o patient_n but_o this_o be_v easy_o retort_v upon_o the_o apothecary_n who_o may_v themselves_o or_o their_o

recite_v some_o few_o of_o their_o device_n against_o those_o physician_n in_o particular_a that_o make_v their_o own_o medicine_n as_o to_o tell_v the_o patient_n that_o be_v averse_a to_o chemical_a

case_n require_v the_o counsel_n of_o two_o physician_n and_o what_o other_o device_n they_o use_v i_o have_v not_o well_o learned_a now_o brief_o follow_v some_o small_a scandal_n they_o cast_v upon_o the_o say_a physician_n as_o first_o that_o they_o do_v it_o for_o want_n of_o practice_n the_o falsity_n whereof_o be_v know_v by_o those_o few_o that_o do_v act_v this_o way_n already_o and_o
