disease_n that_o be_v out_o of_o the_o vein_n &_o be_v distant_a from_o the_o place_n by_o which_o the_o urine_n pass_v there_o be_v no_o certain_a judgement_n to_o be_v give_v by_o the_o urine_n unless_o the_o vehemency_n of_o the_o disease_n have_v infect_v the_o blood_n or_o the_o liver_n after_o some_o sort_n nevertheless_o such_o be_v y●_z ignorance_n of_o many_o people_n that_o they_o

soever_o it_o be_v which_o thing_n undoubted_o in_o diverse_a disease_n be_v impossible_a to_o be_v know_v by_o the_o only_a sight_n and_o inspection_n of_o the_o urine_n therefore_o it_o be_v very_o necessary_a for_o he_o that_o will_v minister_v physic_n due_o and_o rightful_o to_o observe_v these_o 4._o rule_n follow_v that_o be_v to_o say_v first_o to_o see_v the_o sick_a person_n &_o to_o

the_o accident_n that_o do_v arise_v thereof_o not_o omit_v to_o know_v the_o former_a diet_n and_o trade_n of_o life_n which_o the_o sick_a person_n have_v use_v these_o thing_n then_o be_v

take_v away_o the_o fond_a and_o foolish_a opinion_n that_o a_o great_a number_n of_o people_n do_v deem_v to_o be_v true_a that_o be_v that_o the_o sight_n of_o the_o urine_n be_v sufficient_a

cease_v to_o speak_v any_o more_o hereof_o but_o i_o will_v as_o brief_o as_o i_o may_v entreat_v somewhat_o of_o the_o use_n and_o benefit_n that_o do_v arise_v &_o come_v of_o purge_v and_o blood-letting_a &_o i_o will_v wish_v all_o those_o that_o do_v practice_v the_o same_o to_o be_v careful_a thereof_o note_v also_o that_o if_o the_o body_n of_o a_o man_n do_v abound_v with_o humour_n which_o be_v ready_a to_o oppress_v nature_n then_o whether_o there_o be_v any_o sickness_n in_o the_o body_n present_a by_o mean_n of_o they_o or_o if_o there_o be_v but_o danger_n of_o sickness_n those_o humour_n must_v be_v evacuat_a out_o of_o the_o body_n either_o by_o blood-letting_a purge_v vomit_n sweat_v bath_n or_o else_o by_o some_o other_o kind_n of_o evacuation_n but_o i_o will_v speak_v here_o only_o of_o evacuation_n by_o blood-letting_a and_o purge_v and_o first_o of_o all_o of_o bloudletting_n there_o be_v diverse_a thing_n to_o be_v consider_v of_o before_o blood-letting_a as_o the_o age_n of_o the_o patient_a the_o complexion_n the_o time_n of_o the_o year_n the_o region_n the_o custom_n the_o strength_n and_o the_o vehemency_n of_o the_o disease_n the_o age_n must_v be_v consider_v because_o child_n under_o 14._o year_n of_o age_n and_o old_a folk_n may_v not_o be_v let_v blood_n unless_o great_a necessity_n require_v it_o the_o complexion_n be_v to_o be_v note_v because_o a_o hot_a complexion_n have_v large_a vein_n and_o abound_v with_o much_o blood_n and_o they_o may_v therefore_o forbear_v a_o good_a quantity_n of_o blood_n but_o cold_a complexion_n have_v narrow_a vein_n and_o little_a blood_n and_o therefore_o their_o evacuation_n must_v be_v small_a the_o time_n of_o the_o year_n must_v be_v very_o well_o mark_v that_o the_o weather_n be_v not_o too_o hot_a nor_o too_o cold_a and_o therefore_o the_o spring_n time_n be_v the_o most_o apt_a time_n for_o blood-letting_n because_o that_o then_o it_o be_v temperate_a the_o region_n and_o country_n be_v to_o be_v speak_v of_o because_o it_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o if_o the_o region_n be_v very_o hot_a or_o else_o very_o cold_a it_o be_v not_o good_a to_o let_v blood_n but_o a_o temperate_a region_n be_v most_o meet_a of_o all_o for_o it_o custom_n be_v not_o to_o be_v neglect_v for_o thereby_o we_o may_v know_v that_o they_o that_o have_v be_v accustom_v to_o bleed_v may_v better_o suffer_v blood-letting_n than_o those_o that_o be_v never_o let_v blood_n at_o any_o time_n before_o the_o strength_n of_o the_o person_n must_v be_v regard_v for_o if_o there_o be_v great_a weakness_n then_o be_v it_o very_o daungerouse_a to_o let_v blood_n at_o all_o except_o great_a necessity_n compel_v also_o the_o vehemency_n of_o the_o disease_n be_v worthy_a to_o be_v mark_v for_o if_o it_o be_v a_o vehement_fw-mi disease_n than_o you_o must_v let_v blood_n forthwith_o if_o the_o former_a circumstance_n will_v permit_v it_o these_o thing_n be_v consider_v if_o they_o will_v permit_v blood-letting_n and_o if_o it_o be_v in_o a_o needful_a cause_n than_o it_o shall_v be_v very_o necessary_a to_o know_v in_o what_o sign_n the_o moon_n be_v in_o for_o you_o must_v take_v heed_n that_o she_o be_v not_o in_o the_o sign_n that_o govern_v that_o member_n wherein_o you_o intend_v to_o open_v the_o vain_a &_o also_o to_o foresee_v that_o she_o be_v in_o such_o a_o sign_n as_o be_v good_a to_o let_v blood_n in_o the_o use_n and_o commodity_n of_o blood-letting_n be_v these_o that_o be_v here_o express_v first_o this_o be_v a_o general_a rule_n that_o blood-letting_n be_v a_o very_a good_a remedy_n for_o all_o disease_n that_o be_v engender_v of_o abundance_n flow_v or_o eruption_n of_o blood_n as_o be_v chief_o the_o fever_n call_v sinochy_n also_o the_o phrenesie_n squinancy_n pleurisy_n peripnewmony_n opthalmie_fw-mi and_o against_o all_o inflamatious_a and_o impostumation_n engender_v of_o blood_n in_o the_o lyver_n the_o spleen_n the_o rain_n the_o womb_n the_o share_n the_o armhole_n the_o arm_n the_o leg_n and_o to_o conclude_v in_o all_o inward_a or_o outward_a part_n wheresoever_o the_o inflammation_n be_v blood-letting_n be_v good_a for_o it_o whether_o it_o be_v now_o present_a or_o that_o there_o be_v any_o danger_n that_o it_o will_v short_o engender_v also_o blood-letting_a be_v good_a in_o fever_n whether_o they_o be_v continual_a or_o intermittent_a insomuch_o that_o the_o obstruction_n &_o stoppinge_n of_o the_o vein_n be_v cause_v of_o immoderate_a repletion_n of_o the_o humour_n note_v also_o that_o blood-letting_a do_v empty_a and_o evacuat_a from_o the_o body_n all_o humour_n alike_o as_o well_o the_o good_a as_o the_o bad_a and_o therefore_o it_o be_v chief_o to_o be_v use_v when_o there_o be_v to_o great_a a_o abundance_n of_o blood_n in_o the_o body_n &_o other_o humour_n which_o do_v strain_v the_o vein_n and_o that_o there_o be_v great_a danger_n &_o jeopardy_n in_o break_v of_o some_o vein_n or_o the_o bruise_v out_o of_o some_o flux_n of_o blood_n or_o of_o choke_v and_o to_o extinguish_v natural_a heat_n and_o therefore_o in_o such_o case_n you_o must_v let_v blood_n with_o all_o speed_n although_o the_o sickness_n be_v not_o already_o present_a for_o by_o let_v of_o blood_n
