and_o corpulent_a also_o in_o those_o that_o eat_v and_o drink_v abundant_o live_v at_o ease_n and_o that_o use_v meat_n that_o engender_v much_o blood_n which_o when_o nature_n can_v altogether_o

have_v these_o commodity_n with_o it_o first_o that_o the_o whole_a body_n or_o the_o part_n affect_v may_v more_o sure_o by_o this_o mean_n then_o by_o administration_n of_o inward_a physic_n be_v

oftentimes_o the_o flix_a or_o lax_n clear_v the_o sense_n restore_v sleep_v reviu_v the_o spirit_n because_o melancholy_a blood_n be_v by_o it_o diminish_v cure_v deafness_n reduce_v the_o lose_a

of_o urine_n than_o by_o the_o sign_n before_o mention_v second_o although_o the_o blood_n be_v not_o inflame_v but_o only_o superabounding_a yet_o do_v it_o cause_n grievous_a ague_n and_o other_o perilous_a disease_n wherefore_o whensoever_o we_o find_v a_o inflammation_n and_o a_o abundance_n of_o blood_n present_o we_o open_v a_o vein_n also_o if_o any_o one_o every_o morning_n about_o the_o
