A45272	A corner-stone laid towards the building of a new colledge (that is to say, a new body of physicians) in London upon occasion of the vexations and oppressive proceedings acted in the name of the society called the Colledge of Physicians : for the better information of all men, as well as of physicians, chirurgians, and apothecaries, touching the unhappy estate of the art of physick, here in England, it being an apology for the better education of physicians / by Adrian Huyberts.

be_v the_o mother_n not_o only_o of_o the_o noble_a physic_n but_o of_o abundance_n of_o other_o invention_n the_o most_o useful_a for_o mankind_n of_o which_o a_o large_a catalogue_n may_v be_v give_v if_o it_o be_v fit_a to_o be_v more_o copious_a but_o what_o i_o have_v to_o say_v be_v if_o any_o ill_n ever_o happen_v thereby_o it_o be_v no_o otherwise_o than_o what_o be_v usual_a by_o

the_o hand_n of_o god_n reach_v down_o from_o heaven_n in_o this_o latter_a age_n in_o exceed_a mercy_n to_o poor_a man_n when_o his_o iniquity_n have_v so_o alter_v the_o whole_a scene_n of_o

which_o make_v they_o exceed_o different_a from_o what_o they_o be_v in_o the_o day_n of_o he_o or_o galen_n and_o indeed_o from_o what_o they_o be_v a_o hundred_o year_n ago_o and_o less_o so_o that_o the_o old_a art_n and_o remedy_n be_v insufficient_a to_o deal_v with_o they_o and_o therefore_o from_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o the_o society_n of_o apothecary_n of_o london_n have_v wise_o undertake_v and_o execute_v a_o design_n most_o laudable_a to_o supply_v the_o defect_n and_o answer_v public_a necessity_n by_o erect_v a_o grand_a laboratory_n and_o repository_n in_o their_o public_a hall_n for_o chemic_a medicament_n to_o have_v they_o there_o ready_o make_v of_o all_o sort_n to_o prevent_v fraud_n in_o the_o shop_n of_o private_a operator_n who_o have_v be_v wont_a

who_o may_v now_o be_v confident_a of_o have_v they_o good_a there_o and_o at_o one_o rate_n or_o price_n common_a to_o all_o man_n upon_o the_o public_a faith_n and_o honour_n of_o the_o whole_a

be_v mean_v only_a mineral_n medicine_n with_o the_o fear_n of_o which_o the_o malicious_a idle_a ignorant_a physician_n have_v bugbeared_n they_o often_o know_v that_o though_o most_o admirable_a
