one_o of_o the_o great_a help_n a_o sick_a person_n have_v to_o be_v satisfy_v with_o those_o about_o he_o and_o shall_v we_o well_o weigh_v what_o it_o be_v to_o be_v debar_v of_o use_v what_o physician_n we_o please_v in_o time_n of_o sickness_n it_o will_v amount_v to_o no_o less_o than_o the_o great_a of_o cruelty_n for_o the_o husband_n must_v be_v force_v to_o abandon_v the_o relief_n

to_o her_o husband_n the_o father_n or_o mother_n to_o their_o child_n and_o the_o child_n to_o their_o parent_n which_o if_o so_o be_v not_o the_o duty_n of_o relation_n dissolve_v and_o the_o law_n of_o god_n implant_v in_o our_o heart_n blot_v out_o and_o be_v not_o this_o a_o impiety_n beyond_o parallel_n for_o of_o how_o great_a a_o advance_v the_o affection_n of_o a_o patient_n to_o his_o

doubt_n and_o trouble_v of_o mind_n to_o the_o u●ter_a undo_n of_o the_o patient_n will_v unavoidable_o thence_o arise_v in_o he_o every_o man_n of_o a_o mean_a capacity_n may_v easy_o judge_v beside_o in_o time_n of_o great_a danger_n as_o when_o the_o plague_n rage_v we_o have_v see_v how_o inhumane_o they_o flee_v the_o city_n leave_v its_o inhabitant_n at_o that_o time_n when_o their_o skill_n if_o they_o have_v any_o be_v of_o most_o use_n hence_o you_o may_v clear_o see_v whether_o it_o be_v for_o the_o benefit_n of_o the_o people_n to_o be_v compel_v to_o use_v no_o other_o physician_n than_o those_o who_o in_o time_n of_o great_a danger_n will_v be_v sure_a to_o forsake_v they_o but_o i_o suppose_v every_o rational_a man_n will_v judge_v this_o enough_o to_o prove_v they_o have_v forfeit_v their_o power_n have_v break_v their_o trust_n which_o be_v for_o better_a secure_v the_o people_n from_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o ignorant_a now_o to_o conclude_v this_o apology_n let_v we_o consider_v the_o preamble_n of_o their_o patent_n the_o main_n hinge_v or_o soul_n of_o their_o constitution_n which_o if_o peruse_v you_o will_v find_v clear_o to_o demonstrate_v that_o to_o prevent_v the_o ignorant_a malicious_n and_o wicked_a from_o hurt_v the_o people_n their_o authority_n take_v begin_v and_o be_v impose_v on_o they_o for_o the_o same_o end_v wherefore_o if_o they_o can_v prove_v ignorance_n malice_n and_o wickedness_n in_o the_o person_n they_o trouble_v can_v any_o conscientious_a juryman_n find_v they_o guilty_a of_o a_o law_n if_o it_o be_v one_o that_o have_v not_o deviate_v from_o the_o scope_n and_o end_n thereof_o let_v this_o be_v lay_v to_o heart_n also_o let_v it_o be_v well_o weigh_v that_o they_o use_v not_o against_o we_o the_o verity_n of_o their_o art_n but_o arm_n viz._n their_o pretend_a law_n as_o if_o they_o want_v other_o argument_n to_o confute_v we_o a_o sufficient_a testimony_n they_o rather_o seek_v to_o suppress_v the_o industrious_a by_o power_n than_o reason_n which_o if_o so_o let_v all_o man_n consider_v how_o safe_a they_o be_v under_o their_o hand_n and_o also_o that_o man_n of_o innocency_n

of_o the_o kingdom_n which_o never_o want_v power_n to_o chastise_v those_o that_o by_o male-practice_n injure_v their_o neighbour_n finis_fw-la
