there_o be_v another_o use_n also_o of_o that_o say_a humidity_n which_o be_v lay_v up_o in_o the_o store-house_n of_o our_o body_n as_o that_o learned_a huernius_n have_v well_o note_v compare_v

examine_v it_o will_v be_v find_v a_o great_a helper_n and_o maintainer_n of_o that_o true_a natural_a good_a humidity_n which_o in_o time_n will_v become_v good_a nourishment_n as_o you_o say_v rather_o than_o a_o hinderer_n of_o the_o same_o as_o have_v already_o partly_o be_v show_v before_o in_o your_o second_o chapter_n and_o shall_v hereafter_o more_o at_o large_a be_v declare_v and_o for_o proof_n thereof_o let_v this_o reason_n be_v something_o regard_v which_o follow_v this_o our_o country_n and_o native_a soil_n of_o england_n be_v a_o island_n and_o the_o most_o famous_a

of_o wine_n no_o nation_n in_o the_o world_n more_o and_o moreover_o beside_o all_o this_o we_o english_a man_n offend_v as_o much_o in_o idleness_n in_o careless_a sit_n up_o and_o watch_n and_o

another_o unprofitable_a crude_a humidity_n that_o she_o seem_v daily_o to_o make_v her_o moan_n and_o to_o call_v for_o help_v to_o have_v that_o superfluous_a and_o combersom_a enemy_n remove_v

man_n in_o time_n past_a before_o tobacco_n be_v know_v what_o help_n have_v they_o then_o or_o how_o live_v they_o in_o those_o day_n all_o this_o be_v nothing_o to_o the_o purpose_n and_o be_v as_o soon_o answer_v by_o i_o as_o object_v by_o you_o for_o admit_v they_o live_v more_o orderly_o then_o than_o we_o do_v now_o and_o so_o perchance_o have_v no_o need_n at_o all_o of_o other_o help_n which_o for_o all_o that_o i_o hardly_o believe_v or_o rather_o ●ay_v thus_o which_o indeed_o be_v the_o like_a of_o the_o two_o that_o they_o have_v other_o help_n and_o device_n to_o serve_v their_o

those_o former_a thing_n be_v then_o whatsoever_o they_o be_v well_o it_o may_v prove_v that_o tobacco_n be_v a_o thing_n late_a devise_v and_o find_v out_o but_o yet_o it_o prove_v nothing_o at_o all_o that_o because_o it_o be_v find_v out_o &_o devise_v but_o of_o late_a to_o speak_v of_o therefore_o it_o have_v no_o force_n &_o virtue_n at_o all_o to_o do_v good_a but_o rather_o to_o hurt_v as_o you_o will_v have_v it_o let_v tobacco_n be_v a_o late_a device_n than_o the_o rest_n if_o you_o will_v but_o at_o my_o request_n i_o pray_v you_o let_v it_o be_v a_o better_a for_o any_o thing_n that_o i_o see_v for_o far_o strengthen_n of_o this_o argument_n of_o you_o you_o allege_v that_o the_o great_a heat_n and_o unmeasurable_a dryness_n of_o tobacco_n dissipate_v natural_a heat_n whereby_o concoction_n be_v hinder_v &_o by_o that_o mean_n many_o raw_a humour_n increase_v etc._n etc._n in_o which_o say_v in_o my_o opinion_n you_o do_v far_o miss_v the_o cushion_n and_o this_o be_v the_o very_a point_n that_o in_o all_o your_o discourse_n be_v the_o chief_a cause_n and_o occasion_n of_o all_o your_o error_n as_o i_o have_v say_v already_o before_o for_o you_o do_v reason_n still_o as_o though_o there_o be_v such_o a_o fiery_a heat_n in_o tobacco_n and_o such_o a_o exceed_a extreme_a dryness_n as_o nothing_o may_v well_o be_v devise_v hot_a or_o dry_a you_o know_v the_o
