from_o bruise_v and_o waste_v there_o be_v also_o in_o many_o place_n a_o certain_a humour_n which_o serve_v to_o anoint_v the_o joint_n and_o their_o ligament_n and_o the_o small_a end_n of_o the_o

of_o man_n body_n as_o therefore_o a_o man_n use_v not_o one_o only_a garment_n but_o diverse_a so_o be_v it_o with_o the_o body_n for_o first_o he_o be_v clothe_v with_o three_o skin_n body_n that_o

and_o be_v not_o without_o blood_n as_o the_o first_o be_v there_o be_v also_o a_o three_o skin_n under_o the_o second_o which_o be_v more_o fleshy_a and_o therefore_o it_o be_v thick_a and_o more_o

the_o body_n be_v between_o these_o two_o skin_n which_o serve_v the_o whole_a body_n not_o only_o for_o a_o cover_n but_o also_o for_o a_o ornament_n especial_o those_o that_o be_v most_o without_o which_o in_o man_n body_n stand_v in_o stead_n of_o that_o skin_n wherewith_o the_o body_n of_o beast_n be_v cover_v beside_o these_o three_o skin_n that_o cover_v all_o the_o body_n there_o be_v within_o many_o other_o particular_a skin_n of_o diverse_a sort_n to_o cover_v the_o member_n that_o be_v there_o which_o the_o physician_n call_v membrane_n and_o tunicle_n tunicle_n with_o such_o

defence_n unto_o they_o and_o to_o distinguish_v and_o separate_v the_o part_v one_o from_o a_o other_o we_o will_v leave_v to_o the_o physician_n to_o number_n and_o to_o distinguish_v they_o and_o to_o name_v every_o one_o by_o their_o proper_a name_n and_o now_o come_v to_o consider_v the_o last_o cover_n which_o be_v upon_o the_o body_n in_o certain_a place_n especial_o upon_o the_o head_n hair_n and_o that_o be_v the_o hair_n which_o principal_o abound_v in_o the_o head_n both_o in_o man_n and_o woman_n because_o it_o proceed_v out_o of_o a_o moist_a and_o soft_a place_n and_o to_o the_o end_n it_o may_v take_v the_o better_a root_n there_o the_o skin_n that_o be_v underneath_o it_o be_v very_o thick_a and_o fleshy_a the_o profit_n of_o the_o hair_n be_v great_a and_o serve_v for_o many_o thing_n first_o it_o be_v the_o ornament_n and_o beauty_n of_o the_o head_n for_o as_o the_o face_n will_v be_v evil_o favour_v and_o unsightly_a if_o it_o be_v hairy_a so_o contrariwise_o the_o head_n will_v be_v very_o deform_v if_o it_o be_v skinnelesse_a where_o it_o be_v cover_v with_o hair_n as_o we_o may_v judge_v by_o they_o that_o have_v bald_a head_n therefore_o because_o it_o be_v the_o top_n of_o the_o build_n of_o man_n body_n god_n will_v have_v it_o adorn_v with_o such_o a_o cover_n which_o also_o stand_v he_o in_o some_o stead_n to_o defend_v his_o
