influence_n of_o jupiter_n to_o ourselves_o or_o if_o we_o will_v turn_v away_o from_o we_o the_o influence_n of_o mars_n or_o if_o we_o will_v draw_v to_o ourselves_o the_o influence_n of_o such_o other_o star_n which_o be_v good_a now_o this_o we_o can_v do_v as_o we_o can_v choose_v one_o herb_n and_o leave_v another_o i_o say_v we_o can_v do_v thus_o with_o the_o star_n to_o keep_v off_o the_o influence_n of_o one_o and_o choose_v the_o influence_n of_o another_o as_o we_o please_v but_o thus_o much_o we_o may_v do_v if_o we_o observe_v the_o sar_n before_o it_o put_v out_o its_o influence_n what_o be_v the_o most_o likely_a way_n of_o that_o influence_n viz._n to_o what_o work_n business_n etc._n etc._n it_o incline_v most_o and_o if_o it_o incline_v to_o a_o business_n etc._n etc._n of_o that_o nature_n as_o we_o be_v than_o we_o may_v by_o certain_a help_n as_o those_o image_n ring_n etc._n etc._n which_o be_v make_v for_o the_o planet_n draw_v the_o influence_n of_o that_o star_n to_o work_v with_o we_o and_o assist_v we_o but_o these_o thing_n i_o declare_v more_o full_o elsewhere_o four_o many_o herb_n have_v somewhat_o lurk_v in_o they_o which_o can_v keep_v the_o life_n of_o man_n vigorous_a and_o flourish_a for_o many_o age_n for_o herb_n have_v a_o incorruptible_a essence_n the_o which_o when_o the_o body_n of_o the_o herb_n perish_v it_o enter_v into_o some_o other_o herb_n of_o the_o same_o k●nde_n or_o it_o remain_v incorruptible_a in_o the_o earth_n if_o we_o receive_v the_o essence_n of_o a_o herb_n into_o our_o body_n it_o stay_v with_o we_o till_o our_o body_n perish_v and_o be_v putrify_v and_o then_o it_o enter_v into_o the_o earth_n so_o likewise_o ●he_v essence_n and_o property_n of_o man_n body_n leave_v the_o body_n when_o it_o putrifi_v here_o we_o must_v remember_v the_o difference_n which_o be_v betwixt_o the_o property_n of_o the_o herb_n and_o the_o essence_n of_o the_o herb_n as_o for_o example_n the_o property_n of_o hellebore_n make_v hellebore_n to_o be_v such_o a_o herb_n differ_v from_o all_o other_o herb_n to_o have_v such_o and_o such_o virtue_n as_o laxative_a etc._n etc._n so_o that_o the_o property_n of_o hellebore_n can_v be_v in_o no_o other_o thing_n than_o hellebore_n and_o when_o we_o receive_v the_o hellebore_n or_o essence_n of_o the_o hellebore_n into_o our_o body_n yet_o we_o do_v not_o receive_v the_o property_n of_o hellebore_n the_o essence_n of_o hellebore_n be_v the_o pure_a material_a substance_n of_o it_o contain_v the_o life_n &_o all_o the_o virtue_n of_o the_o hellibore_n in_o the_o high_a degree_n now_o when_o we_o take_v this_o essence_n inward_o it_o mix_v itself_o inseparable_o with_o that_o humour_n which_o be_v the_o chief_a seat_n of_o our_o life_n and_o preserve_v this_o humour_n from_o destructive_a alteration_n and_o so_o long_o as_o this_o essence_n last_v in_o we_o it_o do_v we_o good_a it_o be_v of_o itself_o durable_a yet_o by_o the_o infection_n of_o our_o corruptible_a humour_n wherewith_o it_o be_v mix_v it_o grow_v weak_a and_o waste_v in_o time_n as_o talce_a which_o can_v be_v consume_v by_o fire_n yet_o it_o may_v be_v consume_v otherwise_o in_o length_n of_o time_n i_o will_v here_o add_v one_o thing_n further_o concern_v the_o virtue_n of_o the_o place_n where_o we_o live_v viz._n that_o there_o be_v some_o place_n which_o do_v so_o agree_v with_o the_o humour_n of_o life_n and_o do_v so_o preserve_v it_o that_o those_o who_o live_v there_o enjoy_v a_o wonderful_a long_a life_n and_o there_o be_v some_o other_o place_n which_o make_v they_o immortal_a who_o live_v there_o the_o world_n may_v be_v divide_v into_o two_o part_n the_o one_o part_n be_v the_o place_n of_o mortality_n where_o we_o mortal_n live_v in_o hope_n of_o immortality_n by_o grace_n the_o other_o part_n of_o the_o world_n be_v paradise_n where_o death_n can_v be_v for_o whatsoever_o be_v there_o it_o be_v incorruptible_a natural_o and_o not_o by_o a_o miracle_n as_o our_o phylosophick_a gold_n preserve_v from_o leprosy_n etc._n etc._n so_o it_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o paradise_n to_o preserve_v from_o death_n that_o whatsoever_o have_v its_o first_o be_v there_o it_o be_v thorough_o undecayable_a in_o all_o its_o substance_n but_o we_o who_o live_v in_o this_o place_n of_o mortality_n we_o have_v a_o incorruptible_a essence_n and_o we_o have_v a_o corruptible_fw-fr body_n which_o can_v both_o be_v preserve_v without_o decay_v in_o paradise_n i_o will_v not_o write_v much_o of_o this_o because_o i_o have_v but_o little_a experience_n of_o it_o for_o the_o essence_n of_o earth_n be_v the_o centre_n of_o our_o experience_n and_o paradise_n be_v far_o beyond_o our_o travel_n so_o that_o what_o i_o speak_v of_o it_o i_o speak_v spiritual_o as_o in_o a_o dream_n rather_o than_o wake_v signify_v to_o you_o that_o life_n be_v there_o perpetual_a continue_v to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n or_o if_o long_o that_o be_v unknown_a to_o we_o but_o that_o you_o may_v more_o full_o know_v how_o health_n and_o long_a life_n may_v be_v preserve_v you_o must_v consider_v the_o cause_n of_o health_n and_o the_o cause_n of_o disease_n now_o health_n and_o all_o disease_n be_v either_o from_o the_o mind_n or_o from_o the_o body_n the_o mind_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o such_o disease_n which_o come_v by_o witchcraft_n or_o our_o own_o imagination_n or_o the_o imagination_n of_o another_o or_o the_o influence_n of_o the_o star_n for_o when_o imagination_n or_o enchantment_n take_v hold_v of_o the_o mind_n and_o make_v a_o impression_n upon_o it_o so_o as_o the_o mind_n be_v disturb_v and_o thought_n multiply_v and_o grow_v so_o strong_a that_o they_o overcome_v reason_n then_o at_o last_o by_o the_o power_n of_o that_o imagination_n or_o enchantment_n reason_n be_v quite_o overthrow_v and_o so_o the_o evil_a operation_n of_o the_o enchantment_n or_o imagination_n prevail_v and_o thereby_o disease_n be_v breed_v thus_o also_o the_o influence_n of_o the_o star_n may_v overcome_v the_o mind_n and_o command_v it_o howbeit_o it_o be_v not_o breed_v in_o the_o mind_n nor_o depend_v of_o the_o mind_n as_o the_o former_a viz._n enchantment_n and_o imagination_n yet_o it_o may_v powerful_o incline_v the_o mind_n to_o good_a and_o bad_a operation_n as_o the_o sun_n which_o pierce_v through_o the_o glass_n and_o change_v that_o which_o be_v in_o the_o glass_n according_a to_o its_o own_o nature_n the_o other_o cause_n of_o health_n and_o disease_n be_v the_o body_n viz._n the_o humour_n or_o complexion_n of_o the_o body_n or_o some_o predominant_a quality_n or_o some_o principal_a member_n of_o the_o body_n the_o complexion_n be_v from_o the_o body_n and_o be_v seat_v in_o those_o humour_n whereby_o the_o body_n be_v sustain_v i_o will_v not_o here_o describe_v those_o disease_n i_o conceive_v it_o not_o necessary_a neither_o will_v i_o here_o stay_v to_o

what_o use_v it_o be_v chief_o intend_v and_o to_o who_o it_o be_v most_o effectual_a i_o now_o come_v to_o the_o practice_n and_o first_o i_o will_v speak_v of_o natural_a remedy_n which_o be_v for_o those_o disease_n whereof_o the_o body_n be_v the_o cause_n and_o afterward_o i_o will_v show_v you_o how_o these_o disease_n which_o come_v from_o the_o mind_n be_v to_o be_v cure_v which_o be_v not_o to_o be_v cure_v by_o natural_a remedy_n but_o they_o must_v be_v cure_v in_o such_o a_o way_n as_o be_v proper_a to_o they_o first_o then_o to_o preserve_v we_o from_o bodily_a disease_n we_o must_v have_v respect_n chief_o to_o the_o humour_n of_o life_n which_o uphold_v the_o body_n &_o govern_v the_o complexion_n of_o the_o body_n etc._n etc._n &_o if_o it_o be_v keep_v in_o good_a case_n the_o body_n be_v thereby_o preserve_v we_o need_v not_o be_v careful_a how_o we_o may_v renew_v the_o complexion_n and_o quality_n of_o the_o body_n or_o how_o to_o purge_v out_o hurtful_a
