a_o brief_a discourse_n of_o certain_a bath_n or_o medicinal_a water_n in_o the_o county_n of_o warwick_n near_o unto_o a_o village_n call_v newnam_n regis_fw-la 1587._o the_o benefit_n no_o doubt_n

since_o the_o prosperous_a reign_n of_o our_o most_o gracious_a sovereign_n wherein_o the_o gospel_n have_v sincere_o and_o free_o be_v preach_v in_o who_o time_n many_o &_o strange_a event_n have_v happen_v to_o the_o great_a benefit_n of_o this_o country_n for_o who_o have_v not_o in_o admiration_n our_o long_a continuance_n of_o peace_n and_o tranquillity_n our_o neighbour_n all_o round_a about_o we_o be_v in_o continual_a war_n who_o do_v not_o marvel_n at_o our_o plenty_n and_o abundance_n of_o all_o thing_n it_o be_v miraculous_a in_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o world_n that_o so_o many_o strange_a stratagem_n practise_v by_o evil_n dispose_v person_n as_o well_o to_o subvert_v our_o quiet_a estate_n as_o to_o take_v from_o we_o our_o most_o sovereign_n lady_n and_o queen_n

among_o the_o which_o the_o bath_n and_o medicinal_a water_n of_o late_a year_n discover_v in_o sundry_a part_n of_o england_n be_v not_o of_o least_o moment_n for_o most_o man_n yet_o live_v can_v

that_o respect_n have_v bless_v this_o our_o country_n far_o more_o than_o other_o nation_n and_o be_v as_o it_o be_v plain_a argument_n to_o bring_v other_o prince_n to_o embrace_v the_o gospel_n to_o root_v out_o all_o superstition_n and_o idolatry_n to_o plant_v in_o their_o country_n true_a religion_n out_o of_o god_n book_n and_o above_o all_o thing_n to_o seek_v god_n glory_n and_o his_o

before_o to_o work_v effect_n strange_a and_o marvelous_a in_o our_o sight_n thereby_o to_o induce_v all_o man_n to_o for_o sake_n such_o puddle_n pit_n which_o man_n devise_n have_v dig_v and_o

will_v bear_v testimony_n thereof_o and_o no_o doubt_n many_o and_o rare_a virtue_n and_o quality_n be_v in_o they_o far_o beyond_o common_a water_n as_o will_v appear_v by_o diligent_a search_n of_o

not_o now_o nor_o have_v not_o of_o late_a year_n be_v perform_v sure_o this_o come_v not_o by_o mean_n of_o defect_n in_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o water_n but_o rather_o by_o the_o great_a abuse_n of_o they_o for_o at_o my_o be_v there_o i_o find_v great_a concourse_n of_o alsort_n of_o people_n affect_v with_o sundry_a and_o dissident_a disease_n which_o all_o in_o one_o manner_n use_v these_o water_n both_o inward_o and_o outward_o without_o counsel_n or_o any_o just_a consideration_n carry_v away_o with_o opinion_n as_o it_o seem_v that_o the_o faculty_n and_o virtue_n of_o they_o be_v supernatural_o give_v from_o god_n without_o any_o ordinary_a mean_n and_o so_o the_o use_n of_o the_o same_o not_o to_o depend_v of_o any_o order_n or_o advise_v of_o physic_n but_o that_o it_o be_v sufficient_a by_o any_o mean_n to_o use_v they_o much_o like_a unto_o the_o superstition_n of_o our_o forefather_n which_o in_o old_a time_n account_v their_o pilgrimage_n and_o the_o vow_v of_o a_o penny_n to_o some_o one_o saint_n or_o other_o or_o the_o dip_v of_o a_o cloth_n in_o bathe_v water_n to_o be_v sufficient_a for_o the_o cure_n of_o any_o of_o their_o malady_n and_o by_o these_o mean_v the_o nature_n and_o quality_n of_o these_o bath_n water_v not_o consider_v nor_o the_o constitution_n and_o temperament_n of_o the_o party_n weigh_v many_o receive_v more_o hurt_n than_o good_a for_o in_o truth_n every_o medicinal_a water_n do_v not_o cure_v every_o infirmity_n nor_o every_o man_n be_v to_o use_v every_o bathe_v but_o these_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v distinguish_v and_o so_o consider_v of_o by_o the_o learned_a that_o the_o bath_n may_v be_v apt_v to_o the_o disease_n and_o be_v agreeable_a to_o the_o party_n disease_v and_o among_o our_o countryman_n this_o be_v in_o truth_n a_o great_a fault_n that_o when_o a_o thing_n be_v know_v to_o do_v good_a to_o many_o we_o straightway_o general_o proceed_v in_o the_o use_n of_o it_o without_o respect_n of_o difference_n of_o party_n or_o of_o affect_n as_o if_o one_o shoe_n may_v serve_v for_o every_o man_n foot_n that_o we_o cease_v not_o from_o abuse_v of_o the_o same_o until_o many_o bad_a success_n have_v breed_v discredit_n to_o the_o thing_n as_o of_o late_a have_v appear_v by_o the_o abuse_n of_o mechoacan_n and_o diverse_a other_o indian_a and_o foreign_a medicine_n the_o consideration_n hereof_o occasion_v i_o to_o think_v it_o not_o altogether_o a_o vain_a labour_n to_o write_v somewhat_o of_o the_o most_o famous_a bath_n and_o medicinal_a water_n in_o england_n wherein_o i_o

to_o set_v forth_o in_o what_o disease_n and_o body_n the_o same_o be_v most_o convenient_a not_o omit_v the_o true_a use_n of_o they_o when_o they_o be_v either_o inward_o to_o be_v drunken_a or_o
