if_o there_o be_v nothing_o of_o a_o paroxysm_n you_o must_v give_v it_o when_o the_o fever_n be_v least_o violent_a instead_o of_o give_v it_o as_o you_o do_v in_o intermit_a fever_n three_o time_n a_o day_n in_o this_o you_o must_v give_v it_o every_o four_o hour_n till_o the_o patient_n have_v lose_v his_o fever_n after_o he_o be_v well_o you_o must_v remember_v to_o continue_v still_o the_o same_o clyster_n for_o twelve_o day_n in_o the_o same_o order_n as_o before_o that_o be_v to_o say_v the_o first_o six_o day_n twice_o a_o day_n the_o other_o six_o but_o once_o only_o this_o remedy_n be_v proper_a for_o all_o sort_n of_o person_n of_o any_o age_n of_o sex_n allow_v only_o for_o the_o difference_n of_o the_o dose_n for_o infant_n that_o suck_v and_o till_o they_o be_v four_o year_n of_o age_n the_o dose_n of_o powder_n must_v be_v two_o drachm_n from_o the_o age_n of_o four_o to_o ten_o the_o dose_n three_o drachm_n from_o ten_o to_o fifteen_o half_a a_o ounce_n from_o fifteen_o to_o twenty_o six_o drachm_n from_o twenty_o to_o sixty_o you_o must_v give_v the_o whole_a dose_n of_o a_o ounce_n the_o same_o to_o woman_n with_o child_n for_o the_o remedy_n have_v its_o effect_n without_o cause_v the_o least_o disturbance_n nevertheless_o person_n of_o a_o very_a weak_a constitution_n who_o fibre_n be_v very_o delicate_a shall_v take_v but_o half_a a_o do_v viz._n half_a a_o ounce_n you_o must_v observe_v that_o those_o that_o keep_v in_o the_o clyster_n but_o a_o little_a time_n aught_o to_o continue_v the_o take_n it_o much_o long_o that_o the_o frequent_a repetition_n may_v make_v amends_o for_o the_o deficiency_n of_o every_o particular_a one_o and_o by_o the_o number_n perform_v the_o cure_n which_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v as_o well_o of_o those_o that_o take_v the_o whole_a dose_n as_o of_o those_o that_o take_v but_o part_n you_o must_v observe_v also_o that_o for_o those_o that_o find_v themselves_o doze_v as_o general_o most_o be_v in_o malignant_a fever_n you_o must_v make_v use_n of_o no_o syrup_n of_o white_a poppy_n but_o endeavour_v to_o make_v they_o hold_v the_o clyster_n as_o long_o as_o possible_a you_o can_v without_o it_o on_o the_o contrary_a you_o must_v observe_v in_o all_o fever_n accompany_v with_o a_o looseness_n that_o you_o ought_v never_o to_o fail_v mix_v the_o half_a ounce_n of_o syrup_n of_o white_a poppy_n in_o the_o clyster_n in_o fine_a you_o must_v observe_v that_o in_o all_o complicate_v distemper_n as_o defluction_n upon_o the_o lung_n delirium_n pleurisy_n all_o sort_n of_o wound_n and_o the_o like_a this_o remedy_n be_v always_o give_v with_o success_n and_o never_o fail_v to_o take_v off_o the_o fever_n leave_v all_o thing_n in_o a_o better_a condition_n to_o be_v the_o more_o easy_o cure_v there_o be_v but_o one_o thing_n which_o can_v accompany_v a_o fever_n wherein_o you_o must_v deny_v yourself_o the_o use_n of_o the_o bark_n and_o that_o be_v in_o the_o extraordinary_a tension_n of_o the_o abdomen_fw-la i_o have_v one_o thing_n more_o to_o give_v caution_n of_o which_o be_v as_o there_o be_v a_o great_a many_o that_o can_v keep_v in_o a_o clyster_n so_o there_o be_v a_o great_a many_o that_o do_v give_v it_o back_o again_o when_o take_v and_o so_o feel_v themselves_o inflate_v for_o such_o i_o think_v it_o convenient_a to_o take_v a_o purgative_a clyster_n towards_o night_n for_o two_o day_n which_o will_v soon_o carry_v off_o the_o other_o upon_o which_o account_n it_o will_v not_o be_v amiss_o to_o inform_v the_o patient_n that_o these_o clyster_n have_v nothing_o of_o a_o purge_a quality_n neither_o be_v give_v for_o that_o intent_n that_o they_o may_v not_o be_v fright_v and_o disturb_v as_o a_o great_a many_o be_v unless_o they_o see_v a_o large_a evacuation_n of_o choler_n and_o other_o humour_n as_o be_v usual_a from_o ordinary_a clyster_n as_o for_o management_n of_o the_o diet_n i_o shall_v prescribe_v nothing_o extraordinary_a let_v the_o patient_n live_v upon_o broth_n as_o long_o as_o the_o fever_n continue_v after_o that_o let_v he_o eat_v spare_o without_o overcharge_v his_o stomach_n and_o avoid_v every_o thing_n that_o be_v hard_a of_o digestion_n during_o the_o fever_n let_v the_o patient_a drink_n barley_n broth_n make_v palataable_a as_o he_o shall_v think_v fit_a every_o one_o know_v very_o well_o that_o the_o root_n of_o scorzoner_n with_o hartshorn_n be_v of_o great_a use_n in_o malignant_a fever_n that_o the_o root_n of_o sorrel_n agrimony_n succory_n dog_n grass_n be_v use_v for_o refreshment_n that_o marsh-mallow_n liquorice_n sebesten_n jujubes_fw-la narbone_n honey_n be_v very_o good_a pectoral_o when_o the_o fever_n be_v go_v i_o be_o not_o for_o deny_v a_o moderate_a use_n of_o wine_n to_o those_o that_o desire_v it_o for_o i_o take_v it_o to_o be_v one_o of_o the_o best_a maxim_n in_o physic_n to_o satisfy_v the_o patient_n upon_o all_o occasion_n as_o far_o as_o you_o can_v it_o be_v according_a to_o this_o maxim_n that_o if_o i_o find_v any_o at_o the_o first_o beginning_n of_o their_o fever_n unwilling_a to_o make_v use_n of_o the_o bark_n either_o in_o clyster_n or_o by_o the_o mouth_n i_o be_o not_o against_o it_o so_o far_o from_o it_o that_o i_o shall_v think_v they_o very_o much_o in_o the_o right_n to_o endeavour_v first_o by_o a_o little_a bleed_v and_o purge_v to_o recover_v their_o health_n which_o oftentimes_o have_v success_n for_o that_o intent_n i_o will_v give_v they_o this_o excellent_a purgative_n in_o half_a a_o pint_n of_o water_n boil_v one_o ounce_n of_o tamarind_n two_o drachm_n of_o salt_n polychreste_n one_o ounce_n of_o purify_a cassia_n one_o ounce_n and_o a_o half_a of_o manna_n a_o little_a cinnamon_n and_o the_o white_a of_o a_o egg_n beat_v after_o you_o have_v boil_v it_o altogether_o seven_o or_o eight_o turn_n squeeze_v into_o it_o a_o little_a juice_n of_o citron_n then_o let_v it_o cool_v and_o strain_v it_o through_o a_o cloth_n for_o use_v three_o hour_n after_o you_o have_v take_v it_o drink_v a_o good_a dish_n of_o broth_n those_o that_o have_v a_o mind_n to_o add_v or_o diminish_v or_o alter_v any_o thing_n in_o this_o receipt_n may_v do_v it_o if_o they_o please_v and_o provide_v they_o observe_v the_o manner_n i_o have_v set_v before_o they_o they_o will_v never_o fail_v of_o a_o very_a agreeable_a medicine_n if_o there_o be_v any_o likewise_o that_o have_v a_o inclination_n to_o vomit_v and_o there_o be_v a_o sufficient_a indication_n for_o a_o vomit_n as_o be_v in_o all_o fever_n where_o there_o be_v a_o reach_a which_o by_o that_o mean_n go_v off_o without_o any_o other_o remedy_n yet_o i_o will_v willing_o give_v they_o a_o preparation_n which_o be_v the_o best_a and_o easy_a that_o can_v be_v take_v for_o that_o purpose_n take_v of_o purify_a nitre_n and_o crude_a antimony_n each_o one_o pound_n beat_v they_o into_o a_o very_a fine_a powder_n and_o searce_v it_o put_v a_o

one_o half_a hour_n after_o that_o let_v the_o fire_n go_v out_o and_o the_o crucible_n grow_v cold_a then_o break_v it_o to_o take_v out_o the_o vitrified_a matter_n and_o reduce_v it_o again_o into_o a_o subtle_a powder_n then_o add_v to_o it_o double_v its_o weight_n of_o cremor_n tartar_n also_o pulverise_v mix_v it_o all_o together_o and_o searce_v it_o throw_v it_o in_o by_o little_a and_o little_a into_o a_o sufficient_a quantity_n of_o boil_a water_n to_o make_v a_o dissolution_n of_o the_o salt_n this_o powder_n contain_v filter_n the_o water_n through_o cap-paper_n after_o

the_o manner_n of_o take_v it_o be_v to_o warm_v a_o glass_n of_o wine_n and_o pour_v a_o little_a out_o into_o a_o spoon_n where_o you_o have_v put_v the_o powder_n and_o swallow_v it_o down_o then_o
