A63788	The country-man's companion, or, A new method of ordering horses & sheep so as to preserve them both from diseases and causalties [sic], or, to recover them if fallen ill and also to render them much more serviceable and useful to their owners, than has yet been discovered, known or practised : and particularly to preserve sheep from that monsterous, mortifying distemper, the rot / by Philotheos Physiologus, the author of The way to health, long life and happiness, &c.

thus_o both_o man_n and_o beast_n have_v sharp_a appetite_n and_o strong_a digestion_n and_o can_v without_o prejudice_n eat_v more_o food_n in_o cold_a season_n than_o in_o hot_a and_o less_o drink_n

for_o the_o reason_n aforesaid_a than_o in_o the_o spring_n 5th_o but_o to_o come_v to_o some_o more_o particular_a reason_n all_o astrologer_n say_v that_o sheep_n be_v under_o the_o dominion_n of_o

often_o take_v place_n but_o more_o especial_o when_o other_o cause_n concur_v as_o when_o rains_n come_v in_o about_o july_n and_o continue_v till_o september_n or_o october_n and_o the_o like_a six_o you_o must_v consider_v that_o at_o this_o latter_a season_n of_o the_o year_n sheep_n have_v pass_v through_o the_o heat_n of_o summer_n which_o have_v awake_v their_o natural_a heat_n stir_v

food_n full_a of_o gross_a humour_n and_o earthy_a phlegmatic_a matter_n arise_v from_o decline_a vegetation_n do_v then_o manifest_v themselves_o to_o the_o great_a prejudice_n of_o health_n for_o which_o reason_n those_o month_n of_o july_n august_n september_n and_o october_n be_v most_o dangerous_a both_o to_o man_n and_o beast_n be_v not_o man_n more_o sickly_a in_o this_o season_n than_o in_o any_o other_o and_o also_o disease_n then_o contract_v more_o fierce_a and_o mortal_a as_o plague_n rot_v murrain_n &_o c_o not_o that_o it_o be_v to_o be_v doubt_v but_o sheep_n may_v rot_v on_o have_v watery_a disease_n in_o the_o winter_n as_o well_o as_o in_o autumn_n but_o than_o it_o must_v be_v such_o as_o lie_v night_n and_o day_n in_o marshie_a wet_a low_a ground_n live_v chief_o on_o grass_n which_o in_o all_o wet_a season_n without_o give_v they_o some_o hay_n at_o time_n with_o it_o be_v very_o pernicious_a to_o they_o whence_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o most_o year_n such_o ground_n do_v more_o or_o less_o distemper_n sheep_n as_o for_o example_n in_o northamptonshire_n and_o leicestershire_n where_o their_o land_n be_v rich_a and_o low_a their_o grass_n plentiful_a and_o sheep_n large_a but_o the_o country-farmers_n be_v cunning_a enough_o to_o save_v themselves_o pretty_a well_o for_o know_v that_o their_o sheep_n be_v subject_a to_o this_o fatal_a disease_n they_o be_v careful_a to_o time_n it_o and_o bring_v they_o up_o to_o london_n market_n before_o they_o be_v too_o far_o go_v and_o then_o our_o citizen_n and_o dainty_a dame_n do_v make_v good_a cheer_n with_o this_o stately_a and_o no_o doubt_n very_o tender_a mutton_n and_o be_v as_o blithe_a and_o merry_a at_o the_o burial_n of_o their_o carcase_n in_o their_o own_o paunch_n as_o young_a man_n and_o maid_n be_v at_o their_o whitson-ale_n or_o liquorish_a matron_n at_o a_o gossip_n some_o do_v say_v that_o there_o be_v a_o spring_n rot_v sometime_o but_o this_o be_v very_o rare_a and_o when_o it_o happen_v the_o chief_a cause_n have_v be_v either_o the_o disorder_n of_o a_o wet_a winter_n where_o care_n have_v not_o be_v to_o give_v they_o a_o sufficient_a quantity_n of_o hay_n or_o that_o they_o have_v feed_v in_o low_a wet_a ground_n where_o they_o have_v eat_v too_o great_a a_o quantity_n of_o grass_n or_o else_o they_o have_v be_v touch_v the_o michaelmass_o before_o with_o the_o rot_n and_o though_o they_o do_v hold_v well_o all_o the_o winter_n yet_o when_o the_o spring_n come_v the_o hide_a distemper_n manifest_v itself_o for_o at_o that_o time_n nature_n have_v a_o fresh_a and_o lively_a motion_n and_o what_o be_v infirm_a will_n then_o appear_v have_v thus_o discourse_v and_o lay_v open_a the_o cause_n of_o the_o rot_n in_o sheep_n from_o the_o closet_n of_o nature_n and_o point_v out_o the_o time_n when_o and_o by_o what_o mean_v that_o mischief_n be_v to_o be_v fear_v so_o that_o i_o hope_v all_o shepherd_n and_o sheep_n master_n will_v henceforth_o take_v particular_a notice_n when_o rains_n and_o much_o wet_a weather_n happen_v about_o july_n august_n or_o september_n or_o when_o it_o be_v general_o a_o wet_a summer_n and_o continue_v so_o

some_o direction_n how_o to_o prevent_v the_o danger_n in_o that_o case_n threaten_v one_a you_o ought_v to_o keep_v your_o sheep_n in_o the_o fold_n till_o eight_o or_o nine_o a_o clock_n in_o the_o
