new_a writer_n with_o one_o consent_n do_v all_o agree_v that_o there_o be_v two_o cause_n of_o the_o stone_n the_o one_o material_a stone_n the_o other_o formal_a the_o material_a cause_n be_v a_o earthly_a gross_a thick_a and_o slimy_a humour_n the_o formal_a cause_n be_v the_o heat_n of_o man_n body_n digest_v or_o bake_v the_o say_a humour_n until_o it_o be_v hard_a which_o then_o remain_v in_o the_o nature_n of_o a_o stone_n this_o will_v i_o make_v more_o manifest_a unto_o you_o by_o a_o familiar_a example_n clay_n of_o itself_o be_v a_o earthly_a and_o slimy_a substance_n which_o i_o will_v compare_v unto_o the_o humour_n whereof_o the_o stone_n be_v engender_v also_o the_o fire_n i_o will_v compare_v unto_o the_o heat_n of_o man_n body_n whereby_o you_o may_v see_v how_o the_o

because_o of_o the_o contrariety_n of_o the_o matter_n whereupon_o she_o work_v and_o not_o by_o any_o diversity_n of_o her_o action_n for_o as_o by_o fire_n clay_n be_v make_v a_o stone_n so_o chalk_n be_v a_o stone_n by_o fire_n be_v convert_v into_o powder_n and_o as_o clay_n by_o fire_n be_v make_v a_o fast_a and_o firm_a substance_n which_o before_o be_v soft_a and_o easy_a to_o be_v

or_o separation_n of_o his_o part_n whereby_o you_o may_v gather_v that_o this_o slimy_a humour_n be_v in_o man_n body_n have_v a_o nature_n very_o apt_a to_o be_v turn_v into_o a_o stone_n which_o otherwise_o by_o so_o small_a heat_n can_v hardly_o be_v and_o therefore_o i_o will_v wish_v every_o man_n to_o have_v a_o special_a care_n in_o refuse_v meat_n and_o other_o thing_n which_o be_v apt_a to_o breed_v the_o stone_n

and_o in_o use_v the_o contrary_a which_o hereafter_o in_o place_n convenient_a touch_v the_o prevent_n of_o the_o stone_n i_o will_v not_o omit_v the_o difference_n of_o stone_n engender_v in_o man_n body_n the_o second_o chapter_n i_o have_v according_a to_o my_o promise_n brief_o speak_v of_o the_o two_o cause_n of_o the_o stone_n now_o with_o like_a brevity_n i_o will_v speak_v of_o the_o difference_n of_o stone_n engender_v in_o man_n body_n which_o i_o find_v by_o experience_n to_o differ_v in_o stone_n place_n colour_n form_n quantity_n and_o hardness_n as_o touch_v the_o first_o there_o be_v two_o usual_a place_n where_o the_o stone_n be_v engender_v the_o kidney_n and_o the_o bladder_n unto_o the_o stone_n of_o the_o kidney_n the_o middle_a age_a and_o they_o that_o somewhat_o decline_v be_v most_o subject_a and_o these_o stone_n of_o the_o kidney_n be_v also_o of_o two_o sort_n for_o they_o be_v either_o engender_v in_o the_o hollow_a vessel_n of_o the_o kidney_n or_o in_o the_o substance_n or_o flechie_a part_n but_o unto_o the_o stone_n of_o the_o bladder_n child_n be_v most_o incline_v which_o happen_v for_o that_o all_o child_n for_o the_o most_o part_n first_o eat_v often_o before_o that_o which_o they_o eat_v before_o be_v digest_v next_o after_o they_o have_v eat_v they_o use_v violent_a exercise_n &_o motion_n of_o their_o body_n continual_o whereby_o they_o force_v a_o thick_a &_o more_o gross_a ivice_n or_o nutriment_n from_o the_o stomach_n into_o the_o body_n than_o nature_n require_v and_o that_o gross_a substance_n settle_v in_o the_o bottom_n of_o the_o bladder_n by_o the_o temperate_a heat_n of_o the_o child_n be_v convert_v into_o a_o stone_n as_o in_o the_o make_n of_o the_o artificial_a wine_n if_o you_o let_v they_o pass_v through_o the_o strainer_n gentle_o of_o their_o own_o accord_n they_o come_v clear_a but_o if_o hasty_o you_o force_v they_o by_o wring_v they_o come_v thick_a and_o be_v settle_v will_v be_v full_a of_o ground_n in_o the_o bottom_n secondlie_o for_o colour_n there_o be_v some_o stone_n white_a some_o black_a other_o yellow_a some_o red_a some_o ash_n colour_n and_o some_o mix_v of_o diverse_a colour_n which_o diversity_n happen_v chief_o by_o difference_n of_o the_o matter_n whereof_o the_o stone_n be_v engender_v and_o somewhat_o by_o digestion_n of_o the_o stone_n either_o by_o small_a or_o great_a heat_n with_o either_o long_o or_o short_a time_n the_o three_o difference_n of_o stone_n be_v in_o form_n or_o fashion_n for_o some_o be_v round_o as_o a_o ball_n some_o like_o a_o egg_n some_o like_o a_o pease_n some_o like_o a_o barley_n corn_n some_o sharp_a some_o pike_a and_o of_o diverse_a and_o sundry_a other_o form_n whereof_o i_o need_v not_o speak_v the_o four_o difference_n be_v in_o quantity_n for_o the_o stone_n differ_v in_o quantity_n from_o the_o bigness_n of_o a_o pin_n head_n or_o less_o unto_o the_o quantity_n of_o a_o egg_n or_o great_a and_o the_o small_a sort_n of_o stone_n be_v for_o the_o most_o part_n engender_v in_o the_o kidney_n and_o that_o either_o in_o the_o hollow_a vessel_n of_o the_o kidney_n as_o i_o say_v before_o which_o be_v but_o small_a the_o stone_n can_v excee_v the_o bigness_n thereof_o and_o therefore_o must_v be_v small_a also_o or_o else_o in_o the_o substance_n or_o fleshy_a part_n of_o the_o kidney_n here_o and_o there_o disperse_v which_o also_o be_v never_o find_v to_o be_v great_a but_o the_o great_a sort_n of_o stone_n be_v always_o engender_v in_o the_o bladder_n for_o that_o the_o vessel_n be_v great_a will_v also_o admit_v the_o generation_n of_o a_o great_a stone_n the_o five_o difference_n be_v in_o hardness_n for_o there_o be_v some_o as_o i_o have_v often_o see_v which_o be_v scant_o congeal_v or_o bake_v so_o that_o one_o may_v break_v they_o to_o grit_n with_o his_o finger_n &_o his_o thumb_n other_o somewhat_o hard_o and_o not_o easy_a to_o be_v break_v and_o
