A42987	A short treatise shewing the causes and remedies of that general disease spread abroad throughout this nation, commonly termed by many the plague of the guts but it is very probable to bee that sort of flux, called by the name of dysenteria, or red-flux. With some other remarkable remedies for other diseases worthy to bee noted. Published by N.H. of Dorchester, in the county of Dorset for the good of those that desire their health. Try and trust. Try man as the instrument, but trust God as the helper.	N. H.	1658 (1658)	Wing H100A; ESTC R215851	7,379	24
