A95997	Speedy help for rich and poor. or, certain physicall discourses touching the vertue of whey, in the cure of the griping flux of the belly, and of the dysentery. Of cold water, in the cure of the gout, and green-wounds. Of wine-vineger, in the preservation from, and cure of the plague, and other pestilential diseases: as also in the prevention of the hydrophobia, or dread of water, caused by the biting of a mad dog. &c. Written in Latine by Hermannus Vander Heyden, a physician of Gaunt.	Heyden, Hermann van der, 1572-ca. 1650.	1653 (1653)	Wing V63; Thomason E1305_1; ESTC R30733	79,878	247

large_a or_o lesser_a may_v in_o like_a manner_n either_o more_o or_o less_o careful_o study_v their_o own_o preservation_n and_o therefore_o first_o of_o all_o i_o advise_v they_o to_o take_v for_o

some_o add_v to_o these_o treacle_n also_o or_o if_o they_o will_v provide_v yet_o more_o certain_o for_o their_o own_o safety_n the_o best_a preservative_n that_o be_v in_o this_o case_n be_v say_v
