unknown_a to_o you_o in_o the_o secrecy_n and_o variety_n of_o disease_n difference_n of_o temperature_n and_o the_o like_a which_o may_v make_v that_o hurtful_a which_o you_o conceit_n be_v good_a

disease_n be_v so_o various_a and_o secret_a and_o remedy_n so_o uncertain_a that_o the_o wise_a man_n alive_a that_o have_v study_v and_o practise_v it_o almost_o all_o his_o ripe_a day_n be_v it_o

to_o be_v wise_a if_o you_o be_v teach_v they_o your_o skill_n but_o i_o must_v add_v that_o even_o physician_n guilt_n of_o the_o sin_n which_o i_o be_o reprove_v do_v cost_v many_o a_o hundred_o person_n their_o life_n as_o well_o as_o you_o even_o too_o many_o physician_n who_o have_v need_v of_o many_o day_n enquiry_n and_o observation_n true_o to_o discover_v a_o disease_n do_v kill_v

and_o lest_o their_o dear_a friend_n shall_v speed_v worse_o by_o they_o than_o by_o their_o great_a enemy_n for_o as_o seaman_n and_o soldier_n do_v bold_o follow_v the_o trade_n when_o they_o find_v
