to_o have_v good_a medicine_n machiavelli_n somewhere_o prudent_o advise_v that_o if_o you_o will_v understand_v what_o man_n design_n or_o intention_n be_v learn_v what_o will_v conduce_v most_o to_o promote_v their_o interest_n and_o that_o they_o will_v chief_o aim_v at_o although_o to_o the_o unwary_a spectator_n they_o may_v seem_v to_o look_v another_o way_n and_o act_v another_o part_n than_o they_o intend_v there_o be_v but_o two_o case_n where_o this_o maxim_n be_v render_v invalid_a the_o one_o be_v when_o man_n be_v overawe_v with_o such_o a_o sense_n of_o religion_n as_o will_v not_o allow_v they_o to_o practise_v what_o they_o apprehend_v will_v be_v high_o for_o their_o temporal_a advantage_n but_o this_o be_v so_o far_o from_o hinder_v the_o physician_n that_o it_o be_v or_o aught_o to_o be_v the_o great_a encouragement_n he_o can_v meet_v with_o the_o applause_n and_o acquittance_n he_o will_v daily_o receive_v from_o his_o own_o conscience_n prove_v a_o abundant_a recompense_n for_o the_o unusual_a trouble_n he_o will_v meet_v with_o in_o compound_v and_o dispense_n his_o own_o remedy_n the_o other_o occasion_n of_o invalidate_v the_o forequote_v maxim_n be_v when_o man_n mistake_v their_o interest_n and_o do_v not_o see_v it_o which_o here_o be_v moral_o impossible_a for_o a_o physician_n be_v credit_n and_o consequent_o his_o profit_n depend_v on_o the_o goodness_n and_o success_n of_o his_o remedy_n the_o better_a his_o medicine_n be_v the_o great_a will_v be_v his_o gain_n the_o high_a his_o repute_n whereas_o the_o apothecary_n let_v his_o medicine_n be_v never_o so_o bad_a run_v little_a hazard_n the_o physician_n only_o be_v usual_o blame_v if_o they_o cause_v people_n to_o miscarry_v especial_o if_o the_o apothecary_n can_v confident_o affirm_v that_o his_o material_n be_v choice_n careful_o and_o skilful_o prepare_v which_o they_o be_v never_o backward_o to_o do_v add_v sometime_o such_o insinuation_n as_o have_v a_o tendency_n to_o disparage_v the_o physician_n and_o introduce_v themselves_o as_o be_v before_o intimate_v therefore_o now_o we_o proceed_v to_o show_v that_o physician_n can_v manage_v pharmacy_n second_o that_o if_o they_o proceed_v in_o such_o method_n as_o we_o shall_v mention_v or_o some_o other_o analogous_a great_a conveniency_n and_o advantage_n to_o the_o physician_n and_o patient_n nay_o even_o to_o the_o public_a will_v be_v the_o result_n of_o such_o procedure_v the_o proposal_n that_o we_o make_v be_v that_o either_o every_o physician_n prepare_v and_o dispense_v his_o own_o physic_n or_o that_o they_o enter_v into_o association_n either_o of_o which_o will_v be_v of_o great_a advantage_n to_o the_o public_a nothing_o can_v in_o my_o opinion_n be_v object_v against_o the_o first_o unless_o the_o physician_n himself_o pretend_v that_o it_o will_v be_v too_o great_a a_o trouble_n and_o divert_v he_o too_o much_o from_o his_o other_o employment_n of_o visit_v and_o advise_v the_o sick_a or_o consult_v in_o private_a with_o his_o book_n reason_n and_o experience_n as_o every_o honest_a physician_n do_v in_o order_n to_o the_o recovery_n and_o relief_n of_o his_o patient_n now_o to_o he_o that_o consider_v thing_n attentive_o this_o can_v be_v urge_v only_o by_o such_o physician_n as_o have_v a_o full_a employment_n which_o will_v afford_v they_o to_o keep_v in_o their_o own_o house_n or_o to_o have_v near_o they_o person_n skilful_a in_o pharmacy_n who_o only_a business_n it_o shall_v be_v to_o provide_v such_o medicine_n whether_o compound_v or_o simple_a as_o they_o shall_v have_v occasion_n to_o use_v in_o their_o practice_n the_o physician_n direct_v and_o supervise_v they_o so_o that_o suppose_v the_o apothecary_n skilful_a there_o will_v be_v little_a reason_n to_o fear_v miscarriage_n for_o the_o apothecary_n will_v have_v no_o temptation_n to_o be_v unfaithful_a because_o it_o will_v not_o benefit_v he_o his_o gain_n not_o be_v contingent_a as_o now_o depend_v on_o the_o quantity_n of_o physic_n he_o sell_v his_o salary_n be_v we_o suppose_v fix_v and_o certain_a but_o rather_o on_o the_o contrary_a it_o be_v his_o interest_n to_o have_v the_o physic_n as_o good_a as_o he_o can_v make_v it_o for_o the_o great_a success_n the_o physician_n have_v the_o more_o will_v be_v his_o employment_n and_o consequent_o he_o will_v be_v the_o better_a able_a to_o gratify_v the_o apothecary_n for_o his_o care_n and_o trouble_v in_o prepare_v the_o medicine_n he_o employ_v so_o successful_o but_o suppose_v the_o apothecary_n shall_v have_v bad_a design_n which_o yet_o he_o can_v never_o have_v so_o long_o as_o he_o be_v in_o his_o wit_n he_o will_v want_v opportunity_n to_o effect_v they_o himself_z and_o his_o medicine_n be_v almost_o continual_o under_o the_o physician_n inspection_n who_o allow_v no_o bad_a drug_n admittance_n into_o his_o operatory_n and_o may_v if_o he_o please_v see_v they_o mix_v and_o due_o prepare_v but_o physician_n will_v be_v free_v from_o much_o of_o this_o trouble_n if_o they_o take_v the_o advice_n of_o that_o late_a judicious_a writer_n we_o have_v already_o cite_v which_o be_v that_o the_o most_o eminent_a among_o they_o entertain_v in_o their_o house_n person_n of_o three_o or_o four_o year_n stand_v in_o either_o of_o our_o university_n who_o be_v to_o

when_o they_o be_v a_o little_a advance_v and_o study_v in_o this_o art_n may_v be_v appoint_v by_o the_o physician_n to_o observe_v patient_n in_o his_o absence_n and_o give_v he_o a_o account_n of_o their_o case_n by_o which_o mean_n he_o will_v be_v ignorant_a of_o nothing_o material_a although_o he_o be_v not_o there_o himself_o they_o may_v also_o visit_v their_o laboratory_n and_o look_v after_o the_o preparation_n of_o those_o medicine_n the_o physician_n prescribe_v which_o as_o it_o will_v much_o ease_v the_o ancient_a so_o it_o will_v be_v of_o great_a advantage_n to_o the_o young_a physician_n who_o while_o he_o employ_v his_o industry_n in_o such_o service_n as_o these_o for_o the_o elder_a gain_n beside_o what_o be_v learn_v from_o book_n and_o author_n his_o long_a
