A61877 An epistolary discourse concerning phlebotomy in opposition to G. Thomson pseudo-chymist, a pretended disciple of the Lord Verulam : wherein the nature of the blood, and the effects of blood-letting, are enquired into, and the practice thereof experimentally justified (according as it is used by judicious physicians) : [bracket] in the pest, and pestilential diseases, in the small pox, in the scurvey, in pleurisies, and in several other diseases / by Henry Stubbe ...

aegrotus_fw-la moritur_fw-la neither_o be_v this_o the_o only_a case_n in_o which_o a_o physician_n ought_v to_o practice_v phlebotomy_n but_o it_o may_v be_v do_v safe_o and_o warrantable_o if_o

all_o the_o inward_a part_n so_o that_o the_o danger_n be_v great_a here_o than_o upon_o the_o eruption_n of_o sweat_n moreover_o the_o sweat_n consist_v of_o a_o more_o subtle_a and_o ichorous_a

also_o to_o be_v consider_v that_o as_o a_o large_a evacuation_n by_o sweat_n may_v happy_o terminate_v a_o synochus_n so_o although_o the_o patient_n do_v abound_v with_o blood_n nature_n may_v sometime_o so_o expel_v and_o regulate_v the_o matter_n that_o the_o party_n may_v avoid_v the_o imminent_a peril_n but_o he_o that_o trust_v thereunto_o must_v well_o ponder_v not_o only_a how_o

not_o to_o mention_v other_o thing_n and_o as_o when_o sweat_n do_v not_o appear_v in_o due_a time_n due_a quantity_n with_o due_a qualification_n the_o patient_n do_v nevertheless_o die_v so_o we_o daily_o observe_v it_o to_o fall_v out_o in_o the_o come_n forth_o of_o the_o small_a pox._n and_o therefore_o i_o do_v assent_n unto_o the_o direction_n of_o avicenna_n and_o augenius_n that_o in_o
