as_o for_o genus_fw-la it_o be_v a_o art_n as_o we_o show_v you_o before_o that_o medicine_n be_v a_o art_n the_o form_n be_v manifest_v in_o this_o word_n healing_n by_o which_o it_o be_v make_v to_o differ_v from_o other_o arts._n and_o i_o add_v the_o word_n well_o to_o show_v a_o difference_n betwixt_o the_o skilful_a physician_n and_o a_o mountebank_n and_o this_o definition_n contain_v not_o only_o all_o the_o part_n of_o medicine_n but_o also_o all_o the_o office_n of_o a_o physician_n iii_o alchemy_n be_v a_o art_n of_o dissolve_v all_o natural_a compound_v body_n from_o that_o whereof_o they_o natural_o consist_v thereby_o make_v they_o pure_a and_o strong_a and_o fit_a medicine_n for_o the_o physician_n use_n or_o may_v serve_v for_o the_o perfect_a and_o transmute_v of_o metal_n some_o hold_n alchemy_n to_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o separation_n of_o what_o be_v pure_a from_o what_o be_v impure_a but_o this_o be_v too_o general_a by_o half_a for_o a_o apothecary_n do_v so_o when_o he_o scrape_v the_o dirt_n off_o from_o root_n neither_o do_v he_o any_o less_o when_o he_o clarify_v and_o strain_n syrup_n and_o although_o it_o be_v true_a a_o alchemist_n do_v this_o yet_o be_v not_o his_o industry_n limit_v under_o such_o a_o bind_v as_o this_o be_v for_o his_o work_n be_v not_o only_o external_a but_o he_o penetrate_v to_o the_o internal_a part_n dissolve_v and_o separate_v natural_a body_n from_o what_o they_o natural_o consist_v of_o he_o sever_v what_o be_v profitable_a from_o what_o be_v unprofitable_a he_o purify_v alter_v and_o perfect_v all_o and_o if_o need_v be_v join_v they_o together_o again_o you_o have_v the_o definition_n the_o division_n follow_v chap._n 2._o of_o the_o definition_n of_o medicine_n and_o alchemy_n in_o general_n i._o medicine_n be_v either_o theorical_a or_o practical_a there_o be_v those_o that_o reject_v this_o definition_n as_o not_o accurate_a enough_o 1_o because_o by_o this_o mean_v it_o be_v not_o divide_v into_o opposite_a part_n 2_o because_o all_o medicine_n be_v one_o discipline_n and_o have_v but_o one_o habit_n namely_o practical_a and_o operative_a 3_o because_o all_o discipline_n take_v their_o denomination_n not_o from_o particular_a thing_n which_o be_v handle_v in_o they_o but_o from_o the_o subject_a and_o end_n to_o which_o they_o be_v direct_v 4_o because_o although_o some_o thing_n which_o be_v handle_v in_o medicine_n seem_v to_o belong_v to_o theorical_a discipline_n yet_o because_o all_o of_o they_o be_v not_o handle_v in_o respect_n of_o knowledge_n but_o direct_v to_o some_o common_a operation_n or_o end_n they_o be_v partly_o refer_v to_o the_o subject_a and_o partly_o to_o the_o end_n we_o think_v good_a to_o hold_v fast_o this_o definition_n not_o only_o because_o it_o be_v find_v in_o the_o school_n of_o physician_n but_o also_o confirm_v by_o reason_n and_o authority_n for_o both_o hypocrates_n and_o galen_n confess_v a_o physician_n ought_v to_o be_v a_o natural_a philosopher_n and_o the_o word_n naturalist_n and_o physician_n be_v the_o same_o and_o that_o natural_a philosophy_n be_v divide_v into_o theoric_n and_o practic_n we_o prove_v by_o these_o reason_n 1_o philosophy_n as_o the_o ancient_n very_o wise_o say_v be_v a_o kind_n of_o physic_n to_o cure_v the_o disease_n of_o the_o mind_n the_o disease_n of_o the_o mind_n may_v be_v divide_v into_o two_o part_n first_o dulness_n of_o the_o understanding_n the_o effect_n of_o which_o be_v ignorance_n of_o the_o truth_n second_o corruption_n of_o manner_n the_o effect_n of_o which_o be_v a_o vicious_a life_n the_o speculative_a part_n of_o philosophy_n be_v a_o medicine_n for_o the_o first_o the_o practical_a part_n for_o the_o last_o 2_o because_o every_o man_n natural_o desire_v knowledge_n both_o of_o those_o thing_n which_o pertain_v to_o humane_a action_n which_o the_o practice_n of_o moral_a philosophy_n will_v ample_o instruct_v you_o in_o as_o also_o of_o those_o thing_n which_o make_v for_o the_o find_v out_o of_o truth_n which_o knowledge_n speculative_a philosophy_n will_v bestow_v upon_o you_o 3_o because_o the_o subject_a of_o knowledge_n be_v the_o understanding_n which_o be_v two_o fold_n speculative_a and_o practic_n as_o aristotle_n well_o teach_v in_o his_o ethic_n therefore_o philosophy_n must_v also_o be_v two_o fold_n practic_n and_o speculative_a 4_o because_o the_o basis_n of_o philosophy_n be_v to_o direct_v the_o life_n of_o man_n in_o a_o happy_a way_n but_o to_o this_o belong_v both_o speculation_n and_o practice_n therefore_o philosophy_n be_v two_o fold_n viz._n speculative_a and_o practic_n 5_o because_o every_o learning_n tend_v to_o some_o good_a end_n to_o attain_v which_o be_v require_v knowledge_n which_o be_v the_o speculative_a part_n and_o operation_n which_o be_v the_o practic_n 6_o all_o learning_n be_v invent_v to_o direct_v those_o operation_n of_o man_n which_o be_v in_o our_o own_o power_n and_o so_o all_o vitiated_a by_o the_o fall_n of_o adam_n there_o be_v three_o sort_n of_o action_n then_o which_o may_v be_v rectify_v by_o learning_n 1_o the_o operation_n of_o the_o understanding_n which_o be_v rectify_v by_o speculative_a philosophy_n 2_o the_o operation_n of_o appetite_n both_o rational_a and_o sensitive_a which_o be_v rectify_v by_o moral_a philosophy_n 3_o very_o many_o other_o operation_n of_o man_n either_o inherent_a in_o their_o member_n as_o run_v and_o leap_v etc._n etc._n or_o act_v upon_o other_o thing_n as_o building_n paint_v etc._n etc._n and_o so_o both_o mechanical_a art_n as_o well_o as_o liberal_a be_v rectify_v by_o practic_n philosophy_n 7_o because_o the_o unity_n and_o distinction_n of_o knowledge_n be_v take_v from_o the_o uniny_o and_o distinction_n of_o the_o object_n but_o the_o object_n or_o matter_n of_o knowledge_n be_v three_o for_o they_o fall_v either_o under_o the_o action_n or_o effect_v or_o only_o under_o the_o knowledge_n for_o whatsoever_o be_v only_o speculative_a be_v not_o make_v only_o to_o look_v upon_o but_o to_o be_v produce_v to_o act_v or_o action_n hence_o you_o see_v that_o this_o division_n of_o philosophy_n into_o two_o part_n namely_o theoric_n and_o practic_n be_v very_o good_a and_o if_o of_o philosophy_n then_o of_o physic_n which_o indeed_o be_v but_o the_o put_n of_o philosophy_n into_o practice_n the_o one_o be_v essential_a the_o other_o remote_a ii_o theory_n be_v the_o remote_a or_o more_o common_a part_n of_o medicine_n deliver_v a_o certain_a method_n both_o of_o medicinal_a matter_n and_o preserve_v the_o health_n of_o man._n it_o be_v indeed_o to_o speak_v brief_o the_o proaemium_fw-la or_o preparation_n to_o practice_n it_o consist_v in_o the_o knowledge_n of_o thing_n natural_a both_o general_n and_o special_a as_o also_o of_o thing_n against_o nature_n iii_o practice_n be_v the_o next_o and_o essential_a part_n of_o medicine_n give_v a_o reason_n of_o the_o mean_n both_o of_o preserve_v and_o restore_v health_n this_o come_v to_o the_o very_a operation_n and_o end_n of_o medicine_n and_o indeed_o be_v the_o very_a essence_n of_o it_o it_o stir_v up_o nature_n incite_v she_o to_o action_n tell_v she_o what_o must_v be_v do_v it_o administer_v aid_v to_o nature_n where_o she_o be_v too_o weak_a and_o rout_v her_o enemy_n when_o they_o be_v too_o strong_a for_o she_o iv._o the_o part_n of_o practical_a medicine_n be_v two_o first_o call_v not_o natural_a second_o proper_a or_o method_n of_o cure_n this_o be_v galen_n division_n namely_o first_o of_o all_o concern_v the_o use_n of_o thing_n not_o natural_a which_o respect_v most_o the_o diet_n and_o order_n of_o the_o body_n second_o the_o method_n of_o cure_v which_o concern_v the_o administration_n of_o necessary_a medicine_n for_o a_o physician_n consider_v that_o his_o duty_n be_v no_o less_o to_o look_v after_o present_a health_n than_o to_o restore_v it_o when_o it_o be_v lose_v therefore_o although_o thing_n not_o natural_a appertain_v to_o the_o theorical_a part_n yet_o in_o this_o respect_n it_o be_v broughr_fw-mi into_o practice_n and_o be_v make_v the_o first_o part_n of_o it_o for_o as_o theory_n be_v to_o be_v consider_v under_o a_o double_a nature_n namely_o as_o a_o man_n be_v either_o healthful_a or_o sick_a so_o practise_v work_n upon_o both_o these_o nature_n namely_o thing_n not_o natural_a to_o preserve_v health_n thing_n medicinal_a to_o cure_v disease_n moreover_o the_o medicinal_a part_n of_o physic_n be_v double_a general_n and_o special_a general_n which_o show_v the_o method_n of_o cure_v special_a which_o show_v the_o instrument_n to_o cure_v by_o v._o alchemy_n or_o hermetical_a philosophy_n be_v theoric_n and_o practic_n theoric_n by_o paracelsian_n be_v divide_v into_o vital_a and_o local_a by_o vital_a they_o understand_v thing_n natural_a by_o local_a thing_n against_o nature_n vi_o practical_a
