my_o judgement_n that_o disease_n be_v more_o infectious_a which_o in_o our_o time_n we_o call_v the_o french_a pock_n because_o of_o either_o the_o beginning_n or_o propagation_n and_o spread_v from_o thence_o and_o the_o which_o joan._n manard_n judge_v to_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o elephantiasis_n 1._o but_o not_o true_o in_o my_o judgement_n albeit_o that_o it_o be_v not_o so_o dangerous_a especial_o at_o this_o day_n when_o as_o the_o force_n thereof_o wax_v weak_a by_o little_a and_o little_a so_o that_o we_o may_v hope_v that_o it_o will_v at_o length_n cease_v altogether_o as_o of_o the_o tetter_n which_o pliny_n mention_v there_o remain_v at_o this_o day_n no_o token_n but_o as_o concern_v the_o elephantiacall_a lepri_fw-mi i_o have_v often_o diligent_o inquire_v of_o they_o which_o be_v disease_v with_o it_o but_o i_o can_v seldom_o understande_v that_o any_o be_v infect_v by_o their_o company_n albeit_o those_o that_o be_v sound_o be_v often_o conversaunt_a with_o they_o dephthis_n nay_o that_o which_o be_v more_o wonder_n albeit_o the_o sick_a husband_n use_v the_o company_n of_o their_o sound_a wife_n &_o some_o time_n beget_v sound_o child_n which_o shall_v be_v incredible_a if_o the_o force_n of_o the_o infection_n be_v so_o great_a as_o it_o be_v think_v of_o many_o for_o to_o be_v which_o thing_n since_o they_o be_v so_o and_o yet_o nevertheless_o they_o be_v put_v apart_o from_o the_o company_n of_o other_o and_o that_o with_o great_a carefulness_n for_o what_o danger_n soever_o of_o infection_n or_o at_o leastwise_o suspicion_n of_o infection_n i_o say_v again_o that_o which_o i_o have_v often_o say_v already_o that_o there_o must_v far_o more_o care_n be_v use_v in_o the_o infection_n of_o the_o plague_n but_o these_o thing_n peradventure_o may_v seem_v more_o at_o large_a debate_v than_o be_v meet_v which_o the_o indifferent_a reader_n will_v easy_o pardon_v i_o if_o he_o shall_v consider_v that_o it_o be_v not_o unprofitable_a that_o sometime_o we_o be_v put_v in_o mind_n of_o sundry_a matter_n for_o this_o thing_n stir_v up_o wise_a man_n to_o a_o more_o diligent_a search_v out_o of_o truth_n which_o truth_n as_o pythagoras_n say_v be_v drown_v and_o hide_a in_o a_o most_o deep_a well_o a_o admonition_n unto_o every_o subject_n of_o the_o common_a wealth_n to_o employ_v his_o service_n to_o keep_v away_o the_o common_a danger_n of_o infection_n by_o the_o plague_n cap._n 8._o but_o peradventure_o there_o will_v not_o some_o be_v want_v who_o with_o discontent_a mind_n will_v speak_v against_o these_o our_o constitution_n or_o order_n either_o for_o that_o through_o lack_n of_o judgement_n they_o can_v thorough_o weigh_v and_o understand_v the_o matter_n or_o for_o because_o they_o can_v away_o with_o such_o counsel_n whereby_o they_o perceive_v themselves_o to_o be_v bring_v into_o order_n for_o the_o common_a sort_n use_v to_o be_v unwilling_a to_o bear_v all_o yoke_n but_o these_o be_v forthwith_o to_o have_v their_o answer_n god_n as_o for_o those_o who_o persuade_v themselves_o that_o the_o plague_n come_v always_o immediate_o from_o god_n as_o a_o peculiar_a and_o immediate_a whip_n and_o therefore_o attribute_v nothing_o unto_o the_o help_n of_o man_n i_o can_v do_v no_o more_o but_o counsel_n these_o to_o suffer_v themselves_o to_o be_v better_o instruct_v such_o as_o can_v abide_v no_o order_n set_v themselves_o open_o against_o our_o preserver_n and_o will_v urge_v or_o be_v earnest_n for_o their_o old_a custom_n &_o liberty_n these_o i_o will_v altogether_o have_v admonish_v to_o consider_v that_o they_o alone_o be_v not_o here_o provide_v for_o but_o also_o their_o wife_n child_n &_o kinsfolk_n yea_o the_o whole_a society_n and_o fellowship_n what_o barbarousnes_n then_o shall_v it_o be_v to_o be_v unwilling_a for_o a_o small_a time_n to_o bear_v that_o which_o thou_o may_v safe_o do_v to_o the_o end_n thou_o may_v be_v deliver_v from_o it_o which_o if_o it_o happen_v unto_o thou_o thou_o can_v not_o bear_v but_o with_o the_o hazard_n of_o thy_o life_n go_v to_o who_o will_v not_o willing_o in_o the_o time_n of_o war_n or_o in_o the_o
