A16823	The pisse-prophet, or, Certaine pisse-pot lectures Wherein are newly discovered the old fallacies, deceit, and jugling of the pisse-pot science, used by all those (whether quacks and empiricks, or other methodicall physicians) who pretend knowledge of diseases, by the urine, in giving judgement of the same. By Tho. Brian, M.P. lately in the citie of London, and now in Colchester in Essex. Never heretofore published by any man in the English tongue.

no_o now_o to_o be_v see_v in_o this_o water_n because_o her_o body_n be_v all_o out_o of_o temper_n and_o her_o water_n trouble_v and_o discolour_a but_o yet_o i_o think_v she_o to_o be_v and_o

to_o some_o of_o her_o near_a friend_n how_o dangerous_o she_o be_v sick_a and_o that_o i_o will_v if_o she_o think_v good_a to_o make_v use_n of_o i_o use_v the_o best_a mean_n to_o recover_v she_o that_o art_n can_v lead_v i_o unto_o and_o now_o i_o bid_v she_o make_v all_o the_o haste_n that_o may_v be_v but_o yet_o before_o i_o let_v she_o go_v i_o thus_o bespeak_v she_o in_o faith_n nurse_n i_o commend_v thou_o that_o thou_o will_v do_v thy_o errand_n handsome_o and_o make_v a_o physician_n find_v the_o disease_n out_o of_o the_o water_n and_o not_o be_v gull_v to_o tell_v how_o the_o

so_o i_o shall_v be_v sure_a to_o have_v my_o message_n well_o do_v and_o perhaps_o she_o will_v tell_v i_o that_o which_o she_o deny_v before_o but_o if_o not_o she_o will_v magnify_v i_o for_o my_o

and_o laugh_v at_o she_o and_o the_o devil_n at_o we_o both_o i_o laugh_v at_o she_o because_o i_o have_v cozen_v she_o and_o the_o devil_n that_o he_o have_v cozen_v we_o both_o by_o make_v she_o

you_o have_v say_v it_o be_v a_o very_a difficult_a matter_n indeed_o to_o find_v out_o disease_n by_o the_o sight_n of_o the_o urine_n only_o but_o these_o your_o word_n imply_v that_o it_o may_v

have_v write_v thus_o to_o your_o patient_n sir_n it_o be_v impossible_a to_o give_v true_a judgement_n of_o disease_n by_o the_o sight_n of_o the_o urine_n only_o which_o be_v but_o one_o of_o the_o

to_o maintain_v this_o your_o pretend_a skill_n though_o you_o be_v conscious_a to_o yourself_o that_o you_o be_v a_o knave_n for_o your_o labour_n than_o you_o will_v have_v your_o skill_n question_v

you_o must_v often_o frustrate_v the_o desire_n and_o expectation_n of_o your_o patient_n which_o you_o may_v do_v and_o yet_o give_v they_o content_v too_o if_o you_o carry_v the_o matter_n

of_o these_o word_n you_o know_v not_o i_o answer_v unto_o this_o that_o you_o do_v not_o from_o the_o water_n gather_v this_o but_o from_o his_o complexion_n and_o constitution_n of_o body_n which_o
