A91017	Popular errours. Or the errours of the people in physick, first written in Latine by the learned physitian James Primrose Doctor in Physick. Divided into foure bookes. viz. 1. The first treating concerning physicians. 2. The second of the errours about some diseases, and the knowledge of them. 3. The third of the errours about the diet; as well of the sound as of the sick. 4. The fourth of the errours of the people about the use of remedies. Profitable and necessary to be read of all. To which is added by the same authour his verdict concerning the antimoniall cuppe. Translated into English by Robert Wittie Doctor in Physick.; De vulgi in medicinâ erroribus. English.

do_v it_o must_v necessary_o follow_v that_o the_o cure_n be_v miraculous_a or_o else_o that_o it_o depend_v on_o the_o imagination_n of_o the_o sick_a but_o see_v the_o imagination_n of_o the_o

either_o miraculous_a or_o false_a or_o diabolical_a i_o scarce_o believe_v that_o it_o be_v miraculous_a the_o apostle_n and_o primitive_a christian_n do_v heal_v by_o touch_n alone_o to_o the_o

their_o rash_a boldness_n thus_o it_o be_v not_o lawful_a adventurous_o to_o attempt_v the_o work_n of_o miracle_n in_o like_a manner_n the_o power_n of_o cure_v the_o king_n evil_a be_v by_o the_o

not_o do_v see_v then_o this_o privilege_n be_v only_o vouchsafe_v to_o the_o aforesaid_a king_n and_o be_v whole_o perform_v in_o the_o name_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n if_o other_o king_n
