of_o the_o star_n be_v otherwise_o affect_v than_o they_o be_v before_o and_o have_v new_a position_n may_v either_o increase_v or_o diminish_v their_o effect_n or_o else_o hinder_v they_o and_o

these_o be_v absent_a it_o will_v shine_v bright_a again_o they_o be_v not_o able_a to_o say_v that_o constellation_n which_o they_o have_v mark_v be_v cause_n of_o those_o effect_n which_o follow_v

it_o be_v in_o the_o low_a body_n more_o plain_o every_o earthly_a body_n have_v in_o it_o all_o the_o secret_a power_n and_o work_v of_o every_o particular_a star_n so_o that_o they_o make_v as_o

the_o way_n which_o they_o follow_v be_v take_v forth_o of_o the_o barren_a and_o uncertain_a rule_n of_o the_o old_a astrologer_n who_o do_v so_o ascribe_v unto_o every_o planet_n certain_a disease_n that_o if_o need_n shall_v requite_v they_o may_v refer_v the_o same_o disease_n unto_o any_o signicatour_n as_o in_o the_o plague_n the_o putrefaction_n of_o humour_n be_v attribute_v unto_o

the_o jaundice_n the_o inflammation_n and_o corruption_n of_o humour_n unto_o jupiter_n the_o yellow_a humour_n in_o the_o gall_n unto_o mars_n the_o obstruction_n of_o the_o part_n unto_o saturn_n the_o whole_a jaundice_n be_v white_a unto_o mars_n black_a unto_o saturn_n and_o so_o in_o every_o disease_n they_o use_v this_o inconstancy_n and_o ambiguity_n in_o prognosticate_a it_o be_v a_o rule_n among_o the_o astrologer_n that_o if_o the_o planet_n signifier_n of_o disease_n be_v well_o affect_v then_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o disease_n but_o health_n if_o they_o be_v evil_o affect_v than_o disease_n follow_v our_o prognosticatour_n never_o mark_v this_o rule_n but_o howsoever_o the_o planet_n be_v affect_v they_o straightways_o pronounce_v that_o such_o disease_n shall_v reign_v for_o example_n the_o last_o winter_n quarter_n it_o be_v say_v by_o one_o of_o they_o that_o the_o disease_n which_o shall_v afflict_v man_n body_n be_v rheum_n cough_n cold_a lask_n swell_v of_o
