account_n of_o he_o or_o her_o disease_n and_o the_o best_a advice_n i_o can_v give_v they_o but_o if_o they_o expect_v to_o receive_v any_o benefit_n by_o advice_n or_o medicine_n they_o must_v

of_o sloth_n and_o ill_a custom_n they_o must_v expect_v a_o long_a train_n of_o misery_n in_o a_o short_a life_n and_o will_v entail_v their_o disease_n on_o their_o progeny_n but_o at_o length_n

the_o best_a though_o cruel_a reformer_n have_v tether_v i_o for_o many_o year_n to_o a_o severe_a solitary_a but_o successful_a course_n of_o life_n i_o can_v now_o no_o more_o recreate_v myself_o

have_v not_o one_o knot_a joint_n and_o but_o seldom_o a_o bloody_a urine_n and_o here_o i_o can_v affirm_v upon_o certain_a knowledge_n that_o the_o less_o flesh_n a_o man_n eat_v and_o the_o less_o he_o drink_v of_o fermented_a liquor_n and_o the_o more_o exercise_n he_o use_v if_o the_o stone_n be_v not_o too_o big_a to_o pass_v the_o seldomer_n he_o shall_v be_v seize_v with_o either_o gout_n or_o stone_n and_o as_o for_o wine_n beer_n and_o ale_n the_o more_o they_o recede_v from_o the_o nature_n of_o water_n the_o worse_a and_o more_o unwholesome_a they_o be_v for_o ordinary_a drink_n water_n be_v the_o common_a drink_n both_o for_o man_n and_o beast_n in_o the_o first_o age_n of_o the_o world_n from_o the_o creation_n to_o the_o flood_n for_o 1600_o year_n when_o the_o life_n of_o man_n be_v prolong_v to_o near_o 1000_o year_n but_o after_o the_o use_v of_o wine_n they_o be_v contract_v to_o near_a a_o ten_o part._n the_o roman_n for_o the_o space_n of_o 440_o year_n drink_v nothing_o but_o water_n and_o now_o the_o ordinary_a people_n in_o italy_n drink_v nothing_o else_o and_o the_o rich_a citizen_n there_o be_v much_o delight_v with_o it_o and_o in_o france_n it_o be_v count_v a_o foul_a crime_n for_o virgin_n to_o drink_v any_o thing_n but_o water_n and_o it_o be_v well_o if_o it_o be_v more_o in_o use_n in_o england_n among_o the_o young_a sort_n and_o i_o must_v tell_v young_a man_n and_o woman_n of_o gouty_a parentage_n how_o brisk_a and_o taper_n soever_o they_o may_v look_v in_o the_o bloom_n of_o life_n if_o they_o do_v bestir_v themselves_o daily_o and_o drink_v some_o water_n every_o day_n and_o keep_v to_o a_o low_a diet_n they_o must_v expect_v the_o gout_n and_o stone_n too_o before_o they_o come_v to_o be_v old_a and_o will_v soon_o if_o care_n be_v not_o take_v become_v unwieldy_a and_o unable_a to_o stir_v for_o they_o have_v luxuriant_a body_n and_o if_o they_o will_v lay_v a_o good_a foundation_n for_o health_n and_o long_a life_n they_o shall_v never_o drink_v any_o vinous_a liquor_n but_o for_o real_a weakness_n and_o real_a sickness_n and_o then_o only_o in_o the_o manner_n of_o physic_n and_o here_o i_o will_v say_v that_o if_o drink_v some_o water_n every_o day_n and_o live_v chief_o on_o herb_n and_o root_n tea_n and_o small_a beer_n will_v have_v kill_v a_o old_a gouty_a man_n i_o have_v be_v lay_v in_o the_o silent_a

that_o i_o will_v persuade_v old_a man_n that_o have_v weaken_v their_o body_n by_o drink_v much_o wine_n to_o leave_v it_o off_o this_o will_v be_v a_o great_a and_o dangerous_a error_n on_o the_o other_o hand_n these_o unhappy_a old_a man_n must_v use_v the_o best_a mean_n to_o keep_v the_o gout_n from_o the_o principal_a part_n for_o if_o it_o strike_v in_o and_o can_v be_v soon_o drive_v
