method_n of_o cure_v poison_n consist_v in_o alteration_n by_o medicine_n which_o either_o in_o quality_n or_o in_o their_o whole_a substance_n be_v opposite_a to_o the_o poison_n it_o be_v my_o advice_n that_o we_o especial_o observe_v these_o two_o way_n of_o cure_v virulent_a disease_n and_o poison_n while_o we_o cure_v pestilential_a fever_n because_o see_v all_o poison_n of_o its_o own_o genuine_a property_n do_v first_o of_o all_o affect_v the_o heart_n the_o house_n and_o fountain_n of_o life_n and_o then_o be_v on_o a_o sudden_a disperse_v through_o all_o the_o bowel_n and_o habit_n of_o the_o body_n what_o be_v more_o necessary_a than_o that_o you_o shall_v first_o of_o all_o give_v assistence_n and_o relief_n to_o the_o heart_n by_o those_o alexipharmack_n which_o either_o in_o their_o quality_n or_o whole_a substance_n resist_v the_o destructive_a poison_n of_o the_o plague_n but_o if_o a_o bubo_n break_v out_o in_o the_o groin_n a_o imposthume_n in_o the_o armpit_n or_o a_o parotis_n behind_o the_o ear_n about_o the_o emunctory_n of_o the_o brain_n heart_n or_o liver_n or_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n a_o carbuncle_n bud_n out_o in_o the_o arm_n or_o leg_n then_o as_o in_o poisonous_a wound_n you_o must_v hasty_o apply_v medicine_n to_o the_o place_n affect_v which_o may_v draw_v out_o the_o venom_n and_o scarify_v the_o abscess_n before_o maturation_n or_o open_a or_o burn_v it_o with_o a_o actual_a or_o potential_a cautery_n if_o the_o patient_a fear_n fire_n which_o by_o their_o heat_n and_o burn_a virtue_n not_o only_o attract_v noxious_a humour_n but_o also_o often_o open_a gather_n make_v by_o they_o but_o whether_o beside_o these_o thing_n the_o noxious_a humour_n of_o this_o disease_n be_v to_o be_v evacuate_v by_o bleed_v or_o

from_o the_o take_n of_o the_o alexipharmack_n and_o when_o the_o sweat_n be_v end_v and_o the_o spirit_n refresh_v we_o may_v breathe_v a_o vein_n in_o the_o same_o side_n in_o some_o proper_a place_n under_o the_o abscess_n or_o carbuncle_n age_n and_o strength_n concur_v see_v phlebotomy_n not_o only_o draw_v out_o the_o infect_a humour_n but_o also_o open_v obstruction_n and_o abate_v the_o heat_n of_o the_o fever_n nor_o need_v you_o fear_v the_o revulsion_n of_o the_o humour_n inward_o when_o the_o abscess_n be_v cover_v with_o strong_a attractive_a medicine_n which_o resist_v revulsion_n wherefore_o galen_n and_o paul_n advise_v to_o begin_v the_o cure_n of_o a_o carbuncle_n with_o bleed_v till_o one_o swoon_n yet_o exclusive_o which_o i_o do_v not_o disapprove_v but_o whether_o strong_a purge_v in_o the_o cure_n of_o this_o fever_n be_v so_o convenient_a i_o can_v easy_o say_v because_o they_o do_v but_o the_o more_o disturb_v the_o noxious_a humour_n and_o disperse_v they_o through_o the_o whole_a body_n and_o draw_v they_o again_o inward_o and_o waste_v the_o strength_n and_o they_o participate_v also_o of_o a_o poisonous_a quality_n and_o use_v very_o often_o to_o cause_v a_o bloudyflux_n and_o looseness_n which_o be_v usual_o otherwise_o peculiar_a to_o this_o fever_n and_o for_o the_o most_o part_n be_v a_o mortal_a symptom_n wherewith_o all_o
