the_o manual_a part_n of_o the_o work_n in_o amputate_v in_o a_o mortify_a place_n and_o for_o the_o do_v of_o it_o in_o the_o whole_a part_n i_o refer_v the_o reader_n to_o what_o i_o have_v former_o in_o my_o first_o edition_n in_o the_o surgeon_n mate_n explain_v which_o together_o with_o this_o postscript_n i_o conceive_v may_v satisfy_v any_o indifferent_a reader_n only_o one_o observation_n more_o as_o in_o charity_n to_o the_o patient_n and_o the_o young_a surgeon_n i_o think_v fit_a to_o acquaint_v the_o young_a surgeon_n with_o what_o my_o experience_n show_v i_o and_o that_o be_v that_o after_o any_o amputation_n either_o in_o the_o sound_n or_o mortify_a part_n the_o first_o esker_n or_o cadaverous_a sloughesbeing_n remove_v and_o the_o ulcer_n reasonable_o digest_v mondify_v and_o somewhat_o incarnate_a the_o patient_n use_v ever_o to_o be_v exceed_o sensible_a and_o grievous_o tender_a and_o also_o flesh_n be_v subject_a on_o the_o sudden_a to_o grow_v overfast_a and_o the_o stump_n be_v subject_a to_o turn_v cancrous_a or_o at_o the_o least_o very_a dolorous_a for_o remedy_n whereof_o i_o use_v for_o one_o dress_v to_o have_v pledgent_n of_o fine_a tow_n make_v ready_a beforehand_o so_o much_o as_o will_v cover_v the_o whole_a ulcer_n and_o have_v ordinary_a good_a strong_a unguent_n aegyptiacum_n without_o sublimate_n seethe_v hot_a in_o a_o small_a flat_a pewter_n or_o stone_n dish_n dip_v the_o pledgent_n therein_o be_v very_o exceed_o hot_a and_o sudden_o apply_v so_o hot_a to_o the_o ulcer_n and_o bind_v with_o another_o thick_a pledgent_n to_o keep_v it_o warm_v bound_v it_o up_o and_o dress_v it_o no_o more_o in_o 48_o hour_n and_o for_o the_o next_o dress_n cover_v the_o ulcer_n only_o with_o soft_a lint_n and_o likewise_o in_o all_o other_o dress_n provide_v by_o thick_a pledgent_n of_o tow_n ever_o to_o keep_v the_o stump_n very_o warm_a and_o that_o one_o only_o dress_v as_o aforesaid_a of_o aegyptiacum_n will_v whole_o take_v away_o the_o tenderness_n and_o very_o much_o conduce_v to_o true_a heal_n which_o a_o fortnight_n after_o if_o need_v be_v may_v be_v reiterated_a and_o as_o touch_v amputation_n to_o be_v perform_v in_o the_o mortify_a place_n for_o that_o the_o cure_n differ_v nothing_o from_o that_o in_o common_a use_n for_o the_o heal_n of_o ulcer_n in_o general_n as_o be_v say_v therefore_o if_o the_o
