i_o therefore_o think_v it_o my_o duty_n to_o prevent_v this_o evil_a and_o to_o hinder_v it_o as_o much_o as_o lie_v in_o i_o in_o regard_n of_o my_o profession_n the_o which_o beyond_o that_o

of_o galen_n and_o all_o other_o author_n both_o ancient_n and_o modern_a and_o what_o do_v it_o serve_v he_o to_o call_v such_o new_a wound_n to_o derogate_v from_o the_o say_n of_o hypocrates_n who_o we_o hold_v to_o be_v the_o father_n author_n and_o founder_n of_o the_o law_n of_o sacred_a medicine_n which_o be_v worthy_a of_o all_o esteem_n and_o praise_n above_o all_o other_o because_o
