reason_n can_v be_v true_a which_o be_v contradict_v by_o experience_n nor_o on_o the_o contrary_a that_o be_v they_o must_v both_o be_v true_a and_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v find_v out_o by_o they_o but_o when_o they_o thwart_v one_o the_o other_o of_o necessity_n either_o the_o experience_n must_v have_v be_v inartificial_a or_o the_o opposite_a reason_n must_v only_o be_v apparent_o true_a whereon_o we_o must_v not_o rely_v nor_o for_o it_o must_v we_o depart_v from_o our_o sense_n and_o experience_n and_o therefore_o there_o be_v no_o reason_n without_o experience_n both_o experience_n without_o reason_n be_v invalid_a and_o reason_n without_o it_o be_v fallacious_a and_o captious_a though_o the_o pre-eminence_n between_o they_o two_o be_v doubtful_a for_o experience_n know_v few_o disease_n and_o those_o which_o come_v often_o and_o frequent_o but_o reason_n do_v as_o well_o help_v rare_a disease_n which_o it_o never_o see_v before_o as_o common_a one_o because_o it_o search_v out_o the_o nature_n difference_n and_o cause_n of_o all_o by_o discourse_n and_o ratiocination_n or_o it_o comprehend_v thing_n by_o scientifick_a knowledge_n or_o at_o least_o by_o artificial_a conjecture_n yet_o by_o a_o sure_a one_o and_o that_o which_o be_v next_o to_o science_n beside_o experience_v only_o acquire_v those_o thing_n which_o often_o happen_v in_o the_o same_o manner_n and_o see_v all_o the_o simple_a and_o compound_a disease_n of_o all_o part_n similar_v and_o organic_n can_v be_v bring_v together_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o there_o can_v be_v experience_n of_o they_o all_o but_o only_o of_o the_o frequent_a one_o and_o therefore_o it_o of_o itself_o do_v not_o comprehend_v or_o reach_v either_o the_o knowledge_n or_o cure_n of_o several_a disease_n beside_o some_o frequent_a disease_n come_v without_o any_o concourse_n of_o symptom_n and_o can_v be_v know_v but_o by_o conjecture_n and_o a_o tentative_a cure_n and_o therefore_o in_o this_o way_n of_o proceed_v only_a reason_n can_v obtain_v the_o knowledge_n which_o be_v seek_v after_o and_o experience_v not_o know_v the_o power_n of_o the_o try_v remedy_n join_v and_o compare_v it_o with_o the_o follow_a operation_n and_o thence_o it_o easy_o guess_v and_o it_o get_v as_o much_o knowledge_n of_o the_o disease_n by_o thing_n hurtful_a and_o order_n the_o whole_a cure_n but_o not_o that_o experience_n which_o know_v not_o the_o virtue_n of_o remedy_n take_v any_o thing_n for_o the_o cure_n without_o judgement_n so_o that_o if_o the_o business_n succeed_v not_o at_o first_o he_o know_v not_o whither_o he_o must_v go_v but_o by_o blind_a chance_n and_o fortune_n run_v to_o another_o thing_n but_o however_o it_o be_v that_o reason_n dictate_v these_o and_o the_o like_a thing_n to_o
