not_o high_a base_a to_o commit_v a_o error_n because_o it_o be_v the_o begin_n of_o wisdom_n but_o to_o cherish_v error_n be_v madness_n in_o the_o high_a degree_n iv._o a_o physician_n ought_v to_o

may_v give_v these_o gift_n even_o to_o wicked_a man_n yet_o this_o we_o say_v a_o true_a physician_n deserve_v praise_n as_o well_o as_o reward_v and_o this_o we_o affirm_v be_v the_o property_n of_o a_o good_a honest_a and_o prudent_a physician_n not_o to_o gape_v after_o reward_n like_o a_o stage-player_n but_o to_o be_v content_a with_o what_o be_v give_v he_o menecrates_z the_o sicilian_a

for_o although_o he_o that_o know_v any_o thing_n know_v well_o enough_o that_o a_o man_n may_v give_v physic_n well_o if_o he_o have_v it_o whether_o he_o have_v estate_n or_o not_o and_o that_o the_o estate_n of_o a_o physician_n conduce_v not_o a_o whit_n to_o make_v he_o either_o the_o more_o know_v or_o less_o know_v but_o it_o enable_v he_o wherewithal_o to_o get_v fit_a medicine_n to_o give_v what_o good_a do_v a_o man_n knowledge_n do_v he_o unless_o he_o bring_v it_o into_o practice_n so_o then_o a_o physician_n take_v he_o as_o a_o student_n he_o need_v no_o estate_n but_o take_v he_o as_o a_o practitioner_n he_o do_v neither_o indeed_o be_v it_o convenient_a that_o a_o man_n who_o nature_n have_v enrich_v with_o knowledge_n shall_v want_v wherwithal_o to_o put_v it_o in_o
