there_o be_v many_o receipt_n by_o author_n set_v forth_o in_o print_n but_o i_o can_v never_o find_v any_o certainty_n in_o they_o i_o dare_v say_v there_o be_v so_o many_o way_n invent_v for_o the_o

be_v never_o equal_a both_o in_o cold_a and_o heat_n second_o sometime_o the_o afflict_a planet_n be_v weak_a in_o the_o heaven_n and_o sometime_o strong_a which_o must_v be_v consider_v in_o the_o cure_n three_o the_o age_n and_o complexion_n of_o the_o patient_n must_v be_v take_v notice_n of_o last_o you_o must_v by_o a_o fi●ure_n discover_v whether_o any_o witchcraft_n or_o sorcery_n have_v be_v wrought_v upon_o the_o patient_n or_o from_o what_o natural_a cause_n the_o sickness_n begin_v i_o shall_v now_o brief_o discover_v the_o reason_n of_o each_o kind_n of_o ague_n or_o quotidian_n infirmity_n and_o then_o set_v forth_o the_o way_n of_o cure_n as_o follow_v i_o shall_v begin_v with_o the_o quotidian_n ague_n which_o usual_o assault_v the_o patient_n daily_o near_o one_o and_o the_o same_o hour_n at_o which_o time_n as_o also_o in_o tertian_n and_o quartan_n the_o sick_a usual_o be_v trouble_v with_o wind_n and_o cold_a watery_a phlegmatic_a matter_n settle_v at_o the_o stomach_n which_o at_o the_o first_o beginning_n of_o the_o fit_n cause_v a_o shiver_a after_o which_o follow_v a_o feverish_a burn_a hot_a fit_n also_o i_o find_v that_o not_o only_o the_o quotidian_n ague_n but_o also_o there_o be_v many_o other_o infirmity_n as_o appoplexy_n convultion_n palpitation_n rise_n in_o the_o throat_n and_o stop_n at_o the_o breast_n and_o stomach_n and_o some_o kind_n of_o evil_n which_o daily_o begin_v to_o afflict_v the_o patient_n near_o the_o same_o hour_n now_o upon_o observation_n upon_o all_o these_o kind_n of_o daily_a ague_n or_o infirmity_n before_o mention_v i_o constant_o find_v that_o the_o sign_n ascend_v at_o or_o near_o the_o begin_n of_o each_o fit_a together_o with_o its_o lord_n do_v exact_o personate_v the_o sick_a and_o without_o doubt_n be_v their_o proper_a ascendant_n at_o their_o birth_n by_o virtue_n of_o which_o ascendant_n together_o with_o the_o six_o and_o twelve_o house_n and_o their_o lord_n afflict_v i_o always_o discover_v the_o grief_n with_o its_o cause_n and_o termination_n the_o truth_n be_v except_o a_o figure_n be_v set_v for_o either_o the_o time_n of_o decumbiture_n or_o first_o fit_n or_o some_o other_o strong_a fit_a there_o can_v be_v no_o true_a discovery_n make_v from_o what_o cause_n it_o begin_v and_o if_o the_o true_a cause_n be_v not_o know_v there_o can_v be_v no_o certainty_n in_o cure_n for_o although_o the_o moon_n in_o acute_a and_o the_o sun_n in_o chronic_a sickness_n by_o the_o planet_n afflict_v do_v general_o discover_v each_o distemper_n with_o its_o cause_n yet_o in_o these_o particular_a infirmity_n as_o quotidian_n grief_n before_o mention_v i_o find_v by_o experience_n that_o the_o fit_n have_v constant_o keep_v their_o course_n and_o have_v be_v very_o strong_a when_o neither_o sun_n or_o moon_n have_v be_v afflict_v wherefore_o it_o appear_v that_o the_o sign_n or_o constellation_n under_o which_o the_o patient_n be_v bear_v which_o sign_n we_o usual_o call_v the_o ascendant_n do_v whole_o reflect_v upon_o the_o patient_n both_o at_o the_o beginning_n and_o durance_n of_o their_o daily_a fit_n aforesaid_a and_o true_o i_o find_v even_o as_o in_o quotidian_n ague_n and_o other_o infirmity_n aforesaid_a so_o likewise_o in_o evil_n the_o ascendant_n do_v usual_o personate_v the_o sick_a more_o especial_o when_o the_o fit_n be_v usual_o near_o one_o hour_n or_o at_o the_o time_n when_o the_o patient_n undergo_v any_o strong_a pain_n or_o torment_v more_o than_o other_o for_o such_o be_v the_o subtlety_n of_o the_o devil_n that_o he_o know_v each_o body_n ascendant_n can_v thereby_o the_o better_a instruct_v the_o witch_n how_o to_o frame_v the_o image_n that_o so_o it_o may_v thereby_o work_v the_o strong_a upon_o the_o patient_n when_o the_o sign_n ascend_v and_o by_o that_o mean_v the_o witch_n may_v by_o the_o rule_n of_o astrology_n be_v the_o more_o easy_a discover_v and_o ofttimes_o be_v thereby_o detect_v for_o it_o be_v well_o know_v unto_o many_o that_o in_o a_o philosophical_a way_n when_o a_o talesman_n be_v frame_v for_o the_o destruction_n of_o vermin_n as_o instance_n the_o scorpion_n the_o way_n to_o make_v it_o be_v when_o the_o sign_n scorpio_n ascend_v etc._n etc._n concern_v the_o tertian_n ague_n the_o tertian_n ague_n usual_o keep_v one_o hour_n as_o the_o quotidian_n ague_n do_v only_o there_o be_v one_o day_n respite_n between_o now_o i_o find_v that_o in_o tertian_n and_o quartan_a ague_n the_o moon_n be_v much_o to_o be_v regard_v for_o from_o the_o time_n of_o the_o first_o fit_n which_o may_v probable_o be_v call_v the_o time_n of_o decumbiture_n the_o place_n of_o the_o moon_n in_o the_o zodiac_n must_v be_v observe_v and_o so_o by_o account_n according_a unto_o the_o critical_a figure_n of_o sixteen_o equal_a part_n what_o the_o critical_a figure_n be_v and_o how_o frame_v i_o have_v show_v more_o at_o large_a elsewhere_o each_o fit_n do_v answer_v unto_o the_o intercedental_a judical_a and_o critical_a day_n and_o time_n and_o so_o the_o second_o fit_n make_v the_o intercedental_a time_n the_o three_o fit_v the_o judical_a time_n the_o four_o the_o second_o intercedental_a time_n the_o five_o the_o crsis_n and_o so_o you_o may_v go_v round_o the_o zodiac_n after_o which_o the_o grief_n be_v chronic_a and_o may_v unhappy_o continue_v a_o long_a time_n if_o not_o cure_v note_v that_o notwithstanding_o by_o account_n according_a unto_o the_o critical_a figure_n of_o its_o equal_a part_n there_o be_v but_o 22._o deg_n 30._o min._n allot_v for_o two_o

what_o degree_n be_v allot_v unto_o the_o orb_n or_o influence_n of_o the_o moon_n it_o will_v sufficient_o satisfy_v those_o degree_n in_o question_n now_o as_o in_o the_o quotidian_n ague_n so_o in_o this_o if_o you_o fear_v sorcery_n or_o witchcraft_n and_o make_v doubt_n of_o the_o true_a cause_n of_o the_o ague_n a_o figure_n set_v for_o the_o time_n of_o the_o first_o or_o any_o other_o
