all_o high_a sharp_a salt_n and_o thing_n of_o a_o sour_a or_o keen_a nature_n do_v rather_o cause_v the_o tooth_n to_o perish_v than_o the_o contrary_a as_o do_v all_o hot_a spirit_n be_v they_o what_o they_o will_v many_o have_v destroy_v their_o tooth_n by_o the_o frequent_a use_n of_o such_o thing_n and_o it_o have_v hardly_o ever_o be_v know_v that_o any_o such_o thing_n have_v ever_o

prepare_v the_o meat_n for_o their_o cattle_n and_o also_o how_o to_o preserve_v they_o from_o disorder_n than_o many_o physician_n do_v their_o food_n or_o physic_n and_o a_o man_n shall_v understand_v more_o by_o converse_v with_o some_o of_o this_o sort_n of_o people_n than_o with_o the_o learned_a for_o the_o shepherd_n and_o husbandman_n understand_v something_o of_o nature_n but_o most_o of_o the_o learned_a be_v depart_v from_o the_o simple_a way_n of_o god_n in_o nature_n put_v out_o their_o own_o eye_n and_o then_o boast_v what_o wonder_v they_o can_v see_v with_o other_o

the_o best_a and_o most_o sure_a way_n to_o prevent_v the_o disease_n and_o pain_n in_o the_o tooth_n and_o gum_n be_v every_o morning_n to_o wash_v your_o mouth_n with_o at_o the_o least_o ten_o or_o twelve_o mouthful_n of_o pure_a water_n cold_a from_o the_o spring_n or_o river_n and_o so_o again_o after_o dinner_n and_o supper_n swallow_v down_o a_o mouthful_n of_o water_n after_o each_o wash_v for_o there_o be_v no_o sort_n of_o liquor_n in_o the_o world_n so_o pure_a and_o clean_a as_o water_n and_o nothing_o do_v cleanse_v and_o free_v the_o tooth_n and_o gum_n from_o that_o foul_a matter_n which_o do_v proceed_v from_o the_o breathe_n and_o purge_n of_o the_o stomach_n and_o from_o the_o various_a sort_n of_o food_n so_o well_o as_o water_n the_o use_n of_o other_o washes_n be_v to_o little_a or_o no_o purpose_n but_o whosoever_o do_v constant_o wash_v their_o mouth_n with_o water_n as_o be_v before_o mention_v shall_v find_v a_o essential_a remedy_n all_o hard_o rub_v and_o pick_v of_o the_o tooth_n ought_v by_o any_o mean_n to_o be_v avoid_v for_o that_o be_v injurious_a to_o they_o also_o whensoever_o you_o find_v your_o mouth_n foul_a or_o subject_a to_o be_v slimy_a as_o sometime_o it_o will_v more_o than_o at_o other_o according_a to_o the_o good_a or_o evil_a state_n of_o the_o stomach_n though_o it_o be_v not_o after_o eat_v at_o all_o such_o time_n you_o ought_v to_o wash_v your_o mouth_n this_o rule_n all_o mother_n and_o nurse_n ought_v to_o observe_v wash_v the_o mouth_n of_o their_o child_n two_o or_o three_o time_n a_o day_n and_o also_o to_o cause_v their_o child_n to_o swallow_v down_o a_o little_a water_n which_o will_v be_v very_o refresh_v to_o their_o stomach_n for_o milk_n do_v natural_o foul_a and_o fur_n the_o mouth_n and_o tooth_n and_o if_o they_o be_v not_o keep_v clean_o by_o continual_a wash_n it_o cause_v the_o breed_n of_o child_n tooth_n to_o be_v the_o more_o painful_a to_o they_o 7._o to_o keep_v your_o tooth_n white_a one_o of_o the_o best_a thing_n be_v a_o piece_n of_o a_o china_n dish_n or_o a_o piece_n of_o a_o fine_a dutch_a earthen_a dish_n make_v into_o fine_a powder_n and_o the_o tooth_n rub_v with_o it_o 8._o few_o there_o be_v that_o understand_v or_o consider_v the_o excellent_a virtue_n of_o water_n it_o be_v a_o element_n of_o a_o mild_a and_o cleanse_a nature_n and_o operation_n friendly_a unto_o all_o thing_n and_o of_o universal_a use_n but_o because_o it_o be_v so_o common_a and_o so_o easy_o procure_v i_o be_o afraid_a that_o many_o people_n will_v be_v like_o naaman_n the_o syrian_a when_o the_o prophet_n elisha_n advise_v he_o to_o wash_v seven_o time_n in_o the_o river_n of_o jordan_n to_o cure_v his_o leprosy_n it_o be_v the_o ignorance_n and_o folly_n of_o most_o people_n to_o admire_v those_o thing_n they_o do_v not_o know_v and_o on_o the_o other_o side_n to_o despise_v and_o trample_v under_o foot_n those_o thing_n and_o mystery_n they_o do_v know_v which_o the_o learned_a in_o all_o age_n have_v take_v notice_n of_o for_o shall_v some_o people_n know_v what_o apothecary_n and_o other_o give_v they_o they_o will_v despise_v the_o physic_n and_o have_v but_o little_a respect_n for_o their_o doctor_n all_o housewife_n do_v know_v that_o no_o sort_n of_o liquor_n be_v it_o what_o it_o will_v will_v cleanse_v and_o sweeten_v their_o vessel_n but_o only_a water_n all_o other_o liquor_n leave_v a_o sour_a stink_a quality_n behind_o they_o which_o will_v quick_o cause_v putrefaction_n but_o water_n in_o its_o own_o nature_n be_v clean_a and_o pure_a not_o only_o for_o all_o use_v in_o housewifery_n and_o the_o preservation_n of_o health_n but_o the_o saint_n and_o holy_a man_n of_o god_n have_v high_o esteem_v this_o element_n by_o use_v it_o in_o the_o exterior_a act_n of_o divine_a worship_n as_o have_v a_o simile_n with_o the_o eternal_a water_n of_o life_n that_o do_v purify_v and_o cleanse_v the_o soul_n from_o sin_n
