Of cold water, in the cure of the gout, and green-wounds. Of wine-vineger, in the preservation from, and cure of the plague, and other pestilential diseases: as also in the prevention of the hydrophobia, or dread of water, caused by the biting of a mad dog. &c.

some_o special_a happy_a omen_n that_o i_o fall_v upon_o this_o persuasion_n that_o many_o kind_n of_o fresh_a wound_n all_o cold_a water_n very_o safe_o cure_v all_o green_a wound_n without_o any_o

that_o by_o mean_n of_o this_o immersion_n into_o or_o application_n of_o the_o say_v cold_a water_n the_o blood_n be_v repel_v very_o far_o back_o and_o its_o vessel_n be_v by_o this_o mean_v close_v

weakness_n will_v there_o be_v both_o receive_v and_o through_o the_o heat_n and_o pain_n of_o the_o say_a part_n will_v be_v also_o draw_v thither_o and_o will_v dispose_v the_o same_o towards_o the_o generation_n of_o purulent_a matter_n and_o sometime_o also_o will_v cause_v a_o impostumation_n or_o a_o ery●pelas_n neither_o of_o which_o be_v at_o all_o here_o to_o be_v fear_v as_o it_o often_o use_v to_o happen_v when_o the_o periostium_fw-la or_o thin_a skin_n that_o immediate_o enwrappe_v the_o shinbone_n be_v inflame_v by_o a_o wound_n or_o bruise_v so_o that_o the_o neighbour_a part_n come_v thereby_o to_o gangrene_n and_o putrify_v and_o all_o life_n in_o they_o be_v quite_o extinct_a and_o afterward_o by_o degree_n all_o life_n also_o throughout_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o whole_a body_n the_o carcase_n be_v in_o the_o end_n bring_v to_o the_o grave_n and_o these_o accident_n which_o sometim_n befall_v young_a people_n but_o old_a folk_n very_o often_o i_o have_v the_o more_o large_o dilate_v upon_o that_o man_n may_v take_v the_o better_a notice_n of_o the_o most_o evident_a danger_n in_o this_o case_n which_o yet_o by_o so_o facile_a and_o a_o ready_a remedy_n may_v easy_o be_v avoid_v for_o it_o be_v very_o certain_a that_o the_o aforesaid_a immersion_n in_o cold_a water_n if_o it_o be_v due_o make_v use_n of_o so_o soon_o as_o the_o wound_n be_v receive_v or_o else_o within_o some_o few_o hour_n after_o it_o will_v infallible_o and_o perfect_o cure_v the_o same_o and_o i_o can_v assure_v the_o reader_n that_o for_o these_o three_o and_o fifty_o year_n space_n for_o so_o long_o it_o be_v since_o i_o first_o light_v upon_o this_o way_n of_o cure_v of_o wound_n receive_v upon_o the_o leg_n which_o i_o have_v never_o before_o either_o read_v or_o hear_v of_o i_o have_v never_o know_v any_o of_o my_o patient_n to_o have_v suffer_v hereby_o any_o great_a pain_n much_o less_o death_n but_o all_o thing_n have_v ever_o succeed_v according_a to_o my_o wish_n as_o i_o have_v always_o by_o most_o curious_a observation_n find_v thus_o in_o autumn_n in_o the_o year_n 1674_o in_o a_o wound_n almost_o all_o along_o the_o whole_a leg_n and_o that_o where_o the_o party_n be_v very_o old_a too_o after_o he_o have_v by_o my_o presumption_n bathe_v his_o leg_n a_o good_a while_n together_o in_o cold_a water_n he_o have_v not_o the_o least_o feeling_n of_o any_o pain_n in_o his_o leg_n neither_o be_v there_o any_o purulent_a matter_n breed_v in_o the_o wound_n and_o that_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o so_o effectual_a repulsion_n of_o the_o blood_n and_o the_o other_o humour_n and_o spirit_n as_o we_o have_v show_v before_o by_o the_o say_v cold_a water_n which_o lest_o by_o the_o patient_n too_o rash_a venture_n upon_o motion_n they_o shall_v by_o chance_n be_v call_v down_o towards_o the_o part_n again_o it_o will_v be_v necessary_a that_o he_o keep_v himself_o quiet_a for_o a_o while_n to_o the_o end_n therefore_o that_o in_o these_o and_o the_o like_a accident_n there_o may_v be_v a_o orderly_a and_o a_o secure_a way_n of_o proceed_v we_o must_v be_v sure_a to_o continue_v this_o immersion_n at_o the_o least_o for_o half_a a_o hour_n or_o rather_o a_o hour_n space_n till_o such_o time_n as_o the_o part_n affect_v shall_v be_v reduce_v to_o its_o proper_a temperature_n or_o be_v rather_o bring_v down_o to_o a_o cold_o temper_v then_o its_o own_o natural_a be_v that_o so_o the_o aforesaid_a dangerous_a symptom_n may_v with_o the_o great_a security_n be_v hinder_v which_o be_v do_v there_o be_v nothing_o at_o all_o to_o be_v lay_v upon_o the_o wound_n save_v only_o some_o of_o that_o small_a film_n or_o thin_a skin_n that_o lie_v immediate_o under_o the_o shell_n of_o a_o egg_n enwrape_v the_o whole_a egg_n about_o which_o you_o must_v be_v very_o careful_a that_o it_o fall_v not_o off_o or_o be_v careless_o pull_v off_o or_o remove_v from_o off_o the_o wound_n till_o such_o time_n as_o that_o
