shall_v be_v require_v to_o hold_v those_o rocket_n which_o you_o mean_v to_o place_n in_o each_o one_o bu●1_n these_o box_n must_v have_v a_o false_a bottom_n full_a of_o hole_n for_o to_o pass_v

scar_n after_o the_o heal_n of_o the_o place_n wound_v and_o therefore_o i_o have_v set_v down_o the_o very_a word_n which_o thybourel_n have_v write_v in_o the_o last_o chapter_n of_o his_o four_o

neither_o of_o these_o unguent_n have_v any_o scar_n but_o be_v precious_a remedy_n for_o the_o afflict_a we_o have_v see_v imposture_n cover_v sore_n with_o this_o water_n alone_o but_o observe_v

do_v heal_v sore_n better_o than_o our_o ordinary_a unguent_n thus_o may_v you_o see_v how_o this_o brave_a chirurgeon_n that_o set_v forth_o to_o the_o face_n of_o the_o world_n the_o perfection_n of_o this_o unguent_n which_o can_v be_v sufficient-praised_n confirm_v by_o his_o own_o confession_n that_o the_o surgeon_n do_v not_o use_v such_o good_a remedy_n in_o their_o shop_n and_o ordinary_a operation_n wherefore_o i_o have_v set_v down_o his_o own_o word_n that_o no_o man_n may_v esteem_v i_o inventor_n of_o calumny_n against_o the_o practitioner_n of_o chirurgery_n nor_o any_o other_o as_o many_o now_o adays_o seem_v to_o write_v with_o serpent_n tongue_n sting_a virtue_n on_o every_o side_n against_o who_o viperous_a venom_n patience_n be_v the_o only_a antedote_n leave_v they_o to_o sweat_v vex_v and_o torment_v themselves_o in_o their_o insatiable_a rage_n and_o to_o end_v my_o discourse_n touch_v the_o perfection_n of_o this_o unguent_n i_o will_v assure_v all_o these_o who_o shall_v have_v need_n and_o make_v use_v thereof_o that_o they_o shall_v find_v in_o operation_n what_o i_o have_v here_o set_v down_o in_o description_n a_o treatise_n of_o

down_o the_o manner_n how_o any_o man_n who_o have_v never_o so_o little_o study_v geometry_n may_v take_v any_o distance_n or_o height_n depth_n or_o breadth_n with_o two_o little_a stick_n yea_o

knowledge_n of_o those_o who_o for_o want_n of_o practice_n have_v not_o the_o perfect_a use_n of_o those_o instrument_n then_o first_o of_o all_o i_o will_v set_v down_o the_o manner_n how_o to_o accommodate_v and_o dispose_v the_o stick_n twigg_n or_o straw_n for_o the_o measure_n of_o any_o distance_n the_o method_n how_o to_o make_v the_o crosse._n have_v two_o stick_n the_o one_o long_a and_o the_o other_o somewhat_o short_a as_o be_v represent_v in_o the_o figure_n follow_v by_o cf_n and_o de_fw-fr then_o mark_v upon_o the_o stick_n cf_n point_v the_o one_o distant_a from_o the_o
