therefore_o in_o manage_v of_o the_o cure_n of_o all_o hurt_v or_o wound_n the_o artist_n chief_a work_n shall_v be_v to_o allay_v or_o draw_v forth_o those_o original_n poisonous_a hot_a sulphurous_a spirit_n that_o be_v so_o violent_a in_o their_o operation_n that_o they_o cause_v that_o part_n to_o burn_v swell_v and_o rage_n with_o great_a extremity_n of_o pain_n for_o when_o in_o any_o part_n of_o the_o body_n the_o pure_a essential_a spirit_n and_o balsamic_a virtue_n be_v wound_v or_o hurt_v by_o any_o kind_n of_o violence_n present_o the_o original_a or_o fierce_a brimstony_v spirit_n be_v awaken_v and_o then_o they_o appear_v in_o their_o own_o form_n which_o so_o long_o as_o the_o pure_a spirit_n and_o balsamic_a oil_n remain_v entire_a be_v hide_v or_o rather_o moderate_v and_o burn_v gentle_o and_o friendly_a and_o give_v life_n and_o motion_n to_o nature_n but_o as_o soon_o as_o the_o pure_a oil_n and_o spirit_n be_v wound_v the_o aforesaid_a latent_fw-la fierce_a spirit_n break_v forth_o and_o show_v themselves_o and_o become_v of_o a_o furious_a nature_n and_o operation_n the_o very_a same_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v in_o the_o vegetable_a kingdom_n if_o you_o destroy_v the_o pure_a spirit_n and_o sweet_a oil_n or_o balsamic_a virtue_n in_o any_o thing_n than_o the_o original_a form_n of_o saturn_n and_o mars_n appear_v as_o be_v manifest_a in_o charcoal_n and_o brandy_n for_o all_o thing_n both_o vegetable_n animal_n and_o mineral_n have_v but_o one_o only_a ground_n and_o foundation_n and_o he_o that_o understand_v one_o by_o the_o same_o spirit_n may_v see_v into_o the_o ground_n and_o reason_n of_o they_o all_o nay_o the_o chief_a cause_n and_o foundation_n of_o all_o disease_n and_o distemper_n in_o the_o body_n be_v from_o the_o same_o ground_n for_o when_o by_o accident_n or_o intemperance_n the_o pure_a natural_a spirit_n and_o sweet_a oil_n in_o the_o body_n suffer_v violence_n be_v it_o in_o what_o part_n of_o the_o body_n it_o will_v then_o present_o the_o poison_n in_o that_o part_n be_v stir_v up_o and_o then_o there_o be_v pain_n feel_v there_o and_o thence_o follow_v those_o terrible_a fever_n and_o disease_n that_o destroy_v life_n in_o a_o moment_n the_o mouth_n and_o attractive_a faculty_n of_o the_o stomach_n do_v not_o only_o draw_v forth_o of_o the_o wound_n bruise_v or_o sore_o green_a or_o old_a the_o poysonful_a spirit_n which_o cause_n pain_n and_o swelling_n but_o by_o a_o secret_a balsamic_a virtue_n heal_v such_o hurts_z but_o where_o the_o hurt_a be_v full_a of_o matter_n and_o subject_a to_o putrify_v than_o it_o will_v be_v convenient_a to_o put_v the_o juice_n of_o limb_n lemon_n or_o some_o such_o keen_a sharp_a juice_n into_o your_o mouth_n and_o so_o suck_v your_o wound_n and_o spurt_v it_o out_o and_o then_o take_v more_o into_o your_o mouth_n several_a time_n for_o several_a day_n together_o and_o not_o be_v weary_a in_o a_o day_n as_o some_o be_v for_o nature_n can_v destroy_v those_o kindle_a poison_n in_o a_o instant_n but_o it_o will_v certain_o do_v it_o in_o a_o short_a time_n than_o either_o salve_n plaster_n or_o ointment_n viz._n in_o two_o three_o or_o four_o day_n most_o ordinary_a hurt_n will_v be_v cure_v if_o you_o apply_v your_o mouth_n to_o the_o suck_a of_o it_o often_o both_o in_o the_o night_n and_o the_o day_n and_o therefore_o i_o commend_v this_o way_n of_o cure_n especial_o to_o the_o countrypeople_n who_o often_o fall_v into_o such_o ill_a accident_n as_o cut_n prick_n thorn_n splinter_n bruise_n and_o the_o like_a which_o often_o cost_v they_o dear_a viz._n the_o loss_n of_o a_o hand_n or_o a_o leg_n nay_o many_o time_n in_o small_a hurt_n in_o the_o flesh_n have_v no_o understanding_n to_o help_v themselves_o but_o rely_v upon_o other_o unskilful_a people_n many_o have_v not_o only_o lose_v their_o limb_n but_o their_o life_n but_o such_o as_o shall_v use_v the_o mean_n beforementioned_a shall_v by_o god_n blessing_n prevent_v all_o such_o danger_n if_o the_o wound_n or_o hurt_v happen_v in_o a_o place_n where_o you_o can_v come_v at_o it_o with_o your_o own_o mouth_n you_o may_v get_v some_o body_n else_o to_o do_v it_o also_o it_o be_v convenient_a that_o all_o wound_n priek_n or_o cut_n when_o first_o make_v shall_v be_v make_v to_o bleed_v as_o much_o as_o may_v be_v without_o prejudice_n to_o the_o body_n for_o in_o the_o blood_n the_o fiery_a wrathful_a poisonous_a spirit_n pass_v away_o and_o then_o the_o cure_n be_v effect_v much_o the_o soonner_n but_o such_o as_o do_v not_o bleed_v nor_o can_v be_v make_v bleed_v be_v more_o dangerous_a and_o not_o soon_o or_o easy_o heal_v beside_o it_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v when_o the_o wound_n bleed_v free_o there_o be_v not_o any_o suffocation_n of_o the_o pure_a volatile_a spirit_n or_o at_o least_o
