for_o you_o must_v understand_v all_o these_o age_n with_o perfect_a health_n the_o diversity_n of_o urine_v according_a to_o the_o time_n of_o the_o year_n even_o as_o the_o diversity_n of_o age_n

in_o all_o thing_n in_o the_o middle_n of_o winter_n and_o thereabouts_o the_o urine_n keep_v due_a quantity_n but_o the_o colour_n incline_v towards_o white_a and_o the_o ground_n be_v over_o great_a
