little_a more_o of_o it_o in_o the_o follow_a chapter_n hypocrates_n be_v full_a as_o nice_a on_o the_o subject_n of_o drink_n he_o take_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o pain_n to_o distinguish_v the_o good_a water_n from_o those_o that_o be_v bad_a the_o best_a in_o his_o opinion_n aught_o to_o be_v clear_a light_n without_o smell_n or_o taste_v and_o take_v out_o of_o fountain_n that_o turn_v

of_o fenny_a ground_n be_v the_o worst_a of_o all_o as_o also_o those_o that_o come_v from_o melt_a snow_n but_o though_o hypocrates_n make_v all_o these_o distinction_n yet_o he_o advise_v those_o
