suchlike_a thing_n avoid_v and_o be_v temperate_a and_o moderate_a in_o the_o use_n of_o all_o thing_n and_o this_o will_v be_v a_o good_a rule_n to_o observe_v against_o this_o disease_n but_o in_o the_o fit_a of_o the_o gout_n you_o may_v eat_v meat_n once_o a_o day_n free_o you_o need_v not_o refrain_v any_o good_a diet_n no_o more_o than_o at_o other_o time_n i_o shall_v not_o stand_v to_o name_v particular_n but_o in_o short_a you_o may_v eat_v fish_n or_o flesh_n or_o herb_n or_o any_o thing_n else_o that_o be_v nourish_a food_n but_o such_o as_o have_v have_v the_o gout_n long_o on_o they_o and_o be_v bring_v to_o be_v weak_a and_o have_v not_o a_o appetite_n to_o common_a diet_n let_v they_o strive_v to_o eat_v and_o drink_v something_o that_o be_v more_o strengthen_v than_o water-gruel_a for_o sometime_o eat_v too_o much_o of_o that_o and_o other_o spoon-meat_n bring_v a_o dropsy_n and_o hinder_v the_o cure_v the_o gout_n i_o shall_v advise_v you_o to_o such_o thing_n as_o be_v good_a to_o strengthen_v and_o nourish_v you_o and_o whereas_o you_o can_v eat_v but_o little_a eat_v the_o often_o and_o by_o so_o do_v you_o will_v by_o degree_n get_v a_o better_a

brew_v they_o together_o and_o drink_v it_o while_o it_o be_v warm_a in_o my_o judgement_n if_o a_o man_n have_v ●ot_n a_o stomach_n to_o eat_v a_o good_a breakast_n he_o may_v with_o such_o a_o morning's-●raught_a hold_v up_o till_o dinnertime_n but_o weak_a stomach_n want_v change_v of_o diet._n now_o if_o you_o have_v a_o good_a old_a nurse_n they_o common_o know_v how_o to_o make_v much_o of_o themselves_o and_o therefore_o be_v the_o better_a able_a to_o advise_v to_o that_o as_o may_v do_v good_a for_o a_o master_n or_o mistress_n my_o mind_n be_v that_o people_n as_o be_v not_o sick_a shall_v get_v the_o best_a kitchen-physic_n as_o can_v be_v provide_v or_o else_o for_o want_v of_o this_o lameness_n may_v soon_o turn_v to_o sickness_n i_o do_v not_o intend_v to_o fill_v up_o my_o book_n with_o direction_n for_o diet_n but_o yet_o i_o will_v give_v a_o little_a help_n to_o put_v your_o nurse_n in_o remembrance_n to_o study_v to_o make_v good_a hearten_v thing_n to_o keep_v up_o the_o body_n for_o change_v i_o shall_v give_v you_o far_a direction_n that_o you_o may_v know_v what_o may_v be_v good_a in_o a_o morning_n or_o some_o time_n between_o meal_n and_o use_v the_o best_a of_o your_o skill_n in_o provide_v good_a jelly_n be_v proper_a sometime_o make_v after_o this_o manner_n take_v two_o calves-feet_n and_o pu_o they_o into_o three_o quart_n of_o water_n boil_v they_o in_o a_o pipkin_n till_o half_a b_o waste_v away_o then_o strain_v off_o the_o foot_n and_o set_v the_o liquor_n on_o the_o fire_n again_o put_v in_o half_a a_o pound_n of_o blue_a curran_n well_o cleanse_v and_o two_o pennyworth_n of_o saffron_n and_o half_a a_o quarter_n of_o a_o ounce_n of_o cinnamon_n a_o dram_n of_o large_a mace_n boil_v these_o till_o the_o currant_n be_v plump_a and_o take_v it_o from_o the_o fire_n and_o let_v it_o stand_v till_o it_o be_v half_o cold_a then_o have_v ready_a at_o hand_n a_o pint_n of_o white-wine_n with_o four_o egg_n well_o beat_v to_o mix_v with_o the_o white-wine_n and_o six_o ounce_n of_o fine_a loaf-sugar_n brew_n these_o with_o the_o white-wine_n very_o well_o then_o take_v your_o calves-feet_n jelly_n be_v as_o i_o say_v half_a cold_a mix_v all_o together_o beat_v it_o very_o well_o with_o a_o spoon_n till_o it_o be_v almost_o cold_a this_o well_o prepare_v be_v good_a to_o eat_v at_o any_o time_n night_n or_o day_n and_o it_o may_v be_v eat_v either_o warm_a or_o cold_a according_a to_o the_o season_n of_o the_o year_n but_o in_o cold_a wether_n warm_v it_o a_o little_a this_o be_v a_o good_a thing_n in_o a_o morning_n to_o take_v about_o half_a a_o pint_n or_o more_o i_o will_v advise_v you_o for_o a_o dinner_n to_o eat_v flesh_n though_o never_o so_o little_a but_o eat_v as_o free_o as_o you_o can_v for_o that_o be_v the_o best_a way_n to_o get_v strength_n sometime_o eat_v against_o stomach_n do_v procure_v a_o better_a appetite_n against_o the_o next_o meal_n for_o those_o that_o be_v weak_a it_o be_v not_o good_a to_o boil_v or_o roast_v their_o meat_n overmuch_o i_o be_o sure_a for_o consumptive_a people_n flesh_n overroast_a be_v not_o good_a but_o if_o you_o love_v not_o your_o meat_n with_o the_o gravy_n in_o it_o than_o you_o have_v better_o stew_v it_o and_o put_v in_o sippet_n of_o white-bread_n so_o eat_v it_o for_o then_o the_o liquor_n be_v the_o best_a of_o it_o and_o meat_n thus_o dress_v be_v strengthen_v if_o you_o be_v dispose_v to_o eat_v fowl_n it_o be_v proper_a to_o have_v they_o well_o roast_v or_o boil_v also_o fish_n if_o it_o be_v not_o well_o dress_v be_v not_o good_a be_v subject_a to_o rise_v in_o the_o stomach_n and_o that_o do_v cause_v a_o loathe_n of_o food_n one_o good_a way_n to_o help_v the_o weak_a be_v to_o study_v new_a thing_n for_o often_o change_v of_o diet_n be_v a_o great_a help_n to_o procure_v a_o appetite_n and_o this_o be_v the_o proper_a business_n of_o good_a cook_n and_o nurse_n i_o will_v advise_v you_o to_o eat_v free_o in_o the_o day_n but_o at_o night_n be_v moderate_a for_o than_o you_o have_v more_o freedom_n to_o drink_v either_o wine_n or_o strong_a drink_n for_o that_o be_v not_o hurtful_a provide_v you_o drink_v not_o to_o excess_n but_o small_a beer_n be_v certain_o the_o best_a thing_n you_o can_v take_v to_o bring_v the_o gout_n on_o you_o therefore_o if_o you_o love_v the_o gout_n drink_v good_a store_n of_o small_a beer_n and_o you_o may_v be_v sure_a it_o will_v come_v with_o full_a power_n this_o i_o can_v speak_v by_o experience_n that_o i_o have_v find_v that_o small_a beer_n will_v bring_v a_o man_n into_o a_o consumption_n soon_o than_o any_o thing_n i_o know_v of_o i_o have_v be_v catch_v twice_o but_o i_o take_v heed_n to_o avoid_v a_o three_o bout_n for_o when_o i_o find_v myself_o thirsty_a i_o drink_v good_a strong_a drink_n i_o have_v see_v some_o afflict_a with_o the_o gout_n that_o with_o low_a diet_n and_o small_a beer_n have_v be_v almost_o consume_v to_o nothing_o and_o the_o disease_n be_v much_o more_o powerful_a and_o they_o have_v no_o strength_n to_o help_v themselves_o it_o be_v a_o miserable_a thing_n that_o a_o man_n or_o woman_n shall_v be_v in_o bodily_a health_n but_o yet_o in_o great_a torment_a pain_n with_o a_o leg_n or_o a_o arm_n that_o the_o very_a anguish_n of_o the_o pain_n shall_v cause_v they_o to_o cry_v aloud_o till_o they_o be_v almost_o spend_v and_o yet_o in_o this_o condition_n they_o be_v persuade_v to_o refrain_v from_o eat_v or_o drink_v of_o the_o best_a though_o then_o they_o have_v most_o need_v of_o it_o to_o support_v nature_n and_o i_o be_o certain_a that_o there_o be_v less_o danger_n of_o a_o fever_n to_o keep_v the_o body_n in_o strength_n than_o when_o the_o body_n be_v bring_v low_a and_o weak_a i_o do_v know_v that_o what_o i_o say_v in_o this_o by_o admit_v you_o to_o eat_v and_o drink_v free_o in_o the_o fit_a of_o the_o gout_n be_v contrary_a to_o the_o judgement_n of_o some_o man_n but_o let_v none_o be_v offend_v for_o my_o give_a advice_n according_a to_o my_o knowledge_n of_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o disease_n if_o you_o think_v my_o advice_n be_v not_o good_a than_o i_o make_v my_o appeal_n to_o you_o that_o find_v fault_n with_o i_o and_o i_o leave_v you_o to_o be_v judge_n by_o my_o way_n of_o practice_n and_o by_o the_o success_n i_o have_v for_o no_o man_n can_v say_v that_o ever_o any_o die_v of_o the_o gout_n that_o have_v be_v under_o my_o hand_n it_o be_v now_o near_o three_o year_n since_o i_o discover_v the_o gout-balsam_n and_o i_o have_v do_v great_a cure_n with_o that_o medicine_n in_o this_o time_n on_o the_o gout_n than_o have_v be_v do_v by_o any_o other_o as_o i_o have_v prove_v before_o many_o witness_n but_o since_o i_o have_v correct_v and_o amend_v my_o gout-balsam_n and_o discover_v other_o great_a secret_n i_o cure_v many_o other_o disease_n and_o for_o the_o most_o part_n with_o outward_a medicine_n but_o when_o i_o find_v any_o that_o be_v weak_a and_o low_a i_o be_o constrain_v to_o direct_v
stick_n or_o quill_n and_o dip_v into_o the_o pot_n of_o balsam_n and_o spot_v it_o about_o the_o part_n afflict_v as_o far_o as_o the_o pain_n be_v then_o stir_v it_o about_o with_o your_o finger_n very_o well_o till_o it_o be_v near_o dry_v in_o but_o not_o by_o the_o fire_n for_o it_o be_v hot_a of_o itself_o therefore_o i_o order_v you_o to_o spot_v it_o about_o because_o if_o you_o lay_v on_o too_o much_o in_o a_o place_n it_o will_v smart_v but_o some_o will_v bear_v much_o to_o be_v lay_v on_o and_o feel_v nothing_o therefore_o my_o way_n be_v to_o apply_v a_o little_a first_o and_o then_o stir_v that_o about_o and_o if_o it_o be_v not_o feel_v than_o i_o lay_v on_o more_o and_o if_o it_o do_v not_o itch_n or_o smart_n i_o go_v over_o a_o three_o time_n and_o all_o before_o i_o put_v it_o up_o so_o that_o my_o way_n be_v to_o apply_v it_o till_o it_o be_v feel_v and_o if_o there_o be_v more_o put_v on_o than_o will_v be_v dry_v in_o than_o i_o do_v common_o lay_v on_o a_o piece_n of_o bladder_n or_o any_o kind_n of_o skin_n to_o keep_v the_o balsam_n to_o it_o for_o clothes_n will_v take_v it_o away_o from_o the_o part_n thus_o dress_v i_o put_v it_o up_o for_o four_o and_o twenty_o hour_n or_o long_o but_o if_o the_o pain_n remain_v i_o anoint_v it_o again_o quick_o according_a as_o it_o can_v be_v well_o bear_v or_o endure_v it_o be_v needless_a to_o use_v it_o when_o there_o be_v no_o pain_n for_o the_o best_a time_n to_o do_v the_o most_o good_a be_v to_o anoint_v it_o when_o the_o pain_n be_v great_a for_o then_o the_o humour_n be_v in_o the_o part_n and_o may_v be_v bring_v forth_o but_o in_o case_n of_o a_o weakness_n remain_v after_o or_o any_o little_a kind_n of_o pain_n i_o do_v sometime_o dress_v the_o part_n once_o in_o a_o day_n or_o in_o two_o or_o three_o day_n or_o once_o a_o week_n according_a as_o need_n require_v in_o this_o manner_n use_v the_o balsam_n for_o the_o gout_n or_o such_o like_a pain_n but_o if_o need_v require_v you_o may_v use_v it_o till_o it_o blister_v if_o the_o humour_n will_v not_o go_v off_o without_o but_o then_o anoint_v the_o part_n with_o any_o heal_a thing_n as_o salet-oil_n or_o lucatellus_n balsam_n and_o this_o will_v heal_v it_o again_o in_o a_o little_a time_n but_o if_o it_o swell_v after_o it_o be_v anoint_v with_o the_o gout-balsam_n apply_v it_o again_o quick_o and_o the_o offend_a matter_n will_v come_v out_o the_o use_n of_o this_o balsam_n in_o rheumatism_n pain_n when_o the_o pain_n be_v in_o all_o part_n at_o once_o then_o begin_v according_a to_o that_o direction_n for_o the_o gout_n in_o that_o part_n as_o be_v most_o pain_v and_o when_o that_o be_v well_o dress_v and_o put_v up_o for_o some_o time_n then_o apply_v it_o to_o the_o next_o part_n and_o wait_v a_o little_a time_n after_o it_o be_v thus_o apply_v and_o if_o after_o this_o the_o pain_n yet_o remain_v in_o other_o part_n apply_v it_o still_o where_o the_o pain_n be_v great_a and_o with_o so_o do_v you_o will_v find_v that_o this_o medicine_n will_v cure_v the_o rheumatism_n but_o you_o need_v not_o apply_v so_o much_o in_o this_o case_n to_o every_o part_n as_o when_o a_o
