small_a pox_n be_v not_o to_o be_v adhibit_v neither_o in_o the_o beginning_n o●_n the_o ebulition_n nor_o eruption_n of_o the_o pustules_fw-la neither_o be_v any_o blout_n to_o be_v draw_v safe_o or_o without_o danger_n insomuch_o that_o neither_o riverius_n nor_o any_o other_o author_n can_v afford_v any_o certain_a assurance_n of_o the_o practice_n of_o phlebotomy_n i●_n this_o disease_n but_o rather_o these_o contradictory_n opposition_n between_o the_o most_o learned_a ancient_n and_o modern_a professor_n of_o high_a judgement_n and_o observation_n do_v prove_v this_o scope_n of_o cure_n by_o blood-letting_n to_o be_v a_o unsafe_a and_o doubtful_a remedy_n in_o the_o small_a pox_n and_o therefore_o i_o think_v it_o my_o duty_n to_o publish_v so_o much_o to_o my_o own_o nation_n and_o in_o their_o own_o tongue_n that_o they_o may_v be_v instruct_v and_o enable_v to_o avoid_v the_o danger_n of_o unsafe_a or_o rash_a proceed_n in_o the_o cure_n of_o this_o disease_n and_o if_o these_o expression_n be_v insignificant_a to_o any_o person_n of_o another_o sense_n i_o shall_v leave_v they_o as_o courageous_a and_o valiant_a adventurer_n and_o wish_v their_o return_n may_v be_v more_o successful_a then_o of_o late_o they_o havebin_n i_o have_v now_o most_o plain_o express_v my_o own_o sense_n of_o blood-letting_n in_o this_o disease_n of_o the_o small_a pox_n particular_o yet_o it_o will_v admit_v of_o a_o more_o general_a extension_n to_o all_o circumferential_a motion_n in_o nature_n for_o without_o dispute_v the_o intention_n in_o all_o affliction_n be_v to_o expel_v all_o peccant_a and_o peternaturall_a cause_n from_o the_o centre_n to_o the_o universal_a emunctory_a or_o to_o some_o particular_a place_n of_o reception_n from_o a_o more_o noble_a to_o a_o less_o noble_a part_n according_a to_o its_o power_n in_o resist_v the_o cause_n for_o if_o it_o can_v effect_v a_o universal_a evacuation_n circumfercntial_a nor_o a_o extreme_a impulsion_n from_o the_o most_o noble_a to_o the_o most_o ignoble_a part_n such_o as_o be_v from_o head_n to_o foot_n or_o from_o the_o breast_n to_o the_o back_n than_o it_o move_v oblique_o to_o some_o emunctory_a which_o may_v obtain_v the_o term_n of_o a_o perfect_a diversion_n to_o the_o next_o vicine_fw-la part_n or_o else_o to_o some_o neutral_a which_o have_v a_o vicinity_n with_o both_o as_o from_o the_o head_n to_o the_o glandule_n of_o the_o throat_n glandule_n of_o the_o groin_n which_o be_v more_o remote_a and_o so_o prove_v neither_o a_o proper_a diversion_n nor_o proper_a revulsion_n and_o in_o these_o motion_n phlebotomy_n may_v be_v indicate_v either_o ●or_a diversion_n or_o revulsion_n or_o universal_a evacuation_n which_o in_o art_n ought_v to_o precede_v a_o particular_a evacuation_n by_o which_o remedy_n some_o internal_a oppilation_n or_o obstruction_n in_o via_fw-la may_v be_v remove_v and_o nature_n enable_v more_o universal_o to_o free_v itself_o of_o a_o congestion_n but_o since_o i_o have_v not_o consent_v to_o phlebotomy_n in_o the_o small_a pox_n i_o be_o oblige_v to_o declare_v a_o undeniable_a regimen_n in_o this_o disease_n with_o considerable_a remedy_n both_o external_a and_o internal_a to_o be_v apply_v and_o although_o phlebotomy_n be_v in_o the_o catalogue_n of_o external_a remedy_n yet_o so_o of_o no_o use_n in_o this_o case_n by_o reason_n that_o it_o be_v as_o difficult_a in_o this_o disease_n to_o find_v a_o proper_a indication_n to_o sense_n as_o a_o simple_a intempery_n in_o a_o veletudinary_a person_n that_o be_v such_o a_o disease_n as_o be_v without_o any_o other_o complication_n such_o a_o disease_n imaginary_a there_o may_v be_v but_o not_o demonstrative_a to_o sense_n but_o if_o any_o proper_a indication_n with_o a_o necessity_n of_o coaction_n for_o draw_v of_o blood_n do_v present_v itself_o to_o the_o agent_n then_o as_o i_o say_v in_o my_o precedent_a discourse_n the_o application_n of_o cupping-glass_n upon_o the_o shoulder_n arm_n and_o thigh_n with_o scarification_n be_v the_o safe_a remedy_n with_o this_o caution_n that_o the_o scarification_n be_v superficial_a and_o not_o deep_a lest_o they_o enter_v upon_o a_o vein_n or_o artery_n and_o the_o evacuation_n be_v stop_v with_o much_o difficulty_n and_o danger_n to_o the_o patient_a and_o this_o applicatition_n thus_o perform_v nature_n be_v assist_v in_o its_o circumferentiall_a motion_n if_o there_o be_v also_o a_o great_a care_n and_o circumspection_n in_o the_o contemperation_n of_o the_o ambient_fw-la air_n of_o the_o place_n that_o it_o be_v not_o so_o hot_a as_o to_o suffocate_v the_o spirit_n nor_o so_o cold_a as_o to_o repel_v the_o humour_n in_o motion_n to_o the_o centre_n or_o so_o congregate_v and_o condense_a the_o intrinsical_a cause_n that_o in_o conatu_fw-la naturae_fw-la or_o in_o the_o endeavour_n of_o nature_n to_o dissolve_v and_o open_v the_o porosity_n be_v inflame_v and_o the_o disease_n augment_v or_o total_o stop_v the_o eruption_n of_o the_o pustules_fw-la and_o therefore_o to_o be_v advise_o order_v there_o be_v other_o external_a remedy_n which_o be_v to_o be_v use_v in_o the_o state_n of_o this_o disease_n unto_o the_o declension_n for_o the_o prevention_n of_o escar_n and_o these_o remedy_n be_v common_o the_o compliment_n of_o every_o experience_a nurse_n but_o i_o shall_v first_o acquaint_v the_o reader_n
