of_o this_o kingdom_n i_o have_v find_v to_o be_v more_o malignant_a than_o any_o that_o have_v reign_v in_o my_o remembrance_n so_o that_o many_o of_o all_o age_n and_o sex_n but_o especial_o child_n

nothing_o yea_o they_o be_v dangerous_a if_o inward_o take_v especial_o if_o the_o patient_n have_v be_v long_o sick_a but_o if_o they_o be_v outward_o apply_v as_o i_o shall_v show_v eftsoons_o they_o will_v prove_v good_a remedy_n at_o this_o time_n but_o how_o many_o a_o tender_a hearted_a mother_n have_v i_o see_v that_o out_o of_o a_o unhappy_a care_n of_o her_o sick_a child_n have_v by_o rash_a counsel_n and_o the_o unseasonable_a give_n to_o it_o hot_a cordial_a medicine_n increase_v the_o fever_n multiply_v the_o matter_n of_o the_o small_a pox_n and_o inflame_v the_o spirit_n so_o that_o the_o pestilence_n have_v many_o time_n follow_v but_o howsoever_o the_o child_n have_v be_v uncurable_a which_o otherwise_o if_o nothing_o at_o all_o or_o else_o some_o small_a thing_n of_o little_a strength_n have_v be_v administer_v may_v have_v recover_v whereupon_o i_o observe_v the_o sundry_a way_n and_o mean_v practise_v by_o physician_n woman_n and_o myself_o and_o see_v the_o diverse_a event_n of_o they_o i_o labour_v to_o find_v out_o a_o certain_a and_o secure_a way_n for_o the_o cure_n of_o this_o disease_n which_o have_v find_v by_o experience_n i_o have_v together_o with_o this_o treatise_n of_o the_o plague_n send_v it_o to_o the_o press_n hope_v that_o no_o man_n will_v either_o hate_v i_o or_o envy_v i_o for_o do_v good_a and_o that_o those_o that_o find_v benefit_n by_o it_o will_v thank_v i_o for_o it_o the_o primitive_a or_o external_a cause_n of_o the_o small_a pox_n be_v all_o one_o with_o those_o which_o be_v of_o the_o plague_n as_o a_o

therefore_o those_o mean_n that_o i_o have_v prescribe_v in_o the_o first_o chapter_n to_o preserve_v the_o body_n from_o the_o infection_n of_o the_o plague_n they_o will_v also_o be_v a_o mean_n to_o preserve_v from_o the_o small_a pox_n those_o that_o be_v take_v sick_a this_o year_n with_o the_o small_a pox_n be_v affect_v after_o the_o same_o manner_n as_o those_o that_o be_v infect_v with_o the_o pestilence_n and_o in_o the_o beginning_n it_o can_v scarce_o be_v discern_v by_o a_o expert_a physician_n from_o it_o but_o only_o by_o these_o sign_n those_o that_o be_v infect_v by_o the_o small_a pox_n be_v not_o so_o violent_o affect_v with_o heat_n and_o cold_a nor_o pain_n in_o the_o stomach_n and_o head_n as_o those_o that_o be_v sick_a with_o the_o pestilence_n moreover_o those_o that_o will_v have_v the_o small_a pox_n their_o skin_n be_v puff_v up_o and_o blow_v like_o a_o bladder_n so_o that_o their_o face_n and_o eye_n do_v shine_v they_o have_v a_o great_a itch_n

shall_v perceive_v by_o these_o sign_n that_o the_o sick_a will_v have_v the_o small_a pox_n keep_v he_o warm_v but_o not_o too_o hot_a neither_o let_v he_o take_v cold_a but_o give_v he_o breathe_v

well_o endure_v it_o for_o the_o long_o the_o better_o see_v the_o medicine_n of_o themselves_o be_v no_o violent_a sweat_n and_o during_o the_o sweat_n you_o may_v give_v he_o now_o and_o then_o to_o

then_o short_o after_o the_o pox_n will_v begin_v to_o show_v themselves_o but_o they_o will_v not_o be_v many_o although_o every_o one_o of_o they_o will_v be_v far_o great_a than_o the_o small_a

white_a head_n do_v burn_v and_o rage_n extreme_o you_o may_v prick_v their_o head_n with_o a_o needle_n and_o let_v out_o the_o corruption_n there_o be_v nothing_o else_o to_o be_v do_v with_o those_o upon_o who_o they_o be_v come_v out_o and_o the_o fever_n abate_v but_o that_o they_o keep_v themselves_o warm_a sit_v still_o and_o be_v quiet_a but_o if_o that_o the_o sick_a have_v not_o go_v to_o stool_n in_o a_o long_a time_n before_o you_o give_v he_o this_o cordial_n to_o sweat_v you_o shall_v cause_v he_o to_o go_v to_o stool_n by_o a_o clyster_n or_o else_o which_o be_v better_o by_o a_o suppositor_n make_v with_o honey_n and_o salt_n or_o a_o violet_n comfit_v and_o if_o the_o sick_a be_v young_a strong_a and_o full_a of_o blood_n you_o shall_v without_o danger_n do_v very_o well_o if_o you_o draw_v from_o he_o eight_o or_o ten_o ounce_n of_o blood_n before_o you_o lay_v he_o to_o sweat_v for_o then_o the_o cordial_n will_v have_v more_o power_n room_n and_o liberty_n to_o play_v upon_o the_o disease_n and_o will_v the_o soon_o and_o better_o drive_v out_o the_o pox_n if_o the_o quintessentia_fw-la vitae_fw-la be_v give_v in_o the_o water_n of_o rose_n borage_n or_o bugloss_n it_o will_v drive_v out_o the_o small_a pox_n without_o sweat_v and_o cure_v the_o sick_a immediate_o but_o if_o the_o small_a pox_n be_v come_v forth_o and_o that_o the_o fever_n continue_v in_o his_o full_a vigour_n still_o so_o that_o the_o sick_a do_v not_o amend_v but_o grow_v worse_a and_o worse_o than_o you_o shall_v not_o give_v they_o any_o hot_a medicine_n inward_o nor_o any_o thing_n that_o do_v provoke_v sweat_n for_o now_o hot_a cordial_a medicine_n will_v increase_v the_o fever_n and_o in_o the_o beginning_n they_o will_v have_v quench_v the_o fever_n and_o turn_v all_o the_o humour_n of_o the_o body_n into_o the_o matter_n of_o the_o small_a pox_n so_o that_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o a_o miserable_a death_n likely_a to_o follow_v oftentimes_o accompany_v with_o the_o pestilence_n this_o evil_a be_v much_o practise_v by_o those_o woman_n that_o pretend_v they_o will_v drive_v the_o small_a pox_n further_o out_o when_o they_o be_v come_v out_o already_o wherefore_o they_o do_v but_o beget_v the_o fever_n again_o and_o where_o there_o be_v but_o ten_o they_o will_v make_v a_o thousand_o therefore_o be_v careful_a in_o this_o case_n what_o you_o do_v and_o give_v to_o the_o sick_a every_o hour_n nothing_o else_o but_o two_o or_o three_o spoonful_n of_o rose_n water_n sweeten_v with_o a_o little_a sugar_n this_o will_v cool_v the_o body_n quench_v the_o fever_n cause_n rest_n and_o then_o a_o stool_n and_o thereby_o the_o sick_a shall_v recover_v present_o by_o these_o mean_n i_o have_v cure_v many_o very_o sudden_o that_o have_v be_v dangerous_o sick_a in_o all_o man_n sight_n even_o to_o death_n as_o many_o in_o the_o city_n can_v bear_v i_o witness_v as_o i_o have_v warn_v you_o not_o to_o give_v many_o hot_a thing_n when_o the_o small_a pox_n be_v come_v forth_o so_o i_o will_v have_v you_o beware_v of_o give_v those_o that_o be_v very_o cold_a as_o the_o water_n of_o plantain_n lettuce_n purslane_n poppy_n and_o
