of_o grief_n be_v incident_a to_o man_n of_o middle_a age_n and_o such_o as_o be_v of_o a_o sanguine_a complexion_n and_o do_v use_v a_o full_a diet_n with_o little_a exercise_n and_o much_o rest_n three_o the_o gout_n be_v a_o grief_n in_o some_o by_o way_n of_o distemperature_n and_o this_o do_v fall_v out_o as_o occasion_n be_v offer_v as_o some_o by_o stand_v long_o in_o cold_a water_n may_v have_v the_o gout_n by_o reason_n of_o a_o cold_a distemperature_n which_o be_v wrought_v into_o the_o part_n by_o the_o cold_a water_n and_o some_o by_o much_o travel_n on_o foot_n in_o hot_a weather_n may_v have_v the_o gout_n by_o reason_n of_o a_o hot_a distemperature_n procure_v unto_o the_o foot_n by_o overmuch_a travel_n and_o heat_n last_o in_o some_o the_o gout_n be_v a_o grief_n by_o way_n of_o corrosion_n not_o that_o it_o eat_v the_o flesh_n but_o in_o that_o it_o gnaw_v and_o fret_v that_o the_o patient_a sometime_o think_v that_o dog_n do_v gnaw_v his_o bone_n this_o kind_n befall_v choleric_a person_n and_o such_o as_o use_v a_o ill_a diet_n breed_v in_o they_o store_n of_o ill_a humour_n so_o be_v it_o evident_a that_o the_o gout_n be_v a_o grief_n and_o what_o kind_n of_o grief_n which_o be_v profitable_a to_o he_o that_o will_v give_v help_n thereunto_o for_o by_o the_o manner_n of_o the_o grief_n we_o come_v unto_o the_o cause_n thereof_o and_o so_o according_o apply_v the_o remedy_n it_o follow_v that_o it_o be_v a_o grief_n of_o the_o foot_n there_o be_v four_o reason_n why_o the_o foot_n be_v more_o afflict_v gout_n with_o these_o grief_n than_o other_o part_n be_v first_o in_o respect_n of_o their_o place_n for_o that_o they_o be_v the_o low_a part_n in_o the_o body_n the_o upper_a put_v down_o their_o superfluity_n to_o they_o where_o they_o remain_v procure_v in_o some_o one_o manner_n or_o other_o as_o be_v before_o specify_v a_o pain_n the_o second_o cause_n be_v for_o that_o the_o foot_n be_v not_o of_o so_o compact_a or_o solid_a substance_n as_o some_o other_o part_n be_v of_o but_o have_v a_o thin_a composition_n with_o many_o void_a and_o empty_a receptacle_n and_o therefore_o in_o more_o abundant_a sort_n do_v receive_v and_o retain_v the_o superfluity_n of_o other_o part_n the_o three_o cause_n be_v for_o that_o the_o foot_n be_v more_o in_o motion_n than_o other_o part_n and_o the_o nature_n of_o motion_n be_v to_o make_v attraction_n of_o humour_n unto_o the_o move_a part_n and_o consequent_o a_o pain_n the_o four_o be_v a_o debility_n natural_o incident_a more_o to_o the_o foot_n than_o unto_o other_o part_n for_o that_o they_o be_v situate_a far_a from_o the_o fountain_n of_o heat_n which_o be_v the_o heart_n they_o also_o consist_v of_o such_o substance_n as_o be_v of_o a_o cold_a complexion_n so_o that_o both_o for_o lack_v of_o the_o comfort_n they_o shall_v have_v from_o the_o heat_n of_o the_o heart_n as_o also_o in_o respect_n of_o their_o own_o composition_n the_o foot_n be_v weak_a than_o the_o other_o part_n and_o the_o weak_a go_v still_o to_o the_o wall_n for_o they_o receive_v the_o annoyance_n of_o the_o strong_a because_o they_o be_v not_o of_o strength_n to_o resist_v and_o therefore_o must_v of_o necessity_n yield_v to_o their_o pain_n now_o why_o in_o the_o gout_n the_o foot_n shall_v feel_v such_o grievous_a pain_n pain_n this_o be_v the_o reason_n for_o that_o they_o consist_v of_o many_o joint_n and_o have_v for_o their_o motion_n and_o sense_n many_o nerve_n which_o be_v the_o instrument_n of_o motion_n and_o sense_n whatsoever_o part_n be_v most_o nervous_a be_v also_o most_o sensible_a and_o therefore_o the_o foot_n upon_o any_o little_a offence_n be_v pain_v or_o greeve_v the_o more_o another_o reason_n be_v this_o that_o about_o every_o joint_n be_v wrap_v a_o skin_n and_o when_o as_o a_o humour_n have_v insinuate_v itself_o between_o that_o and_o the_o joint_n in_o distend_v of_o that_o until_o it_o be_v resolve_v it_o work_v a_o intolerable_a grief_n and_o it_o be_v so_o hard_a to_o resolve_v it_o as_o that_o sometime_o it_o do_v indurate_a or_o grow_v into_o a_o hard_a substance_n which_o be_v call_v nodosa_fw-la podagra_fw-la the_o knot_a gout_n and_o these_o two_o cause_n of_o the_o dolorous_a state_n of_o the_o foot_n be_v accidental_o grow_v from_o the_o part_n itself_o affect_v in_o respect_n of_o other_o cause_n i_o have_v give_v other_o reason_n before_o in_o the_o fourfold_a distinction_n of_o grief_n now_o it_o do_v follow_v that_o this_o grief_n in_o the_o foot_n be_v occasion_v by_o some_o distemperature_n there_o be_v eight_o sort_n of_o distemperature_n four_o simple_a and_o four_o compound_n distemperature_n the_o four_o simple_a be_v too_o hot_a too_o cold_a too_o moist_a too_o dry_a the_o four_o compound_n too_o hot_a and_o dry_a withal_o too_o moist_a and_o cold_a withal_o too_o hot_a and_o moist_a too_o dry_a and_o cold_a with_o all_o and_o these_o inequality_n come_v by_o thereof_o reason_n of_o some_o unequal_a mixture_n of_o the_o four_o element_n in_o we_o and_o the_o dominion_n of_o some_o one_o or_o other_o above_o the_o rest_n the_o four_o element_n whereof_o we_o be_v compound_v be_v the_o fire_n the_o air_n the_o water_n the_o earth_n element_n the_o element_n of_o fire_n be_v hot_a and_o dry_a the_o air_n hot_a and_o moist_a the_o water_n cold_a and_o moist_a the_o earth_n cold_a and_o dry_a of_o these_o four_o mix_v together_o come_v the_o four_o temperament_n or_o complexion_n the_o choleric_a hot_a proceed_v and_o dry_a where_o the_o fire_n have_v the_o dominion_n the_o sanguine_a hot_a and_o moist_a wherein_o wherein_o the_o air_n have_v the_o dominion_n the_o phlegmatic_a cold_a and_o moist_a wherein_o the_o water_n have_v the_o dominion_n the_o melancholic_a wherein_o the_o element_n of_o earth_n be_v predominant_a and_o of_o these_o four_o temperament_n come_v the_o four_o humour_n to_o proceed_v wit_n choler_n hot_a and_o dry_a blood_n hot_a and_o moist_a phlegm_n cold_a and_o moist_a melancholy_a cold_a and_o dry_a of_o these_o four_o humour_n be_v frame_v and_o maintain_v all_o the_o part_n of_o man_n body_n so_o that_o if_o they_o offend_v either_o in_o the_o first_o composition_n in_o any_o inequality_n or_o after_o by_o disorder_n of_o part_n diet_n be_v make_v unequal_a then_o do_v they_o breed_v either_o in_o the_o whole_a or_o in_o some_o part_n the_o like_a inequality_n and_o hence_o it_o come_v that_o we_o have_v hot_a and_o dry_a disease_n as_o fever_n and_o we_o have_v cold_a and_o moist_a disease_n as_o the_o palsy_n apoplexy_n the_o fall_a sickness_n and_o divers_a more_o also_o we_o have_v disease_n of_o the_o blood_n as_o inflammation_n and_o likewise_o of_o melancholy_a which_o all_o disease_n as_o some_o in_o some_o one_o part_n and_o some_o in_o some_o other_o may_v come_v of_o the_o distemperature_n of_o the_o same_o part_n so_o the_o gout_n may_v also_o come_v of_o a_o distemperature_n in_o the_o foot_n either_o breed_v therein_o original_o or_o by_o some_o disorder_n procure_v unto_o they_o as_o hereafter_o in_o the_o cause_n which_o procure_v the_o gout_n shall_v appear_v it_o follow_v that_o it_o be_v occasion_v either_o by_o some_o distemperature_n or_o irregular_a humour_n the_o humour_n of_o the_o body_n be_v either_o good_a and_o humour_n natural_a and_o then_o nature_n rejoice_v in_o they_o for_o that_o they_o nourish_v the_o body_n and_o maintain_v it_o in_o good_a health_n and_o long_a life_n or_o else_o they_o be_v naught_o and_o contrary_a to_o nature_n for_o that_o they_o procure_v disease_n and_o destruction_n unto_o it_o as_o when_o they_o be_v possess_v with_o putrefaction_n or_o else_o they_o be_v neither_o good_a altogether_o neither_o bad_a but_o semimali_fw-la half_o naught_o and_o this_o state_n of_o the_o humour_n i_o call_v irregular_a because_o they_o be_v not_o altogether_o overrule_v by_o nature_n and_o that_o in_o three_o respect_n physic_n for_o either_o they_o offend_v in_o quantity_n in_o be_v in_o great_a abundance_n than_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o body_n require_v or_o they_o offend_v in_o quality_n be_v too_o hot_a or_o too_o cold_a or_o too_o sharp_a and_o rodent_a or_o else_o they_o offend_v in_o substance_n when_o as_o they_o be_v decline_v some_o what_o from_o a_o good_a and_o natural_a state_n unto_o a_o unnatural_a there_o be_v three_o sort_n of_o body_n consider_v in_o physic_n the_o body_n healthful_a the_o body_n disease_v and_o three_o the_o body_n neither_o perfect_o whole_a neither_o disease_a but_o in_o a_o neutrality_n between_o both_o which_o be_v after_o two_o sort_n either_o when_o a_o sick_a body_n recover_v and_o grow_v towards_o health_n than_o it_o be_v neither_o whole_a nor_o sick_a or_o when_o a_o whole_a body_n be_v decline_v from_o a_o healthful_a state_n and_o grow_v to_o be_v sick_a
amiss_o vinegar_n and_o all_o sour_a sauce_n and_o drink_n be_v not_o good_a for_o that_o they_o turn_v to_o melancholy_n it_o be_v most_o hurtful_a herein_o to_o be_v sad_a and_o careful_a concern_v the_o cure_n neither_o this_o humour_n neither_o the_o former_a medicine_n of_o themselves_o require_v any_o emission_n of_o blood_n for_o that_o the_o state_n of_o those_o body_n which_o they_o possess_v be_v already_o too_o cold_a but_o if_o it_o chance_v to_o be_v mix_v with_o blood_n then_o at_o the_o very_a beginning_n it_o shall_v be_v convenient_a to_o let_v blood_n premise_v some_o solutive_a clyster_n or_o lenitive_a medicine_n next_o the_o humour_n and_o body_n must_v be_v prepare_v with_o such_o syrup_n or_o decoction_n as_o do_v respect_n melancholy_a as_o with_o borage_n and_o buglosse_n and_o fumitory_n and_o top_n of_o hop_n and_o cetrach_n and_o such_o like_a then_o the_o humour_n must_v be_v purge_v with_o such_o purgative_a medicine_n as_o respect_v the_o humour_n as_o with_o sena_n polipody_n the_o black_a mirabolan_n epithymum_n with_o catholicon_n and_o if_o need_v be_v diasen●a_n and_o confectio_fw-la hamech_n when_o as_o the_o humour_n be_v somewhat_o stay_v by_o purge_v then_o must_v we_o come_v to_o local_a medicine_n which_o first_o must_v be_v to_o repel_v next_o to_o resolve_v such_o as_o repel_v must_v be_v moderate_o hot_a because_o the_o humour_n be_v cold_a of_o itself_o as_o the_o medicine_n leaf_n of_o the_o terebinth_n tree_n and_o of_o the_o cipres_fw-fr tree_n and_o the_o root_n of_o cyprus_n boil_a in_o vinegar_n wherewith_o the_o part_n be_v to_o be_v bathe_v to_o resolve_v this_o or_o such_o like_a may_v do_v well_o take_v of_o the_o tender_a bay_fw-mi leaf_n and_o of_o camomile_n dill_n pennyroyal_n of_o basill_n and_o the_o root_n of_o the_o flower-de-luce_n boil_v all_o together_o and_o with_o the_o water_n bathe_v the_o part_n and_o stamp_v the_o herb_n into_o a_o pulp_n whereunto_o add_v the_o flower_n of_o barley_n and_o fenygreek_n and_o linseed_n with_o some_o capon_n grease_n or_o oesipus_fw-la or_o goose_n grease_n and_o may-butter_n and_o apply_v it_o warm_v to_o the_o place_n and_o so_o change_v it_o often_o and_o if_o one_o thing_n can_v do_v good_a we_o must_v devise_v some_o other_o for_o it_o fall_v out_o oftentimes_o that_o some_o one_o thing_n may_v do_v good_a at_o some_o time_n and_o sometime_o it_o can_v do_v no_o good_a observation_n and_o be_v apply_v a_o little_a while_n it_o do_v good_a and_o be_v long_o to_o the_o part_n it_o do_v harm_n now_o if_o the_o gout_n come_v not_o of_o any_o several_a humour_n humour_n but_o by_o the_o mixture_n of_o mo_z then_o be_v there_o a_o great_a discretion_n to_o be_v use_v of_o the_o physician_n either_o to_o judge_v of_o the_o predominant_a humour_n or_o of_o the_o manner_n of_o their_o mixture_n and_o according_o to_o apply_v his_o remedy_n as_o if_o choler_n or_o blood_n or_o phlegm_n or_o melancholy_a be_v predominant_a than_o the_o medicine_n or_o cure_n must_v chief_o be_v appropriate_v to_o that_o somewhat_o respect_v the_o rest_n or_o if_o there_o be_v a_o equal_a mixture_n of_o all_o which_o do_v seldom_o befall_v then_o there_o must_v be_v such_o a_o mixture_n of_o thing_n for_o the_o cure_n as_o shall_v respect_v all_o not_o do_v harm_n to_o any_o but_o good_a unto_o all_o and_o this_o make_v the_o gout_n so_o hard_o to_o be_v cure_v for_o if_o in_o a_o deflux_n one_o only_a humour_n will_v descend_v we_o shall_v easy_o know_v it_o and_o soon_o
