blood_n for_o it_o be_v certain_a enough_o as_o i_o have_v prove_v in_o my_o french_a treatise_n that_o the_o pain_n in_o the_o gout_n be_v cause_v not_o by_o any_o cold_a defluxion_n of_o humour_n

till_o such_o time_n as_o that_o nature_n drive_v it_o forth_o by_o the_o great_a vein_n into_o the_o capillary_n as_o into_o certain_a small_a channel_n by_o nature_n design_v for_o the_o convey_n

altogether_o cease_v for_o i_o can_v believe_v that_o the_o concomitant_a cause_n lie_v in_o the_o very_a joint_n where_o the_o bone_n be_v not_o wrap_v about_o with_o any_o periostium_fw-la which_o be_v of_o most_o exquisite_a sense_n for_o so_o all_o motion_n must_v needs_o be_v painful_a but_o instead_o of_o that_o be_v environ_v with_o a_o gristle_n and_o join_v together_o with_o ligament_n that_o be_v void_a of_o all_o sense_n so_o that_o the_o pain_n must_v therefore_o necessary_o be_v attribute_v to_o the_o neighbour_a part_n which_o be_v most_o sensible_a in_o the_o produce_v whereof_o see_v that_o this_o antecedent_n cause_o be_v also_o to_o be_v suppose_v to_o cooperate_v i_o be_o clear_o of_o opinion_n that_o without_o any_o let_v of_o blood_n either_o by_o way_n of_o revulsion_n or_o derivation_n we_o ought_v to_o fall_v immediate_o to_o the_o open_n of_o a_o vein_n upon_o the_o part_n itself_o unless_o the_o body_n be_v very_o plethorical_a or_o the_o patient_n young_a or_o the_o part_n lie_v convenient_a for_o revulsion_n which_o have_v former_o be_v infest_a with_o the_o same_o distemper_n do_v require_v the_o same_o for_o in_o other_o case_n you_o must_v be_v careful_a how_o you_o let_v blood_n both_o because_o my_o opinion_n be_v that_o people_n ought_v to_o be_v let_v blood_n once_o or_o twice_o a_o year_n by_o way_n of_o prevention_n and_o especial_o in_o the_o aforesaid_a great_a toe_n or_o what_o other_o part_n of_o the_o body_n have_v usual_o be_v most_o afflict_v with_o this_o disease_n as_o also_o because_o that_o when_o it_o have_v seize_v upon_o several_a joint_n at_o once_o the_o violence_n of_o it_o seem_v to_o require_v the_o open_n of_o a_o vein_n where_o neither_o the_o age_n of_o the_o person_n nor_o any_o other_o impediment_n be_v against_o the_o same_o and_o see_v it_o be_v confess_v and_o assent_v to_o by_o all_o physician_n that_o contrary_n be_v cure_v by_o contrary_n why_o may_v i_o not_o lift_v up_o my_o
