the_o tooth_n in_o reference_n to_o adult_v person_n and_o such_o as_o be_v past_a childhood_n we_o shall_v explain_v in_o this_o section_n as_o succinct_o and_o withal_o as_o clear_o as_o we_o can_v what_o be_v necessary_a to_o be_v know_v touch_v their_o growth_n and_o change_v in_o child_n a_o thing_n of_o no_o small_a consequence_n since_o the_o life_n of_o infant_n be_v therein_o so_o often_o concern_v the_o child_n be_v bear_v remain_v toothless_a till_o he_o be_v about_o five_o or_o six_o month_n old_a at_o which_o time_n his_o two_o foremost_a tooth_n in_o each_o jaw_n begin_v to_o appear_v without_o keep_v any_o constant_a order_n of_o precedence_n sometime_o those_o above_o come_v out_o first_o and_o sometime_o those_o below_o after_o they_o follow_v all_o the_o rest_n successive_o in_o both_o mandible_n so_o next_o to_o these_o come_v the_o four_o other_o incisore_n the_o four_o canin_n or_o dog-teeth_n and_o the_o first_o eight_o molares_fw-la which_o be_v proper_o the_o double_a tooth_n and_o then_o come_v the_o four_o big_a tooth_n of_o all_o which_o may_v be_v call_v quadruple_a tooth_n as_o be_v about_o three_o time_n big_a than_o the_o small_a one_o and_o after_o that_o the_o eight_o last_o tooth_n do_v follow_v which_o in_o respect_n to_o the_o incisore_n may_v be_v term_v treble_a tooth_n but_o these_o treble_a one_o usual_o vary_v very_o much_o in_o time_n of_o growth_n for_o it_o be_v but_o rare_o that_o they_o all_o come_v forth_o in_o the_o same_o year_n the_o four_o last_o of_o they_o seldom_o come_v out_o before_o the_o one_o or_o two_o and_o twenty_o year_n of_o our_o age_n for_o which_o reason_n such_o tooth_n be_v call_v by_o some_o tooth_n of_o wisdom_n because_o that_o by_o that_o time_n we_o shall_v have_v a_o full_a use_n of_o our_o rational_a faculty_n though_o god_n know_v how_o often_o it_o prove_v to_o be_v true_a the_o eight_o incisore_n and_o the_o four_o dog-teeth_n come_v the_o first_o year_n the_o eight_o double_a tooth_n the_o second_o year_n and_o the_o four_o quadruple_n with_o the_o four_o first_o treble_a one_o the_o three_o during_o the_o time_n of_o their_o eruption_n and_o especial_o when_o the_o four_o quadruple_a one_o break_v forth_o out_o of_o their_o socket_n child_n be_v subject_a to_o fever_n and_o great_a alteration_n which_o weaken_v they_o extreme_o and_o often_o put_v a_o end_n to_o their_o day_n which_o come_v to_o pass_v most_o common_o for_o want_v of_o help_n to_o facilitate_v their_o issue_n out_o of_o the_o gum_n and_o as_o i_o look_v upon_o the_o knowledge_n of_o child_n tooth_n as_o a_o subject_n proper_o belong_v to_o my_o profession_n so_o i_o think_v myself_o oblige_v to_o amend_v amplify_v and_o render_v it_o as_o conducive_a to_o the_o preservation_n of_o the_o life_n and_o health_n of_o child_n and_o to_o the_o prevent_n of_o all_o those_o infirmity_n wherewith_o they_o be_v afflict_v upon_o the_o account_n of_o the_o first_o come_n and_o shed_v of_o their_o tooth_n as_o my_o weak_a endeavour_n can_v make_v it_o and_o therefore_o i_o will_v to_o that_o end_n deliver_v here_o in_o few_o word_n what_o reason_n and_o experience_n have_v teach_v i_o concern_v the_o same_o proceed_v thus_o in_o the_o first_o place_n i_o will_v advise_v such_o as_o may_v be_v concern_v in_o this_o affair_n to_o take_v a_o special_a care_n in_o observe_v when_o the_o child_n tooth_n begin_v to_o trouble_v he_o which_o beside_o his_o frowardness_n and_o excessive_a cry_v may_v be_v know_v by_o his_o salivation_n or_o drivel_a as_o nurse_n be_v wont_a to_o style_v it_o and_o the_o inflammation_n and_o swell_a of_o his_o gum_n and_o as_o soon_o as_o you_o perceive_v it_o to_o be_v so_o you_o be_v to_o wash_v his_o mouth_n now_o and_o then_o with_o the_o follow_a mixture_n take_v seven_o or_o eight_o as_o new_a fig_n as_o you_o can_v get_v and_o boil_v they_o in_o a_o pint_n or_o more_o of_o whey_n till_o they_o grow_v very_o soft_a and_o then_o squeeze_v the_o whey_n and_o as_o much_o of_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o fig_n as_o you_o can_v through_o a_o cloth_n of_o which_o liquor_n take_v half_a a_o pint_n of_o honey_n of_o rose_n and_o syrup_n of_o violet_n of_o each_o half_n a_o ounce_n and_o three_o or_o four_o spoonful_n of_o plantain-water_n mix_v all_o together_o and_o keep_v it_o close_o in_o a_o bottle_n the_o best_a way_n to_o use_v it_o be_v with_o a_o stick_n of_o liquorish_a beat_v at_o one_o end_n into_o small_a thread_n like_o a_o comb-brush_n or_o little_a broom_n with_o which_o be_v dip_v in_o some_o of_o the_o say_a liquor_n you_o shall_v wash_v and_o rub_v the_o child_n gum_n especial_o where_o they_o be_v tumify_v at_o least_o five_o or_o six_o time_n a_o day_n continue_v so_o to_o do_v till_o you_o perceive_v the_o gum_n to_o grow_v white_a above_o the_o tooth_n which_o be_v a_o sign_n of_o great_a pain_n in_o that_o part_n and_o that_o the_o young_a tooth_n will_v in_o a_o little_a time_n break_v through_o the_o gum_n and_o then_o take_v a_o lancet_n or_o a_o very_a sharp_a penknife_n and_o divide_v the_o white_a place_n cut_v it_o down_o to_o the_o head_n of_o the_o subjacent_a tooth_n with_o two_o incision_n cross_v one_o another_o at_o the_o centre_n of_o the_o white_a spot_n continue_v to_o use_v the_o mixture_n as_o be_v aforesaid_a till_o the_o tooth_n appear_v above_o the_o gum_n observe_v to_o use_v the_o same_o method_n at_o the_o come_n out_o of_o every_o tooth_n which_o you_o may_v know_v by_o the_o forego_n token_n now_o the_o tooth_n be_v all_o come_v out_o except_o only_o such_o as_o remain_v latent_fw-la within_o the_o jaw_n till_o about_o the_o two_o and_o twenty_o year_n of_o one_o age_n they_o keep_v firm_a and_o strong_a till_o the_o child_n be_v a_o matter_n of_o six_o or_o seven_o year_n old_a and_o then_o most_o of_o they_o grow_v loose_a and_o a_o while_n after_o be_v cast_v clear_a out_o the_o treble_a tooth_n never_o change_v the_o quadruple_n very_o rare_o but_o the_o incisore_n the_o dog-teeth_n and_o the_o double_a one_o always_o do_v sometime_o whole_a and_o then_o the_o second_o tooth_n or_o those_o that_o be_v to_o succeed_v they_o be_v a_o long_a time_n before_o they_o grow_v up_o again_o but_o most_o common_o their_o head_n only_o come_v off_o the_o other_o part_n remain_v still_o for_o the_o make_n up_o of_o the_o next_o tooth_n like_v unto_o the_o first_o production_n of_o a_o vegetable_a seed_n or_o tender_a sprig_n of_o a_o young_a plant_n for_o as_o the_o upper_a part_n of_o this_o be_v wither_v in_o the_o winter_n follow_v by_o the_o rigorous_a cold_a of_o that_o season_n drop_v off_o in_o the_o next_o spring_n by_o reason_n that_o its_o texture_n be_v yet_o loose_a and_o less_o firm_a the_o pore_n or_o sap_n carry_v vessel_n be_v over_o much_o dilate_v by_o the_o great_a affluence_n of_o the_o nutritive_a juice_n and_o so_o give_v admittance_n to_o some_o indigested_a and_o grosser_n particle_n than_o be_v convenient_a for_o the_o nourishment_n of_o the_o vegetable_a which_o particle_n be_v irregular_a and_o unactive_a their_o motion_n be_v soon_o stop_v when-as_a a_o great_a cold_a intervening_a compress_n a_o little_a the_o young_a plant_n round_o about_o so_o that_o they_o be_v congeal_v and_o become_v fix_v in_o their_o duct_n or_o lead_v pipe_n whereby_o that_o part_n be_v deprive_v of_o its_o due_a nourishment_n fade_v away_o and_o dry_v up_o and_o be_v succeed_v by_o a_o new_a sprout_n shoot_v out_o of_o the_o stump_n or_o remain_v part_n so_o likewise_o the_o young_a tooth_n come_v into_o the_o cold_a air_n when_o they_o be_v yet_o tender_a and_o less_o solid_a those_o of_o they_o that_o be_v more_o susceptible_a of_o alteration_n and_o more_o expose_v to_o the_o inclemency_n of_o the_o weather_n as_o must_v be_v those_o before_o which_o by_o reason_n of_o their_o smallness_n and_o situation_n can_v but_o be_v more_o subject_n to_o adventitious_a accident_n be_v thereby_o chill_v and_o repress_v and_o their_o part_n thrust_v near_o one_o another_o and_o drive_v back_o towards_o their_o centre_n from_o whence_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o tooth_n become_v close_o and_o the_o interval_n between_o its_o part_n narrow_a and_o interrupt_v in_o several_a place_n by_o the_o irregular_a motion_n of_o some_o of_o the_o minute_a of_o those_o
