to_o the_o four_o inconvience_n which_o may_v follow_v thereupon_o 22_o the_o first_o inconvenience_n be_v that_o by_o repress_v sweat_v it_o may_v engender_v disease_n from_o those_o excrementitious_a humour_n to_o this_o a_o remeby_n must_v be_v give_v by_o purge_n and_o clyster_n that_o evacuation_n may_v be_v due_o perform_v this_o be_v certain_a that_o evacuation_n by_o

be_v that_o it_o may_v heat_v the_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d in_o time_n inflame_v it_o for_o the_o spirit_n shut_v in_o and_o not_o breathe_v forth_o acquire_v heat_n this_o inconvenience_n may_v 〈◊〉_d prevent_v

upon_o the_o blood_n 24_o the_o three_o be_v that_o it_o may_v 〈◊〉_d the_o head_n for_o all_o 〈◊〉_d from_o without_o strike_v back_o the_o vapour_n and_o send_v they_o up_o unto_o the_o head_n this_o inconvenience_n be_v remedy_v by_o purger_n especial_o clyster_n and_o by_o shut_v the_o mouth_n of_o the_o stomach_n strong_o with_o stiptic_o and_o by_o comb_v and_o rub_v the_o head_n and_o wash_v it_o with_o convenient_a lie_n that_o something_o may_v exhale_v and_o by_o not_o omit_v competent_a and_o good_a exercise_n that_o something_o also_o may_v perspire_v by_o the_o skin_n 25_o the_o four_o inconvenience_n be_v a_o more_o subtle_a evil_n namely_o that_o the_o spirit_n be_v detain_v by_o the_o close_v up_o of_o the_o pore_n be_v likely_a to_o multiply_v itself_o too_o much_o for_o when_o little_o issue_v forth_o and_o new_a spirit_n be_v continual_o engender_v the_o spirit_n increase_v too_o fast_o and_o so_o prey_v upon_o the_o body_n more_o plentiful_o but_o this_o be_v not_o altogether_o so_o for_o all_o spirit_n close_v up_o be_v dull_a for_o it_o be_v blow_v and_o excite_v with_o motion_n as_o flame_n be_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v less_o active_a and_o less_o generative_a of_o itself_o indeed_o it_o be_v thereby_o increase_v in_o heat_n as_o flame_n be_v but_o slow_a in_o motion_n and_o therefore_o the_o remedy_n to_o this_o inconvenience_n must_v be_v by_o cold_a thing_n be_v sometime_o mix_v with_o oil_n such_o as_o be_v reses_n and_o myrtle_n for_o we_o must_v altogether_o disclaim_v hot_a thing_n as_o be_v say_v of_o csia_n 26_o neither_o will_v it_o be_v unprofitable_a to_o wear_v next_o the_o body_n garment_n that_o have_v in_o they_o some_o vnctuosity_n or_o oleositie_n not_o aquositie_n for_o they_o will_v exhaust_v the_o body_n less_o 〈◊〉_d be_v those_o of_o woollen_a rather_o than_o those_o of_o linen_n 〈◊〉_d it_o be_v manifest_a in_o the_o spirit_n of_o odour_n that_o if_o you_o lie_v sweet-powder_n among_o linen_n they_o will_v much_o soon_o lose_v their_o smell_n than_o among_o woollen_a and_o therefore_o linen_n be_v to_o be_v prefer_v for_o delicacy_n and_o neatness_n but_o to_o be_v 〈◊〉_d for_o our_o operation_n 27_o the_o wild_a irish_a as_o soon_o as_o they_o fall_v sick_a the_o first_o thing_n they_o do_v be_v to_o take_v the_o sheet_n off_o their_o bed_n and_o to_o wrap_v themselves_o in_o the_o woollen_a

than_o new_a air_n and_o often_o change_v and_o therefore_o poor_a people_n in_o small_a cottage_n who_o live_v always_o within_o the_o smell_n of_o the_o same_o chimney_n and_o change_v not_o their_o
