somewhat_o further_o to_o clear_v this_o weighty_a matter_n and_o particular_o some_o thing_n but_o brief_o hint_v in_o what_o i_o have_v be_v late_o discourse_v i_o think_v it_o fit_a before_o i_o descend_v to_o the_o particular_n that_o i_o be_o to_o employ_v against_o the_o vulgar_a notion_n of_o nature_n to_o premise_v somewhat_o by_o way_n of_o caution_n that_o i_o may_v do_v some_o right_n though_o i_o can_v never_o do_v enough_o to_o divine_a providence_n and_o take_v care_n betimes_o that_o no_o use_n injurious_a to_o it_o may_v be_v make_v of_o any_o thing_n that_o my_o argument_n have_v oblige_v i_o or_o will_v oblige_v i_o to_o say_v about_o that_o imaginary_a thing_n vulgar_o call_v nature_n either_o in_o this_o or_o the_o vi_o section_n or_o any_o other_o part_n of_o our_o present_a enquiry_n i_o conceive_v then_o that_o the_o divine_a author_n of_o thing_n in_o make_v the_o world_n and_o the_o particular_a creature_n that_o compose_v it_o have_v respect_n to_o several_a end_n some_o of_o they_o knowable_a by_o we_o man_n and_o other_o hide_v in_o the_o abyss_n of_o the_o divine_a wisdom_n and_o counsel_n and_o that_o of_o those_o end_n which_o be_v either_o manifest_a enough_o to_o we_o or_o at_o least_o discoverable_a by_o human_a sagacity_n and_o industry_n some_o of_o the_o principal_a be_v the_o manifestation_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n the_o utility_n of_o man_n and_o the_o maintenance_n of_o the_o system_fw-la of_o the_o world_n under_o which_o be_v comprise_v the_o conservation_n of_o particular_a creature_n and_o also_o the_o propagation_n of_o some_o kind_n of_o they_o but_o this_o general_a design_n of_o god_n for_o the_o welfare_n of_o man_n and_o other_o creature_n be_v not_o as_o i_o conceive_v to_o be_v understand_v but_o with_o a_o twofold_a limitation_n for_o first_o though_o man_n and_o other_o animal_n be_v furnish_v with_o faculty_n or_o power_n and_o other_o requisite_n to_o enable_v they_o to_o preserve_v themselves_o and_o procure_v what_o be_v necessary_a for_o their_o own_o welfare_n yet_o this_o provision_n that_o god_n have_v be_v please_v to_o make_v for_o they_o be_v make_v with_o reference_n to_o what_o regular_o or_o what_o most_o usual_o happen_v to_o being_n of_o that_o species_n or_o sort_v that_o they_o belong_v to_o but_o not_o with_o regard_n to_o such_o thing_n as_o may_v happen_v to_o they_o irregular_o contingent_o and_o in_o comparison_n of_o the_o other_o unfrequent_o thus_o it_o be_v in_o general_n far_o better_o for_o mankind_n that_o woman_n when_o they_o be_v bring_v to_o bed_n shall_v have_v their_o breast_n fill_v with_o milk_n to_o give_v suck_v to_o the_o newborn_a babe_n than_o that_o they_o shall_v not_o though_o sometime_o as_o if_o the_o child_n die_v in_o the_o delivery_n or_o present_o after_o and_o in_o some_o other_o case_n also_o the_o plentiful_a recourse_n of_o milk_n to_o the_o mother_n breast_n prove_v troublesome_a and_o inconvenient_a and_o sometime_o also_o dangerous_a to_o she_o thus_o a_o head_n of_o hair_n be_v for_o the_o most_o part_n useful_a to_o the_o person_n whether_o man_n or_o woman_n that_o nature_n have_v furnish_v with_o it_o though_o in_o some_o case_n as_o of_o consumption_n and_o in_o a_o few_o other_o circumstance_n it_o happen_v to_o be_v prejudicial_a to_o the_o wearer_n and_o therefore_o physician_n do_v often_o with_o good_a success_n prescribe_v that_o it_o be_v shave_v off_o thus_o the_o instinct_n that_o hen_n have_v to_o hatch_n their_o egg_n and_o take_v care_n of_o their_o young_a be_v in_o general_n very_o useful_a if_o not_o necessary_a for_o the_o conservation_n of_o that_o species_n of_o bird_n and_o yet_o it_o sometime_o mis-guides_a and_o delude_v they_o when_o it_o make_v they_o take_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o pain_n to_o brood_n upon_o those_o duck-egg_n that_o housewife_n have_v take_v a_o way_n the_o bird_n own_o egg_n lie_v in_o her_o nest_n which_o make_v she_o very_o solicitous_a to_o hatch_n and_o take_v care_n of_o duckling_n instead_o of_o chicken_n thus_o it_o be_v a_o institution_n that_o ordinary_o be_v profitable_a for_o man_n that_o his_o stomach_n shall_v nauseate_n or_o reject_v thing_n that_o have_v a_o loathsome_a taste_n or_o smell_v because_o the_o generality_n of_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v provide_v for_o his_o nourishment_n be_v well_o or_o at_o least_o not_o ill-tasted_n and_o yet_o on_o some_o occasion_n of_o sickness_n that_o disposition_n of_o the_o stomach_n to_o refuse_v or_o vomit_v up_o nauseous_a purge_n and_o other_o distasteful_a medicine_n as_o such_o remedy_n be_v usual_o loathsome_a enough_o prove_v very_o prejudicial_a by_o be_v a_o great_a impediment_n to_o the_o recovery_n of_o health_n and_o thus_o to_o be_v short_a the_o passion_n of_o the_o mind_n such_o as_o fear_v joy_n and_o grief_n be_v give_v to_o man_n for_o his_o good_a and_o when_o right_o use_v be_v very_o advantageous_a if_o not_o absolute_o necessary_a to_o he_o though_o when_o they_o grow_v unruly_a or_o be_v ill-managed_a as_o it_o but_o too_o often_o happen_v they_o frequent_o prove_v the_o cause_n of_o disease_n and_o of_o great_a mischief_n as_o well_o to_o the_o passionate_a man_n himself_o as_o to_z other_o the_o second_o limitation_n which_o have_v a_o natural_a connexion_n with_o the_o former_a be_v this_o that_o the_o omniscient_a author_n of_o thing_n who_o in_o his_o vast_a and_o boundless_a understanding_n comprehend_v at_o once_o the_o whole_a system_n of_o his_o work_n and_o every_o part_n of_o

begin_v about_o distemper_n wont_a to_o be_v harmless_a by_o be_v transient_a we_o may_v observe_v that_o the_o three_o or_o four_o day_n after_o woman_n be_v bring_v to_o bed_n there_o be_v common_o a_o kind_n of_o fever_n produce_v upon_o the_o plentiful_a resort_n of_o the_o milk_n to_o the_o breast_n for_o which_o cause_n this_o distemper_n be_v by_o many_o call_v the_o fever_n of_o milk_n and_o this_o be_v wont_a in_o a_o short_a time_n to_o pass_v away_o of_o itself_o as_o depend_v upon_o cause_n far_o less_o durable_a than_o the_o oeconomy_n of_o the_o woman_n body_n and_o if_o it_o be_v object_v that_o these_o be_v not_o disease_n because_o they_o happen_v according_a to_o the_o institute_v course_n of_o nature_n i_o will_v not_o now_o dispute_v the_o validity_n of_o the_o consequence_n though_o i_o can_v represent_v that_o the_o labour_n of_o teem_v woman_n and_o the_o breed_n of_o tooth_n in_o child_n happen_v as_o much_o according_a to_o the_o institution_n of_o nature_n and_o yet_o be_v usual_o very_o painful_a and_o oftentimes_o dangerous_a but_o i_o will_v rather_o answer_v that_o if_o the_o troublesome_a accident_n i_o have_v allege_v can_v serve_v to_o prove_v they_o may_v at_o least_o to_o illustrate_v what_o i_o aim_v at_o and_o i_o shall_v proceed_v to_o take_v notice_n of_o a_o distemper_n that_o physician_n general_o reckon_v among_o disease_n i_o mean_v the_o flow_a of_o blood_n at_o the_o haemorrhoidal_a vein_n for_o though_o oftentimes_o this_o flux_n of_o blood_n be_v excessive_a and_o so_o become_v very_o dangerous_a and_o therefore_o must_v be_v check_v by_o the_o physician_n which_o be_v no_o great_a argument_n that_o a_o be_v wise_a and_o watchful_a manage_n this_o evacuation_n yet_o frequent_o if_o not_o for_o the_o most_o

perhaps_o any_o at_o all_o to_o the_o body_n and_o so_o we_o see_v that_o many_o cough_n and_o hoarseness_n and_o coryzas_fw-la be_v say_v to_o be_v cure_v that_o be_v do_v cease_v to_o trouble_v
