may_v woo_v yet_o not_o for_o love_n but_o interest_n as_o for_o wealth_n or_o the_o like_a but_o when_o amorous_a lover_n plead_v it_o be_v for_o no_o other_o design_n but_o to_o lie_v with_o the_o

beside_o it_o require_v more_o secrecy_n and_o difficulty_n both_o which_o woman_n love_v but_o when_o maid_n widow_n and_o wife_n talk_v of_o husband_n suitor_n and_o lover_n they_o be_v so_o

it_o so_o it_o have_v also_o hard_a dry_a curd_n in_o it_o for_o milk_n be_v compound_v by_o nature_n of_o three_o substance_n as_o butter_n curd_n and_o whey_n as_o the_o oily_a earthy_a and_o watery_a part_n whereas_o cream_n have_v only_o the_o oily_a and_o watery_a part_n for_o thick_a cream_n can_v be_v turn_v into_o a_o hard_a curd_n which_o make_v it_o so_o much_o the_o better_o for_o dry_a curd_n be_v of_o the_o nature_n of_o horn_n as_o we_o may_v observe_v by_o such_o cheese_n as_o be_v make_v of_o fleet_v milk_n which_o be_v tough_a hard_a and_o insipid_a whereas_o cream-cheese_n be_v only_o press_a butter_n indeed_o it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v do_v as_o to_o make_v a_o cheese_n or_o cheese-curd_n only_o of_o thich_n cream_n unless_o there_o be_v water_n or_o thin_a milk_n mix_v with_o it_o it_o be_v true_a the_o whey_n of_o cream_n which_o be_v buttermilk_n will_v curdle_n that_o be_v when_o the_o oily_a part_n be_v take_v out_o of_o it_o and_o this_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o i_o say_v cream_n be_v more_o nourish_v and_o moisten_v than_o milk_n but_o i_o may_v chance_v to_o plead_v the_o good_a effect_n of_o cream_n and_o leave_v out_o the_o evil_a as_o i_o do_v once_o for_o brown_a bread_n which_o be_v that_o brown_a bread_n in_o effect_n be_v much_o cool_a than_o white_a my_o reason_n be_v that_o the_o flowery_a part_n be_v bolt_v out_o wherein_o lie_v the_o strength_n and_o so_o consequent_o the_o heat_n the_o remainder_n as_o the_o branny_n part_n be_v like_o grain_n which_o be_v the_o insipid_a part_n of_o barley_n so_o that_o brown_a bread_n in_o effect_n be_v like_o small_a ale_n and_o white_a bread_n like_o strong_a and_o for_o this_o reason_n i_o do_v eat_v brown_a bread_n but_o my_o weak_a stomach_n soon_o grow_v sick_a for_o though_o my_o reason_n find_v out_o the_o cool_a effect_n yet_o it_o do_v not_o perceive_v that_o the_o grossness_n make_v it_o hard_o of_o digestion_n until_o experience_n teach_v it_o so_o some_o may_v object_n that_o cream_n be_v thick_a than_o milk_n may_v not_o pass_v out_o of_o the_o stomach_n so_o easy_o but_o sure_o if_o the_o milk_n curdles_n in_o the_o stomach_n as_o certain_o it_o most_o usual_o do_v those_o curd_n will_v not_o only_o be_v hard_a to_o digest_v but_o breed_v great_a obstruction_n whereas_o cream_n which_o be_v as_o butter_n will_v make_v the_o body_n soluble_a yet_o though_o i_o argue_v for_o it_o i_o eat_v little_a of_o it_o by_o reason_n the_o nature_n of_o cream_n be_v hot_a and_o my_o diet_n be_v for_o the_o most_o part_n cooling_n some_o may_v say_v by_o reason_n milk_n nourish_v child_n it_o may_v nourish_v those_o that_o be_v grow_v up_o to_o year_n but_o experience_n tell_v we_o that_o the_o nature_n of_o mankind_n for_o

a_o man_n but_o perchance_o some_o have_v childish_a constitution_n all_o their_o life-time_n and_o the_o truth_n be_v that_o diet_n be_v much_o according_a to_o the_o constitution_n for_o that_o which_o will_n agree_v with_o some_o will_v disagree_v with_o other_o and_o for_o milk_n it_o better_o agree_v with_o weak_a constitution_n than_o strong_a yet_o woman_n milk_n and_o ass_n milk_n do_v
