           For
           doubtlesse

           from

           obstruct
           the
           passages
           of
           life
           ,
           poysoning

           body

           till
           it
           becomes

           very
           gently

           which
           will
           make
           you
           vomit

           then
           drink
           a

           To

           Some
           may
           think
           it

           Vomit

           a
           Vomit
           will
           not
           work
           ,
           you
           must
           help
           the
           same
           with
           putting

           Many

           neverthelesse
           I

           finde

           As
           to
           that
           which
           Physick
           books
           say
           ,
           That
           vomiting
           more
           often
           than
           twice
           a
           moneth
           is
           dangerous
           ,
           and
           may
           bring
           a
           man
           to
           an
           habit
           of
           vomiting
           ,
           and
           so
           weaken
           the
           stomach
           ,
           whereunto
           I
           doe
           agree

           If
           it
           be
           done
           by

           much
           good
           for
           this
           purpose

           the

           so
           the
           vomiting
           thereof
           doth
           much
           conduce
           to
           stay
           the

           Also
           if
           you

           The
           constant
           use
           hereof
           is
           very
           good

           I
           have
           spoken
           so
           much
           before
           
           concerning

           from
           the
           Stone

           that
           I
           need
           not
           say
           any
           more
           thereof
           :
           Yet
           I
           must
           once
           again
           ,
           upon
           certain
           evidence
           ,
           say
           ,
           That
           the
           often
           using

           doth
           exceedingly
           conduce
           to
           the
           help
           and
           cure
           of
           the
           Stone
           ;
           together
           with
           a
           temperate
           dyet
           ,
           but

           The
           Gout
           is
           the

           of
           the

           to
           seek
           some
           vent
           to
           get
           out
           of

           that
           the

           that
           it
           may
           be
           much
           eased

           so
           that
           a
           man
           may
           live
           long

           without
           much
           trouble

           Although
           vomiting
           is
           the
           principall
           means

           avoid
           the
           matter
           of

           there
           be
           other
           outward
           means
           to
           draw
           the
           goutie
           humor
           which
           remaineth

           the
           Mustard
           Plaister

           If
           the
           place
           doe
           blister
           ,
           prick
           the

           Take
           this
           Plaister
           from
           the
           place
           applyed

           once
           every
           twelve
           hours
           ,
           or
           oftener
           :
           W●pe
           the
           place
           affected
           ,
           and
           Plaister
           ,
           and
           so
           continue
           the
           same

           the
           place
           doth
           heal
           .
           Thus
           I
           have
           seen
           it
           often
           used

           and
           never
           miss
           admirable
           effects
           ;
           and
           without
           this
           course

           Although
           men
           generally
           conceive
           the
           Gout
           to
           be
           only
           a
           waterish
           humor
           ,
           yet
           ,
           by
           the
           use
           of
           the
           means
           aforesaid
           ,
           I
           have
           drawn
           out
           of
           the
           Feet
           and
           Hands
           ,
           humors
           of
           the
           thicknesse
           of
           white
           of
           
           Egges
           ;
           and
           when
           it
           had
           stood
           a
           quarter
           of
           an
           hour
           ,
           it
           grew
           to
           be
           a
           substance
           ,
           like
           leather
           ;
           so
           that
           I
           could
           scarce
           tear
           it
           with
           the
           strength
           of
           both
           my
           hands
           :
           which
           I
           verily
           beleeve
           is
           the
           humor
           which
           congeals
           in
           the
           hands
           ,
           and
           makes
           crooked
           and
           knotty
           hands
           .

           occasion

           that
           it
           may
           be
           expected
           I
           should
           write
           somewhat

           Stomachs

           But
           I
           finde
           every
           man
           so
           ready
           to

           and
           strong
           drinks
           ,
           that
           I
           need
           say
           no
           more
           thereof

           But
           ,

           have
           said
           before
           ,
           so
           I
           say
           still
           ,
           keepe
           the
           Stomach
           clean
           ,
           with

           said
           Whalebone
           Instrument

           you
           finde
           any
           disturbance

           loathsomnesse
           therein

           And
           keep
           the
           lower
           parts
           conveniently
           loose

           with

           said
           Suppositers
           :
           And
           draw
           out
           the
           humors
           which
           trouble
           the
           outward
           parts
           ,
           with
           the
           said
           Plaisters
           ,
           &c.
           
           And
           keep
           the
           body
           in
           a
           temperate
           heat
           ,
           as
           before
           ;
           and
           avoid
           intemperancy
           in
           dyet
           ;
           then
           there
           will

           There
           happened
           a
           strange
           cure
           to
           a

           I
           thought
           meet
           to
           discover
           .
           As

           by

           a
           poor

           wished

           to
           breath
           often
           in

           morning
           fasting

           which
           she
           did
           accordingly
           ;
           this
           made
           him
           to
           have
           a
           great
           itch
           in
           his
           eyes
           ,
           which
           made
           him
           rub
           his
           eyes
           often
           ,
           and
           with
           his
           nayles
           he
           drew
           some
           slime
           out
           of
           his
           eyes
           ;
           so
           that
           at
           three
           dayes
           end
           he
           began
           to
           see
           ,
           and
           shortly
           after
           he
           perfectly
           recovered
           his
           eye-sight
           .
           This
           was

           yeers
           past

           perfectly

           so

           saving
           ,
           that
           when
           I
           had
           the
           Gout
           again
           ,
           I
           did
           quickly
           and
           easily
           rid
           my self

           by
           drawing
           out
           the

           have
           before
           declared
           ,
           which
           makes
           me
           believe
           that
           these
           humors
           were
           vented
           from
           all
           parts
           of
           the

           as
           men
           doe
           usually

           Lastly
           ,
           seeing
           I
           have
           spoken

           much
           of

           other

           I
           think
           meet
