‘ The Dialogue of fron: 
Serapio reciteth al that Rafts faith, woꝛde foꝛ warde: and 
becauſe I woulde not fay it twice together, 3 let it alone. 
Auicen followethj Raſis in all that he bath laid, adding this 
that followethtoit. Che water wherin pꝛon is quẽched, ma⸗ 
kety ſtrong the inner members by his atone pꝛopertie and 
manileſt qualitie: it comfozteth the ſtomack, foꝛ the water 
which doth quench what pꝛon, ſtrengtheneth the vertue, and 
tonſumeth the ſuperfluities of the ſtomack, ⁊ the ſuperllu⸗ 
ous moiſture thereof, fo2 thoſe are the thinges that take as 
Way appetite bp the loſeneſſe of the mouth of the ſtomack, 
e they arethoſe which extinguich and hil the natural heate: 
and the vꝛon by realon of the coldneſſe and dꝛithe, helpeth 
the knitting which is made inp mouth ofthe ſtomack, wher 
the appetite is ingendꝛed, it comfoꝛteth the Liuer andthe 
reſt ofthe interiour members it ſtrẽgtheneth natural heat, 
the line wes and powers ofthe bodie, and in ſuch ſoꝛt it doth 
giue them ſtrength, and they take ſuch vertue the rby;that 
they caſte from them the opilations: by reafon of which 
cauſes the Lunges are conſumed. It comforteth the vertue 
of generation, and this it doeth by conſuming the maiſture 
which is that which letteth r traubleth natural heat Which 
is neteſſarie therefoze, and if it be not done by his qualitie 
petit is done by his actidents. al this is ſpoken by Auicen, 
inthe ſecond ot his fir, as allo be faieth in the ſeconde Ca⸗ 
non where he pꝛaiſeth the vꝛon greatiy fo; Ringwoꝛmes, 
and foz ſwellings and faz the Gute, and mingled with Ai⸗ 
neger and put into the eares that of long time haue caft out 
matter, it healeththem, æ loꝛ the Harpies of the eie liddes, 
and to take awap a webbe 02 the whitenes of the eyes: and 
bee faith mozeouer that the Tyne which doseth quenche 
fhe Aron dogeth pꝛofite foz the Apoltumations in the 
Tunges, and for the loofenctte of the ſtomacke, and 
lo the weakeneſſe thereof it taketh away the ſuperũuous 
Flure ortge Pother: it drpeththe piles it takelh asp 
Hooles of ths bla dg Flure, it doocth goad to luch as bet
