A most remarhable Cure, 369 



tlic unfortunate position of the planet Saturn, ^vho is by 

 nature cold and dry. No\v the remc ly must be antipa- 

 thetical to Pj , in this case I shall make choice of my* 

 patient's medicines from those herbs growing under the 

 dominion of the O and cT, cleansing the stomach and 

 liver of all phlegmatic humours and superfluities, accord- 

 ing to the direction given by the planet 1/, wiiich you 

 ■will find located in the 10th house, the house of medicine. 

 But in c:isc I make up this said medicine, which 1 am now 

 going to send unto this said lady, will she be ruled by my 

 directions, and willingly take the whole and every part of 

 the same, or otlierwise ? Which Avill bring us to 



Qtteuijti 7th, Will this said patient be ruled or 

 otherwise. 



Ansiaer. When we consider the nature of the case 

 together with the position of ^ and the in the l^th 

 house. She was guided as well, and perhaps something 

 better, than we could expe<5t. So that in a short period 

 our medicines by G oil's help and assistance restored her 

 most fully to enjoy her former good state of health. 



Lot you that are parents take warning by this one 

 fatal example which I have now set before you, and bo 

 careful with whom you entrust your children, for ap- 

 pearances are frequently found deceitful. Ruin and 

 distress sometimes come upon a person like a thief int 

 the night, even at a time when' we arc the least aware 

 ef it, and most unprepared to meet it. 1 need not 

 detain your attention any longer with my precepts 

 on this melancholy subject, seeing that yoa have so 

 many examples daily occurring among you of this nature, 

 ■which are sutBcient lessons of themselves to warn the wise. 



I shall therefore no-^v conclude this suhjeCl by in- 

 forming you that I have not only given you the cure 

 and remedy of every disease incident to the humaa 

 body in this book, but I have likewise givea you a most 

 etfe(iiual cure and remedy for all those evils and calamities 

 above mentioned ; if you think proper to duly observe 

 and attend to the same before your repentance comes too 

 late ; therefore read with attention without any further 

 delay page 162 of this book.
