Good Councell
against the plague.

Shewing sundry present preseruatiues for the same, by wholsome fumes, drinks, vomits, and other inward receits: as also, the perfect cure (by implaysture) of any that are therewith infected.

Nowe necessary to be obserued of euery Housholder, to auoyde the infection, lately begun in some places of this Cittie.

Written by a learned Phisition, for the health of his Countrey.

To the Reader.

or as much as the force and enfection of the ordenarye disease, called the Plague or pestilence, hath heeretofore beene too well knowne and felt, in sundry places of this Realme: and considering, that it hath of late begun to increase in sundry chiefe citties & populous places; I thought it good to publish to you in time, sundry preseruatiues against the said disease, the better to defend those that are in health, from the infection of the diseased. And also to cure those that are any way infected, grieued, or troubled with the same. And to this I was imboldned, the rather for that it was written by a very learned and approoued Phisition, of our time, who desireth more the health of hys Countrey, than by discocouering his name, seeme vaine-glorious to the world. Accept this same I pray you in good part, and thanke God for the Phisitions paynes, who hath his desire, if it may doe but that which hee wisheth: namely to expell sicknes, and encrease health to this Land. Which God for his mercie sake, prosper and preserue from all plagues and daungers, for euermore. Amen.
