TRANSCRIBER’S NOTE

Original spelling and grammar were generally retained. The cover image was constructed from the original title page, and is in the public domain. The following two corrections were made in conformance with the spirit of the list of [errata] on page vi.

[Page 9, l. 16.] “Pains about the Navel and Loins” was changed to “Pains about the Back, Navel and Loins”.

[Page 33, l. 12.] Changed “great Complaints of a smarting Pain; when I touch’d it a Suppuration” to “great Complaints of a smarting Pain when I touch’d it; a Suppuration”. This correction is not quite what the erratum on page vi recommends—but the recommendation is not quite correct.

[Page 21.] Changed “which happpen’d the same Day” to “which happen’d the same Day”.

[Page 49.] Changed “and its Secondines left” to “and its Secundines left”.
