ABSTRACT
§. I. When the two former Intention have been follow'd for a due Time with suitable suddefs, so that the Symptoms are abated, and tolerable Eafe is obtain'd, it will be then convenient to enter upon the Method and Medicines of the Third Intention: which will make the Case both more comfortable, and bring Spirits and Courage to go thro’ with it, being the last Stage towards a compleat Cure. For the Medicines here are more grateful to Nature, strengthening the digestive Powers, and making all the Functions more full and strong, so that Vigour and Chearfulness slaw in daily. And surely there is not a more agreeable Entertainment, both to Physician and Patient, than to observe the growing Steps of such a flattering Prospect, advancing gradually without Fear or Danger of Relapse, unless the Patient return to those Indiscretions that first begot these Disorders. This Pleasure I have enjoy'd myself once and again in both Capacities.
