Cure.
His Cure is very desperate: his best reprehension is deprehension: and the best purge is to purge him out of the land. Hiera picra Galeni is a sovereign confection to clarify him. Let him be fed, as Physicians prescribe in the cure of the corporal disease, with fat suppings: and let him drink abundantly, till he forget the date of his bonds. Turn him out from the chimney-corner into some wilderness, that he may have a cold and perspirable air. Give him a good vomit of Stibium, till he hath spued up his extortions. Let his diet-drink be repentance, his daily exercise restoring to every man his gotten interest. Give him a little Opium, to rock his cares a sleep: and when he is cold, make him a good fire of his Bills and Bonds. Give him a Julep of the Gospel, to beget in him the good blood of faith. If nothing work with him, let him make 1his will, and hear his sentence, that he shall never dwell with the blessed.
