11 Bodily health is generally desired; (far more then endeavoured) it being an action of that natural propenseness, engrafted in all men, to their own good. Parents are provident to the bodies of their children, even those who set to slight a thought on their souls (showing herein ⟨p. 81⟩plainly that they brought forth their bodies, not their souls). Large and lavish is our indulgence, at all parts to this frail Tabernacle; yea so profuse, and not withholding, that whiles we seek more health, we loose that we had. Quaerendo perdimus, we seek it in full dishes, and behold there we lose it. For prohibent grands patinae. Would we know how to preserve health? I am no Physician, nor will I wade further in this argument, then divinity & reason leads me Let us observe moderation, labour in our calling, abstinence.
