THE Force of the Peruvian Bark Regularly administered, for giving a Vigour to the Blood, and so to the Spirits, has also been very Surprising And for the Recovering of People to an Healthy Constitution out of Splenetic and Hysteric Diseases.

BUT there is nothing like the Exercise of Riding on Horse-back, Every Day, when the Weather will allow it; and increasing the Journey by Degrees till one comes to a Score of Miles in a Day.
XXIII. UPON the Whole;
OF all the Remedies under Heaven, for the Conquering of Distempers, & for the Preservation of Health & Prolongation of Life, ⟨p. 17⟩There will now be found none, like Serious PIETY. Many Remedies have done Virtuously (& had their Virtues) but thou Excellest thou all. The Rational Soul in its Reflections h Powerful and Wonderful Influences on the Nishmath-Chajim. Now in the Methods of PIETY, get a Soul into the Peace of GOD, with Assurance of a Reconciliation to Him; and walk in the Fear of GOD, & the Comfort of the Holy Spirit; Keeping always in, and Filled always with, His Love; and Indulge none of those Lusts, which render the Wicked like the Troubled Sea. Keep a Conscience, which in a Continual Aim at what is Right shall make a Continual Feast. Be not Anxious about Futurities, nor Disturbed upon Provocations: But let the Strong Faith of a Faithful SAVIOUR Performing the Thing that is Appointed for us in all that happens, Produce a perpetual Tranquillity & Serenity in the Soul. Go on Singing in the Ways of the Lord, & Casting all Burdens on Him, & Rejoice in the Hope of the Glory of GOD. Thus, I show you a most Excellent Way.
