 | Flamma sine Fumo |  |
The Consumption.
Foul humors do descend: thin and sharp rume
Fall from the head, and doth the Lungs consume.
Short cough, short breath, and faintness, never cease
To be companions of this sad disease.
Fall from the head, and doth the Lungs consume.
Short cough, short breath, and faintness, never cease
To be companions of this sad disease.
Use for thy constant drink, strong, pleasant Ale
Warm'd by the fire, which shall thy strength recall.
Resort to merry men, that love thee well,
And pray to God all discontents t'expell.
I know more cures for it; but I protest,
Amongst them all I censure this the best.
Warm'd by the fire, which shall thy strength recall.
Resort to merry men, that love thee well,
And pray to God all discontents t'expell.
I know more cures for it; but I protest,
Amongst them all I censure this the best.
