After considering the whole circumstances of [Mr Rose's?] com¬
plaints we are clearly of opinion that there is no {illeg}
at {illeg} & {illeg} in his blood but what is owing to a {illeg}
{illeg} and which we hope [may be?]
easily removed.

Particularly {illeg} [that there is a?] {illeg}
{illeg} {illeg}ely in his going to Harrogate. His {illeg}
does not require it and is on {illeg} With respect to the
{illeg} and not allow his {illeg} that water {illeg}

The measures we think proper for him are the following.
Let him take every night in {illeg} [two?] table spoonfulls of
the diaphoretic solution prescribed on a paper apart,
washing it down with a draught of the Decoction [which?]
prescribed on the same paper.

The doses of solution may [probably?] make him [sick and?]
and squeamish and if they do it to any degree the [dose should?]
be diminished and as the sickness is most likely to appear
on the {illeg} that may be made one spoonfull.

[As?] there is [about?] Mr Rose's head a {illeg} {illeg}tude of the
{illeg} we think it is particularly necessary to strengthen
this part by cold bathing but it is to be proceeded in with
some caution in the following manner. Let him take two
Scotch pints of water from a spring or deep pit well but not
from any brook or river & to this water as immediately taken
[up?] add a chopin of boiling water and when mixed let it be
[poured?] from a proper vessel upon the crown of his head held over
[a?] bason. This bathing is to be repeated every morning soon
as he comes out of bed but every second morning let the
boiling water be diminished by one gill or quarter of
[mutchkin?] and in this way he will come to bear it quite
{illeg} and may continue it in that way as long as he finds
any good effects from it particularly in making him less
liable to take cold in his head and thereby rendering him
less liable either to headach or inflammation of his [Eyes?].

Whilst these measures are carrying on Mr Rose must give
some attention to his diet. He should not for some time taste any
kind of fish. For what remains of summer & harvest he should take
no meat at night. At dinner he should take very moderately of
animal food and should take as much of garden things as he can
easily digest. For his ordinary drink water or water with a little
wine in it is the most proper and all kind of malt liquors are more
fit. A few glasses of wine after dinner or supper are allowable
but it is a few only as being in the least heated by strong drink –
will always do much harm. Under the same restriction some
punch may be taken but it is not so safe as wine.

Moderate Exercise is very proper and especially riding on
horseback. In walking or other bodily exercise he should take care
never to be heated by it.

In every situation he should take care to avoid cold and par¬
ticularly about his head & neck.
