Abel was wounded and kill'd by Cain, and can we imagine that Adams Prudence would not uſe its Chirugical' endevours to redreſs ſuch diſaſters, when poſſible[?]”

“For none but a clever dialectician / Can hope to become a great physician; / […] / After this there are five years more / Devoted wholly to medicine, / With lectures on chirurgical lore, / And dissections of the bodies of swine, / As likest the human form divine.”
