是书所选诸方，均系经验神效无比，原意为乡间而设，故并无贵重之药，多系眼前常用
之物，易于购置，盖用药只须对症，原不必贵重之品方可治病也。切勿因其平易而轻视之，
妄行增减，转致贻误。
是书有一症多至数方及十数方者，缘恐症发之时，适无是药，故重载数方，以备临时择
用。
遇症觅方，须细心翻阅。如头面身体等处疮毒，俱列在痈疽门；伤寒时疫、癫痫中风、
痨症吐血、呃逆反胃等症，俱列入杂症门；乳吹在妇女门；乳痈在痈疽门； 疮在四肢门；
喉痈喉蛾列喉舌门。以类相及，余俱仿此，他未条分识者谅之。
是书无论城乡贫富，皆宜家置一部，以备仓猝之用，利人利己，是以镌竣，后将原版存
于刻字铺听人随时刷印，所需纸张工价无多，有同志者，尽可广为刷印施送，较之送善书经
卷，功德何如，识者自知。若能翻刻俾流各省，则济人益普，阴 更无涯矣。
是方之印，既本于仁心，必使人物咸遂其生，凡选方间有伤害物命，以治疾者，于心终
有不忍，望患病者务须先用他法疗治，如不得不用，可取死物应之，己求保生，转而害生。
呜乎，可自来戒杀放生，造福无量，万勿轻忽也。
是书于闲暇之时，宜随时翻阅，知某疾以某物治，某病以其法去，留心记忆，或预蓄，
或传说，一遇危急，即与拯救，寿己寿人，所关岂浅先哉。
远方现无此版，如刷印是书送人，以当土议价，省功大计莫善焉。

本书所选用的各方，都是经过验证、疗效神奇且无与伦比的。编写初衷是为了方便乡村百姓使用，因此没有选用贵重药材，大多都是日常生活中常见之物，容易购买。因为用药只要对症即可，原本就不必非要用贵重物品才能治病。千万不要因为药方平易普通就轻视它，随意增减药味，反而导致延误病情。
书中有一症对应多达数方甚至十数方的情况，是担心发病时恰好没有某种药物，所以重复记载多个方剂，以备临时选择使用。
遇到病症寻找方子时，必须细心翻阅。例如头面身体等处的疮毒，都列在“痈疽门”；伤寒、时疫、癫痫、中风、劳症吐血、呃逆反胃等症状，都列入“杂症门”；乳吹（乳腺炎）在“妇女门”；乳痈（急性乳腺炎）在“痈疽门”；四肢部位的疮疡在“四肢门”；喉痈、喉蛾（扁桃体炎）列在“喉舌门”。按照类别归纳，其余部分也仿照此例，未能详细分类说明的地方，请读者谅解。
无论城乡贫富之家，都适宜家中置备一部此书，以备紧急之需，既利人又利己。因此刻印完成后，将原版存放在刻字铺，供人随时刷印。所需纸张和工价不多，有志同道合者，完全可以广泛刷印赠送，这比起赠送善书经卷，功德如何，有识之士自然明白。如果能翻刻流传到各省，那么救济世人将更加普遍，阴德更是无边无际了。
印制此书源于仁爱之心，必定希望人与物都能顺应其天性而生存。凡选方中若有伤害生灵性命以治疗疾病的情况，心中终究不忍。希望患病者务必先尝试其他疗法，如果不得不用这些涉及杀生的药物，可取已死之物来替代，以免为了保全生命反而伤害生命。唉，自古以来戒杀放生，造福无量，万万不可轻忽。
这本书在闲暇之时，宜随时翻阅，知道哪种疾病用什么药物治疗，哪种病用什么方法去除，留心记忆，或者预先储备，或者口耳相传，一旦遇到危急情况，就能立即施救，既能延寿自己也能延寿他人，所关联的意义难道不深远吗？
远方目前还没有此书版本，如刷印此书送人，当作土特产议价交换，节省功夫且是大计，没有比这更好的了。

The prescriptions selected in this book are all proven to be extraordinarily effective. They were originally intended for use in rural areas; therefore, no expensive medicinal materials are included, but rather common items readily available and easy to purchase. Medication only needs to be symptomatic; it is not necessary to use expensive products to treat diseases. Do not despise these prescriptions due to their simplicity or make arbitrary additions and deletions, which may lead to delayed treatment.
In this book, one symptom may correspond to several or even more than ten prescriptions. This is done out of concern that the specific medicine might not be available when the symptoms arise. Thus, multiple prescriptions are recorded to allow for selection at the moment of need.
When seeking a prescription for a condition, one must read carefully. For example, sores and toxins on the head, face, and body are listed under the section "Carbuncles and Ulcers" (Yong Ju); cold damage, epidemic febrile diseases, epilepsy, stroke, consumption with hemoptysis, hiccups, and regurgitation are listed under the section "Miscellaneous Diseases"; breast abscesses (Ru Chui) are in the section "Women's Diseases"; mastitis (Ru Yong) is in the section "Carbuncles and Ulcers"; sores on the limbs are in the section "Limbs"; throat abscesses and tonsillitis (Hou E) are listed under the section "Throat and Tongue". Items are categorized accordingly, and the rest follow this pattern. Readers will understand if some details are not strictly classified.
Regardless of urban or rural location, or wealth or poverty, every household should keep a copy for emergency use. It benefits both others and oneself. Upon completion of printing, the original blocks are kept in the printing shop for anyone to print as needed. The cost of paper and labor is minimal. Those with similar intentions can widely print and distribute them. Compared to donating good-deed books or sutras, the merit is immeasurable, as those with insight will know. If reprinted and circulated to various provinces, the benefit to people will be even more widespread, and the hidden virtue boundless.
The printing of this book stems from a benevolent heart, aiming to ensure that humans and all living things thrive. Wherever possible, prescriptions that harm living creatures to cure disease are avoided due to compassion. Patients are urged to try other treatments first. If such ingredients are absolutely necessary, dead animals should be used instead, so as not to kill life while trying to preserve it. Alas, since ancient times, abstaining from killing and releasing life has created immense merit. This must never be neglected.
This book should be read during leisure time. Learn which disease is treated by which substance, and which illness is cured by which method. Keep these in mind, prepare them in advance, or pass them down orally. In case of emergencies, they can be used immediately for rescue, extending life for oneself and others. The significance is profound.
In distant regions where this edition is unavailable, printing copies to give as gifts or trade as local specialties saves effort and is highly beneficial.
