A33709	A physico medical essay concerning alkaly and acid so far as they have relation to the cause or cure of distempers : wherein is endeavoured to be proved that acids are not (as is generally and erroneously supposed) the cause of all or most distempers, but that alkalies are : together with an account of some distempers and the medicines with their preparations proper to be used in the cure of them : as also a short digression concerning specifick remedies / by John Colbatch.	Colbatch, John, Sir, 1670-1729.	1696 (1696)	Wing C5003; ESTC R26032	33,359	174

here_o i_o expect_v that_o people_n will_v think_v that_o i_o have_v catch_v myself_o in_o a_o trap_n when_o i_o bring_v in_o calibiat_n among_o the_o number_n of_o acid_n when_o they_o be_v general_o own_v by_o all_o mankind_n to_o be_v alkaly_n to_o confirm_v the_o truth_n of_o which_o they_o tell_v you_o it_o be_v plain_o manifest_a that_o file_n of_o iron_n will_v make_v as_o great_a a_o effervescency_n with_o all_o sort_n of_o acid_n as_o any_o of_o the_o alkaly_n i_o have_v mention_v therefore_o it_o be_v plain_a i_o must_v be_v much_o in_o the_o wrong_n in_o reckon_a calibiat_n among_o the_o number_n of_o acid_n from_o this_o difficulty_n i_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o extricate_v myself_o and_o likewise_o to_o prove_v that_o iron_n or_o steel_n until_o it_o be_v convert_v into_o a_o vitriol_n and_o every_o body_n will_v allow_v vitriol_n to_o be_v a_o acid_n can_v act_v upon_o the_o blood_n or_o serum_fw-la to_o cause_n any_o alteration_n in_o it_o nor_o so_o much_o as_o any_o way_n enter_v into_o the_o vein_n or_o artery_n it_o be_v the_o custom_n of_o skilful_a practitioner_n before_o they_o give_v steel_n medicine_n to_o inquire_v of_o their_o patient_n whether_o they_o be_v sensible_a of_o any_o acidity_n in_o their_o stomach_n in_o which_o part_n i_o do_v allow_v acid_n oftentimes_o to_o abound_v and_o that_o exorbitant_o if_o they_o be_v sensible_a of_o any_o acidity_n there_o it_o be_v then_o find_v necessary_a to_o give_v iron_n or_o steel_n without_o any_o preparation_n at_o all_o by_o reason_n that_o by_o the_o mean_n of_o the_o acid_n in_o the_o stomach_n it_o be_v turn_v into_o a_o vitriol_n and_o so_o make_v capable_a of_o be_v carry_v into_o the_o blood_n whereas_o in_o such_o case_n if_o it_o have_v be_v before_o satiate_v by_o a_o precedent_a preparation_n it_o have_v little_a or_o no_o effect_n at_o all_o on_o the_o other_o hand_n if_o there_o be_v no_o sensible_a acidity_n in_o the_o stomach_n iron_n or_o steel_n be_v give_v unprepared_a be_v carry_v off_o by_o stool_n without_o the_o least_o alteration_n or_o any_o part_n of_o it_o be_v admit_v into_o the_o blood_n all_o or_o most_o of_o the_o preparation_n of_o steel_n that_o i_o know_v of_o that_o be_v good_a for_o any_o thing_n be_v perform_v by_o the_o mean_n of_o acid_n which_o tend_v to_o the_o divide_v of_o their_o part_n and_o turn_v they_o into_o a_o vitriol_n now_o according_a to_o the_o difference_n of_o the_o acid_v use_v the_o result_n be_v a_o different_a sort_n of_o vitriol_n which_o have_v different_a operation_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a alkaly_n do_v so_o lock_v up_o the_o body_n of_o iron_n as_o to_o make_v it_o unfit_a to_o be_v take_v as_o medicine_n by_o reason_n of_o its_o extraordinary_a hardness_n and_o firmness_n of_o texture_n the_o preparation_n of_o steel_n i_o general_o use_v be_v that_o which_o go_v by_o the_o name_n of_o dr._n willis_n preparation_n of_o steel_n and_o be_v now_o almost_o
