A39844	The preternatural state of animal humours described by their sensible qualities, which depend on the different degrees of their fermentation and the cure of each particular cacochymia is performed by medicines of a peculiar specific taste, described : to this treatise are added two appendixes I. About the nature of fevers and their ferments and cure by particular tastes, II. Concerning the effervescence and ebullition of the several cacochymia's ... / by the author of Pharmacho bazagth.

some of our Humours rarefied into Spirits or Vapours Melancholy Distempers are deduced from Spirits drawn from that Cacochymia The Phrenitis from Choleric Spirits and the Epilepsie from Fumes As to the use of the Brain Galen observes That the Skins and outward Part of the Brain may be cut away without loss of Sense or Motion but when the Medullary Part of the Brain or Nerves is wounded both perish He asserts That the Nerves bring the Faculty of Motion to the Muscles by this Experiment If a Nerve be cut or the Spinal Marrow all the Parts below the Incision lose their Sense and Motion but those above preserve it He was as much perplexed about the Porosity of the Nerves as the Moderns but neither can otherways explain the Diseases of the Nerves than by supposing some Aerial and innate Animal Particles like Vapours passing through the Nerves to give them a Tension And as no Age could ever doubt of the Passage of the Chyle into the Blood before the Discovery of the Lacteals so we are forced to confess the Contents of the Nerves though we can no way discern them for upon the Death of an Animal the Spirits may readily sink into the Muscles or Veins or Lymphatics and Glandules or else be so Aerial as many Liquors be which evaporate upon the least approach of Air or else their Minute Canals suspend their Liquors as small Glass-Pipes do But it seems most probable That proper Experiments have not yet been made by Ligature or Incisions in Living Animals which might demonstrate the Nervine Lympha and it is impossible at present for us otherwise to explain the Nature of the Spirits than by comparing them to Air or Fire till we can by some lucky Experiment discover the Contents of the Nerves and their particular Qualities I have added Two Appendixes to this Treatise of Animal Humours The First describes the Nature of Fevers and their Ferments and the Second deduces many Diseases from the simple Ebullition Effervescence or Orgasmus of the Blood on which most Inflammations Tumours Pains and Fluxes of Humours depend and without a due respect to that Effervescence none of the mentioned Diseases can be rationally cured In the ensuing Treatise I have endeavoured to explain the Opinion of the Ancients in all their Discourse of Fevers but we are obliged to the Ingenious Car. Piso for giving the first hint of Diseases depending on an Effervescence of the Serum but that wanted a farther Explication because he knew not the Circulation of Humours nor the Use of the Glands nor the true Nature of the Serum of the Blood and that the Effervescence is in the Mass of Blood and the Serum has only a violent Motion given by the Ebullition which forces it to pass those Glands through which the Fluxion is made and that Pains cause Fluxions only by stopping the Circulation of Humours by contracting the Vessels by help of the Convulsed Nerves and that all Tumours happen by the Obstruction or Stagnation of Humours in the Circulating Vessels Books Printed for and Sold by R.
