fewe woordes I haue proued here bothe by reason and by experience that the knowledge of this part named Phisiologia doeth chiefely and specially apertein to the arte of Chirurgerie and without the knowledge hereof we shal neuer rightly or methodically cure any maner of woūd griefe or disease neither is he worthie to take the name of a Phisition neither yet of a Chirurgion but to be called by the name of an Emprike or experimenter curing onely by chaunce without any reason but euen as the blinde Carpenter which Galen hath spoken of before sometime cutting to much and some time to little and many times marring all his woorke for want of skill ere that he beware Now to conclude for this first part he that will be further instructed herein let him reade Hip. de natura hominis humoribus elamentis de natura formatione fetus many other bookes of Hyppocrates and chiefelie that where he diuided the similer parts As Osteotome that is to saie the diuision of the bones Condrotome the Cartalages Syndestmotome the ligaments Arteriotome the Arteries Phlebotomae veines Neurotome the nerues Miotome diuiding of the Muscles Tenontotome the tendons c. There be diuers other bookes of Galen which be verie profitable to be read for this matter as his bookes of Anathomie also his bookes De temperamentis de optima corporis constitutione de facultatibus naturalibus de placitis Hippocrates Platonis de motu musculorum de causis respirationis and manie more worthie bookes of his which we will let passe There bée manie other bookes also written by diuerse men as Guido and other which doe intreate of these naturall things and speciallie of the Anatomie of mans bodie and for that you may the easilier better vnderstand these naturall things which euerie Chirurgion ought to know and haue in perfect memorie to that end he may remoue those things which doth hurt them or let them of their perfect operation which you may easilie knowe if you vnderstand their natures and properties figures c.

If they come of inward causes then they make tumors against nature as Phlegmō Eresipula Oedema Sirrhus with many kinde of malignant and stubburne vlcers to be cured which tumours and vlcers cannot be made whole except their causes with their euill affects may be remoued and taken awaie I suppose that there is no man but hée will iudge this part of the art chieflie to pertaine to Chyrurgerie for that it taketh cure of wounds vlcers and tumors against nature as I haue said before Then if this part doe appertaine to the art of Chyrurgerie as it is most certaine it doeth it behoueth the Chyrurgion perfectlie and rightlie to vnderstand what kinde of sicknesses there be with their differences names what partes of the bodie these sicknesses may be in and what manner of sicknesse it maketh in the same partes As for example euill complection maketh a distemperature in the similer parts euil constitution or euil cōposition maketh a deformitie or imbecilitie in the instrumentall partes And solution of vnitie or continuitie chaunceth both in the similer partes and instrumentall And all these doe appertaine to the Chirurgion to haue most exact knowledge of for he that taketh vpon him to cure an vlcer or a wound or anie other manner of griefe and doth not know the nature of the parts neither yet what part it is in neither yet the cause neither how to remooue the same cause it is vnpossible as I haue sayde before that he shoulde cure the same griefes or diseases rightlie And therefore these blinde emperikes that haue neither reason nor method to leade them to doe those things which they dailie doe I saie their dooings are so pernitious that many people taketh great hurt thereby shall I saie hurte nay rather brought to vtter destruction and many times to death The Symptoma or accidents which followeth sicknesse is also diuided into thrée partes The first is the qualitie being altered as with vehement heate in Phlegmon The action or function hurt but not vtterlie depriued The action vtterlie depriued and taken awaie For these causes aboue rehearsed it is speciallie required that a Chirurgion shoulde be learned and also to haue greate experience that hée maye rightlie iudge and discerne one disease from another with their natures and causes to the end that when you come to the curation thereof you may take right indications what to do first what next and so foorth to the end for other waies you may applie medicines nothing fit for the purpose but those that might doe great harme and you might also applie those first that would be applied last and those last which should be applyed first and in the end marre all your workes as the blinde Carpenter doth Thus farre I haue proued for Phisiologia to be one part of Chyrurgerie or of the Art of curing as we may tearme it and I thinke there is no man that will count him to be a right Chyrurgion that lacketh this part of the Arte or that is not verie expert in the same And for the further knowledge héereof there be certaine bookes appointed of Galen and other auncient writers that you may reade concerning the same part as hereafter followeth Libro Hippocrates de Morbis libro Epedimsorum Hippocrates Galen de locis affectis Galen de Morbis Symptomatis de 4. temporibus morborum Galen de differentijs morborum causis Smptomatis Galen de inequali intemperie Galen de arte Medica Galen de tumoribus praeter naturam Hippocrates de Vulneribus vlceribus Fistulis fracturis immorodibus c.
