way_n but_o that_o i_o may_v render_v what_o i_o have_v to_o say_v upon_o it_o as_o perspicuous_a and_o intelligible_a as_o i_o can_v i_o think_v it_o very_o convenient_a we_o shall_v take_v a_o special_a notice_n of_o the_o vessel_n that_o come_v into_o the_o tooth_n and_o of_o their_o respective_a function_n the_o first_o and_o chief_a whereof_o be_v a_o artery_n who_o office_n be_v to_o bring_v direct_o from_o the_o heart_n that_o hot_a and_o spirituous_a blood_n out_o of_o which_o although_o it_o be_v not_o the_o general_a opinion_n the_o tooth_n be_v at_o first_o make_v as_o well_o as_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o whole_a body_n and_o ever_o after_o preserve_v and_o repair_v by_o the_o supply_n of_o nourishment_n and_o vital_a principle_n it_o afford_v continual_o to_o this_o effect_n the_o whole_a artery_n divide_v itself_o into_o a_o infinity_n of_o small_a branch_n which_o be_v disseminated_a throughout_o the_o whole_a substance_n of_o the_o tooth_n distribute_v to_o each_o part_n as_o much_o of_o their_o blood_n as_o be_v necessary_a to_o make_v up_o the_o incessant_a loss_n they_o be_v subject_a to_o and_o the_o rest_n be_v return_v through_o innumerable_a hair-like_a vein_n into_o the_o great_a one_o and_o thence_o to_o the_o heart_n again_o but_o in_o two_o different_a manner_n for_o the_o superfluous_a part_n of_o that_o portion_n of_o the_o blood_n that_o be_v carry_v by_o the_o capillary_a artery_n to_o that_o part_n of_o the_o tooth_n stand_v above_o the_o gum_n be_v send_v back_o again_o through_o some_o capillary_a vein_n towards_o the_o middle_n of_o the_o tooth_n where_o unite_n together_o they_o make_v but_o a_o single_a channel_n and_o this_o be_v it_o we_o common_o call_v the_o vein_n of_o the_o tooth_n which_o we_o shall_v here_o take_v for_o its_o second_o vessel_n but_o the_o remainder_n of_o the_o blood_n that_o go_v to_o the_o relief_n of_o that_o part_n of_o the_o tooth_n that_o be_v within_o the_o gum_n pass_v

pain_n be_v at_o any_o time_n occasion_v in_o any_o of_o those_o part_n either_o by_o bruise_n excessive_a heat_n or_o cold_a etc._n etc._n come_v to_o be_v soon_o after_o communicate_v to_o the_o tooth_n the_o three_o and_o last_o vessel_n of_o the_o tooth_n be_v a_o nerve_n one_o of_o the_o extremity_n whereof_o be_v expanded_a through_o the_o membrane_n that_o invest_v the_o cavity_n of_o

some_o as_o the_o tooth_n the_o faculty_n of_o motion_n be_v not_o exercise_v from_o this_o consideration_n of_o the_o vessel_n of_o the_o tooth_n we_o may_v gather_v the_o follow_a reason_n of_o its_o dolour_n as_o first_o that_o if_o either_o through_o the_o too_o great_a quantity_n or_o ebulition_n of_o the_o blood_n the_o artery_n be_v so_o dilate_a and_o swell_v that_o it_o fill_v up_o the_o hole_n at_o the_o end_n of_o the_o stump_n where_o it_o enter_v the_o tooth_n and_o consequent_o so_o compress_n the_o vein_n go_v out_o the_o same_o way_n that_o the_o circulation_n of_o the_o blood_n be_v thereby_o hinder_v the_o continual_a flow_v in_o of_o the_o blood_n will_v extreme_o puff_v up_o and_o distend_v the_o membrane_n that_o contain_v the_o vessel_n and_o consequent_o cause_v a_o great_a pain_n in_o the_o tooth_n which_o will_v last_v till_o either_o the_o preternatural_a state_n of_o the_o blood_n be_v change_v or_o that_o the_o arteriol_n which_o we_o have_v say_v to_o pass_v quite_o through_o the_o rooty_a part_n of_o the_o tooth_n be_v so_o stretch_v and_o widen_v that_o by_o they_o the_o blood_n may_v be_v discharge_v into_o the_o gum_n cheek_n and_o lip_n where_o it_o will_v then_o cause_v a_o swell_a great_a or_o lesser_a according_a to_o the_o quantity_n of_o the_o superfluous_a blood_n and_o if_o at_o the_o begin_n of_o this_o disorder_n when_o the_o vein_n be_v first_o impede_v in_o its_o function_n the_o motion_n of_o the_o blood_n be_v so_o rapid_a and_o its_o influx_n into_o the_o tooth_n so_o impetuous_a that_o before_o it_o can_v make_v its_o way_n through_o the_o small_a arterial_a twig_n into_o the_o gum_n it_o do_v extreme_o extend_v the_o coat_n of_o the_o artery_n the_o interstice_n between_o their_o fibre_n will_v thereby_o become_v wide_a enough_o to_o give_v passage_n to_o some_o of_o the_o thin_a part_n of_o the_o blood_n which_o gather_v at_o the_o end_n of_o the_o root_n between_o the_o outside_n of_o the_o artery_n and_o the_o common_a coat_n invest_v all_o the_o vessel_n will_v there_o putrify_v and_o cause_v a_o great_a and_o very_a last_a pain_n in_o the_o tooth_n during_o which_o if_o the_o tooth_n be_v draw_v the_o say_a gather_n will_v appear_v at_o the_o end_n of_o its_o stump_n like_o a_o little_a bladder_n you_o shall_v know_v this_o sort_n of_o toothache_a by_o the_o high_a beat_n of_o your_o pulse_n the_o fullness_n of_o the_o vein_n and_o a_o often_o beat_v in_o the_o affect_a tooth_n with_o a_o continual_a though_o not_o very_o extreme_a pain_n and_o then_o for_o the_o
