does not only cool and refresh the Spirits and the whole Body but also powerfully strengthens the Action of the Stomach But I pity the young Children most who are so tender and of so delicate a Nature both in their Body and Spirits that every Disorder does wound them to the very Heart Nothing is more grateful and refreshing to them than the pleasant Air It comforts their Spirits and causeth a free Circulation of the Blood and Radical Moisture begets Appetite and makes them grow in Strength But on the contrary hot sulphurous Airs with great Fires and warm Clothing do not only hinder the Circulation of the Blood but suffocate the Spirits and destroy the Appetite causing an unnatural Heat to possess the whole Body whence does proceed various Disorders and Diseases making them to cry and be very froward Also close Bindings and over-warm Clothings and thick hot Airs do oft in weak-spirited Children cause Convulsions Vapours and Fumes to fly into the Head sometimes occasioning Vomiting which People call Windy Diseases Again The Food of most Children of late Years is so enriched with West and East-India Ingredients that is with Sugar and Spices that thereby their Food becomes so hot in operation that it does not only breed too much Nourishment which generates Obstructions and Stoppages but it heats the Body drying up and consuming the Radical Moisture and infecting the Blood with a sharp fretting Humour which in some Complexions and Constitutions causeth Languishing Diseases contracting the Breast and Vessels of the Stomach and hindering the Passages of the Spirits so that the Joynts and Nerves become weak and feeble in others with the help of bad Diet and other Uncleanliness does cause Botches Boils and various sorts of Leprous Diseases Also many that have wherewithal will frequently give their Children Sack strong Drinks and fat Meats as long as they will eat which is abominable and absolutely contrary to the Nature of Children There are a hundred other Disorders and Intemperances that many Mothers and ignorant Nurses affect their Children with which I have no room in this Place to discourse of Therefore I commend unto the Women Milk that is raw only made so hot as the Mothers or Nurses Milk is when the Child sucks it and sometimes Milk and Flower boyled together giving it the Child about the warmness of Breast-milk and indeed neither Children nor others ought to eat any Food hotter Also no Children ought to drink any kind of strong Drink I could commend Water as the most wholesom but it being contrary to our Custom ordinary Beer may do well or rather small Ale If Women did understand but the hundredth part of the Evils and Diseases those indulging and intemperate Ways do bring both to themselves and Children they would quickly be of my mind which I never expect They are too wise A SHORT DISCOURSE OF THE PAIN in the TEETH Shewing from what Cause it does chiefly proceed and also how to prevent it THE terrible Pains and Diseases of the Teeth do chiefly proceed from two Causes The first is ●rom certain filthy phlegmy Matter which the Stomach and Vessels do continually breathe and send forth which does lodge or center in the Mouth especially between the Teeth and on the Gums and some People having fouler Stomachs than others such do breathe forth very sowr stinking phlegmy Matter which does not only increase the Pain but causeth the Teeth to become loose and rotten And for want of continual cleansing and washing those Breathings and this Phlegmy Matter turns to Putrifaction which does eat away the Gums as though Worms had eaten them And this Defect is generally attributed to the Disease called the Scurvey but it is a mistake the Cause is chiefly as is mentioned before from the Stomach or for want of Cleansings 2. This Distemper of the Teeth and Gums does also proceed from the various sorts of Meats and Drinks and more especially from the continual eating of Flesh and fat sweet things compounded of various things of disagreeing Natures which do not only obstruct the Stomach but fur and foul the Mouth part thereof remaining upon the Gums and between the Teeth For all such things do quickly turn to Putrifaction which does by degrees corrupt both the Teeth and Gums Besides our Beds take up near half the time of our Lives which time the Body is not only without motion but the Bed and Coverings do keep it much hotter than the Day-garments especially of those that draw the Curtains of their Windows and Beds so close that the pure Spirits and thin refreshing Vapours of the Air are hindred of having their free egress and regress which does dull and flatten the Action of the Stomach and this is the chief Cause why Suppers lie hard in the Stomach and require more than double the time for perfect Concoction than the same Food does when a Man is up and in the open Air For this Element if it hath its free Influences is sucked in as by Spunges through all the Pores of the Body and does wonderfully refresh comfort open and cleanse all the Parts having power to assist and help Concoction but hot dull thick Airs do destroy the Action of the Stomach and as it were suffocate the pure Spirits drying up and consuming the Radical Moisture Therefore the Night does foul the Mouth more than the Day furring it with a gross slimy Matter especially those that hav● foul Stomachs and are in Years which ought to be well cleansed every Morning 3. Whatsoever are the Disorders in the Body the Mouth does always partake of them besides the Evils that the variety of Food and the improper mixtures of Flesh and Fish and many other things which do foul and hurt both the Teeth and Gums When any Person is disordered with inward Diseases does not the Mouth quickly complain of the Evils thereof This very few do consider in time 4. It is to be noted That most People do attribute the Diseases of the Teeth to Colds and Rheums and other outward Accidents It is true outward Accidents will further this Disease but then there must be Matter before-hand otherwise outward Colds can have no power to cause this Pain The same is to be understood in all Stoppages of the Breast and other Obstructions as Coughs and the like For if any Part be obstructed or there be Matter for Distemper then on every small occasion of outward Colds or the like Accidents Nature complains If your Teeth and Gums be sound and free from this Matter take what Colds you will and your Teeth will never complain as daily Experience doth shew For all outward Colds and other Accidents of the like nature have no power to seise any part of the Body except first there be some inward Defect or Infirmity Suppose the Teeth be defective then the Disease falls on that Part or if it be the Head Eyes Breast Back or any other Part or Member of the Body that is
