COnsydering that thys treatise is very needfull and necessarye agaynst the sicknesse of the pestilence and for a common wealth health of the Queenes liege people I Thomas Moulton doctour of Diuinitie of the order of the Frere Preachers the which for to gather moueth me for diuers causes the one is prayers of myne owne bretheren Another is cause of prayers of many worthy Gentles And another is compassyon that I haue of the poore people that was is destroyed euery day therby for defaute of helpe And the fourth cause that mooueth the most of all pure conscience for euery christen man womā is bound by the lawe of conscience and they know their euen christen in great perril or that is lykely to fal to great mischiefe to helpe them if he maye by his wit wyth his trauayle and with hys goods And these foure causes mooued me to compounde and to gather this treatise and to set it in printe so in english that euery man both learned and lewde riche and poore maye the better vnderstand it and do therafter And so euery man woman and chylde to be their own Phisytion in time of neede agaynst the vengeance and corruption of the pestilence that now is reigning with other diseases many mo and this treatise for the pestilence is deuyded and parted in .iii. partes and consequently insueth the seuen dayes with the Planets with the natures and expositions of the xii signes deuyded by the .xii. months of the yeare with the remedyes for many dyuers other diseases that hurteth and greeueth the body of man And the fyrst parte of this booke telleth dyuers causes how the pestilence may be gendred The seconde part telleth how man woman and childe shall preserue and keepe themselues from the pestilence if so the man woman or chylde be cutable that falleth therein The thyrd parte telleth the remedye helpe and medicine agaynst the pestilence In the fyrst part I say of this treatyse as I tolde be shewed dyuers causes which may be the grounde of this Pestilence that nowe reigneth I fynde by the treatinge of fower Doctoures the fower Pillers that vpholdeth holy church that is to saye S. Austē S. Ierom S. Gregory S. Ambrose where they speke of this matter they say that syn that raygneth among the people and namely that sinne that reigneth among head men the gouernours of the church and of the law is cause of the Pestylence Vengeaunce taken for synne Hereof I fynde ensample and Fygure in holy Wryt in the seconde booke of Kinges in the .xxiii. Chapyter There sheweth holye Writ openlye that for the sinne of King Dauid God sent vnto him his Prophet and gaue him choyse of thre things whether that he had leuer that GOD should sende vpon him for his sinne and of his people hunger seuen yere or else he had leauer that hee shoulde sende vpon him pursute of enemies and to be ouercome of them thre moneths or yet that he had leuer that he should sende vpon him Pestilence three days three nights And than King Dauid truly chose Pestylence so that from that tyme that he had chosen thus pestilēce or it was none of the day there was dead xxvii M. of his people And then King Dauid saw that vengeaunce was taken for his sinne by pestylence mourningly with great sorrow great compassyon of heart he cryed God almyghtye mercye and when he had done anon the pestylence seaced And for synne that raigned in the people hydyous pestilence hath bene taken as was shewed on Ierusalē as telleth Vincent in speculo Historiali Eusebius telleth the same Therefore euery man in what degree or what state he be put away sinne thorough hartily sorrow and very contricion asking of good mekely mercy and forgiuenes entyrely and amending their lyfe then he putteth away the cause of pestilence that in case hys vengeance taken for sinne and sothlye sauing we ought not to deeme lightly of Gods priuities this maye be wel one cause of that hydeous pestilence that now is reigning ¶ And they say generally in thys realme and truth it is that many tokens are shewed that men likely deme that this sinne is cause in part of this pestilence as the corrupt ayre and the venime thereof the whyche was caused by a cōiunction of Saturn and Iouis the which Planets their working within fewe yeares and the malyce of thy complection and of other sinne this lefte in the ayre and beneath the which malice and venime hath his respecte and his influence more in the complection of man then of beast in as much as the working of y e cōiunction and of other sinne was more principally in the sin of mankynd then in the sin of another maner of beast But the working of other coniunctions dyuers are before hand had their working in the signes of other beastes thir influence in y e cōplections of thē And therefore the malice of the coniunctions was cause whye that the morel fell of such beast more then of other that time but this coniunction aforesayd the which was wrought more principally in the sinne of mankynd more then of any other whose venime and malice yet reigning is the cause of the corruptiō of the ayre the which ayr corrupt is cause of the Pestilence that now is reigning but neuerthelesse if so that it bee impossyble by all Phylosophers that the Elemente of the Ayre should in hys owne kynde and in his owne substaunce be corrupt or else infecte sythen it is symple and cleane is hys substance wrought without any venome or corruption Neuertheles yet by the way of vaporous fumosytyes and humors the which that are corrupt and drawen from the earth beneath by vertue at tractife of the bodies that bene aboue minged with the ayre so by accidentall cause
is the ayre corrupt and in part cause of this pestilēce But than thou mayst meue against me say that if so were that the venemous ayre and the corruption thereof should be cause of pestilence or else man woman and child shuld be infect therby that it semeth euery man woman and child should be infect corrupt by the pestilence In the countrey there y ● ayre corrupt is reigning sythen the ayre in such a place is cōmon to al manner of men To this answered Auicen in his Canon in the part there he treateth De cura februm that if all the pestilence ayre be reygning in a countrey if it be common to all the inhabitantes of that countrey yet there shall none be infect therewith but they that be repleat and ful of corrupt humours the which corrupte humoures haue their respect and acording to receiue the corruption and the venime of the ayre else in what countrey or Cittye that such ayre were corrupt or venomed in al manner of men that receiueth that ayre in the same countrey or in the same cittye should be venomed and dead therby ye see wel and know well that the Element of the fyre hath no predomination nor will not bren but matter that is combustible and according to receiue fyre On the same wyse the Elemente of the ayre that is pestilence corrupt in fecteth neyther man woman nor chylde but such as haue such venomyd corupt humours within them selfe disposed to the same the Pestylence thereof in such tyme that such pestilence ayre raignech in After dyuersity of venemous humours and corruption in men reigning And through the working of that venemous pestilence ayre or diuers sicknes and perillous gendred in man woman and chylde And this alteracion in kynd is wrought by the malice influence of the coniuction aforesayd the which malice of coniunctiō is likewise to be cause of many other wonderfull alteracions betwixt King and King Lord and Lorde man and man woman and woman father sonne brother and brother and many other Also it is lykely to bee cause of deposing of Lordes out of Lorshippes and inhaunsing and inhighing of knaues And Emperoures of mighty men spoyling and destroying of Kyngdoms and Lordships And also it is lyke to be cause of great fyres great mists and great water by land And cause of many great perils by y e sea Also it is lykely to be cause of many wonderful tokenings of great winds many other wonderful things Also destroying of many citties and principally of the Sarisins sect and of many other wonderfull sicknesse Also the Sismy of holye Churche is lykely to cease and dyuers states to ende and therwith many things is lykely to fall by the iudgement of Astronomy y e which I will not wryte for dyuers causes But knowe it well all manner of menne that these thinges I rehearse not as thinges told by prophesy but as conclusions following and showing by Astronomy and also by Astrology for as declareth Ipocras in his Booke that he made De Epidimia there shall neuer Phisytion be true in working ne sure Practisor of Phisicke but he work and practise by rules of Astronomy for Ipocras sayeth that it is impossible y t a man shall cure a sicknesse but if he know the cause of hys sicknesse there is some sycknesse that is caused by mouing and working of the bodyes aboue the which a man may not know without Astronomy and Astrology than it seemeth well that it is impossible to a man to cure sicknesse generally but he can of Astromye and of Astrology For as I fynde in Lybro Interprecationem all the fower Elements and al other things beneath that bene compound of them are gendred by the course of the planets aboue and all the lyuely bodyes beneath haue in parte there being their heale the sicknesse by the mouing of the bodyes aboue ¶ Thus endeth the fyrst part of this Pestilence Treatise ¶ Here followeth the seconde parte that sheweth how man shuld preserue and keep him from the Pestylence Cap. ij THe second parte of this Treatyse is howe thou shalte gouerne and preserue thy selfe from the mallice of the Pestilence ayre and from the venime corruption that is gendred thereby the which partye is principall cause of this pestilence that now is reigning The fyrst and the principall preseruation there agaynst is this To gouerne thee wel and wiselye and for to flie al that may gender anye Feuer or Ague Fyrst thou needeth to keepe thee seuerally from all manner of excesse and outrage of meate and drinke and namely from all manner of Feuores meates as Gose Doue Byrds Malards Venison Lampray Scate and Eeles And also other Feuores meats eate no great meate no Onyons nor leekes nor garlike nor no fruite For all these gathereth and ingendreth vnkyndlye heates and so bringeth a man to an ague he be in any wyse of nigh disposytion thereto and vse no Bathes nor Stues sweat not to much for all openeth the pores of a mans bodye and maketh the venomous ayre to enter and for to infect the blood the spiritual members of man for to destroy al lyuely spirits in man Also keepe thee from haunting of lechery for that both openeth the pores and destroyeth the kynde naturall and also enfeebleth the spirituall members and the liuely spyrytes of man Also in the tyme of pestilence in no wyse suffer to greate thirst and if thou thirst looke thou drink but mesurably and not but for to slaken thy thirst and namely such drinkes as wil abate thy heate as is Tisan water mingled with vyneger or water of Borage water of let use water of Roses water of Scabious water of Turmentill water of Diten mingled in euen portions or else by them selfe For these drinkes if the Pestylence reigne in the heate of the sommer bene profytable and soueraynly to them that bene colorike of complection for they be hoater and dryer thē other also to slepe on afternones and when thou shalt go to bed shut thy dores and thy wyndowes close and in an earthen pan full of Charcole fyre cast this powder made of these things of Lorell leaues dryed Rosemary and dried Frankensence of ech of them a like much cast half a sponeful of this powred in the fyre Also vse fyre in thy chamber all the tymes of the day and of the night of these things as fyre of Ienoper and if y u may not get this Ienoper make the fyre of cleane dry Ashe wood and vse to cast in the fyre alwaye Frankensēce Storax Calamint Lapdanum and the fumosities of these and the smoke if the aire be corrupt of the vertue actractiue of y e liuely spirites and the spiritual members outward by the vaynes of the hearte and so inuenomes it these hasteth a man to his death But if the nature of the Pestilence be gendred betwixte the thigh and the body it is a tokening that it commeth
