in artificiall Memorie thou must diligentlye and circumspectly often pervse the same whiche if at the length thou canst not vnderstande doe not therefore opprobriouslye contemne it but rather aske counsell at some other for Non cuiuis homini contingit adire Corynthum or elles repare to easyer and playner wherof there is in this treatise greate abundaunce to the same effect what soeuer it be for I haue not presumed to lessen myne Authour and therefore reporte me fauourablye In whiche doynge thou shalte styll encorage and prouoke me to further paynes I truste to thy furtheraunce and the glorye of almightye God the Father the Sonne and the Ghost to whome be laude and praise worlde without ende Amen This. xx of Nouember 1562. Lege perlegÃ© Ne quid temerÃ© The Bookes verdicte A Castell stronge I doe present well furnished and sure Munited eke with armoure bent For euer to endure Vhich hitherto longe tyme hath bene In limbo patrum hidd But now at last may here be sene from daungers men to ridd Procuringe them a perfect state And safe security Whereby they may fynde out the gate Of wisedomes lore For why He that hath lost his Memorie By me may it renewe And he that will it amplifie Shall fynde instructions trewe And he that will still kepe the same That it shall not decaye By me must learne the way to frame And my precepes obaye Lo here ye see my full effecte And that I doe entend The secrettes therof to detect That therby wittes may mend Then Iudge me As I am worthie What Memorie is where it florisheth how profitable and necessary it is The first Chapter MEmorie is by the whiche the mynde repeateth things y t are past Or it is a stedfast percesuyng in the mynde of the disposition of thinges and wordes Or as Aristotle supposeth it is an imagination that remaineth of such thinges as the sense had conceyued Also by y t sentence of Plato Memorie is a sense a safetie or safe reteining of things for y t soule obtaineth by the office of the senses whatsoeuer thinges chaunce vnder the sense and therefore it is the beginninge of an opinion But by the mynde it selfe it considereth intellectuall thynges so is it become intelligence Yet y t Memorie being lost it is renued againe by remembraunce for whereas forgetfulnes or the losse of Memorie is double to wit perpetuall and temporall or for a tyme in this verely remembraunce worketh of the which it shalbe spoken hereafter in his place Neither is inuention or imaginatioÌ„ of y t one part of the soule or braine and Memorie of the otheâ—â€¦ but they are in one same subiecte thing and the functions of the same part of the soule and either of them is of y e hole brayne in whose hole body y t soule being y t principal parte of vnderstanding is dispersed yet haue auncient Writers not withoute a cause saide that diuers partes of the head and braine be occupied of these functions of the soule Memorie therefore hath his seate in the hinder part of the head in the thyrde Ventricle whiche is also called Puppis It would be long and altogether superfluous here where I studye breuitie to describe the Anatomie of the whole braine the whiche is to be seene in the bookes of manyÃ© especially of the learned yea and dilligent Andrea Vesalius Yet will I briefely speake somwhat making nerer vnto our matter There be three operations of the soule in the braine fantasie or imagination reasonyng or iudgement and Memorie or remembraunce The two first haue their operation in the two greater Ventricles of the braine and the thyrde is erxercised in thirde and lesser Ventricle In the concauities or holownes of the brayne is frequented a liuelye small pure and moste cleane spirite and suche a one is caried to the Memorie the which surely hath neede of thÃ¨ clearenes and subtilitie of the spirite For if so be that that waye be not opened by the whiche the spirite passeth to the hinder part or Puppis of the braine the man remembreth nothing and contrariwise they that haue a swifte openinge of that waye are wise and answere spedely as are diuers cholericke persons and they that haue that openinge slowe are dull and slack to learne and to aunswere and such are for the most parte flematick or melancholicke vsynge grosse and much meates and drincks Certeinlye there be fewe founde that are indewed with a good witte and an excellent Memorie of Nature for because that witte betokeneth a subtile and softe substaunce of the braine and Memorie a permanent substaunce Also Galenus saith in his .xii. Chapter Artis medicinalis that witte declareth a subtile substaunce of the braine and the dulnes of vnderstandinge a grosse substaunce c. The spirite seruynge for this office doth flee vpwarde from the heart thorough the synowes to the head and is nourished with an outwarde compassing ayre obtayneth a longe continuaunce And to be short al Philosophers do accorde that Memorie is most of strength by the good temperature of the organe or seate in the whiche the soule doth exercise this office And it shalbe a token that they haue a good Memorie whose hinder part of the head is great and longe and they a weake Memorie whose hinder parte of the head is as it were playne and equall with the necke It is also to be knowen that it causeth wisedome by the goodnes of the spirites and those are good spirites whiche be tempered with clearenes mouing and subtilitie Plato in Theaeteto saieth that the soule is not well at ease in a body that is thicke or muddye or that hath the fleshe to softe or harde And vntemperatnesse chaungeth many wayes For sometyme a body shall bringe it oute of the mothers wombe so stronge and violent that not onelye the Memorie but also the reason shalbe hurte in suche sorte y t euen folishnes shall happen therewithall the whiche amongest the other signes that it hath is the cause that the eares are verye great and erected as Aristotle reciteth in hys firste De animalium natura Who so chaunceth to be borne when the Moone doth encounter the Sunne wandering through Aries and Scorpio shall haue his brayne so afflicted that beinge somewhat growen in yeres a melancholicke passion shall beginne to spring Also this vntemperatues of the brayne commeth manye tymes of ill nourishement sometyme of the vnwholsome ayre that is aboute vs For it is an olde sayinge there as the ayre is dryer there also for the most part the wits be sharper and the soule wiser and prompter euen so a thicke grosse element causeth the wittes to be duller Of the same diet is reason as also Galenus saieth in his booke Quod animi mores c. The Memorie also is weakened of chaunce of being striken of sickennes and diuers other lyke accidentes whereof there maye be had manye examples

furnisheth in all affayres for why Lyke as Obliuion is the losse of high renoumed actes And causeth many worthy wightes forgo both fame and factes Lyke as it is an eatyng moth and sore corrupting rust Abasyng things of noble state no better then to dust Lyke as it is a Chaos great confusedly compact Wherin al things both good had haue true proporcion lackt So Memorie doth still preserue eche thing

Memorye to rule a publike weale In things deuyne eke prophane God graunt it neuer fayle Or how can it at any tyme be spared in the fielde That is so requysite at home and strong defending shielde A good wit sone may learne things and vnderstand the same But them still to retayne and keep in such order and frame That nothing be wanting therof when iust occasion shall Procure rehearsall of such

Except a perfect Memorye doe take therof the charge What profits is most worthy thiÌ„ges to see or els to heare If that the same come in at thone and out at thother eare Why then the matter is so

The aduauncement and benefite whereof euery man is bound bothe by nature conscience to study for all meanes possible to the vttermost of his power and for that purpose to distribute accordynge to the greatnes or smalnes of the talent ministred lent vnto him to the end that the same be it neuer so lytle yf it maye in anye wise profite doe not remaine in him as dead and frustrate but rather that it be bestowed forthe to encrease and fructifie Consideryng in deede that as Plato sayeth Non solum nobis sumus ortusque nostri partem patriÌ„a vendicat partem parentes partem amici Accept therefore in good part gentle Reader my labours suche as they be wherein yf thou shalte fynde any thing either not easye to be come by or obscure and darke to thyne vnderstandynge as perchaunce

partium But when Heate flourisheth in the brayne it is easelye knowen by these fignes for suche partes as are about the heade are warmer and redder then those that be farre of you shall perceiue the eyes to be more rolling and the veynes more apparante As sone as they be borne their heares growe fourth and are blacke harde and curled they are contented wyth smalle and shorte sleepes they haue quyckenes of motyons and remembraunce But if the heat doe encrease and become vnnaturall they shalbe very vigilent This ouer much heat doth boile the liuely spirites and consumeth them into smokes and vapoures and burneth y t iuyces which be apte to ingender spirites wherby they be destytute of a good or salfe Memorye But if the two qualities be Ioyned together you shall knowe theyr signes by as greate a proportion as these qualities be great or lytle And the iudgement of the foresaid things shall not be difficulte as if that heat and drynes were without temperature there shalbe a permixtion of y t sence or a frenesie accordinge to the greate or small degrees of the qualities And therfore it is manifest that the Memorie may be kept encreased and erercised by the scyence or practise of Phisicke seing that by sicknes it may be diminished hindered and loste Therfore as concerning y t meanes to cure it firste of all the feedinge or kynde of lyuing must be altered according to the varietie of the causes as we will herafter showe But first it is to be noted that the forgetfulnes which cometh of nature cannot easely be taken awaye nor y t whiche commeth of a hote and dry cause the rest of the bodye remaininge sounde and perfecte This also chauncethe some times that the Memorie maye be diminished or loste by an vnaccustomed waye then it is to be feared of a worse sickenes except it be spedelyremedyed to witte of the Lethargie falling sicknes Apoplexie Palsey and other suche kinde of disseases the which are engendxed of fleame in the brayne for the whiche recourse must be had to the Phisitions Also if the Memorie be perished by extrome age it is not in vaine to be laboured to be gotten againe by remedies but onely muste be contented with a conuenient kind of liuing or feeding and must haue ministred sucking moiste restoratiue meates and linctuaries and suche as maytake away the drynes If the hurting of the Memory come by vehement purgations and other vnmesurable emptines or of drynes it must onely be remedied by good nourishing meates for y t body being strengthened y t forces and powers gotte again the Memorie is restored and fortified Therfore meats being ful of good iuyce do help much which be easelye concocted bigestid in the ventricle the wine must be red ripe alaied with water the exercise must be moderate withoute wearines the head must be lightly rubbed they must slepe long they muste lye softe they must vse bathes of warme water they must avoide sweatinges the head being shauen there must be powred on Epithemata or FomeÌ„tations of the decoction of flowers of Camomill Melilote Linsede hufked Barley Milke newly milked it must be anointed in w t oyle of Lilies or of Almondes oyle of Dialtea in y t French Guimauues with fresh Butter Let them take coÌ„serue of Borage Bewglosse Orenge pilles preserued and suche lyke If the annoiance of y t Memory come of a colde vntemperature of y t braine alone w tout substance let coldnes beset against heat likewise drynes against moistnes but neuertheles moderatly for in heat naturall drynes the proportioÌ„ ought to be most equal to the ende y t nothinge be to muche because that a naturail heat is not a pure heat but coÌ„pounded in y t which there is a proportioÌ„ of most equalitie For all kynde of heate causeth not a good Memory nor al kinde of drynes but y t which is of a temperate proportion and floweth not into an immoderate vntemperatnes which hath y t power to take away y e acte of it owne vertue Therfore it is to be takeÌ„ hedâ— lest the brayne be made to hote or to dry And he that hath a teÌ„perate head let him take hede that he meddle not with any medicines They therefore that haue the Memorie corrupted by vnmeasurable heat drines y t which being ioyned together doe ofteÌ„ cause frenesies dotings must haue Oxirhodinum powred vpon their heades it shalbe easey to heale the rest with suche things as doe coole moisten And if the hurte come of ouer muche heate ioyned with ouer muche drynes the whiche chaunceth comonly tyther because of longe sickenesses or of excessyue labours of the bodye or of fyerce sorowefull and carnest affections of the mynde by the which the forces and powers of nature are greatly opened or weried the liuely spirits dissolued and wasted moistning and meanely warminge medicines hauing strength together shalbe very defencible and necessarie But when the qualities shall doe harme not alone by theÌ„selues but y t there shalbe also great aboundaunce of humours we must beginne w t euacuations pourginges in prouiding before a concoction or digestioÌ„ if nede be The abundance of bloude requireth y t cutting or opening of a vaine which must be done w t the councel of a lerned Phisition let the veyne vp on the shoulder be opened the which is called Cephalica if the head only be burthened if y t whole body be geued the inward or middle veines must be opened If a yelowe or fleamy choler abound by the aduise of the phisitioÌ„ it may be purged with medicines y t driue out choler as with Rubarde Manna Casia iuyes of Roses electuarye of Roses syrupe of Roses resoluatiue or laxatyue Tamerindi or with golden Pittes suche like If it be a blacke choler or melancolye it must likewise be remedied by conuenient aides ministred by experte phisitions as w t the steeping or â—â—â—â—â€¦or of Sene of Epithimum of VeratruÌ„ in them that be stronger Diasene Pilles Indie c. But if the cause be the whiche in a maner chaneeth alwaies colde and moiste these meanes shall serue to cure it first as touchiÌ„g their liuing let theÌ„ abide asmuch as is possible in a light cleare aire not windy for the winds do hurt much And let them auoide to eate any thing that encreaseth fleame as all colde things and likewise vapourous as oynions and aboue al things y t fulnes lothsomenes of meates or rawnes muche drinke let theÌ„ forbeare much eating of fruites meates of hard digesting washing of theÌ„selues with to hote or to colde water to much drinking of water or wine Therfore meates y t haue good nourishment ingender warme liuely bloud are very helping necessary as wethers muttoÌ„ y t floshe of Goates Eapons Fesantes Partriges whose egges are of a singuler power in this behalf pigioÌ„s turtle
