A03917	Of the vvood called guaiacum that healeth the Frenche pockes, and also healeth the goute in the feete, the stoone, the palsey, lepree, dropsy, fallynge euyll, and other dyseases.; De guaiaci medicina. English	Hutten, Ulrich von, 1488-1523.; Paynell, Thomas.	1536 (1536)	STC 14025; ESTC S104331	66,421	166

the hurtful humours that are norysshmentes of this disease from some in theyr vrine and sweatynges and from other somme in their sieges And whan of this disease a man begynneth to waxe whole than the fyrst operation of Guaiacum is to make a man to sweate and secondly by the passages of the vrine it purgeth by which menes it fetcheth out voydeth marueylous foule fylthynes And than the handes and feete waxe meruaylous colde in so moche that they seme to haue no heate in them at all Wherof physitions saye this is the cause that than this medicine draweth the heate from the vtter partes to the inner the whiche inward parties after they be warmed and made hotte than the heate spredeth it selfe in to the outwarde parties For this without any doubt is proued that theyr lymmes that be heled with Guaiacum be moste hotte And .vi. or vii wynters nexte folowynge my legges and fete wolde be so colde that I coude neuer gette them warme inoughe thoughe I wrapped them in neuer soo many clothes nowe they waxe so warme that with a very thyn hose or suche lyke garment I put a way the colde These thynges thus vnderstand and knowen we muste comme to this poynte that is to knowe the operation of Guaiacum and agaynste what sycknesses it helpeth Â¶ What power Guaiacum is of and what sycknesses it helpeth Cap. xxiiii THe mooste principall and the chieffest effect of Guaiacum is to hele the frenche pockes cleane pluckyng them vppe by the rootes but specially whan a man hath ben diseased with them of alonge tyme. For I haue sene them that many a day laye soore peyned with the pockes sooner and better restored vnto theyr helth than they on whom the scabbes beganne newly to appere Not that on those newelye diseased any thynge shoulde be lefte vnhealed but that the curynge goothe forwarde more hardely and the disease stycketh faster and is more greuousely plucked out For Guaiacum doth resolue distroy meruailously swellinges getherynges to gether of yll matters hardnesses bumpes and knobbes Fluxions or runnynges it vtterly taketh awaye eyther consuminge or tournynge the same an other waye It causeth the soores to impostume withoute any maner of grefe And if any thynge lye hydde within it rooteth it oute And soo of some as hit dydde to me hit maketh the bones bare of some it shewethe the synowes and breaketh the veynes or eateth moste depelye in and it healeth these partyes that be infected with this disease and with suche stynche and fylthinesse that the sauoure canne not be abyden And therfore the phisitions saye that the vertue of this medicine is to heate to drye and to amende the fautes ol the bloude and of the lyuer but it worketh all these thynges with suche a temperaunce that indifferently whether the cause be hotte or colde it easethe the pacientes Wherfore with the drynes therof it restreyneth the flyde destroyenge the hurtfull humours that flowe oute orelles plucketh vp by the rootes the cause of theyr begynnynge and restorethe agayne the good disposition of the body It dothe extenuate fleme and the poores or passages of the vryne that chaunce manye tymes by perunctions to be shutte and also other in this disease hit openethe ye and prouoketh compelleth the vryne to make and haue way For the whiche skylle some thynke it helpeth them that haue the stone and that it compelleth the stones to issue out of the bladder I haue experyence that hit greately mynisheth blacke coler And therfore it maketh a man more gladsome and quencheth anger Vndoubtedly hit hathe a a greater vertue agaynst melancolye And hit taketh away runnynges and droppynges and it lyghtneth his heuynes by heatynge as it may be thought the brayne It is sayde that hit amendeth soores whiche were before yll healed howe soo euer they come and cuttethe agayne the scarres It amendeth the leannes whiche hath longe contynued in the body And therfore whan this cure is done meÌ„ waxe very fat al their lyfe after They saye it hath a meruaylous vertue ageynst the stynkyng of the mouth doth amende the griefe of the brethe whiche also cometh through the faute of anoyntynge It helpeth the inwarde parties and specially the stomacke the which it holle reneweth and maketh the brokynge as good as euer it was before His effect is excelleÌ„t for the membres that be fallen awaye and diminished it increaseth theym and fyllethe them vp it stretcheth forth the sinowes that are shroâ—ke and those that be lose it fastneth and maketh stronge It is also proued that suche parties as throughe this disease be made deed and without felyng are agayne quickened and brought to theyr olde felyng and lustynesse I sayde before that as touchynge the bealy it varyed For some it dyd bynde and some it made laxe tyl they were wery And agayne somme it dyd bynde in the begynnynge and afterwarde hit losed theym and made them lanke belyed And that the verye shauynges broken as smalle as coude be to the mountenaunce of halfe an vnce was gyuen in drynke to prouoke a siege I haue also sayde that the measure therof is not gyuen after the proportion of his strength that receyueth it For hit maketh not one weaker whan it is mynistred And now this one thyng I affirme that if it be .iiii. tymes sodden yet is not all the vertue gone out Wherin I do not beleue other men but I my selfe haue proued it Howe be it I deny not but the fyrst broth is moch stronger Somme there are that stedfastly beleue that it is very good for fistules and cankers and for the parties that be eaten with cankers Certayne it is it helpeth them that fetche theyr wynde with peyne and can not breth if that faulte come throughe this sickenes or throughe anoyntyng Â¶ And for as moche as I haue shewed before what euyls come with this sickenes it were but labour in vayne to repete them whiche all it taketh awaye distroyeth and vanquyssheth as I before tolde and that if they be olde very lyghtly And in lyke maner it helpeth the gowte For I my selfe haue sene two restored to helth which were â—ore vexed in their fete but yet the physytions saye that it helpeth onely those that haue gotten the gowte through colde whiche thynge I leue to them to complayne of It is also an helthfull remedy for the palsey and especially whan it is new and lately begonne For than it quencheth and dryueth it away whiche thynge I doo wryte vppon the reporte of faythfulle and sadde men that haue knowlege therof For as for me I dyd neuer hytherto se any that was so delyuered Â¶ Ricius tolde of a leper the which though he were not cleane delyuered by this medicine yet was he made moch better and cleaner and suche a man as men myght suffer his company so that Ricius iudgeth that this medicine is able to hyde and stoppe leprosie though it can not take it clene away But if this cure

the soule as wytnessethe Timotheus whiche beyng on a seson with Plato at supper hauynge before hym such meate as he was wonte to haue tourned towarde his frendes and sayd They that Plato receyueth to super shal be wel at ease long after meanynge that after moche eatynge of dyuers and aboundant costly dysshes deynteously dressed there folowed euyll and rawe digestion and greatte grefe of the stomake Wherfore afterwarde whan it chanced him to mete with Plato he sayde vnto hym Ye Plato do ete this day rather for to morowe than for the tyme present Â¶ And in Lucian Gallus the cocke Pithagory iugeth it a great benefit of god giuen to Micyllus bycause he coude alway with hunger auoyd al feuers And for that cause was without such dysease Nowe what shal we saye to that whiche as sayncte Hierome wrytethe that certayne dyseased with the ioint ache and the goute after theyr goodes were gone and were from them and were broughte to poore fare and symple meate they dydde recouer theyr helthe For they sayth saynt Hierome toke no thought nor care for theyr houshold and the habuÌ„dance of meate and drynke which do breke both the body and the soule And anone after he sayth There is nothynge that dullethe a mannes mynde so moche as a ful bealy rysynge and tournynge hyther and thyther blowynge out wynde with balkynge fysting and fartynge Â¶ This story may be a lernynge vnto many men whiche is redde of a certayne great belyed and fatte abbot As he was caryed vnto certayne bathes it fortuned hym to mete with a gentylman who asked him whither he was goynge the abbotte made him answere and sayd that he must go vnto the bathes Why quod the gentylman are ye sicke Nay quod the abbot I am not sicke but I haue no appetite vnto my meate I go therfore now vnto the bathes to get againe myne appetite whiche I dydde of late lose for they are holsom therfore Veryly quod the gentylman In this thynge I can be a better phisition vnto you And toke the abbotte with hym and put hym into a depe and daâ—ke dongeon where he fedde hym certayne dayes hungerly and than at laste he asked hym whether he had an appetite to hie meate Ye mary quod the abbotte I sayth quod the gentylman than is it reson that thou gyne me a rewarde for my medicine and made hym pay two hundred crownes and sente hym awaye in good helthe with suche an appetite that he coude haue eaten bothe beanes and lekes where as before he refused all maner meate were it neuer soo deyntie and so was he well ordered seynge he soughte not meate with hunger but hunger with meate But peraduenture we haue spoken more than ynoughe of this thynge therfore let vs go vnto other matters But first I must tell you to make an ende of this chapiter that Guaiacum requyrethe not a bealy that is replenysshed with varyetie of meates or troubled with wynde in the inwarde partes but purified and clensed from al rawnes and grosnes of humours Â¶ Howe hunger may easely be suffred Cap. xviii ANd this scarsenes of meate canne not only be borne but also mâ—ye easely be borne and that throughe the vertue of Guaiacum whiche after that the body is ones brought downe doth both preserue the life and also causeth that the fycke shall not nede to eate any thynge at all Therfore dydde I not without a cause gyue warnynge that the sycke shuld absteyne from meate as moche as may be And if he way feble or faint he maye not be holpen with meate but with the swete sauours which I speke of as moche as is possible put to his mouthe and specially with hote breadde But if any fele hym selfe to be wasted and redy to slyde awaye throughe weakenes Whiche thynge howe it shulde chaunce in any manne I can not telle for in me there happened no suche thyng at all that I neded any maner helpe Than I wolde counsayle hym to vse these thynges which Plinie thynketh easeth hunger and quenchethe thyrste whan they be very lyttell tasted of that is butter and lykeresse reclisse likoresse Drels in this thing we muste folowe Celsus which sayth thus This one thynge muste alwayes be obserued that the phisition be often tymes caused ã€ˆâ—Šã€‰ sytte by the pacient to consyder what strength he is of and to cause hym as longe as he hath any strength to wrastle and fight with hunger And if he begynne to doubt of his weakenes to helpe hym with meate Excepte any had leuer folowe that whiche Gellsius sayth that Erastrat dydde write that the Scythians whan they for somme cause muste nedes suffer hunger do thruste together theyr bely and bind it round about very straitly with brode swadlynge bondes thynkyng that by suche pressynge to gether of theyr bealy hunger may be putte away or the easelyer borne For seing as he saith hunger commeth of emptines and is caused of the voydnes and holownesse of the intrayles and of the bealy than whanne the bealy is gyrded in harde so that the emptines is filled and the holownes ioyned there can be no hunger where as these thynges be not and vtterlye forbearynge of meate may lightly be born But why say I vitterly for bearyng of meate whiche can not be in this cure I may well calle it hunger what so euer it be that any abydeth For it maye be suffred well aud easely thoughe a man take nothynge in the worlde to helpe it But vnto these deynteous sycke persones what thynge can be lyght whiche can not onely suffer no hunger but also not to haue a stomake vnto meate they thynke it intollerable For the whiche if at any tyme they be sycke we mought praye god that they neuer recouer consyderynge they esteme hit a greatte grefe to bye helth with a lyttel sufferynge Â¶ Of these maner persons if I speke some what largely I do it after myn accustomed maner specially whan I perceyue many of my countrey men the Almaynes to erâ—e in this behalfe Â¶ The prayse of temperaunce in spite of ryotte Cap. xix BVt I beseche almyghty god that this nation maye ones knowe it selfe Whiche thing I do not desyre so moch bycause it is vncomely that the people that rulethe all the worlde shoulde so lyue as for that that suche intemperancie and ryotte is an occasion to vs of great euyls and also to be greatly dispised If other people shoulde eate and drynge as moche as they coud they thinke they shulde passe the lawe of nature but whan we cromme in so moche that we can not beare it we loke after laude and prayse What meneth these strynes and contentions of our valyant drynkâ—rs Whanne he that drynketh is receyued with triumphe whan it is glorye to ouercome in drynkynge and no shame to be dronke and cast it vp agayn O countâ—ry O empire As for the Polonians or if there be any other that passeth vs in dronkennes I regard them not but this

noted howe be it al doth nowe knowe it that this one thynge is hit that maketh this sycknes to be verye greuous bycause there is great difficultie in dyetynge For whan this disease is ouercome it is not one onely that must be obserued in the order of our lyuynge but many thynges and dyuerse must be rekened vppon In so moche as what so euer thynges there be whether they be with or agaynst all the diseases whiche I sayde before folowed this syckenes he that is recouered must set them before hym endeuorynge him selfe with al diligence to obteyne them that make with hym and to anoyde them that be ageynst him Wherfore he must be alwayes very careful in his lyuyng that al thyng maye be done ordinatly Not with standynge if this medicine haue saued any there is for theym great comforte bycause they that are expert therof plainly thynke that after the pacientes haue ones receyued theyr helth the time of obseruation which foloweth this cure be past nothinge that is not contrary to theyr olde maner of lyuyng can putte them in any daunger soo that they vsed not before to lyue without order vtterly For that same order shal serue hym that is thus restored as shall serue theym that neuer had the sycknes Wherfore they thinke it not so moche to be regarded what a man eateth as howe moche he eateth And therfore no kynde of meate to be forborne no choise of meate to be hadde concernynge the qualitie of fedynge nothynge to be cared fore but that whiche is knowen to apperteygne to the commen conseruation of helthe and to the vniuersall auoydynge of all maladies and diseases Wherin that that Celsus teacheth perchance shall not be the leest whiche is that euerye man take hede leste whyle his bodye is in prosperitie the aydes and succour ageynst aduersite be consumed and wasted Â¶ Helth is preserued as the same Celsus sayth by dyet by medicines by oyntynges by frictions and rubbynges by baynes by exercyse by caryage aboute by clere and pleasant readynge whiche thynges howe they ought to be considered fully and holle I leaue you to aske of hym Here wylle I breuely touche a fewe thynges and suche as apperteyne to dyete This I thynke they muste fede pleasauntely and moderately and take suche meates and drynkes as be of lyghtest dygestion For as Poule saythe The chiefest poynt of education is that the meate be suche as wyll lyhgtly dygeste and nourysshe well not slowe in digestynge nor clammye nor plentuous in superfluities and the drynke to be smalle wyne whyte pure and a lyttell delayde with water And Celsus saythe Se your meate be not fatty clammy nor wyndy And by his couÌ„sell ye muste absteyne in all suche dyseases from all maner salte meates sharpe sowre and bytter For the same reason I thynke wherof I made mention before And Paule saythe In eatynge the greatteste faute is satietie and fulnes For all thoughe the bely digeste well yet the veynes to moche replenysshed labour soore they swelle they breake they be stopped and fylled with wynde and playne it is that the worst dyseases of all comme of sacieâ—ie He thynketh this onely to be auoyded that no man fylle him selfe And I iudge the same but not only for I wolde more ouer nothynge to be dressed deintuously nothynge to be â—auced curiously and that many dysshes of dyuerse kyndes be not sette before vs nother wyll as these ryche menne vse sixe or .vii. or sometyme .x. messes at one soupper to be broughte in For a manne wolde not beleue howe moche these thynges hurte not onely the stomacke but also the holle digestion And therfore I wil repete again this thing whiche is spoken of the same authore Varietie of meates is greattely to be auoyded specially whan contrarye operations and vertues be in them For whan they be soo thruste in they resist digestion and the same thinketh Galene and Auicene and as many as be of pure iudgement in phisicke Â¶ Cato as Tully wryteth commandeth so moche meate and drynke to be receyued as may refresshe the strength and power of the body and not oppresse it Wherfore by the counsell of Xenophon we muste make for the most parte a small dyner that there may be a place for the supper Â¶ Playnly this disease is of that sorte that Galenus thynketh to come of fulnes whiche thynge is thus to be vnderstande not that I thynke all that lyueth in surfetynge streight waye to be cast into the french pockes all thoughe suche shall not escape dyseases no not most greuous but if any haue ben vexed before with them and than healed eate and drynke intemperately he must nedes fal agayne into theym And therfore the meate that is receyued let it nother be dyuerse nor moche that the stomake be not loded and dygestion letted And agayne let it be as I monysshed easye in dygestynge Plinie sayth all maner sharpe meates all that is to moche and all that is hastely receyued be harde in workynge and harder in somer than in wynter and harder in age than in youthe Â¶ It is wryten in Tully he that medleth not with exquysite meates looded tables and often cuppes shal not be combred with dronkennes rawnes of stomacke or dreames But for as moch as whan this cure is done we muste prouyde howe the bodye that hath hytherto benne emptyed and made leane may be brought ageyn vnto his olde state therfore peraduenture those meates muste be vsed that increace and fyll the body not with noyfull humours but suche as Celsus reherseth in the .iii. chapter of the fyrste boke Â¶ Plinie also sayth The bodies growe and increace with sweate and fatte meates and with drynke they diminisshe and go downe with drye leane and colde meates thurst But this muste be wysely vnderstande for those thynges whiche I haue often before monysshed But seinge Galenus warnethe vs in all thynges to take hede to the bealy For what so euer sayth he is corrupted in that it is a cause of rot vnto al the body and so of diseases I thynke it best to take those drynkes and meates as Celsus teachethe which do both noryshe make the bely soft Â¶ But if any through the dyuelles prouocation fyll hym selfe and lode his stomake with meate more than it is able to beare if he lyste to seke helpe by slepe let him here Plinie saying To dygest in slepe it maketh more for the corpulentes than the strengthe of the body And therfore the phisytions wolde haue the great fat wrastlers to make theyr digestion by walkynge But if he had leauer ease hym selfe by vomyt as many do counsell and Paule specially teacheth for throughe vomytes many euyls oftentymes haue ben stopped and withstande lette him rede his doctrine shewynge howe one maye lyghtly vomyt And if nother of these be regarded or to late proued than peraduenture he muste go to phisike whervnto if the sycke be compelled I can gyue hym none other commaundement but
