chief_a and_o only_a quality_n whereof_o all_o thing_n that_o be_v both_o in_o the_o sea_n and_o earth_n be_v make_v as_o man_n and_o beast_n fish_n and_o fowl_n tree_n herb_n stone_n and_o metal_n these_o four_o quality_n be_v heat_n cold_a moistness_n and_o dryness_n and_o these_o four_o continue_v due_o temper_v as_o nature_n order_v they_o first_o in_o every_o perfect_a body_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o continual_a health_n but_o if_o they_o be_v alter_v wrong_o then_o do_v they_o cause_v disease_n diverse_o according_a to_o the_o diversity_n of_o the_o alteration_n and_o as_o they_o do_v cause_n disease_n so_o they_o change_v the_o colour_n substance_n and_o other_o part_n of_o the_o urine_n whereby_o we_o may_v conjecture_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o disease_n and_o so_o consequent_o the_o disease_n itself_o though_o sometime_o it_o declare_v the_o disease_n itself_o and_o not_o the_o cause_n thereof_o but_o now_o to_o come_v to_o the_o matter_n meet_a for_o this_o time_n quality_n passive_n and_o active_a quality_n you_o shall_v mark_v that_o two_o of_o these_o four_o quality_n be_v name_v passive_a and_o they_o cause_v but_o small_a alteration_n in_o comparison_n the_o other_o two_o be_v call_v active_a and_o they_o cause_v great_a alteration_n the_o active_a quality_n be_v heat_n and_o cold_a and_o the_o passive_a quality_n be_v dryness_n and_o moistness_n when_o moistness_n therefore_o exceed_v alone_a moistness_n moistness_n it_o dull_v the_o natural_a colour_n of_o urine_n thick_v and_o engross_v the_o substance_n and_o increase_v the_o quantity_n and_o as_o the_o over-part_n of_o it_o above_o wax_v rough_a and_o trouble_a so_o the_o ground_n increase_v and_o continue_v raw_a and_o unconcoct_v but_o dryness_n do_v diminish_v the_o quantity_n of_o urine_n dryness_n dryness_n and_o also_o the_o content_n it_o make_v it_o thin_a in_o substance_n clear_a and_o bright_a and_o cause_v mean_a colour_n and_o the_o ground_n appear_v grosser_n likewise_o heat_n heat_n heat_n if_o it_o exceed_v measure_n but_o little_a it_o make_v pale_a and_o light_a saffron_n colour_n in_o the_o urine_n but_o if_o heat_n exceed_v great_o it_o cause_v golden_a and_o saffron_a colour_n with_o mean_a substance_n and_o a_o little_a brightness_n the_o ground_n be_v mean_a in_o respect_n to_o the_o quantity_n of_o urine_n but_o it_o decline_v from_o the_o due_a whiteness_n towards_o saffron_a colour_n but_o cold_a on_o the_o other_o side_n make_v urine_n turn_v to_o white_a colour_n cold._n cold._n and_o change_v the_o substance_n from_o a_o mean_v and_o if_o the_o cold_a increase_n the_o urine_n will_v alter_v from_o mean_a substance_n and_o therefore_o consequent_o will_v be_v either_o thin_a or_o gross_a if_o it_o be_v thin_a or_o unpure_a the_o ground_n shall_v le_fw-fr either_o obscure_a and_o little_a or_o much_o and_o that_o divers_a and_o unconcoct_v and_o this_o be_v the_o work_n of_o these_o four_o quality_n when_o they_o exceed_v alone_o but_o and_o it_o two_o of_o they_o exceed_v together_o there_o may_v result_v of_o that_o sort_n four_o other_o distemperances_n as_o hot_a and_o dry_a hot_a and_o moist_a cold_a and_o dry_a and_o cold_a and_o moist_a quality_n compound_v distemperature_n of_o quality_n now_o what_o alteration_n these_o and_o every_o one_o of_o they_o do_v cause_n the_o urine_n you_o may_v easy_o conjecture_v if_o you_o keep_v in_o mind_n that_o which_o i_o say_v of_o the_o four_o simple_a quality_n and_o so_o add_v together_o the_o alteration_n and_o this_o must_v you_o remember_v therewith_o that_o where_o they_o both_o agree_v in_o any_o alteration_n they_o cause_v that_o alteration_n to_o be_v the_o great_a and_o where_o they_o be_v contrary_a they_o cause_v the_o alteration_n to_o be_v near_o to_o a_o mean_a howbeit_o somewhat_o to_o help_v you_o take_v this_o brief_a declaration_n as_o a_o temperate_a man_n do_v make_v that_o perfect_a urine_n write_v of_o before_o man_n a_o temperate_a man_n in_o chap._n 6._o so_o the_o urine_n of_o a_o sanguine_a man_n which_o be_v hot_a and_o moist_a shall_v be_v yellow_a or_o light_a saffron_n colour_v by_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o heat_n and_o somewhat_o gross_a by_o reason_n of_o the_o moisture_n man_n a_o choleric_a man_n in_o a_o choleric_a man_n be_v hot_a and_o dry_a the_o urine_n shall_v be_v in_o colour_n as_o in_o sanguine_a man_n but_o in_o substance_n thin_a by_o reason_n of_o the_o dryness_n man_n a_o melancolike_a man_n the_o urine_n of_o a_o melancholy_a man_n who_o nature_n be_v cold_a and_o dry_a shall_v be_v white_a through_o the_o cold_a and_o clear_v for_o the_o dryness_n man_n a_o phlegmatic_a man_n the_o phlegmatic_a man_n which_o be_v cold_a and_o moist_a make_v urine_n white_a through_o cold_a and_o thick_a by_o the_o moisture_n for_o as_o heat_n and_o cold_a alter_v the_o colour_n so_o dryness_n and_o moisture_n change_v the_o substance_n now_o if_o you_o have_v remember_v all_o that_o i_o have_v write_v before_o then_o shall_v you_o be_v the_o meet_a and_o better_a able_a a_o great_a deal_n to_o preceive_v the_o reason_n of_o the_o token_n which_o urine_n do_v give_v and_o so_o shall_v your_o knowledge_n be_v the_o more_o certain_a if_o you_o know_v not_o only_o the_o thing_n but_o also_o the_o cause_n of_o it_o now_o therefore_o will_v i_o write_v of_o the_o signification_n of_o the_o part_n of_o urine_n particular_o that_o you_o may_v perceive_v that_o first_o and_o chief_a commodity_n of_o urine_n which_o it_o work_v for_o man_n health_n chap._n viii_o the_o signification_n of_o the_o part_n of_o urine_n particular_o i_o tell_v you_o in_o the_o sixth_o chapter_n of_o this_o book_n what_o urine_n be_v most_o perfect_a sound_a and_o healthful_a of_o all_o other_o and_o i_o say_v that_o it_o be_v the_o rule_n and_o trial_n to_o examine_v all_o other_o urine_v by_o so_o that_o the_o near_a that_o any_o urine_n be_v to_o it_o the_o better_a it_o be_v and_o the_o further_a that_o it_o decline_v from_o it_o the_o worse_a it_o be_v this_o i_o say_v shall_v be_v as_o a_o general_a rule_n which_o thing_n to_o be_v true_a in_o healthful_a man_n you_o may_v perceive_v by_o that_o i_o have_v write_v already_o and_o that_o it_o be_v also_o true_a in_o sick_a man_n hypocrates_n witness_v say_v that_o urine_n be_v best_a who_o ground_n be_v white_a due_o knit_v and_o stable_n all_o the_o time_n that_o the_o sickness_n prevail_v but_o galen_n to_o supply_v that_o that_o be_v understand_v in_o this_o say_n and_o so_o to_o make_v it_o perfect_a add_v thereto_o that_o it_o must_v be_v of_o colour_n party_n golden_a or_o pale_a and_o of_o a_o mean_a substance_n between_o thick_a and_o thin_a and_o also_o in_o these_o thing_n be_v require_v stableness_n to_o make_v it_o a_o perfect_a urine_n for_o that_o which_o be_v untable_a in_o any_o part_n in_o that_o it_o be_v not_o perfect_a here_o be_v a_o place_n to_o speak_v of_o the_o difference_n of_o this_o changeableness_n or_o unstableness_n for_o there_o be_v one_o sort_n call_v ordinary_a and_o another_o call_v unordinarie_a and_o of_o both_o these_o be_v there_o divers_a difference_n but_o because_o they_o depend_v of_o a_o exacter_n judgement_n then_o unlearned_a man_n can_v well_o attain_v unto_o i_o overpass_v they_o for_o this_o time_n and_o will_v declare_v the_o other_o difference_n of_o urine_n whereby_o it_o alter_v from_o this_o mean_a urine_n in_o all_o part_n particular_o urine_n substance_n of_o urine_n and_o first_o will_v begin_v with_o the_o substance_n of_o urine_n the_o which_o as_o i_o say_v fore_o be_v of_o three_o kind_n thick_a thin_a and_o mean_v a_o mean_a urine_n be_v that_o that_o be_v in_o the_o middle_n between_o extreme_a thick_a mean_n mean_n and_o extreme_a thin_a and_o as_o it_o be_v mean_a between_o they_o in_o substance_n so_o be_v it_o mean_v in_o signification_n for_o it_o do_v betoken_v of_o itself_o only_o good_a temperance_n and_o health_n but_o the_o other_o two_o betoken_v distemperance_n and_o default_n of_o concoction_n and_o that_o diverse_o according_a to_o the_o diversity_n of_o the_o cause_n of_o they_o as_o you_o shall_v now_o consequent_o hear_v fist_n to_o speak_v of_o thin_a urine_n either_o it_o do_v still_o so_o continue_v thin_a urine_n thin_a urine_n as_o it_o be_v first_o make_v or_o else_o it_o do_v short_o wax_v thick_a and_o trouble_a that_o that_o do_v continue_v still_o thin_a do_v betoken_v lack_n of_o concoction_n and_o so_o do_v the_o other_o also_o but_o yet_o this_o that_o continue_v thin_a betoken_v more_o lack_n of_o conoction_n for_o it_o betoken_v that_o nature_n have_v not_o yet_o begin_v to_o concoct_v and_o therefore_o be_v that_o water_n a_o sign_n of_o extreme_a crudity_n or_o rawness_n in_o nature_n but_o that_o that_o wax_v thick_a after_o it_o begin_v to_o cool_v though_o it_o betoken_v lack_n of_o concoction_n yet_o do_v it_o
