The third of the errours about the diet; as well of the sound as of the sick. 4. The fourth of the errours of the people about the use of remedies. Profitable and necessary to be read of all. To which is added by the same authour his verdict concerning the antimoniall cuppe. Translated into English by Robert Wittie Doctor in Physick.; De vulgi in medicinĂ¢ erroribus. English.

and_o no_o external_a thing_n happen_v which_o may_v change_v the_o urine_n perhaps_o the_o woman_n urine_n may_v be_v in_o some_o respect_n discern_v from_o the_o man_n but_o otherwhiles_o not_o at_o

the_o difference_n betwixt_o a_o man_n water_n and_o a_o woman_n for_o because_o man_n be_v say_v to_o be_v hot_a and_o be_v give_v to_o exercise_n they_o make_v thin_a urine_n and_o high_o colour_v with_o few_o content_n but_o woman_n because_o cold_a make_v white_a urine_n with_o a_o large_a sediment_n a_o whitish_a colour_n say_v fernel_n be_v a_o sign_n not_o only_o of_o crudity_n but_o of_o the_o sex_n likewise_o but_o even_o the_o hot_a man_n may_v make_v such_o urine_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o cause_n that_o change_v urine_n therefore_o in_o this_o there_o be_v no_o certainty_n and_o it_o be_v too_o much_o rashness_n to_o pronounce_v any_o such_o thing_n by_o urine_n concern_v woman_n with_o child_n urine_n a_o woman_n can_v be_v know_v to_o be_v with_o child_n by_o urine_n it_o

of_o a_o woman_n to_o have_v a_o sediment_n but_o that_o only_a which_o be_v well_o concoct_v first_o hypocrates_n who_o have_v exact_o search_v out_o all_o the_o sign_n of_o conception_n never_o

no_o proper_a or_o peculiar_a thing_n we_o see_v urine_n sometime_o of_o a_o low_a colour_n as_o happen_v frequent_o in_o obstruction_n sometime_o very_o high_a colour_a sometime_o like_a to_o the_o

he_o betake_v himself_o to_o some_o empyricall_a sign_n 5._o aphor._n 41._o lib._n 5._o if_o you_o will_v know_v say_v he_o whether_o a_o woman_n have_v conceive_v or_o no_o give_v she_o some_o

so_o easy_o to_o divine_v that_o by_o urine_n avenzoar_n a_o physician_n of_o principal_a note_n among_o the_o arabian_n report_n that_o he_o be_v deceive_v in_o his_o own_o wife_n although_o he_o

who_o can_v divine_v that_o i_o say_v this_o be_v a_o fable_n because_o i_o have_v hear_v the_o same_o in_o divers_a place_n of_o sundry_a physician_n as_o also_o because_o it_o be_v always_o

ouroscopie_n or_o look_v into_o urine_n do_v use_v the_o authority_n and_o argument_n of_o hercules_n saxonia_n a_o very_a learned_a physician_n heretofore_o among_o the_o italian_n who_o desire_v to_o patronize_v a_o little_a ouroscopie_n for_o he_o will_v have_v not_o only_o the_o cause_n of_o disease_n but_o also_o their_o idea_n magnitude_n and_o state_n to_o be_v know_v by_o urine_n not_o in_o general_a only_o but_o also_o in_o particular_a who_o opinion_n we_o will_v brief_o lay_v down_o first_o say_v he_o urine_v show_v disease_n in_o distemperature_n without_o matter_n and_o with_o matter_n a_o hot_a distemper_n without_o matter_n be_v either_o universal_a or_o of_o a_o determinate_a part_n and_o this_o be_v sometime_o without_o a_o fever_n sometime_o with_o a_o fever_n a_o

these_o do_v not_o show_v a_o distemper_n without_o matter_n but_o with_o matter_n for_o urine_n have_v not_o these_o colour_n but_o by_o the_o mixture_n of_o humour_n hence_o in_o a_o diary_n fever_n

may_v also_o be_v a_o phlegman_n or_o erysipelas_n of_o some_o part_n the_o same_o galen_n do_v aver_v that_o a_o hot_a distemperature_n of_o the_o part_n may_v be_v discern_v by_o the_o very_a same_o urine_n what_o therefore_o can_v the_o divine_a say_v if_o urine_n do_v only_o show_v a_o disease_n in_o general_a and_o not_o in_o particular_a how_o will_v he_o know_v by_o the_o urine_n rather_o the_o heat_n of_o the_o reins_n then_o of_o the_o liver_n or_o of_o the_o whole_a body_n second_o he_o object_n that_o urine_n be_v as_o it_o be_v the_o whey_n of_o the_o humour_n which_o be_v distribute_v into_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o part_n so_o that_o when_o the_o whey_n be_v sever_v it_o carry_v with_o it_o the_o excrement_n of_o those_o part_n and_o thereupon_o it_o may_v show_v their_o affect_n but_o i_o answer_v the_o alteration_n of_o the_o whey_n be_v so_o diverse_a that_o it_o can_v be_v discern_v what_o part_n especial_o have_v alter_v it_o again_o the_o excrement_n of_o many_o of_o the_o part_n be_v the_o same_o and_o unless_o of_o the_o content_v the_o urine_n be_v extraordinary_a as_o matter_n dregs_o or_o the_o substance_n of_o some_o part_n the_o whey_n will_v show_v nothing_o in_o particular_a or_o yet_o when_o these_o be_v apparent_a except_o there_o be_v other_o sign_n can_v we_o scarce_o know_v whence_o they_o come_v unless_o out_o of_o the_o bladder_n itself_o as_o bran_n do_v argue_v a_o affect_a bladder_n three_o he_o teach_v in_o my_o judgement_n a_o very_a vain_a thing_n to_o wit_n how_o the_o whey_n of_o the_o liver_n may_v be_v difference_v from_o that_o of_o the_o vein_n as_o if_o the_o liver_n have_v any_o whey_n proper_a to_o itself_o or_o as_o if_o the_o whey_n of_o the_o vein_n be_v not_o first_o digest_v in_o the_o liver_n now_o this_o he_o teach_v to_o know_v by_o the_o quantity_n and_o substance_n because_o the_o whey_n of_o the_o vein_n be_v more_o in_o quantity_n and_o thick_a in_o substance_n than_o the_o whey_n of_o the_o liver_n which_o be_v false_a for_o the_o quantity_n of_o the_o whey_n be_v from_o the_o moist_a matter_n which_o be_v take_v in_o which_o first_o pass_v to_o the_o liver_n before_o it_o come_v to_o the_o vein_n but_o if_o the_o urine_n be_v more_o in_o quantity_n then_o the_o drink_n that_o be_v drink_v it_o be_v necessary_a that_o some_o other_o thing_n must_v be_v mix_v therewith_o four_o he_o say_v that_o galen_n will_v have_v the_o urine_n look_v into_o in_o a_o pleurisy_n and_o the_o disease_n of_o the_o lung_n but_o we_o say_v before_o that_o in_o such_o disease_n itself_o urine_n note_v the_o event_n of_o the_o disease_n and_o not_o the_o disease_n itself_o urine_n serve_v not_o for_o discern_v of_o the_o disease_n but_o for_o the_o foreknowledge_n of_o the_o event_n the_o same_o may_v be_v say_v of_o a_o cold_a distemper_n which_o in_o general_a we_o grant_v may_v be_v discern_v by_o urine_n but_o never_o in_o particular_a for_o in_o diabetes_n in_o the_o beginning_n of_o fit_n in_o a_o ill_a habit_n of_o the_o body_n dropsy_n lethargy_n and_o other_o disease_n although_o urine_n may_v be_v crude_a yet_o they_o do_v not_o show_v the_o affect_n of_o these_o part_n more_o than_o other_o therefore_o he_o be_v mistake_v when_o he_o say_v that_o a_o cold_a womb_n may_v be_v discern_v by_o urine_n because_o in_o respect_n of_o its_o vicinity_n the_o distemperature_n of_o it_o be_v impart_v to_o the_o urine_n notwithstanding_o why_o shall_v a_o crude_a urine_n rather_o show_v the_o womb_n than_o the_o liver_n again_o if_o the_o urine_n distil_v into_o the_o bladder_n high_a colour_v by_o some_o hot_a cause_n the_o womb_n although_o cold_a shall_v not_o bereave_v it_o of_o the_o colour_n which_o it_o have_v from_o the_o mixture_n of_o the_o choler_n and_o although_o the_o womb_n be_v somewhat_o hot_a may_v give_v some_o colour_n to_o the_o urine_n yet_o be_v cold_a it_o can_v take_v away_o the_o colour_n which_o it_o have_v contract_v some_o other_o way_n five_o he_o say_v that_o the_o humour_n may_v flow_v from_o all_o the_o part_n in_o the_o bladder_n and_o therefore_o the_o urine_n will_v show_v the_o several_a disease_n of_o they_o i_o answer_v first_o the_o secondary_a humour_n do_v not_o return_v unless_o there_o be_v a_o melt_a of_o the_o whole_a body_n second_o the_o humour_n once_o depart_v out_o of_o

but_o no_o man_n sweat_v of_o his_o own_o accord_n unless_o he_o be_v not_o well_o again_o although_o the_o humour_n do_v return_v into_o the_o vein_n yet_o they_o will_v not_o show_v the_o peculiar_a
