is greater and swifter than the systole the substance colour and sediment of the urine differ little from that which is Natural Galen to Glan And its fits are very easie if it arise from the inflammation of some Bubo or from the suppression of some humour the urine shall be higher and thicker with a little sediment and that crasse and crude it invades with rigour and easily degenerates into an unputrid Synochus if the Sick bee plethorical or into a Synechis if he be Cacochymous or into an Hectick if it be neglected or ill cured Such are most subject to it as are picrocholous and of a hot and dry temperament and in the Summer time if it be exquisite it is cured by the benefit of Nature alone and for the most part its fit is twenty four hours but sometimes lasts till the third day when the vital spirits are most crasse if it be prorogued longer it is not exquisite but is either an unputrid Synochus or joyned with a putrid Feaver into which it easily degenerates The rule for Cure is not taken from the matter because there is none but from the essence of the Feaver which consists in the preter-natural heat wch ought to be remedied by coolers and moystners for the faults of the spirits cannot be taken away by purging or bleeding because here is neither cacochimy nor plenitude Hippocrates in the Fourth part of his Book of Dyet in acute Diseases and Galen in his Book of Procatarctical Causes cured Menander sick of a Diary caused by heat with Paregorical and Diaphoretical Medicines as Baths Frictions and Oyntments We use Baths when wee intend to relax the skin call forth tenuous fullginous vapours and change the habit of the body but in the declination of the Feaver with gentle friction that we may cause sweats and the fumid excrements may be discussed and then especially when there is no crudity in the chief Vessels nor inveterate obstruction of the viscera nor hardness or weakness lest that the crudity bee carried into all parts of the body if none of these things be then the Sick may safely wash otherwise not least that the obstruction and weaknesse of the viscera bee increased and the tumor if there be any It is good against the thickness and obstruction of the skin from cold or astringent causes if a Diary have its rise from driness and heat let the Bath be luke-warme and not hot having first emptied the belly if it were costive with a Suppository or cooling and moystning Glister least it degenerate into a Hectick or Synochus If from the thickness of the skin by reason of too great cold or by use of aluminous Baths Diaphoretical and Paregorical Medicines must be boyled in the water for those take away obstructions and provoke sweats being of a hot and tenuous substance and cause the cooleness of the water to penetrate the deeper but these being temperate or hot in the first degree and of thin substance as the Roots of Marsh Mallows Fenugreek Flowers of Camomel Melilot and Elder by these means the closeness of the skin is to bee made open least perspiration being hindred the Humours bee inflamed together with the Spirits and so a putrid Feaver ensue to the great damage of the diseased The ancients used Bathing more for delight than health which custome is now out of use We in France use Baths of plaine water or with a decoctron of Plants not for pleasure but for the cure of an Ephemera because they moysten contemperate the feaverish heat and empty acrid vapours To wipe off the sweat is good with gentle frictions with warme Oyle because it opens the pores of the skin and calls forth the spirits from the center to the circumference but too vehement doth stop them up Oyntment and Frictions are not good for such Diaries as proceed from tumours inflamed or from labour because there is no need of evacuation Frictions are good in those from obstruction and repletion but not in those from inanition though Galen did use gentle frictions in all Ephemeraes before the Bath or Oyntment that the discutient water or oyle might pierce the deeper and the same Galen in other procatarctical causes uses contrary remedies as for labour he commands rest for watchings sleep for anger calmness for sadness joy and for venery chastness these have no need of Frictions only anoynt them with Oyle of Violets and smooth over the body in the remission and before meats If it be from Drunkenness command a Vomit if from cold use Diaphoreticks if from obstruction of the viscera incisive and aperient Medicines if from a Catharre purge next day if from an Ulcer or Bubo wee must attend the cure of Ulcers and Tumours and so of the rest The Diet is to be ordered according to the variety of the cause if hot weather be the cause of the Diary and the Patient be young and his viscera good without obstruction plethory or cacochymy of soluble body and cholerick constitution at the declination of the Feaver he may be cured with plentiful drinking of cold water if otherwise the Cure is to be altered you must not nourish him in the augment or vigour of the Fit but in the end or out of it Hippo.

XXIV Of Malignant and pestilent Feavers {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} that is of malignant Feavers some are essential others symptomatical the essential have a great analogy with putred Feavers from which they differ not in matter but only by a malignant quality venenate and contagious either produced in us or induced into us they differ also from Hecticks not by macilency which in these is caused by degrees in them speedily which variously waste the substance of the body as the Leipyria Syncope c. of which in their place The Symptomatical Feavers are those which follow the inflammations of the Viscera and Burning-feavers from which they also differ by their malignant quality as the essential also doe A Leipyria is two-fold the one essential the other symptomatical the essential is caused from glassie flegme cold in the third degree collected in the bowels though with some mixture of choller yet notwithstanding that it may putrefie the heat is called from the external parts to the internal in which is kindled no small fire hence it is that the inwards burne and the outward parts are cold from whence if a thirst follow it is deadly the fourth day or sooner saith Hippocrates This is cured as a continual quartan and if symptomatical as a causus or continual tertian with this caution that to all remedies both internal and external we mixe something cordial which may retund the venenate and malignant quality without any manifest heat A Syncopal Feaver hath its name from the Symptome because the diseased are troubled with faintings and swounings by reason of the exact sense and hurt of the mouth of the Stomach The efficient cause is either crasse flegme putrefied in the stomach with some maligne or venenate quality which carried upwards to the mouth of the stomach doth 〈◊〉 and wound it from whence is paine and faintings and sometimes a Syncope that is a sudden loss of strength with sweats more or less sometimes it is from aeruginous choller which is wholly pernicious whose vapour carried to the mouth of the stomach doth wound it from whence are faintings Convulsions and death unless it bee vomited up as Galen mentions in a young man this Feaver is very rare and observes the type of a quotidian which is worst towards the evening If it come from prassinous or aeruginous choller the signes are taken from a hot and dry season of the year from a young mac●lent and bilious body or from a continual burning feaver or tertian with a malignant quality which usually kills before the fourth fit that from aeruginous choller is worse the pulse is swift from the abundance of heat inequal from the multitude of the obnoxious humour oppressing Nature hard from the driness of the Humour and Vessels small from the weakness the parts about the heart and whole body seemes puft up and tumid the colour is vitiated in some white in others livid or black the belchings are acid if from flegme bitter from porraceous choller the eyes prominent the tongue acid and black
