beginning of his sickly disposition which was on Sunday the 25. of October his Highnes hauing founde himselfe very ill the Saturday before though hee had played at Tinnish and farre worse on Sunday morning his face being pale and parched with heate his eyes hollow and of a wanne colour being at Whitehall about three of the clocke after noone fell in a light sowning an accident very common to him and many of his race which was followed by a light shivering and with a heat with great paine of the head which had lasted many dayes yea and with whirlings and giddinesse chiefly when he went about to rise out of his bed At last his Highnes had a fit of a feuer Whereupon the Kings Majesty hauing sent to him Doctor Mayerne his chiefe Physician hee being come to his Highnes at eight of the clocke at night found his Highnes in a feauer with a red visage with troubled eyes that could not indure the light of the candle his lippes blacke his tongue drie and an extreme thirst to drinke which hath alwayes exceedingly tormented his Highnes so long as his braine was free and able to feele his paine For this time the Doctor was content to ordaine a cordiall and refreshing ptisane to quench the thirst and a broth to be taken at the end of the fit Vpon the next day came together Doctor Hammon ordinary Physician to his Highnes and Doctor Mayerne the foresaid Physician to the King sent by his Majesty who hauing considered that his Highnes had had a most restles night as the preceeding five or six had been and finding him to haue the same thirst and drienes which he had before together with a starting of the sinue partes and the belly bent and the urines crude and white and costivenesse with common consent they ordained a lenitive glyster for him which caused him to voyd gently three or foure times some very stinking yelow choler All that day long his Highnes was without any feauer rose and played after dinner with the Duke of York hauing alwayes notwithstanding a most pitifull countenance and drienes in the mouth with some great alteration for which cause they ordained cordiall ulleps that were tart and cooling and to preuent all dangers forgot not to minister some Behezar Vnicornes horne and such like antidotes All his brothers were made according to the same intention and all the rest of his diet was to the same end The next night after the accustomed maner affoorded him no rest whith the drouth which one laboured to quench with the foresaid Iuleps The next day about noonetide the fit returned with cold and great heate which increased with greater measure of all its former accidents till eight of the clock at nine the feuer decreased and after ten ceased altogether The morning following his Highnes sleept quietly enough In the meane time were heard great noyses in his belly whereof the fore part and sides about the short ribs and aboue the nauill were bent more then ordinary Which being considered the foresaid Doctors hauing all that day striuen with cordials reckoning the beginning of the disease to haue been from the Prince his being at Richmond and not only from the Sunday weighing the profit which his Highnes had receiued by the excretions as well naturall as artificiall that had past before and looking to the maner of liuing and the great fulnes of putrified humours that were in the naturall partes which hauing been kindled had caused a feuer which followed the nature of a Tertian though venemous because of its notable putrefaction and ready to turne to a continuall feuer for the quantity of the mater as it came to passe afterward the foresaid Physicians I say aduised upon a light purgation which were able only to diminish the quantity of the humors judging the same to be so much the more necessary then the last Glyster and the stirring noyses heard in the belly did inuite one to solace nature by that part Thereupon his Highnes was desired by the foresaid Doctors to call a Councell of Physicians to consult and aduise more largely of this busines which he flatly refused as being unwilling to haue many Physicians as those that came afterward might gather by his countenance and the King his selfe can witnes So not to spend the next day following without doing that which was most necessary his Highnes being altogether without any feuer there was giuen to him a gentle medicine of boiled Sene and Rhubarbe infused in cordiall and cooling liquours with some Syrupe Rosate loosing This medicine wrought with incredible paine seauen or eight times and brought away great store of putrified choler and towards the end some putrified flegme From that day forth the urines beganne to change and to thicken and to shew some litle cloude which betokened concoction The night was troublesome after the accustomed maner saue in the morning His breath which was alwayes short became more easy and longer the paine of the head lesse Singings of the eares that continued though unequally from the beginning to the end the startings being alike In this case the Iuleps with the Behezar Vnicornes horne pearles and bone of the Stagges heart c. were continued Vpon the next the fit came with a light cooling which since that time was not felt and from that houre forth the feuer hath been alwayes continuall with notable remissions or breathings and very unequall redoublings euery day the one great the other lesse In the course of this continuall feuer the tongue became blacke the drouth the startings and singings did increase At ths end of the fifth day nature strained it selfe to voyd some thing by the belly but litle the urines did nowayes shew the greatnes of the danger Doctor Butler was called aside from the rest vvho counselled only to minister internall and externall cordials analeptickes and approued the diet that vvas prescribed and his advise vvas follovved The night vvas very restles and the morning as alvvayes some vvhat more gentle Vpon the sixth the entralles hauing been vvashed vvith fruit by a Glyster in the morning about three of the clock after noone came the lesse redoubling during vvhich the face vvas very red the breath short the pulse full of svviftnesse In the fitt the nose fell a bleeding but after the voyding of tvvo ounces of blood ceased not vvithout some easing This bleeding shevved it selfe though in smaller quantity the seauenth and eight day from that houre forth a motion vvas made of letting blood vvhereunto nature by this attempt did invite in a feuer moreouer continuall in an extreme fulnesse in a temperature excessively hott in a subject accustomed to bleed at the nose and deprived of his benefite these many moneths bypast Neuertheles the seauenth past ouer and the greater part of the Physicians vvas of the opinion that it vvas expedient to vvaite till the Crisis vvere come though the disease vvas crude and that there vvas no appearance at all thereof
