Chyrurgia Chirurgery is an Art wherein by the help of our Hands or Instruments we endeavour to Cure Diseases Or it is a part of the Art Theraputic wherein Diseases are Cured by Incision Burning and Setting Joynts Or it is a Science which teaches the manner and way of Operation upon Living Human Bodies and it is five-fold tho others chuse rather to divide it into Four Parts 1. Synthesis a setting together of things separate 2. Diaeresis a separating of things that were continued before 3. Diorthosis a correcting of things squeezed together and contorted 4. Exeresis a taking away of Superfluities 5. Anaplerosis a Restoring of that which was Deficient Chirurgus one skilful in this art of Chirurgery Chlorosis or Morbus virgineus commonly Icterus albus seems to be a kind of Phlegmatick Pituitous Dropsie arising from an obstruction of the Courses want of Fermentation in the Blood and a Detention or Depravation of the Ferment in the Womb whereupon the Muscular Fibres being obstructed they become lazie and unfit for Action Choana is a sort of Cavity or Tunnel in the Basis of the Brain by which the serous Excrements are brought down from the Ventricles of the Brain to the Pituitary Glandulae also the Pelvis of the Reins of which in its proper Place Choenicis the same with modiolus Choenix is a sort of Measure containing two Sextaries which is Three Pints of our Measure Choeras the same with Scrophula Cholagoga are Medicines which purge Sulphureous and Bilious Humors as Rhubarb Senna c.

the former is that which does not quite take away the Disease but enables the Patient to bear it better the latter is when the Disease becomes more violent and dangerous That Crises depend upon the Motion and Influence of the Moon and Stars and follow their Quadrate and opposite Aspects or their Conjunctions is false and frivolous for Critical Evacuations are determined only according to the store and turgescencie of Adust Matter which is Expelled the Body sooner or later according to the different Temperament of the Persons Affected whereupon depends the variety of Critical days Cristae are Excrescencies of Flesh growing about the Fundament from a preposterous use of Coition the Roots whereof are often Chapt and Cleft Christa Galli is the Third part of the Bone Ethmoides or the inner

the same that Crisis Crithe or Hordeolum is a little Oblong Push or Swelling which grows to the Eye-brows where the Hairs are so called from its resemblance to a Barly-corn Critici dies are those whereon there happens a sudden change of a Disease and they are Threefold some are called truly and perfectly Critical others Indices others Intercidentes The perfectly Critical Days are called Principes or Radicales because that the Crisis which happen on these days have all the marks of a perfect Crisis and these are the Seventh the Fourteenth and the Twenty-first Day Indices which are called also Contemplabiles and Internuncii are those which Indicate that the Crisis will be on the Seventh day and these are Three the Fourth the Eleventh and Seventeenth Day Intercidentes which are called also Intercalares irrepentes or provocatorii and those which fall betwixt the days called Principes Indices and they onely aim at an imperfect Crisis and are the Third the Fifth the Ninth the Thirteenth and the Nineteenth but all other Days which are neither Principes nor Indices nor Intercidentes are called Vacui and Medicinales and they are the Sixth the Eighth the Tenth the Twelfth the Sixteenth and the Eighteenth The computation of Critical Days is to be Instituted from that hour wherein the Patient first felt himself ill We may observe by the by That the computation of Critical Days in these Countries does not exactly correspond with Hypocrates his Accounts All these days depend upon the sooner or later Fermentation and Maturation of the Morbific Matter Critica Signa Critical Signs are such as are taken from a Crisis either towards Death or a Recovery and some of them are antecedent which either fore-tell the time of a Crisis or signifie a kind of Crisis Others are concomitant which appear at the same time with the Crisis And others Lastly are Subsequent which shew whether an imperfect Recovery be to be expected or there be fear of a Relapse Crotaphites are

Humores in Secundinis Humours in the Three Membranes that cloathe the Faetus in the Womb are Three in those Animals which have Bladders at the beginning when the Eggs falls down from the Testicles into the Womb the Humours which are to this purpose in the bottom of the Womb first sink into the Membrane called Chorion and then into the Amnium but in progress of time when the Faetus is Formed and the Navel Vessels are extended to the Chorion and the Amnium we imagine that the Nutritious Humour being received by the opening of the Veins is carried to the Faetus and thence by the Arteries some part of it is carried into the Amnium as into the Childs Store-house so that at the said time the Liquor of the Membrane Amnium may be encreased upon this double account At last when the time of delivery draws near that way of Sweating through seems to cease and the other onely to take place unless as Wharton Writes The Nutritious Humour descend from the Placenta by the Navel-string and by the little soft Protuberances thence pass into the Cavity of the Amnium The use of these Humours is to nourish the Faetus at the Mouth The Third Humour is the Urine which flows from the Bladder by the
