ulcered and all the bones cariez'd and rotten prayed me for the honor of God to cut off his Legge by reason of the great paine which he could no longer endure After his body was prepared I caused his legge to be cut off fowre fingers below the rotula of the knee by Daniel Powlet one of my servants to teach him and to imbolden him in such workes and there he readily tyed the vessells to stay the bleeding without application of hot irons in the presence of Iames Guillemea● ordinary Chirurgion to the King and Iohn Charbonell master Barber Chirurgion of Paris and during the cure was visited by Master Laffile and Master Courtin Doctors Regents in the facultie of Medicine at Paris The said operation was made in the house of Iohn Gohell Inkeeper dwelling at the signe of the white horse in the Greve I will not here forget to say that the Lady Princesse of Montpe●sier knowing that he was poore and in my hands gave him money to pay for his chamber and diet He was well cured God be praysed and is returned home to his house with a wooden Leg. Another History A Gangreene happened to halfe of the Legge to one named Nicholas Mesnager aged threescore and sixteene yeares dwelling in S. Honores street at the signe of the Basket which happened to him through an inward cause so that wee were constrained to cut off his Legge to save his life and it was taken off by Anthony Renaud master Barber Chirurgion of Paris the 16. day of December 1583. in the presence of Master Le Fort and Master La Noüe sworne Chirurgions of Paris and the blood was stanched by the Ligature of the vessells and hee is at this present cured and in health walking with a woodden Leg. Another History A Waterman at the Port of Nesle dwelling neare Monsieur de Mas Postmaster named Iohn Boussereau in whose hands a Musket brake asunder which broke the bones of his head and rent and tore the other parts in such sort that it was needfull and necessary to make amputation of the hand two fingers above the wrist which was done by Iames Guillemeau then Chirurgion in ordinary to the king who dwelt at that time with me The operation likewise being redily done and the blood stancht by the Ligature of the vessells without burning irons hee is at this present living Another History A Merchant Grocer dwelling in St Denis street at the signe of the great Tournois named the Iudge who fell upon his head where was made a wound neare the temporall muscle where he had an artery opened from whence issued forth blood with great impet●osity in so much that common remedies would not serve the turne I was called thither where I found Master Rasse Master Cointeret Master Viard sworne Chirurgions of Paris to stay the blood where presently I tooke a needle and thread and tyed the arterie and it bled no more after that and was quickly cured Master Rousselet can witnesse it not long since Deacon of your Facultie who was in the cure with us Another History A Sergeant of the Chastler dwelling neare S. Andrew des Arts who had a stroake of a sword upon the throate in the Clackes medow which cut asunder the jugular veine externe as soone as he was hurt he put his handkercher upon the wound and came to looke mee at my house and when hee tooke away his handkercher the blood leaped out with great impetuosity I suddainly tyed the veine toward the roote he by this meanes was stanched and cured thankes be to God And if one had followed your manner of stanching blood by cauteries I leave it to be supposed whether he had beene cured I thinke hee had beene dead in the hands of the operator If I would recite all those whose vessells were tyed to stay the blood which have beene cured I should not have ended this long time so that me thinkes there are Histories enough recited to make you beleeve the blood of veines and arteries is surely stanched without applying any actuall cauteries DV BARTVS He that doth strive against experience Daignes not to talke of any learned science NOw my little Master seeing that you reproach me that I have not written all the operations of Chirurgery in my workes which the Ancients writ of I should be very sorry for it for then indeede might you justly call me Carnifex I have left them because they are too cruell and am willing to follow the modernes who have moderated such cruelty which notwithstanding you have followed step by step as appeareth by the operations here written extracted from your booke which you have drawne here and there from certaine ancient Authors such as follow and such as you have never practised nor seene The first operation TO inveterate fluxions of the eyes Migrimes Paulus Aegineta as also Albucasis command to make Arteriotomie see here the words of the same Aeginete You marke the Arteries which are behind the eares then divide them in cutting to the very bone and make a great incision the breadth of two fingers which is the will also of Aetius that the incision be made tranverse cutting or incising the length of two fingers even till that the Artery be found as you command to bee done in your booke but I holding the opinion of Galen who commands to dresse the diseased quickly safely and with the least paine that is possible I teach the young Chirurgion the meanes to remedy such evills in opening the Arteries behind the eares and those of the Temples with one onely incision as a letting blood and not to make a great incision and cut out worke for a long time The second operation TO fluxions which are made a long time upon the eyes Paul Aeginete and Albucasis command to make incision which they call Periscythismos or Augiologie of the Greekes and see heere the words of Paul In this operation first the head is shaved then taking heede of touching the temporall muscles a transverse incision must bee made beginning at the left Temple and finishing at the right which you have put in your booke word for word without changing any thing which sheweth openly you are a right wound-maker as may be s●ene in the Chapter which you call the Crowne cut which is made halfe round under the Coronall suture from one temple to the another even to the bone Now I doe not teach such a cruell kind of remedy but instruct the operator by reason authority and notable proofe of a sure and certaine way to remedy such affections without butchering men in this kind The third IN the cure of the Empyema Paul Aeginete Albucasis and Celsus commanded to apply some 13. others 15. Cauterles to give issue to the matter contained in the breast as the said Celsus in the aforesaid place appointeth for Asthmatick people which is a thing out of all reason with respect to their honour be it spoken
dresse my Lord who had received a Pistoll shot in the middle of the spondills of his backe whereby he presently lost all sence and motion of thighes and legges with retention of excrements not being able to cast out his Vrine nor anything by the fundament because that the spinall marrow from whence proceede the sinewes to give sense and motion to the inferiour parts was bruised broken and torne by the vehemence of the bullet He likewise loft his reason and understanding and in a few dayes he dyed The Chirurgions of Paris were a long time troubled to dresse the sayd wounded people I beleeve my little master that you saw some of them I beseech the great God of Victories that we may never be imployed in such evill encounters and disasters The voyage of Bayonne 1564. NOw I say moreover what I did in the voyage with the King to Bayonne where we have beene two yeares and more to compasse all this Kingdome where in divers Citties and Villages I have beene called into consultations for divers diseases with the deceased Monsieur Chaplaine cheefe Phisition to the King and Monsieur Chastellan cheefe to the Queene Mother a man of great honour and knowledge in Physicke and Chirurgery making this voyage I was alwayes inquisitive of the Chirurgions if they had marked any rare thing of remarke in their practice to the end to learne some new thing Being at Bayonne there happened two things of remarke for the young Chirurgions The first was that I drest a Spanish Gentleman who had a greevous great impostume in his throate he came to have beene touched by the deceased King Charles for the Evill I made incision in his Aposteme where there was found great quantity of creeping wormes as bigge as the point of a spindle having a blacke head and there was great quantity of rotten flesh Moreover there was under his tongue an impostume called ●anula which hindred him to utter forth his words and to eate and swallow his meate he pray'd mee with his held up hands to open it for him if it could be done without perill of his person which I immediatly did and found under my Lancet a solid body which was five stones like those which are drawne from the bladder The greatest was as big as an Almond and the other like little long Beanes which were five in number in this aposteme was contained a slimy humor of a yellow colour which was more than foure spoonefulls I left him in the hands of a Chirurgion of the Citty to finish the cure Monsieur de Fontaine Knight of the Kings Order had a great continuall pestilent Feaver accompanyed with divers Carboneles in divers parts of his body who was two dayes without ceasing to bleed at nose nor could it be stancht and by that meanes the feaver ceased with a very great sweat and soone after the Charboncles ripened and were by me dressed and by the grace of God cured I have publisht this Apologie to the end that each man may know with what foot I have alwayes marched and I thinke there is not any man so ticklish which taketh not in good part what I have said seeing my discourse is true and that the effect sheweth the thing to the eye reason being my warrant against all Calumnies The end of the Apologie and Voyages FINIS A GENERALL TABLE OF ALL THE CHIEFE THINGS TREAted of in this Worke.

cracke or clift by the meanes we shall shew you hereafter When you are certaine of the fracture then you must diligently consider the greatnesse of the disease and apply medicines speedily Verily when a fracture chances to light upon any future the disease is hard to be knowne unlesse the fracture be very great because the futures by their clifts and roughnesse resemble fractures wherefore Hippocrates faith that he was deceived by them Now having briefely delivered the differences and signes of a broken scull it is time to come to the severall kindes thereof with a Fissure CHAP. IIII. Of a Fissure being the first kinde of a broken scull IF the Chirurgion by the forementioned signes shall know that the scull is broken or crackt and if the Wound made in the musculous skin shall not be thought sufficient for ordering the fissure then must he shave off the haire and cut with a razour or incision knife the musculous skinne with the Pericranium lying under it in a triangular or quadrangular figure to a proportionable bignesse alwayes shunning as much as in him lies the futures and temples neither must the feare any harme to ensue hereof for it is farre better to bare the bone by cutting the skinne then to suffer the kinde and nature of the fracture to remaine unknowne by a too religious preservation of the skinne for the skinne is cured without any great adoe though pluckt off to no purpose For it is much more expedient in Hippocrates opinion to cure diseases safely and securely though not speedily than to doe it in a shorter time with feare of relapse and greater inconveniencies Let this dissection bee made with a razour or sharpe knife and if there be any Wound made in the skinne by the weapon let one of your incisions be made agreeable thereto A Razour or Incision knife Now therefore the Musculous skinne together with the Pericranium must be divided and cut with a sharpe razour pressed and guided with a strong and steddy hand then must it be so pluckt from the bone or scull lying under it that none thereof remaine upon the bone for if it should be rent or torne with the Trepane it would cause vehement feavers with inflammation You must beginne to pull it backe at the corners of the lines crossing each other with right angles with this Chissell whose figure you see here expressed A Chissell or Instrument to pull backe or separate the Pericranium from the Scull Then you must fill all the wound with boulsters of fine soft linte that so the lippes may be kept further a sunder But you shall apply upon it medicines fit to stanch blood But if it come so to passe that the blood flowes forth so violently that it can be stayed by no meanes the vessell it selfe must be bound after this manner First thrust thorough the musculous skinne on the outside with a needle and thred then thrust the needle backe againe then tye the thred on a knot on the out-side but first put some lint rolled up to the bignesse of a Goose quill betweene the thred and the hairy scalpe on both sides thereof least the strait twitching of the thred which may serve to stay the bleeding may cut and teare the skinne or cause paine then must you raise his head somewhat higher I have lately tried and performed this upon a certaine Coach-man who throwne from the Coach upon his head on a pavement of freestone exceedingly bruised the hind part of the Bregma for which cause it was fit to open the Musculous skinne with a crosse incision both that the congealed blood might bee pressed out as also that the fracture if there were any might be observed But an Artery being cut in performance hereof when as the Chirurgion who was there present could not stay the blood leaping out with violence and the Coachman already had lost so great a quantity thereof that his strength was so much decayed that hee could not stirre himselfe in his bed or scarce speake I being called shewed them by experience that whereas a stringent medicines were used before to no purpose it was better to stay the bleeding by binding the vessell than to let the patient die for a childish feare of pricking him But that we may returne to our former matter the Chirurgion shall the next day consider with what kinde of fracture the bone is hurt and if no signes of hurt appeare to the eyes nor be perceived with your fingers and probe yet some of the rationall signes may cause one to have a conjecture that there is a fracture Then you must annoint as we told you before the bared bone with writing Inke and a little oyle of Roses that the cleft or cracke may be dyed or coloured therewith if that therebe any there Then the next dressing you must drie the bone with a linnen cloth and scrape off the Inke and oyle with scraping Instruments made for the purpose if any part thereof shall be suncke into the bone for if there be any cracke it will bee black Wherfore you must continue scraping untill no signe of the fissure remaine or else untill you come even to the Dura Mater But that he may be more certaine whether the fissure pierce thorough both the Tables of the scull he must bid the Patient that stopping his nose mouth he strive to breathe with a great endevour For then bloody matter or sanies will sweat thorough the fissure For the breath driven forth of the chest and prohibited passage forth swells and lifts up the substance of the braine and the Meninges wherereupon that frothy humidity and Sanies sweats forth Therefore then the bone must be cut even to the Dura Mater with Radule and other scraping Instruments fit for that purpose yet so as you hurt not the membrane but if the fissure shall be somewhat long it will not bee convenient to follow it all the extent thereof for nature will repaire and restore the remnant of the fissure by generating a Callus besides also the Chirurgion according to Celsus opinion must take away as little of the bone as he can because there is nothing so fit to cover the braine as the scull Therefore it shall suffice to make a passage whereby the blood and Sanies may passe and be drawne forth least that matter being suppressed may corrupt the bone and cause an inflammation in the braine But the broken bone must bee taken forth within three dayes if it be possible especially in Sommer for feare of inflammation Yet I have oftentimes taken forth with a Trepan and with Scrapers the bones of the scul after the seaventeenth day both in Winter Sommer and that with happy successe Which I have the rather noted least any should at any time suffer the wounded to be left destitute of remedie for it is better to trie a doubtfull remedie than none Yet the By-standers shall be

Of the generall cure of a Gangreene THe Indications of curing Gangreenes are to be drawne from their differences for the cure must bee diversely instituted according to the essence and magnitude For some Gangreenes possesse the whole member others onely some portion thereof some are deepe othersome superficiall onely Also you must have regard to the temper of the body For soft and delicate bodyes as of children women Eunuches and idle persons require much milder medicines than those who by nature and custome or vocation of life are more strong and hardy such as husbandmen labourers marriners huntsmen potters and men of the like nature who live sparingly and hardly Neither must you have respect to the body in generall but also to the parts affected for the fleshy and musculous parts are different from the solide as the Nerves and joynts or more solide as the Vertebrae Now the hot and moyst parts as the Privities mouth wombe and fundament are easilyer and sooner taken hold of by putrifaction wherefore we must use more speedy meanes to helpe them Wherefore if the Gangreene be cheefely occasioned from an internall cause he must have a dyet prescribed for the decent and fitting use of the sixe things not naturall If the body be plethoricke or full of ill humors you must purge or let blood by the advice of a Physition Against the ascending up of vapours to the noble parts the heart must cheefely be strengthened with Treacle dissolved in Sorrell or Carduus water with a bole of Mithridate the conserves of Roses Buglosse and with Opiates made for the present purpose according to Art this following Apozeme shall be outwardly applyed to the region of the heart ℞ aquae rosar nenuphar an ℥ iiij aceti scillitici ℥ j. corallorum santalorum alborum rubrorum rosar rub inpulver radactarum spodij an ℥ j. mithrid theriacae an ʒijss trochiscorum de Caphura ʒij crociʒj ex omnibus in pollinem redactis fiat epithema Which may be applyed upon the region of the heart with a scarlet clot or spunge These are usually such as happen in the cure of every Gangreene CHAP. XVI Of the particular cure of a Gangreene THe cure of a Gangreene caused by the too plentifull and violent defluxion of humors suffocating the native heate by reason of great Plegmons is performed by evacuating and drying up the humors which putrifie by delay and collection in the part For this purpose scarifications and incisions great indifferent small deepe and superficiary according to the condition of the Gangreene are much commended that so the burdened part may enjoy the benefit of perspiration and the contained humors of difflation or evacuation of their footy excrements Let incisions be made when the affect is great deepe in and neere to mortification But scarifications may be used when the part first begins to putrefie for the greatnesse of the remedy must answere in proportion to that of the disease Wherefore if it penetrate to the bones it will bee fit to cut the skin and flesh with many and deepe incisions with an incision knife made for that purpose yet take heede of cutting the larger nerves and vessels unlesse they be wholy putrified for if they be not yet putrified you shall make your incisions in the spaces betweene them if the Gangreene be lesse we must rest satisfied with onely scarifying it When the scarifications and incisions are made we must suffer much blood to flow forth that so the conjunct matter may bee evacuated Then must we apply and put upon it such medicines as may by heating drying resolving clensing and opening amend and correct the putrefaction and by peircing to the bottome may have power to overcome the virulencie already impact in the part For this purpose Lotions made of the lye of the Ashes of fig-tree or Oake wherein Lupines have bin throughly boyled are good Or you may with lesse trouble make a medicine with salt water wherein you may dissolve Aloes and Aegyptiacum adding in the conclusion a little Aqua vitae for aqua vitae and calcined vitrioll are singular medicines for a Gangreene Or ℞ acet opimi lb. j. mel ros ℥ iiij syrup acetosi ℥ iij. salis com ℥ v. bulliant simul adde aq vitae lb. s Let the part be frequently washed with this medicine for it hath much force to represse Gangreenes After your Lotion lay Aegyptiacum for a Liniment and put it into the incisions for there is no medicine more powerfull against putrefaction for by causing an Eschar it separates the putride flesh from the sound But we must not in this kinde of affect expect that the putride flesh may of it selfe fall from the sound but rather cut off with your incision knife or sissers whatsoever thereof you can then put to it Egyptiacum as oft as neede shall require The knowledge hereof may be acquired from the colour smell and sensiblenesse of the flesh its selfe The description of the Egyptiacum whose wondrous effects I have often tryed in these causes is this ℞ floris aris aluminis roch mellis com an ℥ iij. aceti acerrimi ℥ v. salis com ℥ j. vitrioli rom ℥ ss sublimatipul ʒij bulliant omnia simul ad ignem fiat unguent If the force of the putrefaction in the part be not so great a weaker Aegyptiacum may serve When you have put in the Aegyptiacum then presently lay the following Cataplasme thereupon For it hinders putrefaction resolves cleanses dryes up the virulent sanies and by the dry subtlety of the parts penetrates into the member strengthens it and asswages the paine ℞ farin fabar hor dei orobi lent lupin an lb. s sal com mellis rosat an ℥ iiij succi absinth marrub an ℥ iiss aloes mastiches myrrhae aqua vit an ℥ ij oxymelitis simpl quantum sufficit fiat Cataplasma molle secundum artem Somewhat higher than the part affected apply this following astringent or defensitive to hinder the flowing down of the humors into the part and the rising up of the vapours from the putride part into the whole body ℞ oleirosati myrtill an ℥ 4. succi plantag solani sempervivi an ℥ ij album ovorum 5. boli armeni te●rae sigillata subtiliter pulver●satorum an ℥ j. oxycrati quantum sufficit misce ad usum dictum But these medicines must be often renewed If the greefe be so stubborne that it will not yeeld to the described remedies wee must come to stronger to wit Cauteries after whose application Galen bids to put upon it the juice of a Leeke with salt beaten and dissolved therewith for that this medicine hath a peircing and drying faculty and consequently to hinder putrifaction But if you prevaile nothing with Cauteries then must you come to the last remedy and refuge that is the amputation of the part For according to Hippocrates to extreame diseases exquisitly
continue thereafter The incision being dilated the Surgeon putting one or two of his fingers into the necke of the wombe shall presse the bottome of the bladder and then thrust his crooked instruments or forcipes in by the wound and with these he shall easily pluck out the stone which he shall keepe with his fingers from slipping backe againe Yet Laurence Collo the Kings Surgeon and both his sunnes than whom I doe not know whether ever there were better cutters for the stone doe otherwise performe this operation for they doe not thrust their fingers into the fundament or necke of the wombe but contenting themselves with putting in onely the Guiders whereof we formerly made mention into the passage of the urine they presently thereupon make a streight incision directly at the mouth of the neck of the bladder and not on the side as is usually done in men Then they gently by the same way thrust the forcipes hollowed on the outside formerly delineated and so dilate the wound by tearing it as much as shall be sufficient for the drawing of the stone forth of the bladder The residue of the cure is the same with that formerly mentioned in men yet this is to be added that if an ulcer grow in the neck of the bladder by reason of the rending it you may by putting in the speculum matricis dilate the neck of the womb that fitting remedies may be applyed with the more ease CHAP. XLVIII Of the suppression of the Urine by internall causes BEsides the formentioned causes of suppressed urine or difficulty of making of water there are many other lest any may thinke that the urine is stopt onely by the stone or gravell as Surgeons thinke who in this case presently use diuretickes Therefore the urine is supprest by externall and internall causes The internall causes are clotted bloud tough phlegme warts caruncles bred in the passages of the urine stones and gravell the urine is sometimes supprest because the matter thereof to wit the serous or whayish part of the blood is either consumed by the feavourish heat or carryed other wayes by sweats or a scouring somtimes also the flatulencie there conteined or inflammation arising in the parts made for the urine and the neighbouring members suppresses the urine For the right gut if it be inflamed intercepts the passage of the urine either by a tumour whereby it presseth upon the bladder or by the communication of the inflammation Thus by the default of an ill affected liver the urine is oft times supprest in such as have the dropsie or else by dulnesse or decay of the attractive or separative faculty of the reines by some great distemper or by the default of the animall faculty as in such as are in a phrensie lethargy convulsion apoplexie Besides also a tough and viscide humour falling from the whole body into the passages of the urine obstructs and shuts up the passage Also too long holding the water somtimes causes this affect For when the bladder is distended above measure the passage thereof is drawn together and made more strait hereto may be added that the too great distension of the bladder is a hinderance that it cannot use the expulsive faculty and straiten it selfe about the urine to the exclusion thereof hereto also paine succeeds which presently dejects all the faculties of the part which it seazeth upon Thus of late a certaine young man riding on horsebacke before his Mistresse and therfore not daring to make water when he had great need so to doe had his urine so supprest that returning from his journy home into the city he could by no meanes possible make water In the meane time he had grievous paine in the bottom of his belly and the perinaeum with gripings and a sweatall over his body so that he almost sowned I being called when I had procured him to make water by putting in a hollow Cathaeter and pressing the bottom of his belly whereof he forthwith made two pints I told them that it was not occasioned by the stone which notwithstanding the standers by imagined to bee the occasion of that suppression of urine For thence forward there appeared no signes of the stone in the youth neither was he afterwards troubled with the stopping of his urine CHAP. XLIX A digression concerning the purging of such things as are unprofitable in the whole body by the urine IThink it not amisse to testifie by the following histories the providence of nature in expelling by urine such things as are unprofitable in the whole body Mounsieur Sarret the Kings secretary was wounded in the right arme with a pistoll bullet many and maligne symptomes happened thereupon but principally great inflammations flowing with much sanies and pus or quitture it somtimes happened that without any reason this purulent and sanious effluxe of matter was stayd in the inflammation wherof while we solicitously enquired into the cause wee found both his stooles and water commixed with much purulent filth and this through the whole course of the disease whereof notwithstanding by gods assistance he recovered and remaines whole and sound we observed that as long as his arme flowed with this filthy matter so long were his excrements of the belly and bladder free from the sanious and purulent matter as long on the contrary as the ulcers of the arme were dry so long were the excrements of the guts and bladder sanious and purulent The same accident befell a Gentleman called Mounsieur da la Croix who received a deadly wound with a sword on the left arme though German Chavall and Master Rasse most expert Surgeons and others who together with me had him in cure thought it was not so for this reason because the pus cannot runne so long a way in the body neither if it were so could that bee done without the infection and corruption of the whole masse of blood whilest it flowes through the veines therefore to be more probable that this quantity of filth mixed with excrements and urine flowed by reason of the default of the liver or of some other bowell rather than from the wounded arme I was of a contrary opinion for these following reasons First for that which was apparently seen in the patient for as long as the excrement and urine were free from this purulent matter so long his arme plentifully flowed therewith this on the contrary being dry much purulent matter was voided both by stoole and urine Another was that as our whole body is perspirable so it is also if I may so terme it confluxible The third was an example taken from the glasses which the French terme Monte-vins that is Mount-wines for if a glasse that is full of wine be set under another that is fill'd with water you may see the wine raise it selfe out of the lower vessell to the upper through the midst of the water so the water descend through the
and cholericke vomiting and sweat of the whole body all which doe not surcease before that the stone or gravell shall bee forced downe into the bladder Now vomiting happens in this affect for that the ventricle by reason of its continuity and neighbourhood which it hath with the guts suffers by consent or sympathy For the stomacke is of the same kind or matter as the guts are so that the guts seeme nothing else but a certaine production of the stomacke Therefore if at any time nature endeavour to expell any thing that is troublesome in the kidneyes ureters coats of the guts mesentery pancreas and hypochondryes it causeth a Colicke with pain and vomiting A hot and dry distemper also causeth the Colicke producing a pricking and biting paine by drying the excrements shut up in the guts as also by wasting as it were the radical humours of that place provided for the lubricating of the guts Acride viscide and tough phlegme causeth the same There is also another cause of the Collicke which is not so common to wit the twining of the guts that is when they are so twined folded and doubled that the excrements as it were bound in their knots cannot be expelled as it manifestly happens in the rupture called Enterocele by the falling of the guts into the cod Likewise also wormes generated in the Collicke Gut whilest that they mutually fold or twine themselves up doe also twine the Colon it selfe and fold it with them Also the too long stay of the excrements in the guts whether it shall happen by the peculiar default of the too hot and dry body of the patient or by his diet that is the use of too dry meats or exercises and paines taken in the heate of the sunne or by the greatnesse of businesse the minde being carryed away causeth the Collicke with headache and plenty of vapours flying upwards I remember I once dissected the body of a boy of some twelve yeares old who had his guts folded with many as it were tyes or knots of the restrained too hard dry excrements the which he cast out by his mouth a little before his death which brought him to his end being not helped in time by fitting medicines Now these are the causes of the Collick according to the opinion of the ancient and moderne Physicians of whose signes I judge it not amisse here to treat in particular You shall know the patient is troubled with the stone collick by the paine which is fixed and as it were kept in one place to wit of the kidnies by his former manner of life as if the patient hath formerly voyded stones or gravell together with his urine by the paine of the hips and testicles for the formerly mentioned causes lastly by that the patient casts forth by stoole or urine for that the great laborious endeavour of nature to cast forth the stone which is in the kidnies is propagated by a certaine sympathy like study of the neighbouring parts stirring up the expulsive faculties each to his work The signes of a flatulent collick are a tensive pain such as if the guts were rent or torne in pieces together with a noise or rumbling in the belly The force of the shut up wind is sometimes so great that it rendeth or teareth the guts in sunder no otherwise than a swines bladder too hard blown up Which when it happens the patient dyes with much vomiting because the stomack opprest with wind can conteine nor imbrace no meat The collick which is occasioned by the too long keeping in of the excrements is accompanied with the weight and pain of the belly the tension of the guts headach apparent hardness of the belly the complaint of the patient that he hath not gone to stoole in a long time That which proceeds from a cholerick inflammation yeelds a sense of great heat pulsation in the midst of the belly by reason of the veins and arteries which are in the pancreas and coats of the guts and there are the other signes of a Phlegmon although also this as it were inflammation may arise also from salt acride viscous phlegme which nature can neither expel upwards by vomit nor downewards by stool this sundry times is associated with a difficulty of making water for that when as the right gut is inflamed the bladder is pressed by reason of their society or neighbourhood The collick which proceeds from the contorsion of the guts shews it selfe by the excessive cruelty of the paine arising for that the guts are not in their due site and place and because the excrements by their too long detension acquire a preternaturall heat this is the cause of the death of many such as have Ruptures for that the gut falling down from the naturall place into the Cod being a preternatural place is red oubled kept thereas it were bound whereby the excrements being baked becomming more acridly hot cause inflammation and by raising up flatulencies encrease the distension through all the guts untill at length a deadly Ileos or collick arising they come forth at the mouth For prognosticks it is better to have the paine in the collick to wander up and down than to be fixed it is good also that the excrements are not wholly supprest But the evill signes that here appeare pronounce the affect either difficult or deadly Now these shew that it is deadly intolerable tormenting paine continuall vomiting cold sweat coldnesse of the extreme parts hickiting by reason of the sympathy the stomack hath with the guts a Phrensie by the consent of the braine with the stomacke and oft-times a convulsion by drawing the matter into the nerves But such as have griping and pain about their navil and loines which can neither be helped by medicine nor otherwise it ends in a Dropsie The cure must be diversified according to the variety of the causes for the stone collick is cured by medicines proper to the stone that which is caused by an Enterocele is cured by the onely restoring the gut to its place that which is occasioned by wormes requires medicines fit to kill and cast forth the wormes But that which proceeds from the weaknesse and refrigeration of the guts and stomack is cured by neating and strengthening medicines aswell applyed out-wardly as taken in inwardly by the mouth or otherwaies The beginning of the cure of that which is occasioned by tough flegme and flatulencies is by the mitigation of the paine seeing there is nothing which more dejects the powers than paine To this purpose shall you provide bathes Semicupia fomentations of mallowes marsh-mallowes violet leaves penyroyall fennell Origanum the seeds of time and faenugreek flowers of camomill melilore and other such like which have power to heat dry attenuate and rarifie the skin so to dissipate the wind But all such must be actually hot Also the belly may be anointed with this following ointment
be applyed and the rather if they bee violently plucked off because they by that meanes leave their teeth fastned in the part Now hee which by chance hath swallowed a Horse-leach must bee asked in what part bee feeleth her that is the sense of her sucking For if shee sticke in the top of the Throate or Gullet or in the middest thereof the part shall bee often washed with mustard dissolved in vinegar If shee bee neare the orifice of the ventricle it is fit that the patient by little and little swallow downe oyle with a little vinegar But if shee fasten to the stomacke or the bottome of the ventricle the patient by the plucking of the part shall perceive a certaine sense of sucking the patient will spit bloud and will for feare become melancholicke To force her thence hee shall drinke warme water with oyle but if shee cannot so bee loosed then shall you mixe Aloes therewith or some thing endued with the like bitternesse for shee will by that meanes leave her hold and so bee cast forth by vomit You may perceive this by such as are applyed to the skinne on the externall parts for by the aspersion of bitter things whether they bee full or empty they will forsake their hold Then shall the patient take astringent things which may stoppe the bloud flowing forth of the bitten part such is conserve of Roses with terra sigillata bole armenicke and other more astringent things if need so require For if they shall adhereto some greater branch of some veine or artery it will bee more difficult to stop the flowing bloud But for that not the earth onely but the sea also produceth venemous creatures wee will in like sort treat of them as wee have already done of the other beginning with the Lampron CHAP. XXX Of the Lampron THE Lampron called in Latine Muraena is a sea fish something in shape resembling a Lamprey but shee is bigger and thicker and hath a larger mouth with teeth long sharpe and bending inwards she is of a duskie colour distinguished with whitish spots and of some two cubits length the Ancients had them in great esteem because they yeeld good nourishment and may be kept long alive in pooles or ponds and so taken as the owners please to serve their table as it is sufficiently knowne by the historie of the Roman Crassus Shee by her biting induceth the same symptomes as the viper and it may bee helped by the same meanes Verily the Lampron hath such familiarity with the Viper that leaving her naturall element the sea she leapeth a shoare and seeketh out the Viper in her den to joyne with her in copulation as it is written by AElian and Nicander CHAP. XXXI Of the Draco-marinus or sea-Dragon THE sea-Dragon called by the French Viva for his vivacity and by the English a Viver or as some say a Qua-viver because being taken in fishing and drawne out of the sea shee is said long to survive Her pricks are poysonous but chiefly those that are at the edges of her gils Which is the reason that Cookes cut off their heads before they serve them up to the table and at Roven the fishermen lay them not upon their stalles to sell before they have cut off their heads The wounded part of such as are hurt paines them much with inflammation a feaver sowning gangrene and deadly mortification unlesse it be quickly withstood Not very long agoe the wife of Monsieur Fromaget Secretary of the requests was wounded with a prick of this fish in her middle finger there followed a swelling and rednesse of the part without much paine but perceiving the swelling to encrease being made more wary by the mischance of her neighbour the wife of Monsieur Bargelonne Lievtenant particulier in the Chastelet of Paris who died not long before by the like accident being neglected sent for mee I understanding the cause of her disease laid to her pained finger and her whole hand besides a pultis made of a great Onion roasted under the coales leaven and a little treacle The next day I wished her to dip her whole hand into warme water so to draw forth the poyson then I divided the skin about it with much scarification but onely superficiarily to the gashes I applyed Leaches which by sucking drawing a sufficient quantity of bloud I put thereto treacle dissolved in aqua vitae The next day the swelling was asswaged and the paine eased and within a few daies shee was perfectly well Dioscorides writes that this fish divided in the midst and applyed to the wound will cure it CHAP. XXXII Of the Pastinaca marina or Sting-Ray which some call the Fierce-claw SUch as are stung by a Sting-Ray as Aëtius hath written the place of the wound doth manifestly appeare there ensues thereon lasting paine and the numnesse of the whole body And seeing that it hath a sharpe and firme sting whereby the nerves by the deepnesse of the stroake may be wounded it so happens that some die forthwith their whole bodies suffering convulsions Moreover it wil kil even the very trees into whose roots it is fastned Yet Pliny affirmes that it is good against the paine of the teeth if the gums bee scarified therewith yea and it being made into powder with white hellebore or of it selfe will cause teeth to fall out without any pain or any violence offered to them This fish is good meat the head and taile excepted some of them have two stings othersome but one these stings are sharpe like a Saw with the teeth turned towards their heads Oppianus writes that their stings are more poysonous than the Persians arrowes for the force of the poyson remaineth the fish being dead which will kill not onely living creatures but plants also Fishermen when they catch this fish presently spoile him of his sting lest they should bee hurt therewith But if by chance they bee hurt therewith then take they forth his Liver and lay it to the wound furthermore the fish being burnt and made into powder is the true Antidote of his wound The Sting-Ray lives in muddy places neare the shoare upon the fishes that hee hunteth and catcheth with his sting having the teeth thereof turned towards his head for the same purpose Hee is not unlike a Ray and I have here given you his figure The figure of a Sting-Ray CHAP. XXXIII Of the Lepus marinus or Sea-hare PLINY cals the Sea-hare a masse or deformed peece of flesh Galen saith that it is like a Snaile taken forth of the shell It is exceeding poysonous in the judgement of the Antients wherefore it is not amisse to set downe the description of it left wee might eate it at unawares too earnestly view it or smell thereto as also that we may use it against the poyson thereof it is an inhabitant not only of the Sea but also of Lakes of Sea-water especially such as are muddy
with a little swelling with a knife or lancet so breaking and opening a way for them notwithstanding that a little fluxe of blood will follow by the tension of the gummes of which kind of remedy I have with prosperous and happy successe made tryall in some of mine owne children in the presence of Feureus Altinus and Cortinus Doctors of Physick and Guillemeau the Kings Chirurgian which is much better and more safe than to doe as some nurses doe who taught onely by the instinct of nature with their nailes and scratching breake and teare or rent the childrens gummes The Duke of Nevers had a sonne of eight moneths old which died of late and when wee with the Physitians that were present diligently sought for the cause of his death we could impute it unto nothing else than to the contumacious hardnesse of the gums which was greater than was convenient for a childe of that age for therefore the teeth could not breake forth nor make a passage for themselves to come forth of which our judgement this was the tryall that when we cut his gummes with a knife we found all his teeth appearing as it were in an array ready to come forth which if it had bin done when he lived doubtlesse he might have beene preserved The End of the twenty fourth Booke OF MONSTERS AND PRODIGIES THE TWENTY FIFTH BOOK THE PREFACE WEe call Monsters what things soever are brought forth contrary to the common decree and order of nature So wee terme that infant monstrous which is borne with one arme alone or with two heads But we define Prodigies those things which happen contrary to the whole course of nature that is altogether differing and dissenting from nature as if a woman should bee delivered of a Snake or a Dogge Of the first sort are thought all those in which any of those things which ought and are accustomed to bee according to nature is wanting or doth abound is changed worne covered or defended hurt or not put in his right place for somtimes some are born with more fingers than they should other some but with one finger some with those parts devided which should be joyned others with those parts joyned which should bee devided some are borne with the privityes of both sexes male and female And Aristotle saw a Goate with a horne upon her knee No living creature was ever borne which wanted the Heart but some have beene seene wanting the Spleene others with two Spleenes and some wanting one of the Reines And none have bin known to have wanted the whole Liver although some have bin found that had it not perfect and whole and there have beene those which wanted the Gall when by nature they should have had it and besides it hath beene seene that the Liver contrary to his naturall site hath lien on the left side and the Spleene on the right Some women also have had their privities closed and not perforated the membranous obstacle which they call the Hymen hindering And men are sometimes borne with their fundaments eares noses and the rest of the passages shut and are accounted monstrous nature erring from its entended scope But to conclude those Monsters are thought to portend some ill which are much differing from their nature CHAP. I. Of the cause of Monsters and first of those Monsters which appeare for the glory of God and the punishent of mens wickednesse THere are reckoned up many causes of monsters the first whereof is the glory of God that his immense power may be manifested to those which are ignorant of it by the sending of those things which happen contrary to nature for thus our Saviour Christ answered the Disciples asking whether he or his parents had offended who being born blind received his sight from him that neither he nor his parents had committed any fault so great but this to have happened onely that the glory and majesty of God should be divulged by that miracle and such great workes Another cause is that God may either punish mens wickednesse or shew signes of punishment at hand because parents sometimes lye and joine themselves together without law and measure or luxuriously and beastly or at such times as they ought to forbeare by the command of God and the Church such monstrous horrid and unnaturall births doe happen At Verona Anno Dom. 1254. a mare foaled a colt with the perfect face of a man but all the rest of the body like an horse a little after that the warre betweene the Florentines and Pisans began by which all Italy was in a combustion The figure of a Colt with a mans face About the time that Pope Julius the second raised up all Italy and the greatest part of Christendome against Lewis the twelfth the King of France in the yeere of our Lord 1512. in which yeere upon Easter day neere Ravenna was fought that mortall battell in which the Popes forces were overthrowne a monster was borne in Ravenna having a horne upon the crowne of his head and besides two wings and one foot alone most like to the feet of birds of prey and in the knee thereof an eye the privities of male and female the rest of the body like a man as you may see by the following figure The figure of awinged Monster The third cause is an abundance of seed overflowing matter The fourth the same in too little quantity and deficient The fift the force and efficacy of imagination The sixt the straightnesse of the wombe The seaventh the disorderly site of the party with childe and the position of the parts of the body The eighth a fall straine or stroake especially upon the belly of a woman with child The ninth hereditary diseases or affects by any other accident The tenth the confusion and mingling together of the seed The eleventh the craft and wickednesse of the divell There are some others which are accounted for monsters because they have their originall or essence full of admiration or doe assume a certaine prodigious forme by the craft of some begging companions therefore we will speak briefly of them in their place in this our treatise of monsters CHAP. II. Of monsters caused by too great abundance of seed SEeing wee have already handled the two former and truely finall causes of monsters we must now come to those which are the matereall corporeall and efficient causes taking our beginning from that we call the too great abundance of the matter of seed It is the opinion of those Philosophers which have written of monsters that if at any time a creature bearing one at once as man shall cast forth more seed in copulation than is necessary to the generation of one body it cannot be that onely one should bee begot of all that therefore from thence either two or more must arise whereby it commeth to passe that these are rather judged wonders because they happen seldome and contrary to common custome Superfluous parts
ministered unto them of their owne accord and so came to themselves againe In the doing of all these things Iames Guillemeau Chirurgion unto the King and of Paris and Iohn of Saint Germanes the Apothecary did much helpe and further us In the afternoone that the matter being well begunne might have good successe Iohn Hautie and Lewis Thibaut both most learned Phisitions were sent for unto us with whom we might consult on other things that were to be done They highly commending all things that we had done already thought it very convenient that cordialls should be ministered unto them which by ingendering of laudable humors might not onely generate new spirits but also attenuate and purifie those that were grosse and cloudy in their bodies The rest of our consultation was spent in the enquirie of the cause of so dire a mischance For they sayd that it was no new or strange thing that men may be smothered with the fume and cloudy vapour of burning coales For we reade in the workes of Fulgosius Volateranus and Egnatius that as the Emperour Iovinian travelled in winter time toward Rome he being weary in his journey rested at a Village called Didastanes which divideth Bithynia from Galatia where he lay in a chamber that was newly made and plaistered with lime wherein they burnt many coales for to dry the worke or plaistering that was but as yet greene on the walls or roofe of the chamber Now he dyed the very same night being smothered or strangled with the deadly and poysonous vapour of the burned charcoale in the midst of the night this happened to him in the eighth moneth of his reigne the thirtyeth yeere of his age and on the twentyeth day of August But what neede we to exemplifie this matter by the ancient histories seeing that not many yeeres since three servants dyed in the house of Iohn Big●ne goldsmith who dwelleth at the turning of the bridge of the Change by reason of a fire made of coales in a close chamber without a chimney where they lay And as concerning the causes these were alleaged Many were of opinion that it happened by the default of the vapour proceeding from the burned coales which being in a place voyd of all ayre or wind inferres such like accidents as the vapour of muste or new wine doth that is to say paine and giddinesse of the head For both these kindes of vapour besides that they are crude like unto those things whereof they come can also very suddainely obstruct the originall of the Nerves and so cause a convulsion by reason of the grossnesse of their substance For so Hippocrat●s writing of those accidents that happen by the vapour of new wine speaketh If any man being drunken doe suddainely become speechlesse and hath a convulsion he dyeth unlesse he have a feaver therewithall or if he recover not his speech againe when his drunkennesse is over Even on the same manner the vapour of the coales assaulting the braine caused them to be speechlesse unmoveable and voyde of all sense and had dyed shortly unlesse by ministring and applying warme medicines into the mouth and to the nosethrells the grossnesse of the vapour had beene attenuated and the expulsive faculties mooved or provoked to expell all those things that were noysome and also although at the first sight the Lungs appeared to be greeved more than all the other parts by reason that they drew the maligne vapour into the body yet when you consider them well it will manifestly appeare that they are not greeved unlesse it be by the simpathy or affinity that they have with the braine when it is very greevously afflicted The proofe hereof is because presently after there followeth an interception or defect of the voyce sense and motion which accidents could not bee unlesse the beginning or originall of the nerves were intercepted or letted from performing its function being burthened by some matter contrary to nature And even as those that have an apoplexie doe not dye but for want of respiration yet without any offence of the Lungs even so these two young mens deathes were at hand by reason that their respiration or breathing was in a manner altogether intercepted not through any default of the Lungs but of the braine and nerves distributing sence and motion to the whole body and especially to the instruments of respiration Others contrariwise contended and sayd that there was no default in the braine but conjectured the interception of the vitall spirits letted or hindered from going up unto the braine from the heart by reason that the passages of the Lungs were stopped to be the occasion that sufficient matter could not be afforded for to perserve and feed the animall spirit Which was the cause that those young men were in danger of death for want of respiration without the which there can be no life For the heart being in such a case cannot deliver it selfe from the fuliginous vapour that encompasseth it by reason that the Lungs are obstructed by the grossnesse of the vapour of the coales whereby inspiration cannot well bee made for it is made by the compassing ayre drawne into our bodyes but the ayre that compasseth us doth that which nature endeavoureth to doe by inspiration for it moderateth the heate of the heart and therefore it ought to bee endued with foure qualities The first is that the quantity that is drawne into the body bee sufficient The second is that it be cold or temperate in quantity The third is that it be of a thinne and meane consistence The fourth is that it be of a gentle and benigne substance But these foure conditions were wanting in the ayre which these two young men drew into their bodyes being in a close chamber For first it was little in quantity by reason that small quantity that was contained in that little close chamber was partly consumed by the fire of coales no otherwise than the ayre that is conteined in a cupping glasse is consumed in a moment by the flame so soone as it is kindled Furthermore it was neither cold nor temperate but as it were enflamed with the burning fire of coales Thirdly it was more grosse in consistence than it should bee by reason of the admixtion of the grosser vapour of the coales for the nature of the ayre is so that it may bee soone altered and will very quickly receive the formes and impressions of those substances that are about it Lastly it was noysome and hurtfull in substance and altogether offensive to the aiery substance of our bodies For Charcoale are made of greene wood burnt in pits under ground and then extinguished with their owne fume or smoake as all Colliers can tell These were the opinions of most learned men although they were not altogether agreeable one unto another yet both of them depended on their proper reasons For this at least is manifest that those passages which are common to the breast and braine were
Now I beleeve it was per Diapedesin or Anastomosin that is to say by the apertion of the mouthes of the vessells or by their porosities the poore little wrastler was buryed I tooke leave of Messieurs de Rohan de Laval and Estamps Monsieur de Rohan gave mee a present of fifty double duckets and an ambling horse and Monsieur de Laval another for my man and Monsieur de Estamps a Diamond of thirty Crownes and so I returned to my house at Paris The Voyage of Parpignan 1543. A Little while after Monsieur de Rohan tooke me with him poste to the campe of Parpignan being there the enemy made a Sally forth and came and inclosed three peeces of our Artillery where they were beaten back to the gates of the Citty which was not done without hurting and killing many and amongst the rest de Briss●c who was then chiefe master of the Artillery received a musket shot upon the shoulder returning to his Tent all the others that were hurt followed him hoping to be drest by the Chirurgions that ought to dresse them Being come to his Tent and layd on his bed the bullet was searched for by three or foure the most expert Chirurgions of the Army who could not finde it but sayd it was entred into his body In the end hee called for me to see if I were more skilfull than them because he had knowne me before in Piedmount by and by I made him rise from his bed and prayed him to put his body into that posture as it was then when hee received his hurt which he did taking a javelin betweene his hands as he held the Pike in the skirmish I put my hand about the wound and found the bullet in the flesh making a little tumor under the Omoplate having found it I shewed them the place where it was and it was taken out by Master Nicholas Lavernaut Chirurgion to Monsieur the Dolphin who was the Kings Lievtenant in that army yet notwithstanding the honour remained to me for finding of it I saw one thing of great remark which is this that a souldier in my presence gave to one of his fellowes a stroake with an Halbard upon the head penetrating even to the left ventricle of the braine without falling to the ground Hee that strooke him said he had heard that he had cheated at Dice and that he had drawne a great summe of money and that it was his custome to cheate I was called to dresse him which I did as it were for the last knowing well that he would quickly die having drest him he returned all alone to his lodging which was at least two hundred paces distant I bid one of his companions send for a Priest to dispose of the affaires of his soule he helpt him to one who stayd with him to the last gaspe The next day the patient sent for mee by his shee friend in a boyes apparell to come to dresse him which I would not doe fearing hee should die under my hands and to put it off I sayd I must not take off the dressing till the third day by reason hee would die though hee were never touched The third day hee came staggering and found me in my Tent accompanied with his wench and prayed mee most affectionately to dresse him And shewed me a purse wherein he had an hundred or sixscore peeces of Gold and that he would content me to my desire for all that yet notwithstanding I left not off to deferre the taking off his dressing fearing least hee should die at the same instant Certaine Gentlemen desired me to goe dresse him which I did at their request but in dressing him he died under my hands in a Convulsion Now this Priest accompanied him untill death who seazed upon the purse for feare least another should take it saying hee would say Masses for his soule Moreover hee furnisht himselfe with his cloathes and with all the rest of his things I have recited this History as a monstrous thing that the Souldier fell not to ground when he had received this great stroake and was in good senses even till death Soone after the Campe was broken for divers causes the one because we were advertized that foure companies of Spaniards were entred into Parpignam the other that the Plague begun much in our Campe and it was told us by the people of the countrey that shortly there would bee a great overflowing of the Sea which might drowne us all and the presage which they had was a very great winde from Sea which arose in such manner that there remained not one Tent which was not broken and overthrowne for all the strength and diligence that could be given and the Kitchins being all uncovered the winde raised so the dust and sand which salted and poudred our meate in such sort that wee could not eate it so that wee were constrained to boile it in pots and other vessells well covered Now we did not uncampe our selves in so good time but that there were many Carts and Carters Mules and Mule drivers drowned in the Sea with great losse of baggage The Campe broken I returned to Paris The voyage to Landresy 1544. KIng Francis raised a great Army to victuall Landresy on the other side the Emperour had no lesse people yea much more that is to say eighteene thousand Germans tenne thousand Spaniards sixe thousand Wallons tenne thousand English and a matter of thirteene or foureteene thousand Horse I saw the two Armies neare one another within Canon shot and it was thought they would never part without giving battaile There were some certaine foolish Gentlemen who would approach the enemies Campe certaine shot was made at them and some dyed at the place others had their Legges or Armes carried away The King having done what hee desired which was to revictuall Landresy retired himselfe with his Army to Guise which was the day after All Saints one thousand five hundred forty foure and from thence I returned to Paris The Voyage of Boulogne 1545. A Little while after we went to Boulogne where the English seeing our Army left the Forts which they had that is to say Moulambers the little Paradise Monplaisir the fort of Shatillon the Portet the Fort Dardelot One day going through the Campe to dresse my hurt people the enemies who were in the Tower of Order shot off a peece of Ordinance thinking to kill two horsemen which stayd to talke one with another It happened that the Bullet passed very neare one of them which threw him to the ground and t' was thought the said Bullet had toucht him which it did not at all but onely the winde of the said Bullet in the midst of his coate which went with such a force that all the outward part of the Thigh became blacke and blew and had muchadoe to stand I drest him and made him divers Scarifications to evacuate the contused blood which the winde of the said Bullet
