A02758	Klinike, or The diet of the diseased· Divided into three bookes. VVherein is set downe at length the whole matter and nature of diet for those in health, but especially for the sicke; the aire, and other elements; meat and drinke, with divers other things; various controversies concerning this subject are discussed: besides many pleasant practicall and historicall relations, both of the authours owne and other mens, &c. as by the argument of each booke, the contents of the chapters, and a large table, may easily appeare. Colellected [sic] as well out of the writings of ancient philosophers, Greeke, Latine, and Arabian, and other moderne writers; as out of divers other authours. Newly published by Iames Hart, Doctor in Physicke.	Hart, James, of Northampton.	1633 (1633)	STC 12888; ESTC S119800	647,313	474

oftentimes deprive themselves even of the use of their senses making themselves by this meanes as senselesse as blocks and contrary to the common course of nature alwaies carefull and sollicitous to preserve it selfe either rush upon their owne ruine or by their in discreet carriage bring ruine upon themselves And of this I need not I thinke produce any instances there be few if any that cannot instance in some particulars of his owne knowledge And as for diseases of the body procured thereby they are not a few as namely the Apoplexy Epilepsie or falling sicknesse Incubus or nightmare Palsie giddinesse lethargy and the like soporiferous diseases besides sudden death losse of memory and understanding red and watery eyes a corny face all beset with rubies and carbuncles accompanied with a copper nose Besides it is often after attended with rottennesse and roughnesse of teeth a stinking breath a stutting and stammering tongue rotten lungs filthy and stinking belching vomitings Fevers inflammations defluxions on the joints procuring gouts of all sorts Dropsies of all kindes the stone strangury with many more yea to speake in a word it may prove a meanes of most diseases which befall mankind And besides all these how many dangers from without attend a drunken man which without one minute of an houres time to repent him of his former wicked course often suddenly send him into another world Moreover it is not to be omitted that drunkennesse overthroweth also a mans temporall estate lavishly and prodigally wasting that substance in a very short space which had by honest industry and paines beene a long time a purchasing by which meanes many times besides a crasy and rotten body they pull at length poverty not upon themselves alone but upon their wives children and posterity also leaving likewise a many beggers behind them to be a burden to the common-wealth besides that in this is also transgressed the Apostles rule if any man provide not for his owne especially those of his owne house he hath denied the faith and is worse than an Infidell Besides they prove also in this pernitious plagues to a common-wealth by mis-spending and wasting so much graine in drinke as might feed a number of poore people Against this beastly sinne a many worthy writers both Christian and Heathen have much inveighed And the heathen Poets have not failed to play their parts Vino forma perit vine corrumpitur atas By wine is spoiled quite the beauty of the face By wine our life corrupted is it cutteth short our race And againe another describeth some effects following this vice Consequitur gravitas membrorum praepediuntur Crura vacillanti tardescit lingua madet mens Nant Oculi clamor singultus jurgia gliscunt Hence follow the vnweldinesse and weight of members weake The shaking thighes are hindered the tongue is slow to speake The mind is moist the eyes doe swimme clamors and noise increase Deepe sighes and sobs chidings and brawles from such do never cease Heare yet another speake to the same purpose Quum bibitur concha quum jam vertigine tectum Ambulat geminis exurgit mensa lucernis When men are whitled with their cups when now their giddy braine Thinke that the house doth walke about and judge one candle twaine It were no difficult matter for me to produce a multitude of such invectives against this vice out of these and other Poets but that I must husband my time It is therefore worth the observing how carefull many of the heathens were not onely in shunning themselves this vice but by wholesome lawes suppressing the spreading of it abroad into the common-wealth And no small commendation was it for that great and potent Emperour Augustus Caesar that during all the time of his warres he never drunke above thrice at a meale On the contrary wee read of that great Conqueror of the then knowne world Alexander the great unconquerable by all the Persian forces was notwithstanding at length overcome with their wine which made him imbrue his hands in the blood of his dearest friends And by divine punition in the aprile of his age by a draught from the hands of Proteas ended his daies The like it were easie for mee to instance in many others of high and eminent ranke as likewise of a multitude of others of inferiour degree if time would permit mee Eusebius Plato Aristole and Galen greatly commend the lawes of the Carthaginians whereby was forbidden any man during the warres to drinke any thing but water Among the Indians it was not lawfull at any time to be drunke And among the Persians on that day onely when they sacrificed to the Sunne it was lawfull for them to be drunke and to dance after the Persian manner I have already in the chapter of Gluttony made mention of a Scottish King that made a law that the drunkard should be put to death Now as this swinish sinne is odious to all ages sexes and conditions so it is more odious in some than in others And therefore wine was forbidden youth untill certaine yeeres and then permitted with moderation And women were forbiden wine among the Massilians and Milesians and at this time is not usuall for women in France to drinke wine before they be married but water onely And among the Romans this same law against womens drinking of wine was in force To this purpose it is very memorable which is recorded that one Ignatius Melentius a Roman killed his owne wife for being drunke the which fact of his was so farre from being punished that there was not so much as one to accuse him for the same every one accounting her justly punished for exceeding the bounds of sobrietie Now as this sinne of drunkennesse is unseemely and odious in all ages and degrees of the laity so it is yet farre more odious in a Church-man who as a light ought by his life and conversation so shine before others that men seing his good workes holy life and good conversation may glorifie our heavenly Father This being well considered of the antient Fathers of the Church was the occasion of so many canons and constitutions against this so loathsome sinne in the Clergie And that this same sinne reigned even among the Clergy of the Iewes may by some places of Scripture appeare God forbad Aaron and the other Priests under the paine of death when they were to offer up sacrifice to drinke either wine or strong drinke The Nazarites were also all forbidden wine and strong drinke The Apostle Paul reckoning up the qualities wherewith a Minister of the Word ought to be indued among the rest reckoneth up this that hee must not be given to wine nor strong drink And wee see that holy Timothy was so observant of sobriety and so fearefull to fall into this sinne that hee indangered his owne health and needed by the Apostle to be put in minde to

of excrements Now naturall drinesse may be prevented by such things as moisten much The wasting of our triple substance may be prevented by good ayre meat and drinke of a good and laudable quality engendring but little excrementitious matter and if notwithstanding by reason of their condition or quality they shall chance to ingender any excrement they may either naturally or else by artificiall meanes be voided out And therefore conclude they by this dieteticall art may the naturall causes of fatall death be declined But this is an uncontrolled truth Contra vim mortis non est medicamen in hortis It is appointed for all men to dye and then commeth in iudgement saith the Oracle that cannot lie True 't is and cannot be denied that by vertue of a laudable diet the life of man may be prolonged to an hundred or an hundred and twenty yeeres as hath beene published by some of our Authors but for ever to be perpetuated is impossible and that both by reason of the materiall and the efficient cause The matter is either first or second the first matter by reason it hath adjoyned privation a maligne principle therefore cannot alwaies continue the same The second matter is of the elements whereof the body of man is composed the which howsoever it conteineth in it the substance of the elements well united and compacted together yet can their disagreeing qualities never so well be composed but some discord and disagreement will arise which is the cause of dissolution of the whole frame The efficient cause is either remote or neerer the remote is God himselfe who hath placed severall and contrary motions in the heavens one from the East to the West and is once every day accomplished Another againe from the West to the East which are at great length to be found in the writings of our learned Astronomers Now if God would have made the world to continue for ever faith Plato he would never have placed these contrary motions in the heavens because identity and unity is the cause of continuance as contrariety the beginning of destruction The neerer efficient cause is our naturall heat which by little and little destroyes our naturall and radicall moisture the which once failing death undoubtedly followeth And howsoever by the use of aliments it be in some sort repaired yet this devouring heat getteth daily ground of it till at length it giveth it the foyle concerning which more may be seene in the workes of the worthy Plato It hath then sufficiently and plainely appeared that the life of man by meanes of a good and laudable diet may be prolonged and diseases prevented howsoever death is unavoidable But then here one may aske what is the ordinary period whereunto the life of man by meanes of art may be prolonged Our ordinary Authours as wee have said assigne 100 or 120 but wee have a certaine sort of people who in shew would seeme to transcend vulgar understanding and tell us strange things of the prolongation of mans life for many yeeres farre beyond this above-mentioned period and that by meanes of certaine medicines made of metalls of gold especially and these be Paracelsus and his followers And although this great miracle-monger as his foolish followers would make him died not without tormenting arthriticall paines many times notwithstanding all his secrets before ever hee atteined the 60th yeere of his age yet will not their folly depart from them if they were braied in a morter affirming him yet to live in his grave by vertue of aurum potabile writing great voluminous bookes and inditing many profitable precepts to his disciples I hope the Printers shall not want worke when they are ready But Paracelsus tells us yet stranger tales for I doubt the reader will account them for such of attracting not onely life I meane strength and vigor from a young man but relateh of one who drew learning and knowledge from another yea that from any learned man he met and kept company with hee could easily by vertue of his strong imagination attract and draw unto himselfe the others wit and learning The same Author and his expositor tell us strange things of the long life of some particular persons where is likewise to be observed the great confusion he useth as in all his writings so in this particular where sometimes hee mentioneth mortall men as the Patriarches and others and againe confounds this narration with a discourse of immortall spirits who are neither to be confined with in his 1000. nor yet 1200 yeeres And is it not a thing ridiculous now in these later times to extend the life of man-kinde to 1000 900 or at the least to 600 yeeres And besides may it not easily to an indifferent understanding appeare how ridiculous this opinion is that Adam and the rest of the old Patriarches lived so long by vertue of the Philosophers stone And what then became of this so rare medicine when holy Iacob complained that few and evill were the daies of his pilgrimage And how came it to passe that Abraham and Sarah lived then so short a while That Isaacs eyes were dimme Did their forefathers envie them such a medicine all Arts and Sciences were transmitted from the antient Patriarches to posterity and were they so envious as to conceale from them so great a good If these prattlers could by their owne experience make this appeare there might be some colour for us to beleeve they had knowne this Art and concealed it from their successors But the contrary hath already appeared whatsoever they prate of one Artephius who by meanes of his wisdome as they say lived 1000 yeeres But now it may be some will here aske mee the question whether I am not of opinon that mens ages now daily decline the world waxing old and some holding that the Sunne now by that reason to wit of the age of the world draweth neere the earth as having more need now in this old age of a greater supply of warmth then heretofore But as concerning this subject because it hath beene of set purpose in a large volume handled at great length I shall neede to say the lesse yet something I must say concerning this subject now in hand I meane the life of man If this assertion were of an infallible truth that the age of mankinde had proportionably still declined then had the period of mans longest life beene by this time comprehended within a very small number of yeeres But the contrary of this we see by daily experience confirmed that in many places of the world yea and in most men live as long as in antient times I meane after the times of our first forefathers the old Patriarches This caution I would withall to be put in that in our comparison with antiquity we must alwaies put in this proviso caeteris paribus making the cases both alike As they lived a sober and

best indevours howsoever the disease were not of it selfe incurable And sometimes againe some disease howsoever in it selfe curable yet may sometimes be accompanied with such terrible and dangerous accidents and signes as doe usually accompany such as are shortly to be arrested by sergeant death and yet after the Physitians prognosticke the patient may vnexpectedly recouer as sometimes hath beene seene Now if our Empericke or ignorant Physitian bee called to the former of the two the patients strength persisting and no rub nor let comming in his way the coast being cleare his remedies perhaps not so pertinent and appropriat for the patient yet may this sicke party recover under his hand yea and if he should be yet called to the latter of the two by the skilfull Physitian now given over to a desperate Prognosticke and shall boldly undertake the cure of such a person promising faire and boldly as is the common custome of such people although he administer nothing to the purpose yea rather perhaps that which is quite contrary to the right cure as commeth most commonly to passe howsoever seldome by watchfull eyes observed and this Patient now unexpectedly strength and vigor of body perhaps blowing away all the former feares of evill accidents contrary to the learned Physitians prognostick recover will not the vulgar here admire magnifie and extoll the casuall event of this new Doctor duns setting him no lower than on the top of the pinnacle of fames Temple The other againe how skilfull soever in his profession and able artist yet shall be traduced by virulent and malignant tongues and often esteemed a Physitian of no account And yet for all this neither was the former the honester man but still an ignorant asse and a duns Sifueris pridem remanebis asinus idem Neither yet is the other the more ignorant or unsufficient nor will bee otherwise accounted of among the learned and better understanding sort Sometimes againe it may so come to passe that such an ignorant Empiricke may at the first be called to such a patient as we last mentioned and out of an impudent temeritie howsoever the danger to a judicious eye may not seeme small without any ground of Art or rule in reason at randome boldly promise the patient speedy recovery and for this purpose still after his Empiricall manner administer such medicines as his shallow and ignorant capacitie is able to reach unto and perhaps at length attaine to the height of his hopes yet shal I still avouch that this is but a casuall cure not proceeding from any skillfull sufficiency or right judgement and therefore not to be trusted to And if but an ordinary artist should with a watchfull eye diligently and narrowly observe the ordinary proceeding of such an Aesculapius he should observe him often where dangers are not so easily espied and to none but a judicious understanding obvious to sooth up his deluded patient with the saying of old Agag Surely the bitternesse of death is past when notwithstanding this grim sergeant ceizes on the prisoner without baile or main price And I deny not but often in an ordinary and common disease accompanied with strength of body without the acquaintance of any troublesome accidents such a counterfeit masked Physitian may proceed without detection of error howbeit if any storme of evill accidents arise his ignorance is to the more understanding eye easily discovered howsoever to more vulgar capacities perhaps scarcely discernible As in a calme an ignorant Pilot will make as faire a flourish on the water as a more skilfull and understanding but in a storme is the true sufficiency of the skilful Pilot best discerned Even so it fareth often with the unskilfull practitioner who in a secure and calme disease as I may call it carrieth all faire before him and howbeit never without failings easie by the judicious and understanding to be detected yet are they then to the eye most conspicuous when dangerous and intricate accidents doe appeare whereas the wise and learned Physitian proceedeth still in a rationall method and manner making use both of right reason and ordinary experience and accommodating them to severall occasions and circumstances and with the wise man forseeing the danger remedieth also all sudden accidents which the other not endued with that foreseeing providence nor skill and ability in his profession by reason of his want of education in the liberall arts and sciences especially this of Physicke is neverable in that manner as he ought to effect and bring to passe Besides it is yet a thing very considerable into what great danger people doe precipitate themselues who fall into such ignorant Physitians hands who worke thus by hap hazard and play as it were at fast and loose with mens lives Againe sometimes yea and that very often the learned and judicious Physitian is sent for to the patient now irrecoverably sicke of some desperate disease whereof hee shortly after dieth The honest artist here doth his best indevor both by prescription of orderly diet and such physicall meanes as in his understanding he thinketh fit to oppugne the contumacie of the rebellious disease But the enemie proveth too strong and of greater power than all his provision is able to overcome and the patient at length by reason of that uncontrollable law of mortality succumbeth under the burden of fatall necessity It may be also he was called too late and withall the nicity and morosity of the patient the neglect and carelessenesse of the assistants might prove a great hinderance to the hopefull successe of the cure The ignorant againe called vnto such a patient farre differing in his manner of proceeding as not furnished with so good provision or if furnished yet falling far short of the former Physitian in the dexterity of the right application of the remedies according to the severall circumstances in such cases requisite the patient likewise dieth Now the event is here the same with the former the patient at length paying that debt which all the sonnes of Adam owe. Now who seeth not that will not shut his eyes that he cannot see in the noone-tide of the day the divers proceeding of them both howsoever the event and issue be all one And the honest learned and diligent Physitian deserveth no lesse commendation when the patient dieth than when he liveth his care and paines being then the greater and for this same cause the Germans in danger of death having relation to the Physitians extraordinary paines double his fees And yet our ordinary sort of people for the most part if the patient dye conceive the meanlier of the Physitian and which is yet more grosse and absurd they are so farre from having that due and high esteeme of him as they ought that on the contrary they often howbeit unjustly impute to him the cause of the patients miscarrying And this befalleth oftner the skillfull and learned Physitian than the ignorant Empiricke and that

Of milk whey butter cheese and severall sorts of possets usefull for the sick and something also concerning the use of emulsions or almond mikes And lastly of the several sorts of exercise usefull in sicknes and in health CHAP. I. Of the diet of the diseased in generall something the utility and profit thereof Of the aire in particular and how to bee corrected in times of sickenesse and what fewell is the best WHat hath been hithero handled hath beene chiefly in regard of that which now hereafter ensueth to wit the Diet of the Diseased which is the principall end I at the first aimed at And I cannot sufficiently wonder this being a worke so profitable so necessary and usefull for all sorts of people that it hath beene hitherto so long neglected And so much the more am I hereat amazed in that so many both antient and late writers have so copiously handled the diet of healthfull people yea even here among our our selves some such tractats have beene published in our vulgar tongue Among the antients this part of Physicke hath scarce by any of set purpose been touched but scatteringly here and there some few things have been said concerning this subject Hippocrates is the first we read of that ever set upon this businesse and wrote some thing concerning the diet of acute diseases against the Guidian Physitians of his time above 2000. yeeres agoe and which differed not a little from the diet used in our daies And besides his witing is so short and succinct after his Laconicke manner that they are not obvious to every vulgar understanding Since his time I know not any that hath published any tractat concerning this subject excepting onely one Brudus a Portugall by nation who hath written but slenderly of the diet to bee used in fevers And yet we read the ancients were so carefull in the observation of diet that among the Locrians it was death without the Physitians prescription to drinke a draught of wine Alexander the great commanded to put to death his Physitian Glaucias for allowing his favorite Hephaestion to drinke too much or as some will have it that seeing him drinke wine abundantly he did not inhibite or hinder him Among the Aegyptians it was strictly commanded they should fast till the fourth day Since therefore this part of Physicke concerning the diet of the diseased is so much neglected what marveile if diseases prove so fierce and furious And there is no remedie so effectuall saith Galen which can produce the expected effect if either not furthered by a due and convenient diet or at least not hindered by disorder And therefore it is the opinion of the same Author in another place that people of inferior ranke and smaller meanes are often easilier and sooner cured than many of greater eminency and ability and that by reason of their willingnesse to be ordered by the Physitians presciption whereas the richer sort often oppose them desiring commonly to be cured with slight and triviall medicines not able to expell so strong an enemy And sometimes this is againe occasioned saith he by the assentation and indulgence of the Physitian who will give them drinke as much as they desire let them drinke wine when they demand it and suffer them to doe whatsoever they list and finally in every thing carry themselves in a slavish maner towards their patients quite contrary to that which becommeth such as are descended of Aesculapius who ought to command his patients as a Generall of an army commandeth his souldiers or a King his subjects It is moreover to be observed that among the antients the office of the Physitian was divided into three parts and by consequence there were three sorts of Physitians The first were such as assisted the sick observing all their actions and seeing them observe the diet and other things prescribed by the chiefe Physitians called Architectonici answerable to our rationall Physitians when they came at their accustomed houres to visit them The third sort were called Pepaedeumeni who taught this art in the schooles and brought up others in the same profession to which are answerable the Doctors of the chaire in our Vniversities Now such as assisted the sicke by reason they sate by their bedsides were called Clinici and from thence this part of physicke handling the diet of the diseased was also called Clinice The two later sorts of Physitians wee have here in our countries but with the first sort wee are not acquainted And in truth this is a great defect and the prejudice thereby redounding to the publike not small for as much as this charge is most commonly committed to ignorant women with us called nurses a people for the most part so wilfull and wise in their owne eyes and so selfe-conceited that in stead of furthering the Physitian in his course by keeping the patient strictly to his prescription they are often the readiest to overthrow whatsoever they ordaine unlesse it please them very well And many other women also the judicious discrete and better bred I alwaies except who take chiefely this charge upon them are much of the same stamp And this was the reason why that famous Celsus wished an able and understanding Physitian never to be farre from his patient Of this same diet of the diseased my purpose is with the aid of the almighty to discourse Now howsoever the matter of this diet be the same with that of healthfull people yet the manner of preparation use and other circumstances doe not a little differ as hereafter shall more plainly appeare And first I will begin with the aire As then the aire is that elemenr without the which in health the life man of cannot subsist and a sweet pure temperate aire a great meanes to preserve health so is the aire endued with the same laudable qualities a great means to further the recovery of health already lost In sicknesse therefore it is a matter of no small consequence how the aire is ordered Now as it will not of any be denied but that the best aire is to be made choice of so againe all are not able to change their owne naturall aire some for want of ability and some in regard of the nature of the disease In acute diseases Fevers I meane and such diseases as have Fevers for their continuall attendants as Pleuresies Squinancies c. it is not safe to transport the sicke In chronicall and diseases of longer continuance as dropsies consumptions c. thou maiest be bolder The aire then is in a double respect to be considered either as the common ambient or as it is included within some particular roomes The aire as the common ambient which is of a laudable qualitie neither too cold and piercing nor too hot and foggy if it be possible and thy disease will permit is to be made choice of Now the
