time the Gout is most chiefly excited and then again in the Autumn by reason of the motion and change of the Humors that happeneth at that time And the truth is the Gout is wont in the Spring time most especially to infest the party because that the humors that have been al the Winter long heaping up are wont then to be poured abroad and moved up and down as Lucian telleth us in most elegant Verses making a description thereof in his Tragopodagra And the very same may likewise be somtimes effected by other distempers of the Air and like as the moist Constitution of the Air doth otherwise produce Catarrhs and Fluxes so it likewise oftentimes causeth the Gout And without doubt that Epidemical Gout of which out of Athenaeus we shal anon in the fift Question make mention was at first produced by some peculiar Constitution of the Air. And moreover the Course of Dyet that is observed doth make very much for the generating of the Gout and especially the drinking of strong Wines by which alone many have attracted the Gout unto themselves as Quintus Serenus writeth of Ennius And indeed there is no one thing that is more offensive and hurtful unto persons that are troubled with the Gout than the drinking of Wine as we find it to be true by common experience For there is nothing that obtaineth more of that Tartarous matter or call it what you please that is so apt and fit to generate the Gout than Wine Which matter although as we said a little before it may in some stronger bodies be separated yet nevertheless those that find themselves subject to the Gout having but weak and infirm bowels have no reason after the example of other insatiable Wine-drinkers to indulge themselves any liberty in the drinking of Wine but it is far more fit for them to abstain from it And so on the contrary many have been freed from the Gout by their abstaining from Wine The gout cured by abstinence from Wine And Trincavel in his twelfth Book and second Chapter of the way of Curing the several parts of Mans Body writeth that he knew a very aged Physitian at Venice who having been exceedingly troubled with the Gout al his life long even unto his old Age at length by abstaining from Wine for five yeers only he came to be so freed from all those troublesom and painful fits that attend the Gout that he was ever after even to the very last of his old Age and to the hour of his death altogether freed from these pains And Franciscus Alexander in Descriptione Diacorallii writeth likewise that one Francis Pechius a man fifty yeers of age and troubled with the Gout was cast into Prison by a certain Marquess and there kept twenty yeers and that he was ever after this freed from the Gout And Solenander also in his 5. Sect. Consil 1. relateth of a certain Widdow a Spaniard both that having omitted and left off the use of Wine which yet notwithstanding she had but very sparingly made use of after the custom of her Country and alwaies diluting it with Water she was never more after that troubled with the Gout And there are many other such like known Histories of them that have either been cast into Prison or else have been reduced unto poverty and so have of necessity abstained from Wine and thereby been freed from the Gout To wit whereas the next and most immediate Cause of the Gout as we likewise told ye before is some certain thing that hath as it were the Nature of a Mineral and this altogether unfit for the nourishing of the body such like as is to be found in al kind of Earths but yet in some more in some less the Vine attracteth it more powerfully than other Plants and that this is so appeareth even from that Tartar which is to be found more abundantly in the Vine than in any other Plant and in that Vines wil grow and thrive in those places wherein other Plants wil not prosper as not having aliment enough the Vines contenting themselves in a manner only with that very salt of the Earth which afterward together with the Wine although variously changed is derived into Mans body and being there heaped up it affordeth matter unto the Gout And yet notwithstanding there are likewise some kind of Meats and Drinks that make very much for the breeding of the Gout and there are somtimes Waters to be found that generate the Gout and in those places where the Gout is Epidemical not only the rich that drink Wine but the poor also that drink Water are afflicted with the Gout And so likewise Julius Alexandrinus writeth in his fifteenth Book of things that are wholsom and sixt chapter that he knew a certain person troubled with the Gout in whom by the eating of Carps and Breams the Gout was perpetually bred So that he could when he listed by this means bring the Gout upon himself And moreover The gout caused by the eating of Carps Wholsom Wines Wines they are not al of them of one and the same kind For some of them proceed from a sandy Earth and contain less of this Tartarous matter And such are those Wines that grow at Jassen a Town hard by called Gorubergensian Wines which although that they be drunk in great abundance by the Inhabitants of that place yet I never heard of any of them that was there troubled with the Gout And such Wines as these are likewise to be found in many other places Wines uxwholsom But on the contrary those Wines that grow in an Earth that is fat muddy clayish stony and that hath in it a Mineral Marl gravel stones or any thing else that is Mineral mingled with it are very apt and ready to generate the Gout and such are the Wines of Moravia Bohemia Hungary and most of the Wines of Austria And although that the Wines that do not generate the Gout leave oftentimes in the Vessel more Tartar than those Wines that do indeed produce the Gout yea and if they be distilled there is likewise more of the said Tartar found in them than there is in these like as at Vratislavia as that eminent and famous Physitian Doctor Doringius wrote unto me of twenty four measures of Renish Wine there were found almost three ounces of Tartar whereas in the distillation of as many Measures of the Tocavian Wine that is accounted the strongest of al the Hungarian Wines there were scarcely two drams of Tartar to be found yet nevertheless al this maketh nothing against what we have said For those Wines have that Salt or Tartar superficially only as I may so say and in a thick manner mingled together with them or that I may speak with the Chymists they have the Salt as yet fixed but these have a volatile Salt or Tartar most exactly mingled with them insomuch that this Salt and Tartar is in a manner made spiritual whereupon
