moreover_o restless_a in_o this_o extraordinary_a heat_n there_o be_v a_o less_o secretion_n of_o spittle_n and_o that_o which_o be_v separate_v be_v immediate_o exhale_a by_o this_o unnatural_a heat_n and_o therefore_o the_o tongue_n and_o all_o that_o neighbourhood_n be_v very_o dry_a the_o sense_n dry_a of_o thirst_n be_v feel_v but_o because_o of_o this_o dryness_n and_o the_o particular_a contexture_n of_o the_o tongue_n which_o have_v its_o fibre_n run_v across_o in_o its_o composition_n rough_a these_o fibre_n rise_v stare_v be_v stiff_a and_o rough_a and_o appear_v to_o our_o touch_n as_o if_o we_o run_v our_o finger_n over_o a_o grater_n so_o soon_o as_o it_o be_v deprive_v of_o its_o humidity_n and_o while_o the_o fibre_n and_o blood_n vessel_n stare_v thus_o they_o can_v be_v easy_o contract_v and_o so_o the_o part_n of_o the_o blood_n that_o be_v dry_a can_v move_v but_o stagnate_n under_o the_o surface_n of_o the_o tongue_n while_o its_o more_o fluid_a part_n be_v press_v forward_o and_o the_o part_n of_o the_o blood_n that_o be_v thus_o stop_v be_v of_o a_o high_a red_a colour_n appear_v very_o easy_o black_a to_o be_v black_a and_o a_o little_a inflame_v and_o if_o this_o heat_n increase_v natural_o or_o by_o art_n it_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o blood_n will_v be_v mighty_o rarify_v and_o flow_v through_o the_o lung_n in_o this_o great_a and_o rarify_v quantity_n it_o will_v press_v they_o violent_o on_o all_o side_n so_o that_o they_o will_v not_o be_v so_o easy_o expanded_a and_o therefore_o the_o difficult_a respiration_n will_v be_v also_o difficult_a and_o the_o small_a quantity_n of_o air_n that_o be_v receive_v into_o the_o unexpanded_a lung_n be_v warm_v with_o the_o hot_a blood_n which_o then_o circulate_v through_o that_o part_n affect_v we_o so_o when_o expire_v as_o the_o air_n of_o a_o chamber_n that_o be_v agitate_a by_o the_o small_a part_n of_o our_o fire_n that_o move_v among_o it_o and_o this_o affect_v we_o with_o heat_n so_o the_o breath_n of_o those_o sick_a strike_v those_o that_o stand_v near_o like_o fire_n see_v he_o blood_n be_v drive_v about_o fire_n in_o such_o a_o hu●●y_n the_o animal_n spirit_n separate_v i●_n so_o great_a abundance_n the_o blood_n so_o very_a fluxile_n and_o these_o spirit_n run_v through_o a_o great_a many_o different_a tract_n in_o the_o brain_n present_a to_o we_o so_o many_o different_a idea_n according_a to_o which_o we_o express_v ourselves_o and_o they_o be_v different_a and_o of_o several_a sort_n our_o thought_n be_v find_v very_o incoherent_a and_o unconnected_a which_o be_v to_o rave_v or_o to_o be_v delirious_a that_o watchfulness_n sleep_v too_o we_o daily_o observe_v proceed_v from_o these_o live_v representation_n and_o velocity_n of_o the_o blood_n and_o spirit_n and_o since_o in_o all_o the_o stage_n of_o this_o illness_n there_o either_o may_v be_v too_o great_a a_o distension_n of_o the_o blood-vessel_n in_o the_o brain_n and_o so_o no_o spirit_n derive_v into_o the_o nerve_n which_o will_v entire_o destroy_v the_o contraction_n of_o the_o heart_n and_o bring_v death_n or_o the_o blood_n may_v be_v in_o such_o a_o condition_n that_o it_o can_v give_v no_o supply_n of_o such_o spirit_n and_o upon_o this_o account_n too_o there_o can_v be_v no_o contraction_n of_o the_o heart_n no_o motion_n of_o the_o blood_n which_o be_v the_o want_n of_o life_n itself_o and_o in_o both_o these_o respect_n death_n it_o be_v evident_a how_o death_n may_v be_v the_o fatal_a consequence_n of_o this_o sickness_n for_o in_o the_o first_o the_o blood_n be_v either_o very_a viscid_n in_o the_o cold_a fit_a or_o extreme_o rarify_v in_o the_o hot_a by_o the_o patient_n own_o constitution_n the_o heat_n of_o the_o place_n where_o he_o live_v or_o warm_v medicine_n be_v so_o interrupt_v in_o the_o artery_n of_o the_o brain_n and_o be_v augment_v by_o the_o succeed_a blood_n it_o may_v distend_v the_o side_n of_o the_o artery_n and_o produce_v the_o name_v effect_n or_o if_o the_o blood_n in_o the_o cold_a fit_n be_v so_o viscid_a and_o confine_n the_o spirit_n that_o they_o can_v be_v separate_v or_o there_o be_v a_o real_a want_n of_o spirit_n in_o the_o blood_n which_o turn_v to_o the_o same_o account_n there_o can_v be_v no_o secretion_n of_o spirit_n where_o there_o be_v none_o and_o therefore_o there_o will_v none_o be_v derive_v into_o the_o nerve_n for_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o muscle_n and_o contraction_n of_o the_o heart_n by_o the_o by_o it_o be_v no_o less_o evident_a that_o when_o the_o blood_n be_v thus_o infinite_o comminute_v and_o still_o break_v down_o into_o part_n lesser_a and_o lesser_a by_o a_o indiscreet_a management_n and_o want_v of_o drink_v of_o something_o that_o may_v be_v a_o body_n to_o the_o spirit_n the_o blood_n be_v not_o only_o deprive_v of_o that_o serum_fw-la that_o shall_v have_v preserve_v its_o fluxility_n and_o be_v that_o body_n but_o of_o its_o spirit_n too_o and_o so_o must_v needs_o produce_v the_o foregoing_a effect_n and_o make_v this_o melancholy_a tragedy_n end_n at_o last_o in_o death_n last_o since_o the_o sick_a must_v continue_v in_o this_o condition_n so_o long_o as_o the_o state_n of_o the_o blood_n be_v in_o this_o way_n and_o see_v those_o part_n which_o be_v thus_o break_v in_o this_o motion_n may_v be_v carry_v off_o by_o the_o glandule_n of_o the_o skin_n break_v open_a of_o the_o pipe_n by_o the_o intestin_n etc._n etc._n and_o by_o these_o mean_v the_o blood_n may_v be_v looseness_n render_v more_o compact_a and_o equal_a in_o its_o motion_n therefore_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o this_o sickness_n may_v be_v judge_v by_o sweat_v hemorrhage_n looseness_n etc._n etc._n thus_o have_v demonstrate_v the_o necessity_n of_o these_o symptom_n from_o the_o supposition_n of_o a_o interruption_n of_o perspiration_n hypothesis_n i_o will_v proceed_v to_o consideration_n of_o the_o like_a nature_n if_o i_o be_v not_o first_o oblige_v to_o vindicate_v this_o hypothesis_n from_o one_o that_o be_v mere_o such_o as_o i_o but_o late_o promise_v if_o therefore_o any_o one_o will_v take_v one_o more_o or_o all_o of_o these_o symptom_n and_o let_v he_o have_v no_o respect_n to_o any_o hypothesis_n but_o read_v they_o backward_o according_a to_o the_o know_a and_o familiar_a rule_n of_o nature_n he_o shall_v find_v they_o necessary_o proceed_v from_o a_o real_a or_o factitious_a fullness_n which_o be_v the_o same_o as_o to_o their_o effect_n and_o since_o we_o come_v by_o this_o fullness_n in_o our_o ordinary_a way_n of_o live_v it_o be_v plain_a that_o it_o be_v not_o that_o that_o be_v its_o cause_n but_o there_o be_v no_o way_n else_o we_o can_v acquire_v it_o except_o by_o retain_v somewhat_o for_o some_o time_n we_o usual_o lose_v and_o since_o it_o be_v not_o the_o first_o the_o last_o be_v either_o by_o the_o suppression_n of_o the_o secretion_n make_v by_o stool_n by_o urine_n in_o the_o respiration_n or_o by_o the_o skin_n or_o perspiration_n now_o we_o see_v the_o forego_n symptom_n rendezvous'd_v into_o a_o great_a number_n while_o neither_o the_o evacuation_n by_o stool_n urine_n or_o respiration_n the_o other_o i_o name_v not_o they_o be_v very_o inconsiderable_a seem_v to_o be_v much_o alter_v from_o what_o we_o see_v they_o in_o a_o natural_a state_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v perspiration_n only_o that_o be_v able_a to_o produce_v these_o effect_n and_o this_o fullness_n as_o i_o just_o suppose_v moreover_o sanctorius_n have_v teach_v we_o by_o make_v out_o the_o proportion_n of_o secretion_n in_o the_o 5_o 6_o 21_o 59_o 60_o aphorism_n of_o the_o first_o sect_n of_o his_o statical_a medicine_n that_o secretion_n by_o perspiration_n be_v at_o least_o double_a of_o all_o the_o other_o secretion_n and_o therefore_o when_o that_o be_v interrupt_v it_o can_v produce_v that_o fullness_n in_o as_o short_a a_o time_n as_o all_o the_o secretion_n together_o can_v and_o since_o they_o or_o the_o most_o of_o they_o be_v good_a while_o the_o name_v symptom_n have_v grow_v into_o a_o great_a number_n therefore_o this_o fullness_n have_v its_o rise_n from_o a_o interrupt_v perspiration_n and_o so_o the_o supposition_n be_v just_a and_o a_o great_a deal_n more_o than_o a_o mere_a hypothesis_n as_o i_o be_v oblige_v to_o prove_v the_o perspiration_n thus_o interrupt_v in_o hot_a constitutious_a hot_a country_n or_o a_o warm_a season_n these_o fever_n do_v not_o begin_v with_o so_o long_a a_o continue_a coldness_n but_o the_o heat_n succeed_v a_o great_a deal_n soon_o as_o may_v be_v collect_v from_o what_o i_o be_o to_o say_v hereafter_o when_o i_o give_v some_o intimation_n of_o the_o sickness_n of_o hot_a country_n yet_o the_o blood_n have_v sometime_o that_o velocity_n we_o assign_v it_o to_o have_v in_o another_o place_n when_o it_o be_v most_o apt_a to_o make_v secretion_n by_o
