some of them as Fellow Members of Christ and Temples of the Holy Ghost which are endearing Arguments to espouse their Wants as our own with this good Memento That by casting our Bread upon the Waters after many days 〈◊〉 shall find it And by providing for the Poor we shall lay up Treasures in Heaven The Itch and Scabs also arise from Critical Evacuations Itch and Scabs derived from critical Evacuations flowing from Acute and Cronick Diseases discharging corrupt Humours and serous Recrements into the Ambient parts of the Body whereby it is freed from more significant inward Diseases oftentimes threatning Death This unclean Disease is often derived from Contagion Itch and Scabs coming from Contagion by reason the Surface of Scabby Bodies is besmeared with a nasty and clammy moisture which being imparted to others by Contact or by Clothes or Converse which make the like Itchy and Scabby impressions into the Blood of others as being received first by the Pores of the Skin into the extreamities of the Veins and afterward into greater and greater Trunks till they land into the right Cistern of the Heart and from thence are transmitted through the ●ungs by various Vessels into the left Chamber of the Heart and from thence are impelled into the Trunk of the Aorta and into smaller and smaller Arterial Branches till they arrive the Exterior parts of the Body which being of acute sense are tortured with sharp and serous faeces of the Blood Now I make bold to offer a great Instance of this Contagious Disease of which I had Forty Patients at once in a School at Padington where the Scholars so infected one another that there could scarce be found one that was not tainted with this fruitful and filthy Disease In order to the Cure of this Disease a wholesome Diet is to be observed and all salt highly Unctuous and Fat Meats forborn as easily degenerating into corrupt and salt Faeculencies of the Blood and some propound good Roasted Meat as the most fit to dry up the serous Excrements of the Blood In reference to Pharmacy Medicines are to be advised that purge by Stool and Urine and then Bleeding is requisite Specifick Purging Medicines attended with Bleeding do evacuate serous Humours and discharge the scabby Ferments lodged in the Blood by Arteries inserted into the Intestines whence the course of nasty Recrements being diverted from the Circumference toward the Center from the Ambient toward the Interior parts is exonerated by the Guts into a more large and free Receptacle In this Distemper Salt and Watry Humours being concerned I deem it very proper to advise Medicines that purge by Urine to hasten the serous Recrements of the Blood down the descendent Trunk of the Aorta and Emulgent Artery into the Glands of the Kidney wherein the grose Saline mixed with watry Particles being secerned from the Blood are carried through the Carunculae Papillares into the Pelvis and from thence by the Ureters into the Bladder I conceive it reasonable to advise Sudorificks Sudorifick Medicines are to be Administred after Purgatives and Diureticks after Purgatives and Diureticks have been largely Administred to free the Mass of Blood from its Saline Excrements by the Cutaneous Glands and their Excretory Ducts into the confines of the Body where it is at last to be Eradicated by drying and cleansing Topicks which do satisfie the indications of these noisome and vexatious Ulcers as fed by serous and viscid Recrements which cleansing and drying outward Medicines turn into Scabs and scale them off whereby the Circumference of the Body is cleared from this foul Disease disgracing the elegant surface of the Skin CHAP. X. Of the Cure of a Cutaneous Disease the Leprosie of the Greeks THe Leprosie of the Grecians is a degree of a true Leprosie not come to a height and is produced by great confaederacy of fixed Saline and fierce Sulphureous Particles highly exalted whereupon the Mass of Blood being very much depraved and uneasie to the Noble parts is transmitted from the greater Arterial branches A Leprosie caused by saline Particles concreted into a scabby Scurf and smaller Capillaries into the substance of the Cutaneous Glands the Interstices of the Vessels where the acide saline Particles are secerned from the Mass of Blood and thrown off by the Excretory Ducts into the confines of the Body to which it concreteth and adhereth as to an outward Wall like concreted Tartar of Wine to the sides of the Hogshead This Disease is generated oftentimes by ill Diet of Flesh A Leprosie proceeding from an ill Diet of salt Meat dried in the Smoak and from eating of great slimy Fish highly salted and dried in the Sun or Smoak or from the free Cups of small and acide Wines which are impraegnated with much Tartar or from the eating of Hogs-flesh ill fed and nastily kept lying in their own Excrements without frequent change of clean Straw which rendreth the Flesh foul and unwholesome This scurfy disaffection of the Skin also taketh its rise from eating much slimy and great Fish which is familiar to them that live upon the Sea-Coast as treating themselves with well grown Fish which being of a viscide nature do spoil the Blood by making it full of gross Recrements and saline Particles as living in Salt Water which necessarily impraegnate their Blood with the same dispositions so that Fish being eaten in too great Proportions do produce gross Chyle in the Stomach and afterwards a foul Mass of Blood which is depurated in the Cutaneous Glands and thence conveyed to the outward parts where the Skin is crusted over with concreted saline Particles streined from the Vital Liquor which being highly rubbed or scratched do fall off like Scabs But this ugly Distemper doth not only proceed from ill Diet The Leprosie proceedeth from Venereal and Scorbutick Distempers but from bad internal Elements of the Blood consisting of depraved Heterogeneous parts often found in Venereal and Scorbutical Diseases which are founded in Malignant Humours of a venenate nature infecting the Blood whereupon this Prognostick may be made though it doth not threaten any eminent danger as speedily cutting off the Thread of Life yet it is hard to be Conquered as being very stubborn when deeply tooted not giving way to the Administration of powerful Medicines so that the Acide Saline and Sulphureous Particles of the Blood being rendred more and more exalted and the Patient being tired out with long Courses of Physick do degenerate into a perfect Leprosie which often proves an incurable Disease As to the Cure of it in reference to the preservative Indication which is satisfied in the removal of the Causes The first is Procatarctick flowing from a gross stagnant Air productive of the Scorby which must be carefully exchanged for a free serene Air The other Cause is an ill Diet in which we must abstain from salt Meats either dried in the Sun or Smoak and gross ill-brewed Ale
Circles of Cells full of Diaphanous Liquor and run horizontally being most commonly graced with an Orbicular Figure and resemble many round bedes set one by another The Bark of Trees having some likeness with the Skin of Animals The Bark of Trees is fastned to the Wood by many Cortical Fibres as the Skin of Man is conjoyned to the Body by the mediation of fruitful Fibres or Ligaments is contiguous to the Wood to which it is fastned by the interposition of many Cortical Fibres as the Skin is conjoyned to the Flesh by the mediation of innumerable thin Membranes and the Vessels appertaining to the Bark do often embrace each other and afterward are inserted into the Cuticula Whereupon I conceive it proceedeth that the Bark of many Trees are laticed with divers Fissures of different Figures and Magnitudes somewhat resembling the manner of Quadrangles of unequal sides And the said Fissures present us with several Postures and windings of the Vessels in their braces which is the cause that the Cuticle of some Trees peel off in a kind of Rings because the Vessels are lodged after the same position in the Bark in which divers braces and parting 's of the Vessels do much resemble the fine Network of the Skin made by the several unions of numerous Segments configuring the Vessels placed in the Cutis of a Humane Body CHAP. V. Of Pathology specified in many Disaffections and Diseases of the Cuticula and Cutis the outward and inward Skin HAving described the rare contexture of the Cuticula and Cutis of the finer and thicker Vestments encircling the Body of Man consisting of various Vessels and Fibres rarely interspersed and interwoven with each other and accompanied with numerous minute Glands discharging the hot steams and watry and saline parts of the Blood in Sweat through the excretory Vessels terminating into the Pores of the outward Skin and the comparate Anatomy of the Skin in Fish Insects and Plants My aim at this time is to Treat of the cutaneous symptomes as shadows attending different distempers and of various Diseases lodged principally in the inward and somewhat affecting the outward Skin which being thin and insensible is less obnoxious to Diseases and more liable to Symptoms This beautiful Vaile is sometime deformed in its surface with a yellow hue in the Jaundies The Skin is tinged with Yellow in the jaundies primarily caused by the obstructions of the cholidoc Duct not discharging the bilious parts of the Blood percolated by the hepatic Glands into the Duodenum whence the Liver being oppressed with too great a proportion of choleric Matter lodged first in the interstices of the Vessels is sollicited to throw it off with the mass of Blood into the extremity of the Cava through whose Trunk it is conveyed into the right Chamber of the Heart and thence impelled by the pulmonary Arteries and Veins into the left Cistern of the Heart and afterwards through the greater Trunks and smaller Branches in the cutaneous Glands as so many colatories of the Blood in which a secretion is made of the thinner part of the bilious Humours and transmitted through the excretory Ducts of the Skin to the surface of the Body defacing its white Robe new died with Yellow derived from bilious Humours severed from the Purple Liquor And sometimes this fine vaile of the outward Skin is bespeckled with various unnatural colours The Skin is discoloured in scorbutick distempers malignant severs and the Plague with Red Purple Livid and Black Spots which are sometimes critical and other times symptomatical imparted to it by scorbutic distempers malignant Fevers and the Plague marking the sick with Red Purple Livid and Black Characters as so many emblems of different Diseases flowing from the less or greater indisposition of the Blood dispersed into the cutaneous Glands by which some thin Particles being severed from the mass of Blood are discharged through the excretory Ducts into the Confines of the Body variegated with different spots Which sometimes prove critical as giving alleviation to Patients and are good omens of Recovery and other times are ill symptomes speaking a desperate sickness and as so many Black Characters in which we may plainly read the fatal stroke of death The Skin is also obnoxious to divers Swellings Ulce Scabs and Scurfes according to variety of Diseases And so I pass from Shadows to Substances from Symptomes to Diseases produced à vitiata conformatione partium affectarum in cute whose elegant texture is highly disordered and its beautiful Figure defaced in unnatural colours Asperities Inflamations Swellings Ulcers incident to the Skin in the Measles Small Pox Scarlet Fevers St. Anthonies Fire or Erysipelus Itch Tetters Leprosies and the like The Measles and Small Pox are somewhat alike in Nature and Cure The description of the Measles and are both called by the Grecians in a general name of 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 but the Small Pox are stiled more peculiarly by the Title of 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Whereupon the small Pox are some times complicated with the Measles as having affinity with each other which I saw in a Kentish Gentlewoman in whom the pimples of the Skin were interspersed with various red Asperities the marks of the Measles and blew spots the Shades of a more fatal Disease The Measles are much less then the other in bulk and are asperities or small risings of the Skin accompanied with a continued Fever arising as I conceive from ebullition of Blood which is transmitted by the capillary Arteries into the cutaneous Glands when the impure parts of the Blood are percolated and thrown through the excretory Ducts into the Skin highly tinged with a Red hue and rendred rough by some extravasated particles insinuated into the secret passages of the Skin whereupon it is made unequal by many minute protuberancies which soon grow ripe and disappear The Small Pox is a much greater and more troublesome distempers The description of the Small Pox. The symptomes of the Small Pox are the pain of the Head and Back attended with the pain of the Head and Back the forerunners of this noisome Disease the first arising from the Blood having recourse through the carotide Arteries to the Membranes of the Brain which are highly afflicted with its great effervescence and the pain of the Back proceedeth also from a great ebullition of Blood whose Compage being very much expanded by unnatural heat puffeth up the descendent Trunk of the Aorta whereupon the adjoyning vertebral Nerves are much discomposed and tortured with pain The Throat is very much inwardly swelled in the small Pox which is derived from the Matter of the Disease carried by the carotide Arteries into the tonsillary Glands which being tumefied do discompose the fauces and entrance of the Gulet and lessening its cavity do make a difficulty of swallowing Another symptome a concomitant of this vexatious distemper A sore throat and Cough are attendants of the Small Pox.
