do not practise Phlebotomy though the Europeans there do Notwithstanding this I do not apprehend the force of the Objection as 't is managed against Plebotomy nor can I commend their judgement who from those Presidents which indeed are but one Authority the Iaponese being no other then a Chinase-Collony would put us upon an Essay of practising without Vene section Eor the difference of particlar Countries and Nations arising either from their Temperament Diet and Efficacious Medicaments and Method of Curing as to render Phlebotomy useless or dangerous there whereas in other places there may be nay 't is certain is a necessity for a different procedure I have already remarqued that at Montpelier there is a greater repugnancy unto and danger of Phebotomy then at Paris And the Presidents of the one Province doth not oblige the others And though it be true that as in China so in Languidock Physick is in a good condition yet doth it not follow that therefore it is in a bad condition in the other parts of France Spain or Italy c. 'T is no less certain that in hot Countries as well as here in Summer and Winter the method of carrying varies from what is to be practised in colder Climates And as wounds in the Head and Leggs are in some places cured with much more easie Medicaments then else where So 't is no less manifest that 't is irrational to conclude from the facility of those Cures in the places aforesaid that those are impertinent and mistaken who in other Regions proceed by a more tedious circumspect and vexatious Method Against that single instance 't is almost the voice of Nature which we alledge and since the learned and Barbarous Europe Asia Africa and America where no Combination or Traditional Doctrine derived from one to the others can be supposed do concur to justifie the practise of Phlebotomy against the Natives of Iapan and China let us reckon it amongst their singularities and founded upon motives peculiar to them or amongst those Errors which their affectation or ignorance hath particularly involved them in To conclude since the Miracles of their Cha or Te do not appear to us Practitioners in Europe to be true though the use thereof be so succesful there the cause thereof is to be ascribed to Circumstances of their Climate and way of living and accessional Therapeutics so neither is there any argument from their Omission of Phlebotomy that we may omit it here or that we should dare to imitate them but of this we may judge better when the Virtuosi receive from the West-Indies such an exact account of all Circumstances as may regulate a Physician A RELATION OF THE Strange Symptomes Happening by the Bite of an ADDER And the CURE thereof IN A LETTER TO A Learned Physician By H. S. Physician at Warwick LONDON Printed in the Year 1671. TO THE READER ALthough the insolence of some pretenders to Experimental Knowledge might discourage any Physician from contributing to the instruction of this Age yet I have suffered my self to be prevailed upon so far as to publish this discourse I might have enlarged upon it several wayes and added besides some Observations upon Adders the way of preparing Ui●er-wine and sundry Cures performed by it and the prepared flesh thereof But seeing that all we do of that kind doth but furnish a company of arrogant and ignorant Experimentators with subjects to oppose us and undermine the Faculty I am become inexorable as to that matter and will not be in the least instrumental towards the laying on of those Fetters which some men were preparing not only for all Artisans but all ingenuity and learning This race of men who had determined to value and praise none but themselves and extended their Civilities so far that all their mutual Elogies do import no more than a trade of smoak and ceremony may now abate of their pride and censoriousness and be satisfied that they are not necessary to the World except one have an occasion to send to the East-Indies to know what grows in America or to Southwales for an account of Nova Zembla or the Countries subject to the North and South-pole If all History and Antiquity be to be affronted most impudently if false Relations concerning Salt-peter Cider Birch-water c. seem requisite If Chimaeras be to be proposed or the Education and Religion of our native Countrey changed there is some use for this Association which considering their Armes Projects and Deportment alwayes puts me in mind of that Poetical Fancy described to be 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Had I written according as they replyed I could have confessed my self mad and less than a distracted Brain would never have chosen to desert Aristotle and Quintilian to imitate the fam'd Impertinencies of the Orator Posthumus who being to plead a case about three Goats that were stollen began an Haranque about Sylla and the Mithridatick Warre and never touched upon the main Controversie any more then doth the illiterate Ecebolius who what He designs I cannot tell by flattering Doctor J. W. and Mr. R. B. and terming an old Parl●ament Officer who hath the Canker of Presbytery and the Conscience of an Olivarian and who knows nothing by me a stranger to him though he hate me for knowing too much by him the Loyal C. E. D. And as great a Riddle is it how this Renegado-Presbyter should dare to say that there is not a Man born since 1936. less obnoxious to the Church and Government Will the generous Cavaliers endure this from a Rump-Chaplain Who confesseth himself to have been a Preacher in those dayes and never gave his Uote for Episcopacy but preached against Christmass-Pies till a year before the Kings coming in Certainly he was a very Fool who could be in those dayes so ignorant of the controverted Points and 't were an intollerable extravagance in any but a Uirtuoso to write this now But I shall call him to a particular account for all by the next Term. A RELATION Of the strange SYMPTOMES Happening by the Bite of an ADDER Honoured Sir I Have at last finished the cure of that Man who was so unfortunately bitten by an Adder here at Warwick and because of the rarity thereof I shall satisfie your desires in penning it Upon May the seventh 1671. Ioseph Denny a poor Man in Warwick usually employed by me to catch Adders walked out with his Brother to conduct him a part of his way homewards and having gone about a Mile he espied an Adder lying in the Sun it being about six a clock in the morning he was willing to shew his Brother the curiosity of catching them and how dexterous he was thereat and though he had neither Glove nor Tongs with him as not designing that work on Sundayes he did notwithstanding cast himself near the Adder and nimbly seising on her Tail threw her from her Covert with such celerity that she could not bite
