They are found in Veins Arteries Lymphatick and Lacteal Vessels and in musculous Fibres which were first discovered by our Curiosity and of which we have discoursed in a particular Tract The Use of them is to hinder the Blood and other Liquors from returning the same way they came Valvulae Valves are also found in the Intestines in the small and great Guts especially in the Jejunum and about the beginning of the Ileum which are called Semi-circular from their Figure These Valves or Folds grow more and more oblique by little and little the nearer you come to the Ileum and at the beginning of the Ileum they are less oblique than farther on In like manner near the end of the Jejunum they are gradually more and more distant from one another and so in the Ileum too At the beginning and in the middle of the Jejunum they are scarce distant half a Thumbs breadth in the Ileum a whole Thumbs breadth and more They yield a little if thrust with your Finger and move here and there At the beginning of the Colon there is a fleshy and circular Valve besides several others in that Gut The Use of them is to stop the Meat a little that it may be the better fermented the Chyle distributed the adjacent Parts be cherished with Heat and lastly that it ascends not again Vaporarium is when the Patient does not sit in Liquor but receives Vapours through an Hole under which there is placed a Pot full of apposite and boyling hot Ingredients which cooling fresh Matter is added Varicosum corpus is that Contexture of Spermatick Vessels which enters the Testicles Variolae the small Pox consists in a contagious Disorder of the Blood contracted from the Air or otherwise accompanied with a continued wandring Fever which sometimes increases sometimes decreases with a Pain in the Head and Loins Anixety and Inquietude and with a breaking forth of Pimples or Wheals which swell and suppurate The famous Willis attributes the Cause of this Distemper to some filthy and fermentative Matter which is communicated to the Faetus together with the Nourishment from the Womb but how this can hold in Adult Persons whose Blood has undergone so many Alterations I could never yet understand from his Writings It seems rather to consist in a depraved Temperature of Air with a peculiar Disposition of the Blood and the nervous Juice towards this Distemper This poysonous Quality of the Air first infects the nervous Juice whence proceeds the Pain of the Head and Loins wherewith the Blood boils and ferments and parts into little Pieces or Clots which in the Course of Circulation stick to the outward Parts and to the inner Viscera too after a while they grow ripe and suppurate Varix see Cirsos Varus see Jonthus Vas breve see Breve vas Vasa the Vessels are Cavities through which the Liquors of the Body pass as a Vein an Artery lymphatick Vessels the Ductus that conveys the Chyle and those of the Spittle Vasa lactea the Milky Vessels in the Mesentery they which reach from the Guts especially the small Guts to the Glandules in the Mesentery are said to be of the First sort and they which reach from those Glandules to the Bag that carries the Chyle are of the Second sort Their Use is to convey the Chyle from the Guts to the little Bag that holds the Chyle and thence to the Ductus which conveys it along the Thorax Asellius was the first who discovered them and the dextrous F. Ruischius afterwards discovered Valves in them Vasa Lymphatica see Venae Lymphaticae Vena a Vein the Species of them are the Vena cava the Vena portae the lymphatick and milky Veins Arteries are sometimes taken for Veins They consist of four Tunicks a nervous a glandulous a muscular and a membranaceous one The Branches of the Vena

The fifth is in the Vessels and Bowels as in the Spleen Liver Testicles c. It is ill called coction or boiling because 't is the property of Fire to boyl for if Heat were the cause of Fermentation what should be then of Fish and other things wherein there 's no sensible heat at all Codia are the tops of Poppies of which they make Syrup Cecum intestinum is the Fourth in order from the Stomach and first of the thick Guts in Children new born 't is found full of Excrements but in Adult persons its Cavitie often disappears and onely hangs like a Worm Caelia is a great Cavity as the uppermost middle and the lowest Region or Cavity Caeliaca Arteria is that which arises from the Trunc of the great Arterie and spreads it self towards the Ventricle and Liver with its Branches Coeliaca passio or Affectio is a Purging wherein the Meat either wholly changed or in part is ejected without any Chilification and it is twofold the first in which the Meat is onely Digested in the Stomach the other when Concoction or Fermentation is performed in the Stomach and Intestines both at once but by reason that the Lacteal Vessels or little Teats of the Guts are Obliterated through long Fasting a Purulent Dissenterie or the like the Chyle is not distributed Coeloma is a hollow and round Ulcer in the Horny Tunic of the Eye Coelum is the Cavitie of the Eye towards the Corners The Palate is also called Coelum Cohobatio is when a distilled Liquor is poured upon its Menstruum again and afterwards is Distilled Coindicantia are signs which do not indicate by themselves but by another Colatura is that which after Boyling or Infusion is percolated through a Sive or Cloth Colc●thar is the dry Substance which remains after Distillation commonly called Caput mortuum
Hypophthalmia is a pain in the Eye under the Horney Tunic Hypopyon is a gathering of Matter under the Horney Tunic of the Eye Hyposarca the same with Anasarca Hyposarcidium the same Hyposphagma is a blood-shot from a stroak upon the Eye Hypostasis Urinae is that thick Substance which generally subsides at the bottom of Urine Hypothenar is the space from the fore to the little Finger Hypothesis is the supposition of a thing Hypozoma is a Membrane that parts two Cavities as the Mediastinum in the Thorax Hyposiloides see Hyoides Hysteralgia is a pain in the Womb proceeding from an Inflamation or otherwise Hysterica Passio Fits of the Mother is a Convulsion of the Nerves of the Par Vagum and Intercostal in the Abdomen proceeding from a Pricking Irritation or Explosion of Spirits this Distemper does not always depend upon the Womb as is commonly thought we have seen it more than once in Men because the Spleen Pancreas and other adjacent Bowels are often the cause of it Hysterica are Medicines against the Diseases of the Womb. Hysterotomotocia or Sectio Caesarea is a cutting the Child out of the Womb which is done thus You make a Semilunar Section under the Navel along the White line the cavity whereof looks towards the said Line then according to the leading of the Fibres the Faetus being extracted after the Section the wound in the Womb contracts of it self so that the Blood scarce flows more plentifully than in a Natural Birth but if the Mother be dead chuse the most convenient place you can Hysterotomia is an Anatomical Dissection of the Womb.

JAnitor the same that Pylorus Ichor is a sulphureous and watery Humour which flows from Ulcers Ichoroides is a moisture like Corruption Icterus the Jaundice is a changing the Skin into a yellow Colour from an obstruction of the ductus choledochus or the Glandules of the Liver through the weakness obstruction or Schirres of the Liver or because the Gall abounds more than can be conveniently excerned so that it stays in the Blood It takes its Name from 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 a Ferret whose Eyes are tinged with the like Colour Or from a Bird called Icterus of the same Colour which the Latines call Galbulus which if one sick of the Jaundice sees says Pliny the Party is cured and the Bird dies The Latines call it Regius Morbus the Kingly Disease because it is easily cured in Courts with the Pastimes and Divertisements there which cheer the Mind It is also called a Suffusion of Gall. Idea morbi is the Propriety and Essence of a Disease Idiopathia is a primary Disease which neither depends on nor proceeds from any other Idiosyncrasia is a Temperament peculiar to any Body Jecur the same with Hepar Jecur uterinum see Placent alteri Jejunum intestinum is the Second of the small Guts so called because it is frequently empty The little glandulous Nipples in it imbibe the Chyle and convey it to the Milky Veins Varro calls it Hilla Ignis actualis actual Fire is that which burns at first touch as Fire it self and seering Irons Ignis potentialis potential Fire is a Medicine which after it has laid sometimes upon the part exerts it self Ignis persicus the same that Gangraena It is taken also for a Carbuncle Ignis sacer the same that Erysipelas yet some take it for an Herpes Ignis sylvestris the same that Phlyctaena Ignitio is Calcination made by Fire I le is the Cavity from the Thorax to the Bones of the Thighs Pliny observes that all the Intestines in all Animals except a Man and a Sheep are called I le Ilia are the lateral parts of the Abdomen betwixt the last Rib and the secret Parts Ilingus see Scotomia Ilium is the Third of the small Guts It begins where the Jejunum ends and ends it self at the Gut called Caecum It is one and twenty Hand-breadths in length Ilium is a Disease for the most part of the Gut Ilium and is called Volvulus when the upper part of any Intestine is involved in the under and on the contrary Ilium os is part of the Bone Innominatum without any particular Name It is so named because it contains the Gut Ilium It s Circumference is circular the upper broadest it is connected to the os Sacrum The upper part of it is called Spina the interior Costa and the exterior Dorsum It is larger in Women than Men. Iliaca passio the same that Ilium Morbus Iliaca vasa are those double forked Vessels of the Truncs of the great Artery and the great Vein of the Abdomen about the place where the Bladder and the Womb are scituate Imaginatio the same with Phantasia Imperfecta crisis see Crisis Impetigo Celsi the same that Lepra Graecorum Celsus makes four sorts The most harmiess says he is that which is like a Scab for it is red and harder and exulcerated and gnawed But it differs from it in that it is more exulcerated and is accompanied with speckled Pimples And there seem to be in it certain Bubbles from which after a certain time there fall as it were little Scales and it returns more certainly Another sort is worse almost like a sort of Meezles or hot Pimples in the Skin but more rugged and redder and of different Figures In this Distemper little Scales too fall from the surface of the Skin and it
upper part of the Chest which is exposed to the Air the Skin is sometimes spotted thicker sometimes thinner with them like as with so many drops but without any Trouble or Pain in some they appear only in Summer and disappear in Winter in others they continue the Year round Lepidoides is the scaly Suture of the Scull see Mendosa Lepra a Leprosie is a dry Scab whereby the Skin becomes scaly like Fish It differs from Leuce and Alphus in that a Leprosy is rough to the touch and causes an Itching for the Skin is the only part affected and therefore that being flea'd off the Flesh underneath appears sound and well Lepra Arabum the same that Elephantiasis Graecorum Lepra Graecorum or Impetigo Celsi is the highest degree of Scabbedness but it must be observed lest any should be gravell'd in the reading of Authors that we here speak of the Leprosy of the Greeks not the Arabians That which the Arabians call a Leprosy is the Elephantiasis of the Greeks which is nothing else than an Universal Canker of the whole Body A Leprosy is a Disease proceeding from black Bile diffused through the whole Body whence the Temperature the Form and Figure and at last the very Continuity of the Body is corrupted and it is a Canker common to the whole Body The Arabians call the Leprosy of the Greeks Albaras nigra which is the same with a kind of Ring-worm or Tetter which fleas the Flesh and is a rough violent Scab in the Skin accompanied with Scales like Fish and itching There is a greater Corruption of Humours in a Leprosy than in a Scabbedness and from the latter there only fall little flakes like Dendriff from the Head but from the former as it were Scales of Fish so that one passes from Itching to a Leprosy by the Scab For Pruritus or Itching is a certain small Asperity of the Skin wherein unless you scratch very hard nothing falls from the Skin When it is grown to a scab the Humour is more apparent and certain little Particles like Dendriff fall off whether it be scratched or no. For in a Scab the matter is thinner and at least preys upon the Surface of the Skin But then in a Leprosy the matter is thicker and not only feeds upon the Surface but the inner parts of the Skin Celsus doubtless meant this Leprosy of the Greeks by the Word Impetigo but not the Lichen of the Greeks which some call Impetigo Leptuntica are attenuating cutting Medicines which part the crass and viscous Humours with their acute Particles Lethargus a Lethargy is a Drowziness like another Disease causing an heavy sleep called Coma accompanied with a Feaver and a Delirium and it is nothing else but an heap of too much or incongruous moist Matter within the Pores of the barky substance of the Brain This Distemper does not seem to come of it self but rather from the demigration of Feavers Leuce is when the Hairs Skin and sometimes the Flesh underneath turns white the Flesh being pricked with a Needle is not sensible nor emits Blood but a Milky Humour It differs from Alphus in that it penetrates deeper and changes the Skin so that the Hairs are changed too Leucoma is a white Scar in the horney Tunic of the Eye Leucophagum is made of Almonds macerated in Rose-Water and of Capon or Partridg boiled bruised and strained through a Sieve made of Bristles It is used in a Consumption Leucophlegmatia is a pituitous Dropsy or a Dropsy that has seized the whole Body Lichen barbarously called Serpigo or Zerna Halliabbas calls it Petigo and Sarpedo the vulgar Voliatica Lichenes are certain Asperities of the Skin and as it were Tumors which itch much and send forth Matter The Greeks and Arabians have made two sorts of Lichens the one mild and gentle the other fierce and cruel And according to Avicen some are moist which being rubbed send forth a kind of Dew others are dry and the moist are more safe but the dry is made of salt pituitous Matter turned into Melancholly Blood And again he writes that one Manginess Impetigo brings off the Skin by reason of its great Dryness and another does not and that one is ambulatory and malignant another fixed and standing as also one is old another fresh Hence it appears that the Scabies of Corn. Celsus was nothing but these Lichenes of the Greeks and the Impetigo of the Arabians It comes in any part of the Body but especially in the Face and Chin as Galen has it for a Lichen says he is a most ungrateful Distemper in the Chin because it makes it itch exceedingly and stretches out the parts affected It is not a little dangerous it spreads over the whole Face and sometimes reaches the Eyes and at last makes the Person affected extream filthy and loathsom Lichen of the Greeks is Pliny's Impetigo or an Inequality of the Skin extending it self to the neighbouring parts and accompanied with an extraordinary Itching and dry Pimples Lichen is also the callous part in an Horses Foot likewise a sort of green Moss Libra medica a Physicians Pound is twelve Ounces for as often as they prescribe a Pound they mean so many Ounces Lien see Splen Lienteria is a Looseness when the Meat is sent out before it be altered Ligamentum a Ligament is a solid and very fibrous part proceeding almost from Matter like a Cartilage different in size number and scituation broad or round cold as it comes near the constitution of a Membrane or a Cartilage dryer or moister harder or softer more or less tough and flexible and designed by Nature for the connecting of Parts especially Bones that they may better perform their Motions Ligula the same that Clavicula Linea alba is a concourse of the Tendons of the Muscles of the Abdomen excepting the Tendons of the streight ones For the Tendons of the Oblique Muscles unite and meet so on both sides that they make a kind of Tunic that covers the Abdomen as if they were all but one Tendon It is white and not fleshy proceeding from the pointed Cartilage to the os Pubis and is narrower below the Navel than above Lingua the Tongue is an oblong broad thick Member and thicker at the Roots and thinner and sharper at the end of a moderate bigness that it may move more quickly In the Exterior and upper part of the Tongue there are a great many little Bodies which break out from the Surface of the Tongue and crooking moderately incline backwards towards the Root so that they look like a Comb that cards Wooll These Cartilaginous Bodies in an Ox especially seem to resemble the Figure of a Boare's Tooth in the lower part they have a certain Cavity They are made of a thick tenacious fibrous Matter which seems like a heap of little Rods About the sides of the Tongue they grow smaller and smaller so that they almost disappear and certain membranous Bodies are placed at their Basis
