He continu'd the use of the Ptisan prescrib'd for his ordinary drink and on the Tuesday took his purging potion as before and was perfectly well thereafter There are two things I would have observed in this disease first that the Medicins upon the past design be never given till we be convinc'd that the obstruction in the capillary arteries of the part thus affected is not so powerful for when they are given before that time as a great many Authors perswade us they only squeeze out the thinner part of the blood and leave the rest despoiled of a vehicle fit to maintain its fluxility and so very convenient to heighten the obstruction which causes this inflammation and its consequences and therefore he must be sure to blood plentifully and the right way before we think of giving internal Medicines The other is that we busie not nor amuse our selves with the idle and not only idle but useless and impracticable distinction the Authors make in this disease when they tell us that since 't is an inflammation about the Throat if that be of the internal muscles of the Larynx it must be call'd a Cynanche but if of the external muscles a Paracynanche and if on the internal muscles of the Pharynx a Cynanche if on the external muscles of that part a Paracynanche And that this distinction is impracticable is evident to any one that knows the Anatomy of these parts how small the proper muscles of the Larynx are and how near the internal and external muscles are one to another and they only divided and parted by a thin membrane which cannot only not hinder the inflam'd muscles of the one sort to press hard upon the other but is even itself affected with this Inflammation But they should have told us too the symptoms of This part 's being affected and such signs whereby we may distinguish the Inflammation of the one sort of these muscles from That of the other but of this too much Thus I have run over with an indifferent exactness my Disquisition into the marine diseases and the History of those in the Fleet last Summer which I presume may correct a great many errors and mistakes in that affair and highly contribute to an amendment of others of the same nature and cannot doubt but that the Candor of the ingenious will very easily cover any pieces of Frailty I may have committed in this first Essay and for that favour I shall endeavour to better it if I find encouragement suitable to the Undertaking Yet all these things will better appear in the Histories of the next years service that are to be continued with this FINIS Books lately Printed for Hugh Newman at the Grashopper in the Poultry OEconomia Corporis Animalis Autore Gulielmo Cockburn Collegii Medic.
