A16823	The pisse-prophet, or, Certaine pisse-pot lectures Wherein are newly discovered the old fallacies, deceit, and jugling of the pisse-pot science, used by all those (whether quacks and empiricks, or other methodicall physicians) who pretend knowledge of diseases, by the urine, in giving judgement of the same. By Tho. Brian, M.P. lately in the citie of London, and now in Colchester in Essex. Never heretofore published by any man in the English tongue.

mortality_n and_o present_a imminent_a danger_n give_v he_o the_o best_a instruction_n that_o i_o can_v to_o prepare_v himself_o for_o that_o sudden_a change_n of_o this_o life_n for_o another_o that_o be_v like_a to_o be_v and_o so_o take_v my_o leave_n of_o he_o but_o before_o i_o can_v get_v away_o i_o be_v desire_v by_o some_o of_o his_o friend_n that_o be_v about_o he_o to_o tell_v they_o for_o they_o think_v that_o we_o can_v sure_o tell_v or_o else_o that_o we_o be_v not_o our_o crafts-master_n whether_o he_o will_v die_v or_o no_o and_o i_o take_v upon_o i_o to_o determine_v his_o death_n before_o eight_o of_o the_o clock_n the_o next_o night_n within_o half_a a_o hour_n of_o which_o time_n he_o die_v but_o before_o i_o can_v get_v out_o of_o the_o chamber_n they_o begin_v to_o whisper_v as_o the_o manner_n be_v and_o to_o scoff_n i_o to_o my_o face_n say_v among_o themselves_o that_o they_o do_v nor_o perceive_v but_o that_o he_o may_v live_v as_o long_o as_o i_o but_o my_o prediction_n prove_v so_o true_a and_o be_v so_o soon_o accomplish_v that_o i_o come_v off_o from_o that_o their_o censure_n with_o more_o than_o ordinary_a credit_n for_o as_o much_o as_o i_o have_v prefix_v so_o short_a a_o time_n of_o his_o life_n and_o the_o event_n death_n follow_v now_o so_o near_o the_o utmost_a bound_n and_o limit_n of_o the_o time_n yet_o i_o confess_v ingenuous_o that_o i_o be_v too_o peremptory_a in_o determine_v his_o death_n within_o so_o short_a a_o time_n or_o by_o such_o a_o hour_n for_o i_o have_v tell_v they_o that_o he_o can_v not_o live_v until_o such_o a_o hour_n which_o be_v ●ight_a of_o the_o clock_n and_o that_o if_o he_o shall_v escape_v that_o hour_n he_o will_v recover_v but_o yet_o both_o of_o these_o prediction_n may_v have_v prove_v false_a for_o he_o may_v both_o escape_v that_o hour_n and_o yet_o may_v not_o recover_v though_o i_o say_v he_o will_v if_o he_o pass_v that_o hour_n but_o die_v within_o a_o few_o day_n or_o hour_n after_o neither_o do_v i_o pronounce_v my_o judgement_n from_o any_o ground_n of_o art_n that_o do_v determine_v his_o death_n within_o such_o a_o hour_n but_o only_o by_o conjectural_a probability_n for_o your_o cunning_a man_n or_o conjurer_n nay_o the_o devil_n himself_o can_v otherwise_v than_o upon_o conjecture_n determine_v a_o sick_a man_n life_n unto_o a_o hour_n unless_o you_o make_v he_o one_o of_o the_o almighty_n scoret_n counsel_v nay_o i_o dare_v affirm_v that_o the_o devil_n may_v and_o often_o be_v deceive_v in_o their_o conjecture_n and_o calculation_n touch_v the_o life_n and_o death_n of_o man_n and_o yet_o their_o natural_a knowledge_n be_v far_o more_o than_o man_n for_o they_o be_v spirit_n and_o their_o acquire_v knowledge_n be_v as_o much_o beyond_o man_n because_o they_o be_v ancient_a than_o man_n even_o from_o the_o beginning_n of_o the_o world_n &_o be_v not_o subject_a to_o the_o same_o mortality_n that_o man_n be_v who_o before_o he_o come_v to_o begin_v to_o have_v understanding_n be_v in_o his_o grave_n i_o say_v therefore_o that_o no_o physician_n nay_o the_o devil_n who_o be_v ancient_a than_o aesculapius_n or_o hypocrates_n or_o any_o of_o that_o race_n can_v determine_v the_o life_n and_o death_n of_o a_o man_n but_o upon_o conjecture_n and_o may_v be_v deceive_v but_o yet_o you_o look_v that_o a_o physician_n shall_v be_v able_a to_o do_v it_o and_o not_o to_o err_v because_o such_o a_o event_n do_v oftentimes_o accidental_o follow_v such_o a_o peremptory_a conclusion_n as_o this_o of_o i_o be_v that_o this_o party_n will_v die_v within_o such_o a_o hour_n it_o be_v true_a indeed_o and_o i_o may_v true_o say_v the_o nature_n of_o the_o disease_n and_o the_o strength_n of_o the_o body_n with_o all_o other_o sign_n of_o death_n be_v well_o consider_v that_o i_o think_v the_o party_n will_v scarce_o live_v until_o such_o a_o hour_n but_o if_o i_o shall_v say_v without_o any_o qualification_n of_o the_o sense_n that_o the_o party_n will_v not_o live_v until_o such_o a_o hour_n and_o that_o he_o will_v recover_v if_o he_o shall_v pass_v that_o hour_n you_o may_v think_v that_o i_o speak_v without_o my_o book_n for_o i_o can_v not_o say_v so_o but_o that_o i_o must_v speak_v more_o than_o i_o know_v and_o so_o derogate_v from_o the_o providence_n of_o god_n in_o assume_v that_o knowledge_n unto_o myself_o that_o belong_v only_o to_o he_o i_o be_v likewise_o call_v to_o another_o lusty_a young_a man_n one_o john_n duffield_n by_o name_n in_o the_o very_a same_o town_n very_o short_o after_o who_o be_v sick_a of_o the_o very_a same_o disease_n in_o the_o same_o manner_n who_o friend_n be_v very_o importunate_a at_o i_o to_o be_v tamper_n with_o he_o and_o to_o use_v my_o best_a skill_n to_o recover_v he_o but_o i_o perceive_v that_o there_o have_v another_o quack_n be_v tamper_n with_o he_o before_o who_o have_v omit_v the_o opportunity_n of_o let_v he_o blood_n and_o find_v he_o

for_o it_o be_v afternoon_n and_o almost_o night_n when_o i_o be_v call_v unto_o he_o and_o he_o die_v before_o the_o next_o morning_n yet_o as_o i_o say_v before_o of_o the_o incertain_a judgement_n

whence_o i_o gather_v that_o it_o be_v a_o violent_a disease_n although_o the_o water_n do_v not_o witness_v the_o same_o and_o so_o give_v the_o description_n of_o a_o fever_n which_o show_v how_o the_o party_n be_v affect_v and_o make_v the_o messenger_n think_v that_o i_o perceive_v his_o disease_n in_o the_o water_n but_o you_o i_o hope_v well_o perceive_v how_o i_o do_v it_o and_o how_o a_o man_n may_v be_v sick_a unto_o death_n his_o urine_n show_v no_o disease_n at_o all_o and_o if_o a_o physician_n can_v satisfy_v the_o messenger_n and_o seem_v to_o describe_v the_o disease_n by_o the_o urine_n notwithstanding_o so_o now_o i_o proceed_v to_o sit_v in_o judicature_n upon_o this_o modest_a harlot_n the_o urine_n who_o in_o chronicall_a disease_n seem_v to_o import_v no_o disease_n at_o all_o and_o yet_o she_o be_v catch_v ipso_fw-la facto_fw-la in_o her_o close_a trick_n for_o which_o she_o be_v come_v to_o public_a censure_n but_o first_o before_o i_o come_v to_o

be_o certify_v or_o at_o least_o have_v strong_a presumption_n whether_o it_o be_v a_o chronicall_a or_o violent_a disease_n for_o if_o the_o piss_n post_v say_v a_o week_n or_o less_o i_o then_o presume_v that_o it_o be_v a_o violent_a disease_n but_o if_o the_o pisse-bearer_n say_v that_o the_o party_n have_v not_o be_v very_o well_o a_o good_a while_n which_o be_v their_o answer_n common_o in_o a_o chronicall_a disease_n when_o we_o ask_v how_o long_o the_o party_n have_v be_v sick_a for_o indeed_o they_o be_v not_o sick_a in_o most_o chronicall_a disease_n but_o be_v illish_a or_o

question_n let_v the_o water_n be_v of_o what_o colour_n soever_o it_o will_v or_o whether_o i_o 〈◊〉_d or_o no_o i_o care_v not_o i_o know_v how_o to_o give_v a_o answer_n that_o shall_v please_v

have_v already_o tell_v you_o in_o these_o chronicall_a disease_n that_o i_o be_o now_o to_o speak_v of_o next_o yet_o i_o will_v find_v the_o disease_n for_o which_o the_o party_n send_v it_o out_o of_o it_o nay_o if_o the_o party_n shall_v have_v no_o disease_n at_o all_o but_o send_v his_o urine_n to_o see_v if_o he_o be_v not_o incline_v unto_o some_o such_o hereditary_a disease_n as_o his_o parent_n have_v die_v of_o or_o be_v subject_n unto_o as_o the_o gout_n stone_n consumption_n or_o the_o like_a i_o will_v shake_v it_o into_o the_o danger_n of_o fall_v into_o the_o same_o or_o some_o other_o disease_n of_o no_o less_o danger_n for_o that_o they_o always_o fear_v and_o love_n to_o be_v warn_v of_o though_o they_o have_v obtain_v such_o a_o constitution_n of_o body_n as_o be_v not_o obnoxious_a unto_o their_o parent_n disease_n and_o thus_o i_o must_v do_v if_o a_o urine_n be_v send_v though_o the_o party_n be_v well_o or_o but_o a_o little_a out_o of_o tune_n by_o

discern_v since_o there_o be_v such_o a_o custom_n by_o the_o urine_n and_o i_o will_v find_v they_o out_o and_o more_o than_o there_o be_v by_o it_o if_o once_o i_o come_v to_o lecture_n upon_o it_o or_o else_o let_v they_o blame_v my_o judgement_n so_o then_o i_o trow_v there_o will_v be_v work_n for_o the_o tinker_n to_o prevent_v a_o hole_n in_o nature_n where_o there_o be_v never_o like_a
