is not meat for great Laborers but yet for temperate young folites the which vse mean exercise For this flesh ingendreth bloud that by mighty exercise or labour is soon resolved but not with mean travail And Galen sayth Gal de samiate tuendali 5 That Kids flesh is not wholesome for an old man And touching the intention as Kid flesh is better then any other Houshold Flesh so Goates flesh is better then any other bred in the Woods And next to Kids flesh many Physteians as Rasis and Averrois put Mutton And Averrois sayth that most part of Physirians are of this opinion averrois 5. c●l ca decarae Gal de samiate tuendali ● save Galen who commends not P●tton For be sayth That Mutton is notill for young folkes but it is unwholesome for old folke And he thinketh that Veale nourisheth more then Mutton And peradventure Galen vnderstandeth here the bitterness of nourishment of that that is to nourish much and to give nourishment more hard of Resolution which more agreeth unto Veal then Mutton since Mutton is of more humidity Thirdly the goodness and choice of Flesh may be taken by reason of their small clamminess and by their good savour And herein Veale is better then any other flesh And Averrois to this agreeth saying Veale is good Fl●sh for as much as it is not clammy cold nor dry as Beef is averrois 5 e● cap de carne And Veal hath sweeter savour then any other flesh and in these points it is better then Ridde flesh for in Hid flesh one ●ay perceive a clamminesse before it is sodden and because Veale ingendreth better humours it is betier then Ridde Flesh And thus it appeareth plainly what thing causeth controversie among the Ph●sitians touching the c●oice ●●●eshes The controversie in choise of flesh Further know that the flesh of a dry complexion is better hear calving time then far from it And there fore kids and Calves be better then Goats and Oxen because their driness is ahated with the humidity of their youngnesse But flesh of beasts of moist complexion is better and more wholesome in age then in youth for great part of their over much humidity is dried away as they do increase in age and therefore Weathers of a year old are lesse clammy and more wholesome then tucking Lambs And likewise Porks of a year or two old are better then young P●gges And therefore Avicen sayth It behooveth that the Meat that conserveth health should be such as the flesh of Kid avi 3.1 ca de re erus quod comeditur or a sucking Cals is or Lambs of a year old Then by these rea sons it appeareth that the flesh of Goats Male and Female of old Mution of Beef of old Pork and especially of Brawn of Pigges no of sucking Lambes is not very wholesome for the conservation of mans health but the flesh of young Calves of pearling Weathers and Porke of a peare or two old is conveniene enough to eate to prolong mans health And it is to be well noted that the flesh that is inclined to drynesse must be sod and the flesh that inclined to humidity must be roasted thereby to temper their drinesse and humidity And therefore the flesh of Conies and Hares Harts Calves Kids should be sod and perk and lamb roasted And by this reason it appeareth that in moyst seasons for moist complexions flesh disposed to drinesse should be roasted and in dry seasons and for complexions flesh dry and old moist meats be more convenient Ovarecertia vina rubentia pingnia jura Cum ijs simtlia pura natura sunt nalitura Your new layd Egs brisk cheerfully coloured wine And good fat broth in Phisick we define To be so wholesome that rheir purity Doth nourish nature very soveraignly Here in this Text divers nourishing meates are expressed The first is new layd Egges which be of that sort of foods that in a little quantity nourisheth much For Avicen saith That things small in quantity and great of nourishment Avi 2. caned dc ovis 〈◊〉 ca. 1 are Egs and Cock stones Touching the choise of Egs know that the Egs of Hens Partridges and of Pheasants young and fat are very good in the Regiment of Health and simply better then any other egs for the Priests daughter said That long Egs and small were the best of all as in Verses Filia presbyteri jubet pro lege toneri Quod bona sunt ov● candida long a nova The Priests fair Daughter held it a Law most true That Egs be best when they are long white new Further potched Egs are better then Egges roasted bard or ters and they be of great nourishment and of good light digestion and they ingender bloud specially proportionable to the heart wherefore they be exceeding good for such as be recovered from sicknesse for aged folk and for weak persons and specially the yolk For Avicen sayth av in tract de virihus cord●● That the yolke of Egges and of Fowles whose Flesh is good to be eaten as of Hens Partridges and Pheasants though they be not medicinable for the heart yet they comfort it very much And has addeth following That they be lightly turned into bloud and after they qe turned there remaineth of them but small superfluity And therefore they comfort most especially the heart And further be saith That they be excellent good to restore the spirits and bloud of the heart Rere roasted Egges are lightly digested and they ease the Lungs and the breast and mollifie the Belly temperately but they nourish not so much as poched Egges do Hard Egges sodden are hard of digestion and they nourish the body grossely descending slowly to the Stomack and slowly they enter therein Further know that the Egges by the dressing of them are made better or morse Dressing of ●g● For either they be roasted sodde alone or fryed or sodde with some broath Roasted Egges bee more grosse then todde and more bard of digestion for the Harth or fire dry●th vp the Substance of their humidity And they be roasted two wayes One is in the Shelles taken in the hote Imbers Another way is they be roasted standing on Imbers with their shels a little broken But they that be broken be worse then the other and they that in the shels be raked in bot Imbers are done two manner of wayes either they be all raked in the Imbers or set vpon Imbers and Coales with part uncovered They that be all covered are worse for by reason that the heat of the fire goeth about them the fumosities are kept still in and they that be set upon the Imbers and part vncovered aboyd out the sumosities whereby they bée purified They be better sodden in water then roasted for the humidity of the water striveth with the heat of the fire that drieth by their humidity And thus they be dressed two wayes for either they be sod in
of blood is wholesome There be two kinds of melancholymatural and vunafural Naturall is the dregs of bloud which when it aboundeth it runneth with blood and in letting of bloud is votded therewith For of the same temperate beat blood and melancholy the dregs thereof is engendred The fourth rule is that when boyling conturbation and calefactions of humors is feared it is wholesome to let blood and those persons as soon as they feel themselves inflamed should be let blood to avoid the foresaid motions caused by the great aboundance of humors Yet otherwhiles some ●e deceived by this rule for forthwith when they feel calefaction and fear boyling of humors they let them blood And when this commeth of beat calefaction and incision the calefaction or boyling ceaseth not by Blood letting but it is rather augmented for bloud-letting moveth the humors and maketh them run thorough the body Therefore letting of Blood is not wholesome except it be for aboundance of humors which is known by much sweat especially in the morning for there be some that sweat not except they need evacuation The fift this is they that be mighty and strong should be let bloud and not they that be cold and dry For Rasis saith That those bodies are apt to be let bloud which have great apparent veins that be h●iry and coloured between brown and red and folks not too young nor too old for children and vnweldy aged persons should not be letblo●d except necessity require ie Many of the said rules be gathered out ●i Avicen Aestas Ver dextras Autumnus Hyemsque sinistras Quatuo haec membra cephe cor pes epar vacuatur Ver Cor Epar Aestas ordo sequens reliqua Spring-time and Summer if we intend to bleed Veins on the right side do require as need Autumn and Winter they the left side crave In arm or soot as they best like to have The Head Heart Foot and Liver all these four Emptying require themselves best to restore The Heart calls for the Spring Summer the Liver Order vnto the rest is a due giver Here the Author reciting certain things concerning the members that be let bloud saith That in War and Summer the veyns of the right hand arm or foot should be let bloud But in winter and Autumn the veyns of the left hand arm or foot must be diminished The cause hereof may be for that Her encreaseth Blood and Summer Choler therfore in Uer and Summer vs should diminish those veins in which bloud Choler abound which be on the right side of the body near to the member that engendreth good bloud that is the Liver and the receptacle of choler the Gall. Autumne engendreth Melancholy which is gathered together and not resolved by Winter therefore in War and Winter these two Ueyns should be let-bloud in which melancholy hath dominion which be the left side voins for the spleneis on the left side of the body which is the receptacle of Melancholy Secondly be saith the Head the Heart the Foot and the Liver according to the four Seasons of the year must be emp●led the Heart in Uer the Liver in Summer the Head in Winter and the Foot in Autumn Dat saluatella tibi plurima dona minuta Purgat Epar splenem pectus praecordia vocem Iunaturalem tollit de corde dolorem Saluatella the opering of that Veyn In any man five benefits doth gain The Liver it doth purge from all offence And from the Splene commands annoyance thence Preserves the stomacks mouth and clears the Brest And keeps the voyce from being by harms opprest Here the Author reciteth five commodityes that come by letting of blood of the vein Saluatella It is the vein on the back of the hand between the midle singer and the King-singer it purgeth the lyder it cleanseth the Splene it mundifieth the brett is pr●serveth the stomacks mouth from hurt it doth away the hurt of the voice The reason of all these commodityes is because the foresaid vein avoideth blood from all these places as after it shall appeat For a more ample declaration you are to understand that in letting of blood other whiles the veynes be opened and sometime the Art●ryes The opening of the Artery is dangerous the cause here of is the overmuch bleeding which is caused two wapes One is through fervent heat of the Artery blood for a hot thing is soon moveable and dilateth and openeth the Artery and therefore t● help●●h much to void the blood in letting blood the Artery The second cause is mobility of the Artery and therefore the wound or gash in it is slowly healed Yet this letting of blood is wholesome thrée mannet of ways First when there is aboundauce of subtile blood in the body Secondly when the blood is vaporous Thirdly when it is hot For subtile blood of which natural blood and spirits be engendred rest each in the artery but gross blood that nourisheth the members resteth in the veins Like wise the vaporous blood is contained in the artery and sanguine blood in the veyn Also the hottest blood the which is of the heart the hottest member engendred and digested is contained in the Artery and the other Blood in the Veyns Secondly note that the veyns are opened in many members sometime in the arm or in the hand great or small sometime in the foot sometime in the nose sometime in the fore-head sometime in the lips sometime vnder the tongue or in the roof of the mouth sometime in the corner of the Eyes toward the fore-head From the Arm-pit to the Elbow are five veyns to be opened as Rasis and Avicen sayth The first is called Cephalica which is the Head-veyn The second is Basilica which is the Liver-veyn The third is called Mediana or Cardiaca or Nigra after Avicen or Matrix after Rasis The fourth is called Assillaris The fift is called Funis brachij In the left hand is Saluatella so that in the arm in that it contayneth the more and the lesse hand are six veyns to be opened Cephalica emptieth the parts abont the neck and therefore to open that veyn it is good for the diseases of the head as the Megrim and other hot griefs caused of hot matter This veyn beginneth at the shoulder and goeth forth soward the left side of the arm Basilica emptieth the parts vnder the neck as from the Bre●● and Liver and therefore the letting blood of this veyn is wholesome for diseases of the Brest and Liver and right good in a Plurisle This veyn beginneth at the arm-hole and goeth along to the bowing of the arm Mediana is betwéen these two said veins and is compact of them beth for it is the branch of each And it is also Median in vacuation for it voydeth from all about vnder from and about the neck Wherefore it is the vniversall veyn to all the body in voyding but not vniuersall as some say because it beginneth at the heart but because it is
