the thicknesse of one finger comming foorth a little vnder the bone of the back the pan or left wing of the lungs was thrust through not farre from the heart as the sight of the place sheweth But he was cured in that order which is set foorth of vs in the first chapter of the second booke and whiles the cure proceded the tenth day after he was wounded a great abundance of bloud did issue out of the wound of the lungs by reason of the continuall mocion of the same Which conflowing within the brest was congeled The next dressing great porcions of congeled bloud together with corrupt matter made of the wound came foorth not without meruaile of the standers by because they were greater porcions then should be beléeued that they might be receaued as they came foorth or sent foorth of the bodie These accidents considered when I saw the pacient power out euery day twise too great abundance of corrupcion I determined to change my purpose meaning to proue that waye as I taught you how Fistulaes should be cured and foorthwith I began And when two daies together I hadde giuen him that water to drink which is there set foorth at length all the congeled bloud together with the corrupted matter came foorth in two other daies the corrupted matter consumed away also and by and by he was deliuered of his ague and being in most short time made whole he became so very fat that great matter was offered to thē that knew the man to praise God An example of a certaine familier friend of Lodouike Zapata Cap. 16. THis man being a familier friend of maisher Lewis Zapata was wounded with a broade dagger foure times behinde his back and striken on the left side but of those wounds one was receaued the breadth of sixe fingers vnder the shoulder bone the dagger yelding back went downe betwene the flesh and the bone as much as I haue oftentimes measured to be seuen fingers breadth vntill the dagger passing through all the shoulder thrust betwéene the spaces of the ribbes came to the verie holownesse of the bodie Before that I came thether after I was sent for I did coniecture by those things that happened after great abundance of bloud gushing out of all partes of the wound to haue runne into the holownesse of the bodie But that bloud could not come foorth because the wound being couered with the skinne and the flesh did penetrate downward which way it is very like that the fluxes did also tend For the first opening of the dagger was déeper thē that the blood might well breake foorth So I when I had begun my first cure nor could finde no direct going downe would haue thought that it had penetrate no more then the rest After I had serched the place more diligently and thrust in my finger I perceiued that the wound did go downe farther then I could follow with my finger Therefore when I had perceiued that the wound did penetrate to the concauite I opened the place ouer against the ribbes cutting the skinne and the flesh directly against it so that putting in my finger I might easely come to the innermore parts and touch also the lights which is nert the back bone But he was cured in that order as I haue shewed you in the penetrating wounds of the breast and at the first dressing there was no corrupcion or matter made but a certaine small humiditie did issue foorth but the fourth day water of a sanguine coulour flowed out as that is in the which flesh is washed and dayly as his dressings dyd follow it came out more abūdantly so that euerie dressing it did fill a vessell which they call a saucer and that it might issue out the better and more spéedelie I had the pacient to cough and holde in his breath hée was dressed of me foure times a day and beside that which ranne out at euery dressing the issue stayed not day nor night so that his bed was like a sinke or ditch Therfore at the fourth day when I perceiued such fluxe of water to continue without any token of matter I did determine to giue the patient that water set forth by vs in the last example And by and by assoone as he began to drinke thereof by the continuall space of twelue daies a greater abundance of water or mattrie substance came foorth without any hurt of the man or any great féeling but so that the second day it came foorth somewhat white and liquid But the thirde day a great deale whiter vntill it came foorth so white and thicke cleauing fast to the vessell wherin it was receaued that it would skantly runne out being turned downe but it ranne foorth euerie day lesse and lesse vntill the xii day in the which at length it stinted and the entrance of the wound did sodenly close vppe in the vtter parte thereof which although I did oftentimes open with my instrumentes yet did it send foorth neither matter or any such humor neither came the breath foorth there as before and so the cure procéeded the pacient being yet possessed with a continuall feuer Wherefore thrée daies together I added to that water of whole barly and Raisons brused with their kirnells and of Tamarinds ℥ .ij. And by this meanes the feuer ware away The tenth day after I found the man troubled with great paine in the brest and with a feuer And when I found that great abundance of water or watrie substance came out of the brest without matter after I had put in a tente there came foorth as yet more watrie or filthie corruption And so it was sixe dayes after casting foorth of the wound lesse matter euerie day After this the flaxe stinted and the wound healed And the man as yet by the helpe of God liueth and is verie well A generall rule for the Phisition and the Surgion THose which will take vpon them to make any confection or to minister Phisicke ought most especially to vnderstand the commodities comming of medicines and the same may be read in Auicene and other writers the qualities of simple medicines are to bée knowen also And what partes of the body they doe respect For there are medicines which do corroborate some peculiar part of the body as Mentha doth heate all the bodie but especially the stomacke which commeth to passe through a certaine sympathie that is to say a mutuall combinacion in naturall operacion of that hearbe and the stomacke as in an other place we haue spoken of Betonica Melissa Cucurbita Chamapithi Nux Muscala Camedri Lauro Centauria which respect the head ye must consider also in prescribing your decoctions that the thinges which be of a groser substance be put in the first place for rootes are to be decocted first and of longer time in the seconde place hearbes in the thirde séedes in the fourth fruites in the fifth flowers in the sixt spices And this is to bée noted also
