wine operate for feare of some concealed snake under the hearbes And doubtlesse the moderat use of wine for the animation of the soldiers the inlivening of the Magistrate and recoverie of women is profitable Especially in hystericall sits according to Hippocrates Hipp I denatura Mulierum And my transision now shall be to the tempers of humane bodyes in generall the wynes generally agreeing with those tempers and then more particularly to this or that individual Temper it selfe beeing the reason of mixture or the harmony and consent of the prime qualities in Elements and by the Exuberancie of each simple quality these foure symple tempers are created as hot when the heat predominateth over the cold and yet of siccity and moisture remaineth an equallity and so of the rest as cold dry and moist besides these foure conjugate tempers which proceed from the exuberancy of the two first qualities as hot and moist hot and dry cold and moist cold and dry which are the foure compound tempers their fixation consisting in that oleaginous humour which wee call innatum calidum and this innate so utile and necessary as a cause with out which mixt bodys cannot subsist 't is also fomented and supported by fluent heat contracted in the heart veines and Arteries as their proper Channels consisting of spirituall blood preserved in the heart as the middle of the body which by a lively consent doth maintaine support innate heat and perfect the universal temper of the body even as the Sun inliveneth and inlightne h the great world so doth the heart ejaculate a fluent heat to the vivisication of the microcosine or little world of humane bodys refreshing every part and exciting every particular function to its proper motion so as the innate or fixt spirit doth very much respond the fluent and such resiprocall concordance is as necessary as circulation in the sun whose motion being stopt or influence extinguished but one hower would be the ruine of the whole world and if such a cause may be admitted as some call causa sine quâ non then this comerce between fluent and fixt heat may be so accepted for otherwise all naturall actions are quiet and extinct therefore these beeing the prime existence and subsistence of humane nature and such powerfull agents in conformation and nutrition their spheare of motion may be more or lesse adapted by external meanes either homogeniall or heterogeneall And for tempers or distempers in generall there can be no aliment or medicament so convenient and agreeable as wine for the smallest wine if pure is a more neat clear pabulum to the fluent spirits then recent egges or milke sucked from any creature they all onerating nature with some excrement after concoction and in concoction must be some expence both of fluent and fixt heart which is so much an abbreviation to a naturall beeing but is of such puretie and spirituality as doth receive a sudden mutation and in its alteration addeth both light heat to the foresaid principles as the oyl of those natural lampes Fernelius apprehendeth much danger either in meat or medicine which are onerous to the principles of nature and therefore will have all cold diseases admit of a more safe remedie then hot distempers because in the regular way of cureing by contraries the application of hot remedies to cold affects doth foment maintaine naturall heat contrarily in the application of cold remedies in hot distempers to extinguish preternatural heart the naturall heate doth suffer much and many tymes is extinct with praeternaturall or febrill heat but in both cold and hot affects the application of wine upon proper indication is the most Excellent and in ofensive remedie And that it is such a remedy I shal pro duce som probable Arguments to make it more apparant to vulger intellects after this subsequent mode If it were by the most learned Auntients in Medicine adhibited as a safe remedy in fevers then it acounted proper in hot distempers for thus it hath been administered by them as hath been demonstrated in our former discourse and wil be more apparant in our following of the particular and most grand affects of humane bodyes And if it hath also been derected and ordained by the same authoritie in cold distempers then it is a proper remedie and approved in both And if we perpend the specifical differences of wines then wee shal make it a regular remedie according to the rule of Contrariety for Wyne that is generous moveth in all tempers from the Centure to the circumference and other Wynes in their proper nature more apperient open obstructions and in a Galenicall sense all oppilations are efficient causes of putrefaction and putrefaction of fevers so that opening being a contrary motion to obstruction Wine is a contrarie remedie per se in oppilation Et per accidens in putrid fevers Now I shal descend to particular and difficult effects controverted amongst the Most learned and where I find them differ in this poynt shal endeavour to reconcile them for the satisfaction of greener students and practicers less perite which after industrie wil effect not but his undertaking would better become a more learned pen and Person of a more settled condition then a person so many yeares Exiled with his deare soveraigne and patient Master yet I shal proceed in the first place to that affect which wee nominate a Frency which in truth is more properly the termination of al discourse it selfe being the privation of discourse conjunct with a fever and in this case whither wine may be commonly adhibited is the difference amongst the ancient Hippoc. lib. de affect intern some commending others doubting Hippocrates affirmeth the use of wine convenient in all perturbations of the mind Tralianus in the same condition where the spirits are Spent the ventricle cold and debil and upon the appearance of some concoction in vigilancie or defect of rest because of its narcotique qualitie which is most sure agreable to humane nature and for this special reason Epicurus hath taken it in large proportion not only in all painfull affects but also in the article of death in a palsie also which affect obtayneth amongst the Grecians many appellations Galen 2. Gal. 1. Scil Paralisia and Gal paraplexià by the major part of Phisitians to be apprehended of the same signification and that all the tearms signifie privation of sense and motion in a sensible moving part Whither wine be useful in this affect is much controverted Halyabbas and Avicen in this case appeare Hydroposians or water drinkers and render this reasō for the non adhibition of wine in this affect because say they Wine is a proper vehicle of humors to the nerues by its sharpnes or pungent qualitie doth enervate and by consequent foment the disease To which I answer that no kind of wine moderately taken and with out any mixture can or doth enervate quatenus vinum because it
