the Heart but in the ouer-part they spring foorth of him and is fastened as a aforesaid Furthermore the Heart hath two Ventricles or Concavities and the left is higher then the right and the cause of his hollownesse is this For to kéepe the blood for his nourishing and the ayre to abate and temper the great heate that hée is in the which is kept in Concavities Now héere it is to be noted that to the right Ventrickle of the Heart commeth a Veyne from the great Veyne called Venakelis that receiveth all the substance of the blood from the Liver And this Veyne that commeth from Venakelis entreth into the heart of the right Ventricle as I said before and in him is brought a great portion of the thickest blood to nourish the heart with and the residue that is left of this is made subtill through the vertue of the Heart and then this Blood is sent into a Concavity or pit in the midst of the Heart betwéene the two Ventricles and therein it is made hot and pured and then it passeth into the left Ventricle and there is ingendred in it a Spirit that is cléerer brighter and subtiller then any Corporall or Bodily thing that is engendred of the foure Elements For it is a thing that is a meane betwéene the Body and the Soule Wherefore it is likened of the Philosophers to be more liker heavenly things then earthly things Also it is to be noted that from the left Ventricle of the heart springeth two Arteirs the one having but one Coate and therefore it is called Arteria Venalis And this Arteir carryeth Blood from the Heart to the Lungs the which Blood is vaporous that is tryed and left of the Heart and is brought by this Artery to the Lungs to giue him Nutriment and there he receiveth of the Lungs ayre and bringeth it to the heart to refresh him with Wherefore Galen sayth that hée findeth that mans Heart is Naturall and friendly to the Lungs For he giveth him of his owne Mutrimentall to nourish him with and the Lungs reward him with ayre to refresh him with againe c. The other Artier that hath two Coates is called Vena Arterialis or the Great Artery that ascendeth and discendeth and of him springeth all the other Arteirs that spred to euery member of the Body for by him is vnited and quickned all the members of the Body For the Spirit that is retained in them is the instrument or treasure of all the vertue of the Soule And thus it passeth vntill it come to the Braine and there he is turned into a further digestion and there hée taketh another Spirit and so is made animall and at the Liver nutrimentall and at the Testikles generatiue and thus it is made a spirit of euery kind so that hée being meane of all manner operations and workings taketh effect Two causes I find why these Arteirs haue two Coates One is that one Coate is not sufficient nor able to withstand the violent mooving and stirring of the Spirit of life that is carryed in them The second cause is that the thing that is carryed about from place to place is of so precious a Treasure that it had the more néed of good kéeping And of some Doctors this Artier is called the Pulsatiue Veyne or the beating Veyne for by him is perceived the power and might of the Heart c. Wherefore God and Nature haue ordained that the Arteirs haue two Coates Also there is in the Heart thrée Pellikles opening and closing the going in of the Heart blood and spirit in convenient time Also the Heart hath two little Eares by whom commeth in and passeth out the Ayre that is prepared for the Lungs Also there is found in the Heart a Cartilaginous Auditament to helpe and strengthen the selfe Heart Also the Heart is covered with a strong Pannicle which is called of some Capsula Cordes or Paricordium the which is a strong case vnto whom commeth Nerues as to other inward members And this Pannicle Pericordium springeth of the vpper Pannicle of the Midriffe And of him springeth another Pannicle called Mediastinum the which departeth the Breast in the midst and kéepeth that the Lungs fall not over the Heart Also there is another Pannicle that covereth the Ribs inwardly that is called Plura of whom the Midriffe taketh his beginning And it is said of many Doctors that Duramater is the Originall of all the Pannicles within the Body and thus one taketh of another CHAP. VIII The Anatomy of the Lungs THE Lungs is a member Spermatick of the first Creation and his naturall complexion is cold and dry and in his accidentall complexion he is cold and moyst lapped in a Neruous Pannicle because it should gather together the softer substance of the Lungs and that the Lungs might féele by the meanes of the Pannicle that which he might not féele in himselfe Now to proue the Lungs to bée cold and dry of kind it appeareth by his swift stirring for hée lyeth ever waving ouer the Heart and about the Heart And that hée is cold and moyst in reward it appeareth well that he receiveth of the Braine many cold matters as Cataries and Rheumes whose substance is thinne Also I find in the Lungs thrée kinds of substance One is a Veyne comming from the Liver bringing with him the Crude or raw part of the Chylle to féed the Lungs Another is Arteria Venealis comming from the Heart bringing with him the spirit of life to nourish him with The third is Trachia Arteria that bringeth in ayre to the Lungs and it passeth through all the left part of them to doe his Office The Lungs is divided into fiue Lobbes or Pellikeles or fiue portions that is to say thrée in the right side and two in the left side And this was done for this cause that if there fell any hurt in the one part the others should serue and doe their office And thrée causes I find why the Lungs were principally ordained First that they should draw cold wind and refresh the Heart The second that they should change and alter and purifie the ayre before it come to the Heart lest the heart were hurt and annoyed with the quantity of the ayre The third cause is that they should receiue from the heart the fumous superfluities that he putteth foorth with his breathing c. Behind the Lungs toward the Spondels passeth Myre or Isofagus of whom it is spoken of in the Anatomy of the Necke And also there passeth both Veynes and Arteirs and all these with Trachia Arteria doe make a Stoke replete vnto the Gullet with the Pannicles and strong Ligaments and Glandulus flesh to fulfill the voyd places And last of all is the Midriffe and it is an officiall member made of two Pannicles and Lazartus flesh and his place is in the midst of the body over-thwart or in breath vnder the region of the Spirituall members departing them from the

Theoricke and Practique Theoricke to know and practise to worke the ground of Theorique Theoricke is to know the Elements and humours that commeth of them which is for mans health or against it Letchcraft teaches vs causes effects and Signes Signes to know the causes and effects and therefore I treate of signes and many signes doth belong to Physicke and Chirurgery as Crisses Vrine Pounces Vomits Sege and other Chirurgery is in Woundes Impostumes and Algebro and Chirurgery holdeth foure parts viz. wounds and Impostumes Algebra and Anthonte Antidotary is the fift which is a kind of Salues against all kind of Sores that belongeth to Chyrurgery Algebra is broken bones and bones out of joynt Antidotory of Chirurgery is in Waters Powders Oyles Oyntments and Emplaisters most principall some must bée repercussiue some Mole●●catiue some Maturatiue some generatiue and some Corosiue Anatomy is to know the Body of man thorow-out and all his members within and without two members hath every manner of man viz. principall and officiall and foure principall every man hath viz.

Attractiue Digestiue Deminsiue Expalsiue Retentiue and a Simulatiue that is in the English drawing and breaking out putting holding and liking For first Nature draweth in that which it néedeth to liue by and then all to breake it and then departeth the good from the bad and holdeth to it the good and then dealeth the good to all the members of the Body Officiall members bée those that haue certaine Offices in mans body where ever they bée as the Eye to sée the Eare to heare the Hand to touch the Mouth to speake the Féet to goe and many such other Also such are called members as branches from the principall to the officiall as the Arme or Legge that rooteth in the principall and brancheth to the officialls and so Nerues Artiers Veynes Lygaments Cords Bones Pannicles and Gristles Flesh and Skinne to teach them their Office But Nerues Veynes and Artiers bée most needfull for they bée Welles and Roo●es of all other Nerues comming from the Braine and Artiers from the Heart and Veynes from the Liver into all the body Nerues giveth to the Body féeling and mooving and Arteirs leaving and Veynes encreasing A Veyne hath but one Tunacle and an Artier hath two in the one runneth bloud and in the other spirits and all beating Veynes bée Artiers the which I call Pulses and all other bée simple Veynes and all such members saving Flesh alone are melancholieus and their nature is Sperme but flesh is Sanguine and therefore it may bée sodered bée it never so much cut but the other said members because their matter is Sperme may never be sodered if they bée much cut And thus much at this time I say of Anatomy And now will I speake of Wounds which is the second part of Chirurgery one of these foure intentions hath every Chirurgion The first is to containe that that is evill loosed The second is to loose that that is evill contained The third is to take away that that is too much The fourth is to increase that that is too little In these foure entents standeth all Chirurgery The first is in Wounds the second is Impostumes the third and fourth Algebra holdeth Wounds be in many manners Simple and Compound Simple in the flesh alone and compound in seven manners There the vi● things that letteth a wound not lightly to heale viz.

marke the spreading for as it is of the one so it is of the other as thus when the branch is in the Arme-pit there hée is divided into two branches The one Branch goeth along in the inner side of the arme vntill it come to the bough of the Arme and there it is called Bazilica or Epatica and so goeth downe the Arme till it come to the wrist and there it is turned to the backe of the Hand and it is found betwéene the little finger and the next and there it is called Salvatella Now to the other Branch that is in the Arme-hole which spreadeth to the vtter side of the shoulder and there he divideth in two the one goeth spreading vp into the carnous part of the Head and after descendeth through the Bone into the Braine as it is declared in the Anatomy of the head The other branch goeth on the outward side of the Arme and there he is divided into two also the one part is ended at the hand and the other part is folded about the arme till it appeare in the bouget of the arme and there is called Sephalica from thence it goeth to the backe of the hand and appeareth betwéene the Thumbe and the foremost finger and there it is called Sephalica Ocularis The two Branches that I speake of which be divided in the hinder part of the shoulders from each of these two I say springeth one and those two méete together and make one Veyne which appeareth in the bough of the Arme and there it is called Mediana or Coadialis or Commine And thus it is to be vnderstood that of Vena Sephalica springeth Vena Ocularis and of Vena Bazilica springeth Vena Salvatella and of the two Veynes that méete springeth Vena Mediana and in ramefying from these fiue principall Veynes springeth innumerable of the which a Chirurgion hath no great charge for it sufficeth vs to know the principals To speake of Arteirs you shall vnderstand that wheresoever there is found a Veyne there is an Arteir vnder him and if there be found a great Veyne there is found a great Artier and whereas is a little Veyne there is a little Artier for wheresoeuer there goeth a Veyne to giue nutriment there goeth an Artier to bring the spirit of life Wherefore it is to bée noted that the Artiers lye more déeper in the flesh then the Veynes doe for they carry and kéepe in them more precious blood then doth the Veyne and therefore hée hath néed to bée further from dangers outwardly and therefore God and Nature haue ordained for him to be closed in two Coates where the Veyne hath but one The Breast of Thorax is the Arke or Chest of the spirituall members of man as saith the Philosopher where it is to bée noted that there be foure things containing and right contained as thus The foure containing are the Skinne Musculus flesh the Pappes and the Bones The parts contained are the Heart the Lunges Pannicles Lygaments Nerues Veynes Artiers Myre or Isofagus Now the Skinne and the flesh are knowne in their Anatomy It is to be noted that the flesh of the Pappes differeth from the other flesh of the body for it is white glandulus and spongeous and there is in them both Nerues Veines and Artiers and by them they haue Coliganes with the Heart the Liver the Braine and the Generatiue members Also there is in the Breast as old Authors make mention lxxx or xc Muscles for some of them be common to the Necke some to the Shoulders and to the Spades some to Dyafragma or the Mydriffe some to the Ribbes some to the Backe and some to the Breast it selfe But I find certaine profitablenesse in the creation of the Pappes as well in man as in woman for in man it defendeth the spirituals from annoyance outwardly and another by their thicknesse they comfort the naturall heate in defiance of the spirits And in women there is the generation of Milke for in women there commeth from the Matrix into their Breasts many Veynes which bring into them Menstruall blood the which is turned through the digestiue vertue from red colour into white like the colour of the Pappes even as Chilley comming from the stomacke to the Liver is turned into the colour of the Liver Now to speake of the Bones of the Breast they bée said to bée triple or thrée fold and they be numbred to the seven in the Breast before and their length●s according to the breadth of the Breast and there extremities or ends be gristly as the Ribbes be And in the vpper end of Thorax is an hole or a concavity in which is set the foot of the Furkle-bone or Cannel-bone and in the nether end of Thorax against the mouth of the Stomacke hangeth a a Gristle called Ensiforme and this Gristle was ordained for two causes One is that it should defend the stomacke from hurt outwardly The second is that in time of fulnesse it should giue place to the stomacke in time of néed when it desireth c. Now to speake of the parts of the Backe behind foorth There be twelue Spondels through whom passeth Mynuca of whom springeth twelue paire of Nerues bringeth bath féeling and mooving to the Muscles of the Breast aforesayd And héere it is to be noted that in every side there be twelue Ribs that is to say seven true and fiue false because these fiue bée not so long as the other seven be and therefore called false Ribs as it may be perceived by the sight of the Eye Likewise of the parts that be inwardly and first of the Heart because hée is the principall of all other members and the beginning of life hée is set in the middest of the Breast severally by himselfe as Lord and King of all members And as a Lord or a King ought to be served of his Subjects that haue their living of him so are all other members of the Body subjects to the Heart for they receiue their living of him and they doe service many wayes vnto him againe The substance of the Heart is as it were Lazartus Flesh but it is spermaticke and an officiall member and the beginning of life and hée giveth to every member of the Body both blood of life and spirit of breath and heate for if the Heart were of Lazartus flesh his mooving and stirring should be voluntary and not naturall but the contrary is true for it were impossible that the Heart should be ruled by Will onely and not by Nature The Heart hath the shape and forme of a Pine-apple and the broad end thereof is vpwards and the sharpe end is downewards depending a little towards the left side And hée it is to be noted that the Heart hath blood in his substance whereas all other members haue it but in their Veines and Arteirs Also the Heart is bound with certaine Ligaments to the backe part of the Breast but these Lygaments touch not the substance of

that stretcheth along from the stomacke to the mouth by the which he draweth to him meate and drinke as it were hands And hée hath Transverse will for to with-hold or make retention And also the vtter Pannicle hath Latitudinall will to expulse and put out and that by his heate he should kéepe the digestiue vertue of the stomacke and by other heates given by his Neighbours as thus It hath the Liver on the right side chasing and beating him with his lobes or figures and the Splene on the left side with his fatnesse and Veynes sending to him Melancholy to exercise his appetites and about him is the heart quickning him with his ●rtiers Also the Braine sending to him a Branch of Nerues to giue him féeling And he hath on the hinder part descending from the parts of the backe many Lygaments with the Artiers joyned to the Spondels of the Backe The forme or figure of this stomacke is long in likenesse of a Goorde crooked and that both holes bée in the vpper part of the body of it because there should be no going out of it vnadvisedly of those things which are received into it The quantity of the stomack commonly holdeth two Pitchers of water and it may suffer many passions and the nother mouth of the stomacke is narrower then the vpper and that for thrée causes The first cause is that the vpper receiveth meate great and boysterous in substance that there being made subtill it might passe into the nether The second is for by him passeth all the meates with their chilosity from the stomacke to the Liver The third is for that through him passeth all the drosse of the stomack to the guts And this sufficeth for the stomacke c. The Liver is a principle member and officiall and of his first creation spermaticke complete in quantity of blood of himselfs insensible but by accidence he is insensible and in him is made the second digestion and is lapped in a sinowie Pannicle And that he is a principle member it appeareth onely by the Philosophers by Avicen and Galen And it is officiall as is the stomacke and it is of spermatick matter and sinowie of the which is ingendred his Veines And because it was like in quantity Nature hath added to it crudded blood to the accomplishment of sufficient quantity and is lapped in a sinowie Pannicle And why the Liver is crudded is because the Chile which commeth from the stomacke to the Liver should be turned into the colour of blood And why the Liver was ordained was because that all the nutrimentall blood bée engendred in him The proper place of the Liver is vnder the false Ribbes in the right side The forme of the Liver is gibbous or bunchie on the backe side and it is somewhat hollow like the inside of an hand And why it is so shapen is that it should bée plyable to stomacke like as a hand doth to an Apple to comfort her digestion for his heate is to the stomacke as the heate of the fire is to the Pot or Cauldron that hangeth over it Also the Lungs is bound with his Pellikles to the Diafragma and with strong Ligaments And also hée hath Coliganes with the stomacke and the Intrailes and with the Heart and the Reynes the Testikles and other members And there are in him fiue Pellikles like fiue fingers Galen calleth the Liver Messa Sanguinaria containing in it selfe foure substances Naturall and Nutrimentall The Naturals is sent with the blood to all parts of the body to be engendred and nourished And the Nutrimentals be sequestrate and sent to places ordained for some helpings These are the places of the Humours the blood in the Liver Choller in the Chest or Gall Melancholy to the Splene Flegme to the Lungs and the Iunctures the watery superfluities to the Reynes and Vesike And they goe with the Blood and sometime they putrifie and make Fevers and some bée put out to the Skinne and bée rosolved by sweat or by Scabs by Pushes or by Impostumes And these foure naturall Humours that is to say Sanguine Choler Melancholy and Flegme be engendred and distributed in this manner First yée shall vnderstand that from the Spermaticke matter of the Liver inwardly there is engendred two great Veynes of the which the first and the greatest is called Porta and commeth from the concavity of the Liver of whom springeth all the small Veynes Miseraices and these Miseraices be to Vena Porta as the branches of a Trée bée to the stocke of a Trée For some of them bée contained with the bottome of the stomacke some with Duodenum some with Jejunium some with Yleon and some with Monoculus or Saccus And from all these Guts they bring to Vena Porta the succosity of Chiley going from the stomacke and distribute it into the substance of the Liver And these Veynes Miseraices be innumerable And in these Veynes begun the second Digestion and ended in the Liver like as it is in the stomacke the first Digestion So it proveth that Vena Porta and Vena Miseraices serue to bring all the succozity of all the meate and drink that passeth the stomacke to the Liver and they spread themselves thorough the substance of the Liver inwardly and all they stretch towards the gibous or bowing part of the Liver and there they méete and goe all into one Vnity and make the second great Veyne called Vena Ulis or Concava or Vena Ramosa all is one and he with his Rootes draweth out all the bloud engendred from the Liver and with his branches Ramefying vpwards and downewards carryeth and convayeth it to all other Members of the Body to bée nourished with where is made perfect the third digestion And also there goeth from the Liver Veynes bearing the superfluites of the third Digestion to their proper places as it shall be declared hereafter Now to speake of the Gall or of the Chest of the Gall It is an officiall member and it is supermaticke and sinowie and hath in it a subtiill Will and it is a purse or a Panniculer Vesikle in the hollownesse of the Liver about the middle Pericle or Lobe ordained to receiue the Cholericke superfluities which are engendred in the Liver The which purse or bagge hath thrée holes or Neckes By the first hée draweth to him from the Liuer the Choller that the Blood be not hurt by the Choller By the second Necke hée sendeth to the bottome of the stomacke Choler the further the Digestion of the stomacke And by the third Necke hée sendeth the Choler regularly from one Gut to another to clense them of their superfluities and Drosse and the quantity of the purse may containe in it halfe a pinte c. And next is the Splene or the milte the which is a supermaticke member as are other members and officiall and is the receptory of the Melancholious superfluities that are engendred in the Liues and his place is on the left side
