with the water Florum Tiliae Tilia is a tree bearing fruit as great as a bean round in which are seeds like to Aniceseeds some call it the Linden tree or the like for it is most good to take away the Phlegmatick tumour as well within the body as without There is no necessity of discovering any other of these Medicines now because it is not my intent in this place for I have not brought in these two in this place but onely to shew that one may cure these kinds of Maladies and severall others without having recourse to Phlebotomy of which Medicines the Learned Chirurgion will know how to make use according as he shall see occasion and will invent others according as necessity shall require But above all I intreat those who shall read this little treatise that they will not sleight it for I have not taken pen in hand to Teach but to give wholesome advice and Councell for the sick and most necessary for the augmentation of the honour which the true Chirurgions aspire unto and which is more to provoke to do better as I have said elsewhere to the end that doing and persuing from good to better we may go into heaven with God to whom Father Son and holy Spirit be honour and glory Amen CHAP. VI. Of Veins to be blooded for several Infirmities which come upon mens bodies also of the use and benefit of Cupping-glasses with scarrification and without scarrification what must be observed in that Operation lastly of Horsleeches ALthough it is true I have with good reason here before said that it is not needful to blood for all maladies and at random without any consideration as is done ordinarily yet I shall not omit to describe the number of the veins proper to be blooded with the benefit of opening them together with the use of Cuping-glasses and Horsleeches for I shall thereby please the Galienists and Paracelsians and it is also the end which I have respected Let us begin then at the Vein in the middle of the fore-head which is between the two eye-browes usually called

sick person in the Rigor of the seavor for he that doth it is the Cutter of his throat But if the feavour doth not increase and also doth not decrease and we do not hope for any declination of it in such a case you must not lose this onely occasion of blooding although it be worse then in the declination of the fit In the hand-gout and the foot-gout one may open the veins of the foot or the hand for the Migren the Arteries and veines of the Temples and by this evacuation of the blood which floweth with the Arthritique powers and the boyling spirits which evacuate the pain presently ceaseth But in the intermitting feavour blooding ought to be not after the third accesse or fit as Galen would have it but in the beginning but this evacuation of the blood ought to be understood to be if there be Plethory in the body and fulnesse of the vessells and for the breathing and refreshing of the Masse of humors for otherwise there should be no evacuation of the blood because it is the bridle of the Choler In the quartain feavour or again if the blood do abound you must take some from the Mediane or Basilique of the left Arme or from the splenique veine with this Caution that if the blood do shew it self black and dull or thick you may let it run but on the contrary you must stop it pre●ently if it shew it self fresh and well coloured In the cure of the Fehris Synochus a continuall feavor the benefit of Phlebotomy causes the opening of the belly and the sweatings to issue forth very abundantly a thing much to be wished in this kinde of feaver which moved Galen to say that one ought to bleed in this case even untill Lipothemie but notwithstanding fearing that one should let slip the soul with the blood one ought rather to reiterate it severall times as much as the strength of the sick party can bear it even in the burning feaver espece de Tierce continue one ought to blood in a good quantity if the powers the age and other Circumstances do permit In like manner you ought to blood in the quartain feaver Glistering first for the doing whereof Artificially you must open the veine of the left Arme which hath more Communication with the Spleen to which the most part of this feaver is often heaped We say also that in Pestilent feavers we must not indifferently as is done presently when they see the person strook with the plague prescribe him blooding which hath been often times the cause of the death of an infinite Number of persons but if the matter be urgent in quantity quality and Motion I must draw a conclusion That in the Plague occasioned by the viciousnesse of the Ayre with fulnesse of blood and humors Blooding I say together with purgation are there necessary which is held sorth by the saying of Celsus Cels Lib. 3. Ch. 7. That forasmuch as the Plague is an Active and Tempestative disease you must quickly use remedyes even with rashness Wherefore you must consider if the person infected hath a burning feaver and great repletion in the Conduits and that the virtue be strong which may be known by the veins being full and stretched the eyes and the face greatly inflamed also sometimes in spitting blood with great beating of the Arteries of the Temples pain in the throat pain or difficulty in breathing pricking or shooting throughout the body with exceeding heavinesse and dulnesse the waters or urine being red thick and troubled in such case you must blood presently to help nature to discharge her-self least the naturall heat be suffocated by the aboundance of blood Then you must rather breathe the Basilique veine of the left side then the right because the heart and the spleen are much affected in this disease and take abundance of blood thence according as you shall see necessary alwaies having respect to the power and virtue of the sick person and taking heed not to blood whilst the shivering of the feaver is upon him Observations in blooding for the difference of the disease But you must here take notice that in such a repletion of blood blooding must be otherwise performed in a simple Pestilent seaver than in that which is accomplished with a Bubon or Carbuncle for if the one or both together be conjunct with the great and furious seaver then it is requisite to open the veine nearer to the Apostume or plague soare and according to the rectitude of feavers to the end that thereby the blood may be draw a forth and evacuated directly in regard that all retraction and Re●ulsion of infected blood towards the Noble parts is prohibited by all good Physitians and Chirurgions But enough of the feaver untill we speak of Symptomatiques And beginning at Tumors in generall I say that if there be repletion in the whole body you must purge and blood and besides makes frictions and Bathings As in the Cure of the true Phlegmon you must divert the flux which will be turned away if we take away the cause thereof to wit the Chachochimie or Plethory which is to be done by purging first but chiefly by Phlebotomy Come we now to the Erisipela for if it be in the face and doth possesse it very much Phlebotomy is very necessary to it which must be performed upon the Cephalique veine in like manner Phlebotomy is necessary if there be some portion of blood mingled with the Choller but if it be in any other part and be not in great quantity and be made of pure Choller Phlebotomy is not necessary because the blood is the Bridle of the Choller as we have made mention before besides the Cancre is cured most commonly by purging and Phlebotomy For the Tumors in particular being a Parotide we say that Phleb is therein very necessary specially when there is rednesse in the part which demonstrates great inflammation abundance of blood also for the kernells great and swelled you must purge but specially purge and apply Cupping-glasses behind the shoulders with scarifications to the end to obviate the accidents which may come thereupon as suffocation and consequently Choaking The same remedy is necessary to the Tumor or inflammation and relaxation of the Vvula called by the Latines Collumella Also for Esquinancy the Chirurgian ought to be ready and prompt in reguard this disease doth not give great Leasure wherefore he must blood the sick parts on the Basilique on that side where the fluxion is and the same day on the veines under the tongue to evacuate the Conjunct matter Let us speak of Fellons or whitlows the curing whereof consists onely in blooding and purgations but yet notwithstanding further according to the prudence of the good Chirurgion Come we now to Wounds wherein for the Little ones there is no great necessity of blooding but in the great where there is danger of fluxion or where the body is repleate as in wounds of the
