A50438	The method and means of enjoying health, vigour, and long life adapting peculiar courses for different constitutions, ages, abilities, valetudinary states, individual proprieties, habituated customs, and passions of mind : suting preservatives and correctives to every person for attainment thereof / by Everard Maynwaringe, M.D.	Maynwaringe, Everard, 1628-1699?	1683 (1683)	Wing M1498; ESTC R31212	85,718	240

each other and conducing to the general design of the whole in a compleat order and exquisite method of contrivance promoting and moving one another in their distinct Offices Now if one Wheel goes too fast too slow or stops the rest that depend upon that motion also are disordered and move irregularly So is it in the Body of Man If the Stomach be clogged and the digestion sluggish the supply from thence will not come in due time to the other faculties to operate upon and if the Chyliferous matter sent from the Stomach be not well transmuted and qualified the rest of the digestive faculties cannot so well perform their task because the alimentary matter is not transmitted to them proper and sutable but imperfect aliene and degenerate Most men experimentally and sensibly know that meat and drink transgressing either in quantity or quality or unseasonably taken does abate and injure a good Stomach and depraves the digestion which defect redounds to the detriment of the whole and all the body suffers by it and every faculty in time will share in the prejudice So that of necessity there must be rules observed and bounds set in the use of these things without which mans body is soon put out of frame and the regular Oeconomy thereof discomposed and disordered To prove and illustrate this farther by instance fresh Air is necessary to ventilate the body and chear the spirits of man and he that is pent up within doors is deprived of that great enlivener and refresher of Nature but on the contrary he that is exposed abroad to the night Air is as much damaged as the other and both prove injurious and destructive So that although the open Air be good and necessary for the healthful being of Man yet not at all times not in any condition and upon any terms but sutable and convenient with the state of our bodies as Nature hath appointed for you and not otherwise So likewise for Exercise and Rest Method and Rule is to be observed for if there be not seasons allotted and a moderation used in these they both are destructive though in a contrary way and by different mediums To sleep when you should wake or wake when you should sleep are both injurious and impairing of health to invert the order of Nature by sleeping in the day and watching in the night is incongruous and unsutable with your bodies because it crosseth the designment of Nature When the Sun riseth the spirits of Men are then most apt and fit for Action are then most lively brisk and chearful in their functions but when the Sun sets and the Air is cloathed with darkness the spirits then begin to droop grow more dull and heavy incline to rest retirement and a cessation Now to spur up and rouze the spirits when they naturally would be taking their ease and respite or laying a clog upon them by your sluggishness and somnolent postures when Nature calls upon them for action by darting the glittering light through the Air with which they are affected and raised up these are great injuries and affronts to Nature in acting counter to her commands and institutions for which you must suffer the penalty and that is the forfeiting your health for this unnatural disobedience and these irrational courses These Precautions and Rules I will assure you are not our inventions to curb your darling inclinations and restrain you of your just liberty but they are the Institutions and Law of Nature enjoyned to be observed for your own preservation and well being and as bounds set to check your extravagant pernicious actions and all for the tuition and safety of your life and health and to preserve the regular harmony through the whole course of Nature And although it be an old saying as foolish as common Qui Medicè vivit miserè vivit He that lives strictly by rule lives miserably yet I must affirm the contrary grounded upon pure reason and the preceding discourse that he which does not observe the injunctions the due method and regular course of Nature does both shorten his life and takes away much of the pleasure of it by procuring an uncomfortable and unhealthy body I know Every of you would live long but especially in health you would fain continue and prolong your youth your beauty and ability of parts you are frighted at the thoughts of a wrinkled face or a restless bed an unwholsom diseased body and a decripid loathsom old Age But yet you will not avoid these evils that you so much fear you will not take the pains to prevent them and secure your self you rather take more pains and undergo more trouble to procure them than there can be in avoiding them nay you lose the true pleasure of your life to purchase these Inconveniencies But what those things are which so warily and chiefly you are to observe wherein consists your health and well-being have now been hinted but generally the due method course and cautions you are to take in the use of them particularly shall be handled in their due place and order following SECT V. The choice of Air and Places of Abode Shewing the benefits and injuries that arise from different Air. AIR is so necessary to Life that without it we cannot subsist which surrounding us about and being continually suckt and drawn in must needs affect the body with its conditions and properties and by observation you may find your Body by the various constitutions and changes in the Air to be variously affected well and ill disposed of which infirm parts are most sensible that they prognosticate before an alteration come The mind also by the mediation of the spirits is drawn into consent and hath its dispositions and variations from thence When the Air is close thick and moist the spirits are more dull heavy and indisposed but at the appearance of the Sun and a serene Skie the Spirits are unfettered vigorous and active the mind more chearful airy and pleasant The Spirits are of an aetherial Nature and therefore do much sympathize with the present constitution and change of Air for from the Air drawn in by the motion of the vital parts are the vital spirits ventilated and the blood volatized therefore the pureness of the Air makes much for the purity of the spirits and mass of blood A gross impure and noysom Air obtunds and deads the spirits makes a slow Pulse obstructs the Pores and hinders ventilation generates superfluous humors and causeth putrefaction A serene sweet thin Air perfumes and purifies an unwholsome body cherisheth the heart makes a lively pulse and much enliveneth the vital spirits rarifies and volatizeth a gross coagulate blood opens the pores for transpiration of putrid and offensive vapours acuates and sharpens the Appetite and helps digestion The best Air and most agreeable to temperate bodies is in temperate Climates for heat cold wet and dry not subject to sudden and violent changes as in some parts of America

in the market may prove bad meat at the table at least not so good and your stomach must fare the worse for the Cook And farther you are to understand that the true ordering and preparing of meat is much to be regarded as matter whereon your health and welfare does in part depend for as your food is better or worse so will your body be in better or worse state and thrive thereby And it is not sufficient that your meat does not stink but also that the spirituous part thereof be preserved which gives a lively and pure nourishment and therefore meat long kept is not so wholesom and good as that which is fresh killed From hence in part it does rationally appear how and why the Scurvy does so much abound in England we being great flesh-eaters but concerning the procuring causes of this Disease I have sufficiently treated elsewhere Tract of the Scurvy Fifthly In the choice of meats consider Custom what you have been long used to and made familiar to nature by long time and use is more agreeing than novelties and unwonted food which is apt to cause some alteration therefore be sparing at first when a new Diet offers it self as upon change of places and Countries and afterwards upon further use and experience of agreement you may be bolder with this or that sort of meat And as for such whose feeding hath not been so good and proper for them as it ought change for a better and come off from the other by degrees Nulla subita mutatio est bona Sixthly Change your diet according to the seasons of the year the variation of your body and inclination to this or that distemper In Winter more meat and less drink in Summer less meat and more liquids in Summer meats oftner boiled in Winter roasted A hot and dry body must have a cooling and moist diet a cold and moist body a hot and dry diet temperate bodies are preserved by temperate things and their like distempered bodies are rectified and reduced by dissimilars The more simple and single your diet is the better and more wholesom but if your stomach must have variety let it be at several meals and so you may please your Palate without prejudice Accustom not your self to delicacies and compound-dishes the heterogeneity of their nature begets a discordant fermentation in the stomach troubling concoction from whence eructations nauseous belchings and offensive risings in the throat Quò simplicior victûs ratio eò melior Seventhly Use not meat that hath any quality in extream that is over-seasoned or sauced as very salt very hot sowre binding or the like but keep to those that are moderate in tast and natural Eighthly Consider the condition of your stomach of what sort it is whether strong or weak in digestion and sute your diet in general accordingly Therefore accustom strong stomachs to strong meats the weaker to lighter of digestion for very light meats in strong stomachs are soon digested but they do not maintain and keep the digestive faculty in its vigour and strength Solid hard meats in weak stomachs lie long and heavy and pass away crude and undigested Meats in respect of their facility and difficulty in digestion are termed heavy and light which you may distinguish and know them thus Heavy meats be such as are more dry hard solid and dense gross course and tough or over moist slimy and cold requiring a longer time in fermentation for retexture volatization and digestion before they be fit to pass off the stomach And they are either so in their Nature as all old flesh Bull-Beef and Oxe Brawn Pork Venison Hare Goose Duck Swan Crane Bittern Heron and most Water-Fowl Eels Mackrel Sturgeon Muscles Shad Tench Stock-fish c. Beans Pease when they be something old brown Bread Barley and Rie Bread Also some parts are of harder digestion than other as Brains Hearts Livers except of tame Fowl Birds and some very young flesh Milts Kidneys Skin Meats made heavy or made worse than in their own nature by preparation keeping and dressing as dryed fryed and broyled meats meats long salted and kept as Bacon hang'd Beef and long powdered old Ling salt Cod Haberdine pickled Herrings red Herrings pickled Scallops Sturgeon salt Salmon hard Eggs tosted Cheese tosted Bread especially if it be scorched Crusts Pye-crust Bread not well baked unleavened meats over baked hard and dry long kept meats roasted dry or scorched Light meats and of quicker digestion be such as are most soft and tender rare as it is opposed to density therefore sooner penetrated by the stomachical ferment succulent volatile soon fermenting and yielding to digestion As young tender flesh of Veal Mutton Lamb Kid Pullet Capon Chicken Conies Turkie Pheasant Partridge Plover Woodcock Snite Heath-Cocks and small Birds Whiting Smelt Oister Flounder Soles Plaise Thornback Turbut Trout Carp Pike Bream Pearch and such like Rere Eggs Milk Wheat Bread white light and well baked also Oaten Bread well made And these light meats may be divided into two sorts that is meats very light as Smelt Plaise Oister Rere Eggs sucking Rabbits Chickens Whitings and such like and meats indifferent light as young Mutton Lamb Veal Very light meats are soon digested apt to be corrupted in strong stomachs breed tender and effeminate bodies soft and loose flesh easily lost solid strong meats are slower in digestion not easily corrupted slow in distribution make strong bodies firm hard flesh and durable Now by these eight Rules every one may make a good choice of meats in a state of health and reasonably instruct himself for the preservation thereof which Rules also will guide the valetudinary and sickly persons The Quantity next is to be considered that you may not exceed such a proportion as is agreeable to your Nature for a due supply and not over-charge the body And here I must commend to you temperance and moderation in eating as a great preservative of Health not a Lessian diet to pine and enfeeble the body not so precise but a moderate allowance proportionable to the strength and ability of the Stomach to digest considering also other conditions of body and manner of life whether active laborious sedentary or idle The contrary irregular practice hath destroyed the lives of many Plures gula quam gladius The labouring active and stronger persons may eat more freely and do require a greater supply to maintain their strength than the sedentary and studious or such as take their ease and weak or tender Bodies Some may think the more plentifully they eat the better they shall thrive in body be more nourished and the stronger for it but it will not prove so a little well digested and assimilated shall maintain the body in a stronger and more vigorous condition than being glutted with superfluity most of which is turned to excrementitious not alimentary juice and must be cast out else sickness soon after will follow For quantity your own stomach must measure

and commands to the expulsive faculty for their emission All necessary and wholesom Customs are now neglected and disregarded the Soul too oft is wandring and gadding abroad and best when she is roving from home but neglects the airing of her Cottage and perfuming it with fresh aetherean breath The Soul is now always restless and disturbed nor shall the Senses her Attendants take their due repose but keeps an unquiet house at midnight In the second Case The regular and due order of government in the Body is subverted and changed when the Soul in the forementioned passions of Fear Anger Hatred and Revenge is disturbed and alarum'd by the assault approach or appearance of some evil or injury the Soul then summons the spirits together and commands them from their common duties calls them to her aid and assistance for security from danger to repulse the violence offered or revenge the injury hurrying them here and there from one part to another in a tumultuous manner if the assault be suddain and surprizing sometimes inward to support the heart to give courage and resolution which by their suddain concourse and confluence to the Center causeth great palpitations and almost suffocation or else commanding them to the out-works into the external parts to repel the invasion and violence of the evil presenting or approaching or to revenge the quarrel the Hands and Arms then receive a double or treble strength the Muscles being full and distended with agile spirits for their activity and strength in motion The Eyes then are staring full and stretch'd forth with a croud of inflamed spirits darting forth their fury and spending their strength upon the Adversary and Object of their trouble The Tongue then is swelled with spirits and big words that wanting a larger room for vent tumbles out broken and imperfect speeches and scarce can utter whole words The Legs and Feet then have an Auxiliary supply and double portion of spirits conveighed into their Nerves and Sinews to increase their agility and strength to come on or off But in the mean time the Heart perhaps is almost fainting so long being deprived of and deserted by those lively vigorous spirits which did inhabit and quarter there for its Life-Guard protection and support but are now called off their Guard and common duties imployed in Foreign Parts commanded here and there as the emergent occasions present to the Governess of this Microcosm In the third case mentioned the due order government and necessary execution of offices belonging to the welfare and maintenance of the body and preservation of life are neglected and weakly performed When the Soul being darkned and overspread with a cloud of sadness betakes her self to a sullen incurious recumbency and retiredness willing to resign up and cast off the government and tuition of the body and as a burthen which she now delights not to bear about begins to lose her hold who before had embraced and clipt so close suspending the virtue of her energy and vigorous emanations acting faintly and coldly those necessary mutual performances without regard to their former friendship or their future conjunct preservation The Body now begins to sink with its own weight and press towards the Earth the natural place from whence it came That active spirit which before had buoyed it up and took delight to sport it to and fro is now ready to let it fall and grovel downwards to leave it whither it must go The wonted pleasures of their partnership and society are now disgusted and rejected Food now hath lost its relish and is become unsavoury Sleep which before was pleasant as a holy-day in the fruition of rest and ease is now composed of nothing but troublesome unquiet dreams linked together with some sighing intervals to measure out the weary night by Exercise and sporting Recreations are now accounted drudgery and laborious toyling unwilling is the Soul to move her Yoke-fellow farther than the enforcing Law of Nature and necessity commands and urgeth Their joint operations which before were duly and unanimously performed are now ceased abated or depraved by the retraction reluctance and indisposed sadness of the Soul to act the wonted vigorous emanations of the Soul and her radiant influence upon the spirits is now suspended subducted and called back These ministring attending Spirits and nimble Agents which at a beck were always ready agile and active in the execution of her commands now want Commands to stir and Warrants to act by but in a torpid and somnolent indisposition unfit for action and the exquisite performance of their duties and in a sympathizing complyance with the Soul the excitrix and rectrix of their motions they are ready to resign their Offices and give over working that what they now do is faintly and remisly performed with much deficiency and depravation When the Soul is pleased and merry the spirits dance and are chearful at their work but when she droops and mourns the spirits are dull heavy and tired the Functions but weakly and insufficiently executed From the preceding Discourse may easily be collected that the Distempers and Alienations of the Soul from her genuine state of serenety and quietude is of great disadvantage to Health for as much as the necessary Functions of the Body from hence are disordered and insufficiently performed these perturbations also impressing upon the Body various preternatural effects forming the Ideas and Characters of Diseases upon the spirits which are by them communicated implanted and propagated in the body likewise the morbifick Seeds and secret Characters of Diseases which lay dead and inactive are by the oeconomical disturbance and perturbation of mind awakened moved and stirred up to hostility and action which otherwise would have layen dormant as by grief fear anger hysterical passions swoonings epilepsies c. are often procured and it is evident and commonly observed by infirm and diseased people how passion aggravates and heightens their distempers and according to the temper of their mind will their bodily infirmities be aggravated or abated I shall draw up this Discourse into three Corollaries being the Epitome of what hath been asserted and aimed at 1. There is no perturbation or passion of mind whether little or great but it works a real effect in the Body more or less according to the nature and strength of the passion and by how much the more sudden great often and of longer duration the passion is by so much are the impressions and effects worse more durable and indeleble You cannot be angry or envious or melancholy or give way to any such passion but you cherish and feed an Enemy that preys upon your life and you may be assured that passion makes as great nay greater alteration within the body than the change of your countenance appears to outward view which is not a little although but a shadow or reflexion of the inward distemper and disorder And were it possible by any perspective to see the alteration and discomposure

within made by a passionate troubled mind the prospect would be strange and much different from that placidness and tranquillity of an indisturbed quiet Soul 2. Strong and vehement passions or affections of the mind too intent upon this or that object whether desirable and to be enjoyed or formidable and to be avoided alienate suspend and draw off the wonted vigour influence and preservative power of the Soul due to the body whereby the functions and necessary operations are not duly and sufficiently performed but intempestively remisly and weakly Nor is the dammage only privative but also introduceth and impresseth upon the spirits a morbifick Idea which is ens reale seminale producing this or that effect according to the nature and property of the Idea received and aptitude of the recipient subject Phancies and Idea's are let in naked but they streight are invested and cloathed in the body have a real existence and are entia realia though at first conception but entia rationis as the longing of a pregnant Woman being but the Idea of a thing in her mind it begets various and real distempers in her body if not soon satisfied and sometimes characterized upon the Embryo in the Womb. Likewise a good stomach is taken off its meat suddenly by the coming of some unwelcom bad news the appetite is gone now the oul is disquieted and the Body really affected and altered Let these sad tydings be contradicted and the Soul satisfied of the truth to the contrary it sets a new impression upon the spirits they strait are cheared lively and active the stomach calls for meat and drink and the faculties restored to their wonted operations Whereby it appears the two passions of joy and grief as they are opposite in their objects so are their effects wrought in the Body as far distant and different 3. A cogitative or contemplative person too intent always or unseasonably employing the mind seriously and eagerly either in real or fictitious matters fabricating Idea's upon the spirits disturbs and hinders other necessary offices in the body and operations conservative of its being enervates and weakens their performance in duty impares Health and hastens old Age but those that live most incurious and void of studious thoughts too serious cogitations and disquieting passions preserve the strength of Nature and integrity of all the Faculties protract the verdure and beauty of youth much longer from declensions and decay for by how much the rational faculty is over-busie disturbed and intempestively exercised drawing the full vigour of the Soul into the discharge of that faculty and robbing other inferiour functions of their necessary influential supply and emanative power from the Soul by so much the other faculties are impoverished and abated their executions more languid and depraved and therefore it is a close Students life a careful or passionate mind disposeth to and introduceth many infirmities enervates and debilitates nature abbreviates and shortens her course SECT XXIII Distempers and Perturbations of the Soul particularly Of Anger THis Passion is a great Disease if we consider the preternatural effects and alterations it maketh for the functions of the body are disordered and discomposed by it and the whole man changed from what he was In giving judgment upon Diseases so much worse is that person to be accounted whose alteration is greater from what he was in a state of health and as the functions perverted are more in number and superiour in dignity This Disease does not take up one particular part for its quarters but it seiseth the whole Man All the Faculties are disordered and every part is discomposed and disturbed Take a view of an angry Man or rather a Man in the fury and perturbation of Anger his Reason is supprest or suspended he acts not rationally but as a mad man his face is changed his eyes stare and sparkle his Tongue stammers his Heart pants his Pulse beats high and quick his Breath is almost gone the Blood and all the Humours boyl and the Spirits are agitated to and fro by gusts like an impetuous Wind he trembles all over and this storm shaketh the whole Fabrick of his body Surely this is a great Disease that thus discomposeth and puts the whole man out of frame and order such storms as these do much weaken and enervate the ability of the Faculties disorder their regular performance and discharge of their Offices but more especially infirm Parts are made sensible of the prejudice and cholerick lean bodies An inflammation of any particular part is a great Disease but Anger is an inflammation of the whole and were this distemper to continue long a man were in as much danger of life as in the highest Feaver Therefore take the Poets counsel Principiis obsta Ne fraena animo permitte Calenti Stat. Fear Fear whether sudden and violently seizing or gradually approaching and threatning an evil to come both enervates and debilitates Nature Fear suddenly surprizing chaseth the spirits to and fro from their residency and faculties sometimes compressing and driving them to the heart causing violent palpitations and suffocation or scattering them from the Fountain of Life into the external parts making a dissolution almost to exanimation Such frightful surprizes as these are very dangerous and seldom happen but they leave some sad Characters and Impressions behind Etiam fortes viri subitis terrentur Tacit. Against this fear there is no remedy having surprized and seized the Person before deliberation can interpose to prevent it or preparation made couragiously to meet or valiantly to stand against this shock of terrour Fear that gives warning before the evil comes and threatens as yet afar off that Soul which then yields up her courage and strength of resistance is disarm'd by her own phancy and vanquished by her self is conquered with nothing in Being but with the fear of something that may be The evil although to come which possibly may be prevented and never come yet it is made a present calamity the suggestions being received and the Soul sinking under them make a pressure upon the Soul as really afflicting as the evil it self Multos in summo peric'la misit timor ipse mali Luc. Such fears as these ought to be chased away and manfully resisted that which may be is as far from us sometimes as that which never shall be The fear of things that never come are ten to those that come to pass Quid juvat dolori suo occurrere Satis citò dolebit cùm venerit Sen. As Anger swells the Soul and thrusts forward the spirits into the exteriour parts to oppose and to revenge the ill On the contrary Fear makes the Soul to shrink and the spirits to give back By this contraction of the Soul her wonted vigorous emanations in all the faculties are suspended whereby the functions of the Body are remisly and depravedly performed the spirits retire inwards the face grows pale wan and thin and the Soul pines and

the extremity and strength of passion debilitate and suppress Reason the chief contriver and manager of your design puts you upon inconsiderate immature and rash attempts and makes you more unfit incapable and unable to effect your purpose for Passion is always spurring but Reason hath its stops and pauses keeps due times for onsets and progress Thirdly That prudent and vigorous action not inane hungry volition or thirsty desire though ever so great can acquire the satisfaction of your hopes Fourthly That the ardency and heighth of desire will not imbetter sweeten or add to the heighth of your enjoyment but rather abate and lessen it in your account and esteem for what thing soever you purchase and are mistaken and deceived in you will not value at that rate you first prized it but at the worth you now find it Vehement and lofty desires screws you up to such a heighth of expectation mountain high but you must descend into fruition that 's low as the valley and when you find your self in a bottom and your Sails not so filled and puft out as formerly by the fresh gails and blasts of a strong desire your top sails then begin to flap and flag when you come in to the still calm of fruition and your lofty spirits and high thoughts will lowre amain when you Anchor in the Harbour of Enjoyment for in appearance it was great when at a distance and seemingly but now you are come nearer it is much less and inconsiderable really and what swelled you full in the prosecution of attaining will not fill you now with satisfaction but prove aery when you grasp it and soon emptied in enjoyment Non ea jam mens res habenti quae desideranti erat Fifthly That statutum est it is appointed you must or you must not obtain the thing desired which to a rational creature is sufficient without other Arguments to qualifie moderate and blunt the keen edge of desire and curb the violence of an impetuous affection but not to cowardise daunt or stop a laudable active prosecution to attain a noble vertuous and lawful end with a moderate submssiive desire Quisquis in primo obstitit Repulitque amorem tutus ac victor fuit Sen. Melancholly Grief and Despair These Passions being near allied we may rank them together as the Companions and Attendants upon adversity and misfortunes whose properties are to rob and steal away from the Soul that vivacious enlivening power which roborates and quickens all the faculties in the Body When these Passions are predominant the energy of the Soul is abated and all the functions insufficiently weakly and depravedly performed A dark Cloud of Melancholy over-spreading the Soul suffocates and choaks the Spirits retards their motion and agility darkens their purity and light these instruments in each faculty being thus disabled their offices in every part of the body are faintly executed whereby the whole body decays and languisheth witness the common symptoms of a dejected sad condition a pale thin face heavy dead eyes a slow weak pulse loss of appetite weakness faintness restlesness a weight or compression about the region of the heart with continual sighing or palpitation these are the effects wrought in the Body by Melancholy and Grief which are to be avoided as great decayers of Nature Enemies to Beauty Health and Strength Hope and Joy But these are the recreations of the Soul and are as sanative and wholesom as exercise is for the Body for the Soul plays and danceth in hope and joy Embrace therefore and cherish these as the supports of your life which raise the Soul to the highest pitch and extend her energy to the utmost These enlivening affections of the mind are the greatest friends to and preservatives of Health and strength for in this serene state of gladness all the faculties and endowments of soul are advanced and invigorated both rational sensitive and natural which implies a vigorous performance in all the members of the Body and therefore contribute mainly to the keeping or acquiring of Health and consequently the prolongation of life Content and joy prolong youth and preserve beauty make the countenance fresh the Body plump and fat for pleasantness and delight of the soul put all the spirits upon activity quicken their operations and duty in all the functions conveigh nutriment to repair and replenish the utmost borders and confines of the microcosm therefore dum fata sinunt vivite laeti FINIS Advertisement PAins afflicting humane Bodies their various difference Causes Parts affected Signals of danger or safety Shewing their tendency to Inflammations Tumors Apostems Vlcers Cancers Gangrenes and Mortifications for a seasonable prevention of such fatal Events With a Tract of Fontinels or Issues and Setons By E.
