A90743	Phlebotomiographia or, a treatise of phlebotomy. Demonstrating the necessity of it in diseases; the time for elections. And likewise of the use and application of cupping-glasses, and leeches. Whereupon is added a brief and most methodicall tract of the crisis. Written originally in French, by Da de Plumis Campi chirurgion. And now faithfully rendred into English, by E.W. well-wisher to physick and chirurgery.	Planis Campy, David de.; E. W.	1658 (1658)	Wing P2376A; Thomason E1929_1; ESTC R209992	52,319	224
