it_o be_v not_o the_o most_o genuine_a natural_a and_o convenient_a and_o must_v never_o venture_v upon_o any_o other_o in_o acute_a disease_n of_o which_o we_o speak_v if_o it_o have_v be_v continue_v for_o some_o time_n but_o to_o return_v to_o our_o subject_n if_o we_o intimation_n reflect_v upon_o the_o theory_n demonstrate_v in_o the_o first_o part_n of_o this_o it_o will_v be_v evident_a that_o because_o this_o disease_n proceed_v always_o with_o we_o at_o least_o from_o a_o interruption_n of_o perspiration_n and_o because_o the_o mass_n of_o blood_n be_v corrupt_v and_o vitiate_a by_o the_o quantity_n of_o the_o steam_n thus_o detain_v that_o the_o genuine_a and_o natural_a way_n of_o cure_v this_o be_v by_o evacuation_n either_o according_a to_o the_o quantity_n of_o the_o detain_v mole_n or_o at_o least_o in_o such_o a_o proportion_n as_o may_v set_v the_o part_n of_o the_o blood_n at_o great_a liberty_n and_o so_o because_o the_o different_a secretion_n depend_v upon_o the_o different_a degree_n of_o the_o blood_n velocity_n when_o the_o blood_n acquire_v a_o velocity_n like_o that_o which_o be_v natural_a it_o will_v also_o have_v natural_a secretion_n and_o in_o this_o manner_n be_v reduce_v to_o its_o natural_a contact_n and_o cohesion_n i._n e._n it_o will_v be_v propel_v in_o its_o ordinary_a and_o natural_a way_n and_o the_o patient_n will_v recover_v his_o health_n since_o health_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o most_o natural_a circulation_n of_o the_o blood_n now_o since_o evacuation_n thus_o perform_v answer_v our_o design_n in_o cure_v fever_n both_o by_o lessen_v the_o quantity_n and_o alter_v the_o mass_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o all_o the_o consequence_n draw_v from_o the_o former_a intimation_n be_v just_a and_o may_v be_v put_v in_o practice_n upon_o reasonable_a occasion_n the_o next_o question_n may_v be_v which_o of_o all_o the_o mention_v way_n may_v be_v the_o most_o natural_a and_o convenient_a for_o a_o general_a practice_n and_o since_o blooding_n sweat_v and_o purge_v be_v most_o common_o receive_v among_o we_o i_o shall_v inquire_v which_o of_o these_o we_o may_v most_o general_o depend_v upon_o purge_v and_o first_o since_o both_o they_o that_o allow_v of_o sweat_v and_o they_o who_o recommend_v purge_v for_o the_o most_o general_a practice_n affirm_v that_o blood_n be_v agreeable_a for_o both_o their_o design_n there_o be_v no_o occasion_n leave_v for_o dispute_v about_o the_o necessity_n or_o usefulness_n of_o that_o operation_n if_o the_o necessary_a caution_n be_v observe_v with_o regard_n to_o the_o quantity_n of_o blood_n that_o ought_v to_o be_v take_v away_o so_o that_o the_o controversy_n lie_v entire_o betwixt_o sweat_v and_o purge_v which_o i_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o determine_v with_o all_o the_o impartiality_n imaginable_a and_o that_o by_o enumerate_v the_o advantage_n and_o inconvenience_n of_o both_o and_o first_o because_o the_o secretion_n by_o the_o pore_n be_v double_a of_o all_o the_o other_o secretion_n in_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o body_n it_o be_v plain_a where_o this_o secretion_n can_v be_v perform_v that_o there_o may_v be_v a_o great_a quantity_n separate_v from_o the_o blood_n in_o a_o certain_a time_n than_o may_v be_v by_o all_o the_o other_o way_n together_o in_o the_o same_o space_n of_o time_n so_o that_o for_o that_o reason_n it_o may_v seem_v the_o most_o convenient_a and_o agreeable_a yet_o since_o it_o must_v be_v excite_v by_o medicine_n that_o supply_v the_o blood_n with_o spirit_n and_o consequent_o unlock_v the_o spirit_n of_o the_o blood_n that_o be_v confine_v by_o its_o viscidity_n if_o those_o medicine_n be_v give_v to_o sick_a people_n that_o be_v young_a have_v a_o abundance_n of_o blood_n and_o that_o very_o rich_a it_o be_v plain_a that_o they_o must_v so_o break_v and_o divide_v the_o part_n of_o the_o blood_n and_o excite_v such_o a_o velocity_n by_o which_o few_o or_o no_o secretion_n of_o any_o sort_n be_v make_v as_o we_o see_v but_o too_o often_o in_o our_o daily_a practice_n and_o therefore_o this_o practice_n can_v only_o agree_v with_o those_o that_o be_v old_a and_o have_v not_o so_o rich_a blood_n i_o need_v not_o give_v my_o judgement_n about_o the_o other_o two_o way_n of_o provoke_a sweat_n since_o they_o be_v not_o in_o use_n with_o we_o yet_o i_o think_v it_o will_v not_o be_v far_o from_o the_o purpose_n to_o remember_v you_o of_o a_o story_n dr._n willis_n tell_v we_o in_o his_o book_n of_o fever_n of_o a_o young_a woman_n that_o lay_v

last_o i_o think_v he_o give_v she_o two_o drachm_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o hartshorn_n but_o nothing_o like_o sweat_v appear_v on_o the_o contrary_a her_o pulse_n be_v high_a she_o be_v very_o hot_a and_o delirious_a and_o among_o the_o rest_n of_o her_o idle_a talk_n be_v doubtless_o incite_v by_o a_o extraordinary_a drought_n she_o desire_v to_o go_v a_o swim_n and_o up_o she_o get_v for_o

at_o length_n throw_v she_o into_o the_o water_n and_o after_o she_o be_v bring_v out_o again_o be_v put_v to_o bed_n where_o she_o sweat_v off_o her_o fever_n some_o such_o like_a case_n happen_v very_o often_o to_o our_o sailor_n who_o in_o the_o time_n they_o be_v delirious_a or_o have_v calenture_n this_o word_n our_o surgeon_n use_v for_o violent_a fever_n yet_o it_o be_v only_o a_o

and_o imagine_v it_o to_o be_v a_o green_a meadow_n get_v up_o a_o walk_a and_o fall_v into_o the_o sea_n if_o they_o be_v not_o stop_v in_o their_o way_n but_o if_o they_o get_v at_o last_o into_o the_o sea_n and_o be_v take_v up_o and_o lay_v into_o their_o hammock_n they_o sweat_v very_o plentiful_o and_o shake_v off_o their_o fever_n i_o do_v not_o take_v notice_n of_o these_o instance_n with_o a_o design_n to_o persuade_v people_n to_o such_o a_o practice_n while_o we_o can_v perform_v the_o cure_n a_o great_a deal_n better_o but_o only_o to_o be_v a_o example_n in_o practice_n for_o the_o proposition_n i_o have_v establish_v in_o a_o theory_n of_o the_o velocity_n of_o the_o blood_n somewhere_o else_o and_o name_v just_a now_o and_o i_o think_v that_o proposition_n be_v very_o well_o confirm_v by_o these_o instance_n since_o we_o see_v that_o this_o rapid_a motion_n of_o the_o blood_n in_o this_o dilirious_a and_o mad_a state_n be_v check_v by_o the_o coldness_n of_o the_o water_n and_o be_v thus_o check_v send_v out_o abundance_n of_o its_o part_n by_o sweat_v as_o i_o allege_v upon_o the_o other_o hand_n if_o purge_v medicine_n can_v evacuate_v as_o much_o out_o of_o the_o blood_n as_o the_o mole_n that_o be_v detain_v amount_v to_o without_o heighten_v or_o at_o least_o not_o considerable_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o blood_n then_o that_o will_v be_v a_o more_o certain_a practice_n and_o no_o less_o reasonable_a than_o the_o other_o now_o i_o can_v make_v it_o plain_a by_o a_o great_a many_o experiment_n that_o the_o detain_v steam_n that_o produce_v these_o symptom_n we_o find_v in_o fever_n do_v not_o exceed_v three_o or_o four_o lib._n and_o since_o it_o be_v agreeable_a with_o our_o daily_a observation_n that_o we_o can_v give_v medicine_n that_o evacuate_v by_o stool_n a_o great_a quantity_n without_o heat_n the_o body_n therefore_o it_o be_v very_o evident_a that_o the_o administer_a of_o medicine_n that_o evacuate_v by_o stool_n will_v be_v a_o more_o certain_a and_o safe_a way_n of_o cure_v fever_n but_o whatever_o may_v be_v say_v on_o this_o subject_n i_o admire_v how_o that_o practice_n can_v be_v think_v agreeable_a at_o sea_n
