skin it Hildanus tels us of one who in an impure coition with a Strumpet had all his genital parts so dilated that a malign Vapour passed to the next immediate Veines and afterwards coursed through the greater to the Liver and so infected the whole mass of Blood hence were generated many crudities instead of Blood And as nature is alwaies careful to defend her noble parts and to vindicate them from blemish and injury she generally sends these Humours to the Ing●ens as to its Emunct●ories and here they breed these Tumours we call Buboes which were made of a hot and sanguinolent matter the which with ease came to suppuration others there be which being generated of could and thick Humours do require a longer time to suppur ate and a greater diligency to cure the Matter was sharp and malign and many Medicines being used both inwards and outwards with small success The Tumour appeared but small and was very hard and after having applied many attractive Cataplasms and Emplasters by the benefit of a Caustick it did break out of which for six or seven dayes space it did run near ten pound of Matter About the Rotator of the Thigh broke out several Abscesses out of which did also run such a great Quantity of Matter for some months that many thought him scarce curable but by care and convenient Medicines he recovered Schenkius relates of a noble man about 30. years of age who having recreated himself in Venereal embraces with a young noble woman being filled well both with wine and venery had soon after his fulness of pleasure an implacable pain about his Hips and in his left Groyn did grow a large and red Tumour the which after wards turned it self into an Ulcer to which applying Diachylon cum gummi and such like Medicines it was speedily brought to suppuration the which being opened a great quantity of Purulent Matter came out much like to that of Pultice his Spirits almost being exhausted he fell into a consumption accompanied with a Hectick and afterwards within a little while leaves the world with his pain I write this as a Caution to young Chirurgions that they do not supress such Venereal Buboes or leave any Venenate or Virulent matter to lodge in such Tumours or Abscesses they at last turning to Fistulaes if not bring a Consumption with them and so Death CHAP. LXIV Of a Pestilential Bubo THis Tumor by the Arabians is cal Althois It is a Tumour long and moveable in its Vigour sharp with a mucronated Turbination immoveable and deeply fixed in the Glandules in which the Brain exonerates it self into these Glandules somewhat of its venenate and pestiferous Matter as to those which are in the Throat and Ears the Heart to those which are under the Axillaries and the Liver to the Inguens It consisteth of a thick and viscid substance as a sharp Anthrax●ixing ●ixing an Eschar in the part Of these are two conjunct Causes the Efficient is strength and vivacity of the expulsive Faculty of these principal parts which expulsion is made by these to the Emunctuories The material Cause is corrupt Blood deprived of its proper Nature Effence and benign Quality and altogether altered and changed from its pristine Substance that it turneth an enemy to its nature And here ought we to enquire into the cause of this Corruption It is to be noted in an Inflammation and Erysipelas the fluent Blood is good because it is not expelled only aggravated in Quantity This is expelled in respect of its ill Quality Galen giveth this as a Cause as Corruption when that be received be of an evil juice they being of the worst Nutriment Another Cause is corruption of Air the which being attracted doth force it self into the Spirits and so corrupt the whole Mass of Blood we do own a Pestiferous Bubo to be an Inflammation of the Glandulous parts and here therefore we are to mind the whole colour of the Body For in a Pestiferous Bubo this is sometimes changed Another sign is a dry and black Tongue another is a thin and waterish Urine his Excrements very fetid because this putrid Heat doth corrupt them In a Pestiferous Flux there is oft times a Cholerick Flux adjoyned and the Excrements are of various colours frequent Vomiting and stinking Sweats a general Itch over all the Body pains of the Head oftimes Delirium great pain and griping in the Stomach by reason of the putrid Humours sent thither from the Guts then Syncope and at last Death In this case Death is generally to be presaged the disease being so potent and forcibly assailing the natural Fort that it cannot long hold out As to the Cure First cure his Air this being as a main Actor in this Tragedy and therefore sprinkle his room with Vinegar or burnt Tarr c. let his Dyet be thin because his Humour is thick all Passions are to be shunned Venery ●led from as the greatest enemy because it is a great disease Galen ordereth Venae Sectio and in every putrid Fever you may see him ordering Phlebotomy as you may see it in 11. Meth. cap. 14. And in a Pestilential Bubo there is concomitant a putrid Fever and therefore Bleeding is very requisite Besides these the common signs of the Bloods offending in Quality requires Bleeding But this is to be done and performed both warily and judiciously for in some cases it is by no means to be admitted as in the Small Pox appearing or Buboes for by Venesection here we send the peccant Matter inwards to some noble part and so instead of quenching we rather add Fuel to the Fire And in purging be sure you observe to mix somewhat of an Alexipharmick to strengthen the Parts As to the outward Applications Epispasticks Cupping Glasses and the like Medicines are the only proper Instruments to abate the Fury and fetch forth the Malignity Somtimes Causticks also do take goop place here anointing the Skin first with Oyl of Lilies that the more loose the Skin be made the deeper the impress the Cupping Glass may make And being thus brought to Suppuration apply Venice Treacle or Mithridate plaster-wise Or for this use you may use this Unguent ℞ Vnguent Dialth ℥ iss Ol.
