GUIDOT● OF Natural Bathes AND Mineral Waters CHAP. I. Explication of the word Bathe The scope and argument of this Book The ancient use and esteem of Bathes among the Romans The modern use of them among the Turks Of Medicinal Bathes and Mineral Waters Hom esteemed by the Greeks Latines Arabians and other Nations THE word Bathe or Balneum is of larger extent then I purpose to discourse of for it being the name of a form of Remedy applyed to the Body it may be framed either out of liquid things or solid substances or vapours Liquid Substances are Water Milk Must Wine Oyle Solid Substances are Sand Salt pressed Grapes Corn c. Vapours are Stuphs and Hot Houses My intent is only to treat of Waters and principally of those which be called Mineral whether they be used in Bath or in Potion c. These kind of watry and vaporous Bathes have been in use from all antiquity and held in great esteem both for pleasure and for preservation of health For there is no form of Remedy more comfortable to mans body or which easeth pain and weariness more speedily and more effectually And whereas Hypocrates commends those Remedies which do cure cito tuto jucunde speedily safely and with comfort these Bathes perform all these intentions and besides may be used to all Sexes and Ages and Temperatures without hurt or inconvenience insomuch as the antient Romans had them in very frequent use their Diet being liberal and upon variety of Meats especially upon Lettuce Coleworts Asparagus raw fruits and such like which bred crude humours in their bodies and had need of some such help to digest them as Columella faith Quotidianam cruditatem laconicis excoquimus We concoct our crudities by the useof Bathes We read in Plinie that Agrippa built in Rome 170 publick Bathes for common use and Pancirollus tells us of 856 in Rome at one time and all of them most sumptuous and magnificent buildings especially the Anthonin and Dioclesian Bathes the Walls whereof were of admirable height with an infinite number of Marble Pillars erected for ostentation and not to support any thing 1000 Seats to sit in Their Caldaria Tepidaria Frigidaria most sumptuous and stately the whole fabrick so large and spacious as they resembled rather Cities than Houses And so it might well be when as there were imployed for the building of the Dioclesian Bathes as Baccius faith 40000 men but Salmuth faith 140000 for some years together They were placed where now the Church of Saint Angelo stands The Turks at this day retain that antient custome of the Romans and are in nothing more profuse then in their Temples and Bathes which are like unto great Pallaces and in every City very frequent And yet both the Romans and the Turks used those Bathes chiefly for pleasure and delicacy and cleanliness the Romans going bare-legged and their wayes dusty had need of often washing and the Turks lying in their Cloaths subject to Lice and Worms if it were not for their often bathing Moreover the Diet of the Turks though it be more sparing then that of the Romans yet it is little better namely upon Herbs Roots raw fruit c. and their Drink for the most part Water being prohibited the use of Wine by their Religion must needs breed many crudities in their bodies yet by their often bathings they do not only overcome them but get a good habit of body their Women being accounted as delicate creatures as any in the world who duly twice a week resort to the Bathes Now if those Nations would bestow so much upon their Bathes of delicacy and pleasure which were only of pure Water we have much more reason to adorn our
