considerable_a cold._n 2._o whence_o proceed_v the_o heat_n of_o fever_n which_o succeed_v the_o cold_a fit_a whence_o the_o thirst_n pain_n of_o the_o reins_o and_o headache_n the_o heat_n proceed_v from_o the_o irregular_a motion_n of_o the_o particle_n of_o the_o blood_n which_o be_v compose_v according_a to_o the_o observation_n of_o the_o english_a by_o the_o microscope_n of_o a_o infinite_a number_n of_o little_a red_a globule_n swim_v in_o a_o clear_a water_n for_o the_o heat_n of_o all_o body_n proceed_v but_o from_o the_o motion_n of_o their_o several_a particle_n the_o thirst_n proceed_v from_o the_o heat_n which_o consume_v the_o serosity_n of_o the_o chyle_n the_o pain_n of_o the_o reins_o which_o accompany_v sometime_o the_o cold_a fit_a sometime_o the_o hot_a be_v cause_v by_o the_o ebullition_n of_o the_o mass_n of_o blood_n in_o the_o great_a vessel_n lie_v along_o the_o reins_o the_o headache_n be_v the_o effect_n of_o the_o violent_a beat_n of_o the_o artery_n of_o the_o brain_n against_o the_o membrane_n that_o encompass_v it_o so_o those_o who_o blood_n rise_v high_a or_o beat_v strong_a or_o who_o have_v their_o membrane_n more_o sensible_a have_v also_o more_o of_o the_o headache_n than_o other_o 3._o why_o be_v melancholy_a people_n which_o abound_v with_o acid_a humour_n less_o subject_a to_o fever_n than_o other_o because_o the_o mass_n of_o blood_n be_v infect_v with_o this_o acidity_n and_o unapt_a to_o ferment_n and_o the_o chyle_n though_o it_o often_o contract_v a_o acidity_n in_o the_o stomach_n yet_o produce_v it_o no_o fever_n as_o be_v of_o the_o same_o nature_n with_o the_o blood_n for_o two_o liquor_n that_o be_v not_o contrary_a one_o to_o the_o other_o do_v not_o ferment_n together_o no_o more_o than_o two_o friend_n who_o sentiment_n be_v agreeable_a do_v quarrel_n and_o fight_v so_o that_o you_o need_v not_o wonder_v if_o in_o cold_a country_n they_o be_v less_o subject_n to_o fever_n than_o in_o hot_a climate_n and_o if_o those_o who_o blood_n be_v more_o gross_a and_o melancholy_a be_v less_o attack_v by_o fever_n than_o other_o this_o make_v hypocrates_n say_v that_o those_o who_o have_v sharp_a wind_n be_v not_o very_o subject_a to_o the_o pleurisy_n because_o their_o blood_n be_v more_o gross_a and_o so_o less_o apt_a to_o precipitate_v itself_o with_o violence_n upon_o the_o side_n to_o cause_v inflammation_n i_o remember_v i_o see_v at_o monpellier_n a_o dane_n who_o in_o a_o fit_a of_o melancholy_n have_v cast_v himself_o out_o of_o a_o window_n two_o story_n high_a into_o the_o

frequent_a and_o more_o obstinate_a in_o autumn_n than_o in_o the_o other_o season_n of_o the_o year_n it_o be_v because_o the_o precede_a summer_n have_v render_v the_o blood_n too_o inflammable_a and_o more_o susceptible_a of_o a_o fever_n beside_o that_o the_o inequality_n of_o the_o season_n help_v much_o to_o corrupt_v the_o chyle_n further_n fruit_n come_v in_o now_o in_o abundance_n produce_v in_o those_o that_o eat_v much_o of_o it_o a_o ferment_n that_o cause_v long_a and_o obstinate_a fever_n particular_o quartain_v which_o sometime_o continue_v from_o one_o year_n to_o another_o according_a to_o the_o sentence_n of_o hypocrates_n and_o the_o old_a method_n of_o cure_v they_o pliny_n say_v that_o quartain_n begin_v not_o in_o winter_n and_o indeed_o it_o be_v but_o very_o rare_o that_o they_o do_v but_o the_o temperature_n of_o the_o season_n be_v uncertain_a for_o sometime_o we_o see_v in_o the_o middle_n of_o winter_n day_n like_o those_o in_o the_o spring_n or_o autumn_n 5._o how_o be_v it_o that_o tertian_n change_v into_o double_a tertian_n and_o quartain_n and_o quartain_v into_o tertian_n tertian_n change_v into_o double_a tertian_n and_o quartain_v into_o double_a quartain_n when_o the_o chyle_n become_v more_o disproportionate_a to_o the_o blood_n and_o these_o two_o liquor_n not_o agree_v together_o do_v justle_v one_o another_o the_o often_o tertian_n become_v quartain_n when_o by_o a_o too_o cool_a diet_n or_o cool_a medicine_n unreasonable_o give_v the_o ferment_n become_v sharp_a or_o sowerer_n and_o the_o blood_n thick_a on_o the_o other_o side_n quartain_v change_n into_o tertian_n when_o by_o a_o too_o hot_a diet_n or_o medicine_n the_o ferment_n and_o the_o mass_n of_o blood_n become_v more_o subtle_a and_o more_o inflammable_a and_o general_o intermittent_n may_v be_v change_v into_o continual_n by_o a_o ill_a regimen_n and_o overhot_a medicine_n which_o make_v all_o the_o ferment_n pass_v into_o the_o vein_n and_o render_v the_o blood_n too_o susceptible_a of_o a_o agitation_n of_o long_a continuance_n and_o continual_n become_v intermittent_n when_o nature_n strive_v to_o disengage_v herself_o from_o this_o ferment_n in_o precipitate_v it_o into_o its_o first_o passage_n as_o after_o the_o ebullition_n of_o oil_n of_o vitriol_n and_o oil_n of_o tartar_n there_o be_v precipitate_v to_o the_o

inexplicable_a in_o the_o return_n of_o fever_n which_o be_v sometime_o as_o certain_a as_o the_o flux_n and_o reflux_n of_o the_o sea_n i_o say_v that_o it_o seem_v probable_a that_o it_o proceed_v from_o the_o equal_a portion_n of_o aliment_n which_o be_v take_v and_o of_o the_o chyle_n which_o be_v make_v for_o those_o who_o eat_v too_o much_o cause_n the_o fit_a to_o come_v soon_o though_o indeed_o it_o may_v come_v soon_o for_o other_o reason_n as_o when_o the_o blood_n heat_v by_o the_o precede_a fit_n become_v more_o susceptible_a of_o fermentation_n on_o the_o other_o side_n it_o come_v late_a when_o less_o nourishment_n be_v take_v or_o when_o the_o ferment_n begin_v to_o grow_v mild_a in_o fine_a there_o be_v some_o fever_n that_o be_v both_o uncertain_a and_o unequal_a as_o to_o their_o return_v which_o be_v a_o mark_n of_o disorder_n either_o in_o the_o orgain_n or_o in_o the_o mass_n of_o blood_n which_o render_v the_o cure_n of_o such_o fever_n more_o difficult_a and_o more_o subject_a to_o relapse_n and_o this_o may_v be_v call_v a_o symptomatick_a fever_n as_o be_v that_o which_o proceed_v from_o obstruction_n 7._o why_o come_v not_o the_o fever_n upon_o the_o sick_a soon_o after_o meal_n the_o reason_n will_v easy_o appear_v if_o you_o do_v but_o consider_v that_o the_o last_o fit_a of_o the_o fever_n have_v dissipate_v and_o drive_v out_o by_o a_o considerable_a transpiration_n and_o sometime_o by_o a_o copious_a sweat_n a_o great_a part_n of_o the_o acidity_n of_o the_o lympha_fw-la that_o produce_v these_o disorder_n so_o that_o immediate_o after_o a_o fit_a it_o be_v not_o strong_a enough_o nor_o in_o quantity_n great_a enough_o to_o give_v to_o the_o chyle_n a_o certain_a degree_n of_o acidity_n which_o may_v produce_v when_o it_o be_v mix_v with_o the_o mass_n of_o blood_n that_o fermentation_n and_o emotion_n which_o we_o call_v a_o fever_n but_o this_o ferment_n have_v recruit_v its_o force_n and_o be_v augment_v both_o by_o time_n and_o the_o aliment_n take_v will_v not_o fail_v to_o give_v battle_n to_o the_o blood_n as_o former_o those_o who_o have_v any_o knowledge_n in_o chemistry_n and_o have_v make_v observation_n on_o the_o opperation_n of_o nature_n will_v easy_o be_v of_o my_o opinion_n for_o they_o will_v have_v observe_v that_o a_o long_a fermentation_n be_v require_v to_o make_v a_o liquor_n that_o be_v sweet_a become_v acid_a and_o that_o there_o must_v be_v a_o certain_a quantity_n of_o liquor_n one_o contrary_a to_o another_o to_o produce_v a_o fermentation_n that_o be_v considerable_a by_o this_o one_o may_v give_v a_o reason_n why_o those_o who_o observe_v no_o regimen_n and_o forbear_v nothing_o that_o they_o imagine_v will_v gratify_v their_o appetite_n cause_v the_o fit_a to_o come_v soon_o and_o to_o continue_v long_o on_o the_o contrary_a those_o who_o govern_v themselves_o regular_o be_v soon_o deliver_v from_o that_o domestic_a enemy_n at_o the_o same_o time_n may_v be_v see_v the_o reason_n why_o the_o fever_n cease_v if_o the_o ferment_n be_v change_v by_o a_o medicament_n contrary_n to_o its_o nature_n and_o which_o may_v reduce_v it_o to_o its_o first_o state_n and_o that_o without_o any_o considerable_a evacuation_n have_v i_o be_v mind_v to_o make_v a_o book_n rather_o than_o a_o kind_n of_o letter_n i_o shall_v here_o have_v make_v some_o observation_n upon_o

and_o tame_v be_v thereby_o render_v more_o fierce_a and_o wild_a or_o that_o they_o pass_v but_o only_o into_o the_o vein_n and_o artery_n nay_o it_o often_o happen_v that_o the_o agitation_n which_o they_o make_v in_o the_o several_a part_n of_o the_o body_n pervert_v their_o action_n and_o do_v extreme_o weaken_v the_o patient_n and_o carry_v off_o too_o much_o bile_n which_o be_v the_o balm_n of_o the_o chyle_n and_o blood_n when_o it_o be_v not_o irritate_v 13._o whether_o vomitives_n be_v febrifuge_n vomitives_n be_v sometime_o necessary_a for_o the_o sick_a of_o fever_n but_o especial_o when_o the_o sick_a person_n find_v in_o himself_o a_o disposition_n to_o vomit_v because_o they_o discharge_v the_o stomach_n of_o those_o impurity_n which_o hinder_v it_o from_o do_v its_o office_n and_o evacuate_v the_o matter_n which_o will_v augment_v the_o ferment_n so_o that_o they_o be_v not_o febrifuge_n but_o by_o accident_n nay_o they_o be_v very_o often_o dangerous_a because_o they_o do_v much_o fatigate_v the_o patient_n weaken_v the_o stomach_n and_o sometime_o open_a the_o vessel_n of_o the_o lung_n in_o a_o quartain_a particular_o you_o must_v make_v no_o use_n of_o they_o when_o it_o have_v continue_v too_o long_o because_o the_o ferment_n be_v glutinous_a and_o infilterate_v into_o the_o first_o region_n can_v be_v dislodge_v without_o violent_a effort_n if_o they_o be_v mild_a they_o do_v but_o cause_v a_o emotion_n or_o disturbance_n and_o if_o they_o be_v violent_a they_o put_v the_o patient_n in_o danger_n of_o his_o life_n unless_o he_o be_v of_o a_o very_a robu_v constitution_n and_o herein_o i_o think_v myself_o oblige_v to_o give_v the_o public_a this_o advertisement_n that_o they_o be_v very_o cautious_a how_o they_o commit_v themselves_o to_o

for_o the_o most_o part_n antimonial_a and_o of_o the_o most_o violent_a which_o be_v put_v up_o in_o a_o little_a room_n or_o water_n wherein_o they_o have_v boil_v vitriol_n or_o arsenic_n or_o reagale_n which_o never_o operate_v without_o cause_v a_o furious_a irritation_n or_o convulsion_n of_o the_o stomach_n and_o if_o they_o do_v carry_v off_o the_o fever_n yet_o do_v they_o leave_v behind_o they_o impression_n of_o heat_n in_o the_o visera_fw-la pain_n in_o the_o stomach_n and_o spit_v of_o blood_n it_o be_v but_o just_a that_o the_o judge_n of_o the_o court_n establish_v for_o the_o punishment_n of_o poisoner_n shall_v take_v cognizance_n of_o such_o as_o kill_v the_o sick_a by_o these_o poison_n though_o they_o may_v say_v that_o a_o small_a quantity_n of_o these_o drug_n be_v not_o capable_a of_o poison_v yet_o i_o will_v maintain_v that_o when_o they_o give_v they_o to_o person_n of_o delicate_a constitution_n who_o die_v of_o it_o one_o may_v just_o say_v that_o they_o have_v give_v they_o poison_n beside_o that_o under_o pretence_n of_o these_o dangerous_a remedy_n it_o will_v be_v easy_a for_o a_o poisoner_n to_o augment_v the_o quantity_n of_o his_o dose_n and_o then_o say_v he_o give_v it_o only_o for_o a_o vomit_n 14._o whether_o the_o make_n one_o self_n drink_v with_o wine_n or_o aquâ_fw-la vitæ_fw-la will_v cure_v a_o fever_n wine_n drink_v to_o a_o excess_n cause_v a_o great_a ebullition_n in_o the_o blood_n and_o often_o drive_v out_o by_o different_a way_n the_o cause_n of_o the_o fever_n and_o some_o have_v be_v so_o cure_v but_o this_o be_v not_o a_o example_n to_o be_v imitate_v for_o one_o ought_v to_o be_v very_o well_o assure_v of_o his_o own_o strength_n and_o the_o resistance_n which_o a_o body_n already_o grow_v feeble_a with_o the_o effect_n of_o the_o disease_n can_v make_v against_o the_o effect_n of_o drunkenness_n as_o it_o may_v be_v either_o a_o lethargy_n pleurisy_n or_o death_n itself_o so_o that_o he_o

to_o the_o hollander_n who_o have_v accustom_v themselves_o to_o drink_v it_o and_o so_o can_v better_o support_v the_o effect_n they_o drink_v it_o common_o before_o the_o cold_a fit_a which_o it_o
