XX Of Feavers annexed to Quartans THe Quintan Sextan Septan and Nonan Feavers differ not from intermitting Quartans either in matter or cure but in the quantity of the humour and disposition of the body rather than from the rising setting and congression of some Starres as the Astrologers would have it all these Feavers have their name from the motion they observe returning upon the fifth sixth seventh or ninth day The cause of these circuits depends not only on disordered diet or the relicks of the morbifical matter not emptied nor on the quantity quality or crasness and clamminess of the humour nor on the influx of the Starrs or disposition of the body but rather from the starry Element which Hippocrates calls something Divine when a quartan is caused from very crasse and tough flegme and a melancholly humour very crass it may then bee extended beyond the fourth day saith Paulus Aegi and Rhasis speakes of those returned every tenth day and once a moneth that the quantity and quality of both humours and disposition of body doe contribute somewhat none will deny but the cause of the Circuits Histories doe report to be referred to the element of Stars Pliny speaks of Antipater the Poet who lived very long and every year on his Birth-day had a Feaver Galen saies he hath seen Quintans but obscurely but Avicen boasts hee hath seen many but they are rarely contingent Hippocrates presages thus of these Feavers the Nocturnal is not dangerous but long the Diurnal is shorter and sometimes they bring to a Consumption the reason is because the night is likened to Winter at which time cold humours move and because in the night season remedies cannot conveniently be administred a Quintan is the worst of all for to the sound or tabid it is death because it is vehement proceeding from an atra-bilarious humour and not from a melancholly juyce a Septan is long but not lethal and so a Nonan The Cure differs not from that of an exquisite or spurious quartan Take of the leaves of Sena three drams the rootes of true black Hellebore one dram of Anise-seed Dodder of Time Diagridium each half a dram Mastick and salt Gemmeous each a scruple Cloves half a scruple make a fine Powder give a dram in a little White-wine on the fit day in the morn early once a week CHAP. XXI Of confused compounded and erratick Feavers ALL these are of the kinde of essential Feavers and differ not from the precedent neither in matter nor putrefaction for they are all putrid but in the seat and motion of the morbifical humour A confused Feaver is so called from the seat when humours doe equally putrefie in the greater or lesser veines as if choller and flegme doe putrefie together in the greater veines there shall be two continual Feavers because these two humours mixt doe putrefie in the same place beginning and ending together and by reason of this mixtion they cannot be known distinctly or apart because their signes are confounded from whence this Feaver hath its name likewise if both those humours putrefie in the lesser veines which are in the habit of the body or in the Stomach Liver Mesentery Spleen or Cuts together in the same place there shall be two intermitting Feavers which mixed doe constitute a confuse and not a compound Feaver On the contrary A compound Feaver is as oft as the humours doe inequally putrefie not in one place as the confused but in divers places together whether in the greater or lesser veines and this Feaver hath its name from the predominant humour as in a bastard Tertian where choller predominates likewise if there be more flegme or melancholly humour it shall then be called a bastard quotidian or quartan which Feavers are com-Pound and not confused because their matter putrefies in divers places and they begin and end at divers hours because every one hath its several essence seat and motion also two quotidians and a double tertian and a double or triple quartan are Compound Feavers as often as their matter putrefies in divers places and thus a semi-tertian which is compounded of choller putrefied in the greater veines from whence is a continual and flegme out of them whence is an intermitting Feaver or of flegme putrefied in the greater Veines and choller out of them and is called a Hemitritaean thus also a Hectick Feaver with a putrid doe make a Compound Feaver because the efficient cause of a
tertian have great analogy with those of an exquisite causus only they are more milde the not exquisite are distinguisht by rigour not by reason of the Feaver but the expulsive faculty of the greater Veines which empty themselves into the less and these into the habit and sensible parts this Feaver because its morbifical matter is more distant from the heart then that of a Causus doth not with equal force and assiduity afflict it but hath its exacerbations and remissions every other day If the parts about the heart be distended without paine they signifie an inflammation if with paine at the beginning death If the signes bee grievous it kills the fourth or seventh day if good security is promised the same dayes if a rigour happen on the critical day the Patient being weak it is death but if strong the Disease shall end with sweat CHAP. XII Of the Cure of these Feavers LEt it be temperate or if too hot be cooled with irrigations on the floore and spreading coole Herbs as Lettice Vine leaves Willow Oke Rushes c. with green flowers of Water-Lillies Roses Violets let vinegar of Roses dilute with Rose-water suckt up by a Spunge be often ●eld to the Nose let the Linnen contrary to the vulgar opinion bee often changed lest its filth foment the Feaver Let his drink be boyled water with sirrup of Vinegar or ptissan or water and sugar with a little juyce of Pomegranats Citron or Lemons if you fear a Delirium use the Alexandrine Julep or sirrup of Violets and Water-Lillies If the Feaver bee spurious and the Patient aged and weak in a cold air a little Wine dilute with boyled water and sugar with a toast may be allowed let his food be liquid cooling and moystning as Chicken Veale or Lambe broth altered with Purslane Lettice Sorrel Burrage Bugloss Violets Marigolds with the greater cold Seeds and white Poppy-seed or Barley-water acid Fruites as Barberies Strawberies Rasberies resist putrefaction if he be much enfeebled Gellies and Analepticks must bee used Let bloud as soon as you can but if hee bee bound in body give this Glister first Take of Violet leaves Mallows Lettice Gourds Burrage each a handful Prunes sixteen of the four great cold Seeds each two drams red Poppy-flowers or Water-Lilly and Roses each a small handful boyle them in Whey or Water to a pint streine it and dissolve of Diaprune simple and Cassia newly drawn if it be exquisite if not of Diaphenicum each six drams honey of Violets and oyl of Water-Lillies each an ounce and half or so much of oyle of Cammomel if it be not exquisite and make a Glister Take of Melon-seeds one scruple Rhubarb grosse powdered if you would purge choler by stoole or fine powdered if by urine four scruples Cassia newly drawn six drams let him take it with Sugar and an hour and half after take fresh broth As often as Cassia or any other purging Medicine is infused the Dose is to be doubled and where you feare obstructions never purge with those things that have an astriction as Myrobalans Roses and the sirrups made of them but instead of them use Manna Cassia or sirrup of Violets of nine infusions next alter the humour with Juleps which inhibit putrefaction As take of sirrup of Endive compound three ounces Succory and Purs●ane water each half a pint but if they be spurious take of Oxysaccarum compound which hath the opening roots in it and a little juyce of Pomgranates after signes of coction purge forth the humour thus Take of Cinnamon a scruple Rhubarb four scruples Tamarinds two drams Diaprune solutive six drams infuse them all night on warm embers in a decoction of the opening rootes strein it adde sirrup of Violets of nine intusions or of Roses solutive with Agarick if the Feaver be illegitimate an ounce and half and give the potion in a Spurious causus take so much Diaphaenicum which purges flegme and choler but if the Patient have a paine in the stomach and be nauseative let him take a Vomit so he be not tabid or narrow chested CHAP. XIII Of a continual Quotidian Feaver {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} and {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} the Juniors call it because it hath no intermission and to distinguish it from {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} which is an intermitting quotidian This Feaver differs from an intermitting both in matter and seat where the flegme putrefies because a continual one proceeds from Natural flegme contained in the great Veines which is nothing else but crude bloud which in time may be changed into good bloud being of taste sweet or insipid arising from the cold and moyst part of the chyle and as oft as this bloud is putrefied by a preter-natural heat in those Veines the other humours incorrupt is caused a continual quotidian but an intermitting is caused from excrementitious flegme putrefied by a preter-natural heat out of those great Veines viz. in the veines of the habit of the body in the Liver Spleen Messentery The external causes may be taken from the aire cloudy cold and moyst from a flegmatick nature the winter season drunkenness ill diet as entrals of Beasts c. The internal causes are a cold distemper of the stomach and of the meseraick veines which send the chyle incoct to the Liver old age cold humours falling from the head to the stomach This Feaver begins not with coldness as an intermitting because the matter is putrefied in the great Veines but with vaunings and stretchings for the most part it invades at night the heat is less acrid and mordent than in a continual cholerick Feaver because the humour is colder the urine at first is white crude and crass the pulse slow and rare being oppressed with a crass vapour raised from the flegme the sick are sleepy their Hypochondria stretcht with wind their stooles white their sweat none or very little and clammy this Feaver is usually lasting being from a cold tough humour often brings to a Cachexy or Dropsie if the beginning be long so will be the increment and whole progress of the Disease for the Cure let him use a good diet shunning those things which ingender crasse juyces then purge the first region of his body with these following remedies Take of Barley Mercury Violets and Mallows each a handful Fennel and Carret-seeds each three drams the tops of Dill and flowers of Cammomel each half a handful boyl them in water to a pint streine it and dissolve of Galens Hiera and Benedicta Laxativa each six drams honey of Rosemary and oyle of Camomel each an ounce and half and so give it If the Sick bee apt to Vomit let him take this Of the juyce of Radish roots and honied water each two ounces powder of Asarum a dram let him drink it warme Take of Succory Barley and all

XIIII Of a continual Quartan {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} that is a quartan Feaver so called because every fourth day it is exasperated and remitted if it be continual but if intermitting recurs every fourth day these two differ both in matter and seat the matter of a continual quartan is Natural melancholly putrefied in the great Veines the other humours remaining good but the matter of an intermitting is excrementitious melancholly putrefied out of the great Veines in the Spleen or mesentery A continual quartan is two-fold exquisite or spurious exquisite when Natural melancholly putrefies alone spurious when other humours putrefie with it in the great vessels and this is most frequent The causes are either from a laborious life a cold and dry temperament a declining age the autumn or an unequal air and meats producing melancholly as Swines flesh Hares Salt Fish Oysters c. The chief signes are taken from the substance of the Feaver or nature of its heat from the actions hurt which appears by the inequality swiftness slowness or rarity of the pulse from the excrements and urine this Feaver begins without horrour because the peccant matter is contained within the great Veines the urine is various but for the most part crude by reason of the coldness of the morbifical humour little or no sweat by reason of the paucity of the matter little thirst and the tongue inclining to black A continual quartan whether exquisite or spurious is deadly in old men especially if it follow an intermitting one or a burning Feaver illcured a spurious quartan if it take in the Summer is for the most part short but if in the Autumn it is long for the Cure first use meats of good juyce rather liquid than solid altered with Burrage Bugloss c. Vse Currans Pine Nuts Figgs Vinegar though it be incifive is not good in this Feaver because by its coldness and driness it conduplicates the humor but were it in the Spleen it were commodious At the beginning use gentle Purgers because by the strength of strong Medicines the humour grows thicker and the thinner part being dissipated the terrene faeces remaine indissoluble but in the declination use stronger if the body be bound give first this Glister Take of Mallows Violets Orech Burrage Bugloss each a handful Flax and Fenugreek-seed each half an ounce of the four great cold seeds and Fennel-seed each two drams for melancholly people are windy of the tops of Dill Camomel Melilot Elder each a small handful in the colature dissolve of Catholicum and Diasena each six drams honey of Violets and oyle of Lillies each an ounce and half give the Glister Take of Polipody of the Oke six drams wilde Saffron seeds and Sena each three drams Dodder of time two drams Anni-seeds four scruples Cloves two boyle them in Whey to three ounces then infuse of Diasena or Diacarthamum six drams streine it and adde sirrup of Violets of nine infusions or sirrup of Apples an ounce and half and give it The body being thus emptied let bloud at the left basilick veine with a large Orifice If the sick be inclined to Vomit then give him of the powder of the middle rine of a Walnut or of Broom-seeds or of the roots of Asarum four scruples with the decoction of Reddish rootes make a vomit or Nettle-seed poudered given in Mulse or Whey will doe the like some give three or four grains of Stibium prepared which I allow not but in rustick bodies Take of the sirrup of the juyce of Fumitory three ounces Endive and Burrage-water each half a pint Take of the roots of Bugloss two ounces sharp Dock-grass Butchers Broome Asparagus and Liquorice each an ounce of the middle rine of Tamarisk and Ash or Elder each half an ounce of Fumitory Hops common Endive Succory Milt-waist Balme each a handful Prunes fourteen Cuscute and Purslane-seeds and the four great cold Seeds each two drams flowers of Tamarice Broom Burrage Elder each a handful boyle them in order in a sufficient quantity of water then adde the juyce of sweet Apples three ounces a sufficient quantity of Sugar Aromatize it with a dram and a half of the powder of Galens Laetificans with part of this decoction you may make a magistral sirrup by adding Purgers of melancholly by which the Morbifical humour may bee purged epicrastically to strengthen the viscera use this Take of the Electuary of Hyacinth or confection of Alkermes half a dram powder of Diatriasantali and Galens Laetificans each a dram white Suger dissolved and boyled in Fumitory water four ounces and make it into Lozenges of two drams weight with the conserve of Succory flowers and Milt waist each three drams and give one three hours before Dinner If the Spleen require it use this Oyntment Take of Gum Elemi and juyce of Tobacco each an ounce Oyle of St. Johns-wort or Elder half an ounce of Rosen and Gum Amoniake dissolved in Vinegar of Capers and yellow Wax each two drams on the fire adde powder of long and round Birthwort and Cyclamen root each

XVII Of an intermitting Quotidian THis Feaver is caused from excrementitious flegme putrefied and every day hath new fits with a refrigeration or chilness the place of putrefaction is the smaller veines and habit of the body and chiefly the stomach which is alwaies almost affected in this Feaver sometimes it is in the mesentery the simous part of the Liver Spleen or Wombe but if it putrefie out of the smaller veines it doth not cause a Feaver but some other Malady as if it be putrid and stinking in the Braine or in the Lungs after Cathars and Astma's or in the Wombe from whence is a Womans Flux or in the Guts from whence are Worms or in the bladder or reines where it is dried into stones of divers colours By flegme is here meant any cold and moyst humour produced in us which may be putrefied from a hot or cold cause that putrefied from heat or the mixture of a serous moysture becomes salt from cold if remiss is caused acid flegme if intense the glassie or albugenious from these severall sorts of flegme are ingendred various Feavers A Quotidian Feaver is two-fold the one from excrementitious flegme which is of sweet taste or insipid for the most part produced in the stomach which when it putrefies in the lesser veines makes an exquisite Quotidian the other is when some other humour besides flegme putrefies with it and it is called a bastard quotidian let the Phisician be careful he coufound not a bastard Tertian or double intermitting Tertian or a triple Quartan which have their fits every day with an intermitting quotidian for their cure is farre different and distinction difficult The causes of this Feaver are not unlike those of a continual quotidian gapings and wretchings precede this Feaver with a coldness of the external parts as of the Nose Fingers Ears Hands and Feet with a paine in the stomach seldome with rigour but with a gentle horrour the pulse inequal inordinate slow and weak at first afterwards more vehement and swift the urine first thin white and crude afterwards thick and turbulent sometimes they vomit flegme have acid belchings swellings of the Hypochondria pale faces and little thirst it usually seazes after noon towards the evening or night its fits are for the most part eighteen hours and therefore it is called {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} that is partaking of both day and night its intermission is impure by reason of the quantity crasseness and clamminess of flegme which is left by the former fit and is the cause of the following because it is not breathed forth by sweat as in a tertian this pituitous humour is hardly enflamed and moved but the matter being coct the vehemency of the fits cease as in all other wholesome sicknesses its heat is not burning but meanly acrid The signes of a bastard quotidian are confused by reason of the excrementitious choller or melancholly putrefying with it but if choller bee mixt you may know it from the Vomitings stooles urine pulse and a more acrid and mordent heat for some choller will be cast up the excrement will be yellow and the water tinct with choller the pulse inequal and more frequent than in the exquisite the fits shorter with thirst and bitterness of mouth if melancholly be mixt consider its signes with the Spleen ill-affected Let the dyet be hot and drying incisive and detersive let the drink bee decoction of Sarsa Parilla roote sirrup of Vinegar or Hydromel moyst meat that is substantifically moyst is good for all Feavers saith Hippocrates as broths of euchymous flesh altered with Parsley Fennel Hyssop Savory Marjoram Sage Time with a little Endive Purslaine or Burrage if it be spurious the meat is easily corrupted by a feaverish heat as milke by the hot air let them sleep in the declination and not in the beginning of the fit if the sick bee nauseative give a vomit and then what followeth Take of Sope an ounce powder of simple Hiera Agarick and Salt Gemmious each a dram

the plaister of Mastick two ounces of Ladanum an ounce powder VVormwood two drams red Roses a dram Mace two scruples reduce them to a masse and make a scutiforme plaister for the stomach an Epiala
