be prevented 53. If 2. During Heat such Medicins be given which will overcome the Fire that is more Corroding then Burning and be compounded of temperd Acids not neglecting Volatil Salts The following Mixture therfore oft taken by Spoonfuls may conduce ℞ Water of Parsley Fumitorie of each ℥ i. ss of Fenel ℥ i.

M. Take ℥ iii or iv of this Decoction twice or thrice a day till a commodious Evacuation of the Serous Humors follow 56. They who prefer a Conserve may oft take the quantity of a Nutmeg of this following which ℞ Conserve of Damask-Roses ℥ i. ss Electuary of the Juice of Roses ℥ i. Pouder of Jabap Rootʒ ii of Creme of Tartarʒ i. with a little of the solutive Syr. of Roses M. for a Conserve Our Hydragogue Electuary describ'd before in Chap. 7. Sect. 55. may also avail being very mild and grateful 57. If 4. a Lymphatic Fever siezes on a Phlethoric Body and especially in the Summer Constancy of Air I would not disswade a mean Blooding especially of those that are accustomd to it seeing they bear it better and more commodiously 58. But if 5. a Lymphatic Fever come upon one Choleric then by reason of Choler not only drawn into consent but making an Heat greater then is wont both Altering and Purging Medicins may be us'd judiciously to be compos'd of these propos'd before and in Sect. 40 c. For Example take this following Decoction satisfying both Indications if us'd in a mean quantity till a moderat Purging follow ℞ Succorie Fenel-Root of each ℥ i. Fumitorie Burrage-Leavs of each M. i. Boil them in Barley-Water adding to ℥ xx of what is straind Syr. of Succorie with Rhubarb of Diacnicum of each ℥ i. ss Sp. of Salt dulcifi'dʒ ss M. 59. If by reason of Choler vitiated by Lympha great Heat follow by reason also of it Bleeding may avail as we shewd you before in Sect. 45 46. 60. If Lastly 6. the Lymphatic Fever be Catarrhal then because the Glandul's that are in the Head are affected before all the other Conglobated Glandul's Medicins are to be prepar'd so that the Part most affected be chiefly minded To which end the Restoring of the Glandul's of the Head may be tri'd by Fuming but among Vniversals both Altering and Emptying Medicins may be us'd which are actually observd most appropriated and useful to the Head yea Evacuation peculiar to the Head should in time be had 61. You may therefore Fume with Amber Mastich and such-like which should not only be receivd as oft as can conveniently be in at the Nostrils and Mouth the Head being coverd but all the Head-Cloaths should be fum'd with the same and soon after put on lest the power of the Fuming be lost by delay 62. Let this following be an Example of a Vniversal Altering and Evacuating Decoction to be us'd as the forme ℞ The Root of Pionie Vipers-Grass of each ℥ i. of Smallage ℥ ss the Leavs of Betonie Violets P●i●●●●se of each M. i. Gummie Turbith ℥ ss Mechoacan-Roatʒ ii Crude Tartarʒ i. ss Mountain Siler-seedsʒ ii Boil them in pure Water adding to ℥ xx of what is straind Syr. of Diacnicum ℥ ii M. 63. The Particular Evacuations of the Head are obtaind by Errhins and Masticatories The new Leavs of Betonie or Majoran being rubd between your Fingers and put into the Nostrils may afford a benign Errhina and the Sp. of Salt Armoniac appli'd to the Nostrils in a little Bottle with a long Neck will much conduce because it both loosens the Viscous Humor that obstructs the Glandul's and tempers the saltish-sowr humor thence bred 64. Mastich alone or the root of Pellitory of Spain chewd draws down Phlegm and Serous Liquor into the Mouth out of the Head to be spit out 65. III. A Pancreatical Synochal Fever may be Cur'd If 1. more mild Medicins be us'd that Temper the Acid Humor as are all Lixivial Salts but chiefly those Volatil and Oily For which reason Opium avails exceedingly here and every Opiat and Aromatic Medicin Of which we have prescrib'd several Compounded Medicins all over in this Work Yet with an over-plus take this following Mixture to be us'd by Spoonfuls so long as Cold urgeth ℞ Parsley Grass Fenel-Water of each ℥ i. Aqua Vitae of Matthiolus or simple Treacle-Waterʒ x. Laudanum iii. Grains Syrup of the five Roots ℥ i. M. 66. If 2. Heat now urging by Reason of Choler vitiated and drawn to consent Medicins be given fit to temper both the Acid and salt Acrimonie together and therfore prepar'd of two sharp things but broken To which end the following Decoction may avail drunk oft to some ounces ℞ Smallage Succorie-Roots of each ℥ i. Agrimony-Leavs Fenel Fumitory-tops of each M. i. Boil them in Barley-Water adding to ℥ xx of what is straind Syr. of Byzantium ℥ iii. Sp. of Salt dulcifi'd ℈ i. or Sp. of Nitre xii drops M. for a Decoction 67. If any like a Mixture better you may prescribe the following to be taken by Spoonfuls ℞ Carduus Fenel-Water of each ℥ i. ss simple Treacle-Water ℥ ss Spirit of Salt dulcifi'd ℈ i. Laudanum iii. Gr. Syr. of Fumitory ℥ i. M. 68. If 3. this Fever be troublesom by permanent Anxieties about the Midrif by reason of over-viscous Phlegm together concurring and resolvd into Flatulent Vapors Oily Volatil Salts and distild Oils added in a small quantity to the preceding Mixtures may conduce For Example ℞ Fumitory Mint-Water of each ℥ i. ss Matthiolus his Aqua Vitae ℥ ss Sp. of Nitre viii drops Laudanum ii Gr. distild Oil of Mace iii drops Syr. of Mint ℥ i. M. 69. If 4. Gripes of the Belly chiefly urge because of the Humor of the Pancreas not only more Sowr but together more Tart oily Volatil Salts will chiefly conduce or made Oily distild Oils being added and put to the Mixtures to be taken by Spoonfuls For Example take this following Form ℞ Mint Fenel Parsley Scurvygrass-Water of each ℥ i. Sp. of Nitre x drops Laudanum iii Gr. * The Author approv'd not of that Sp. distild on
so many as may be co●veni●nt in th● Mo●●ing ●asting that the vitious H●mors may be expell●d slowly and kindly 51. 4. Pain j●in'd with the sense of Contorsion and rising from the tartness of the Juice of the Pancreas coupled together with its Acidi●y may be cur'd by often taking the Sp. of Salt Armoniac as an approv'd Remedy by frequent use in correcting Sowrness to 3 4. or more drops in Wine or rather in a convenient Mixture often prescrib'd in this Book 52. H●re also the Tincture of Castor ma●● conduce in like manner using a few drops of it in Wine or rather to be added to a Mixture and so take it by Spoonfuls For Example ℞ penyroyal-Penyroyal-Water ℥ ii Fenel Water ℥ i. Tincture of Castorʒ iii. Laudanum 2 Gr. Syr. of Mintʒ vi M. 53. 5. Troublesom Pain with a sense of Weight rising from plentiful and viscous Phlegm may be Cur'd by Medicius both correcting and cutting it and gradually emptying it mention'd in Chap. 2. Sect. 28 c. 54. 6. A Distending Pain stirr'd up by Wind may be cur'd both by correcting viscous Phlegm and over-sharp Choler and also mildly and succellively by emptying both peccant in plenty and also by discussing Wind or hindring and stopping their Encrease 55. Beside these things which are all over in this and other form●r Chapters mention'd to correct and educe both Humors peccant here we will subjoin certain external things commodiously to be us'd in this Disease 56. Therefore to diss●lve vis●●●s Phlegm and to discuss Wind then ●●●riling the Ointment Martiatum and 〈◊〉 comp●ua●●●●f Marsh-mal●ws c. adding Oil of Cham●●il● white Li●●●s B●ys c. will fitly cond●●e if the Be●●y and ●●pecially us upper part ●●anointed therewith For Exampl ℞ The Compound Vngu●nt of Marsh-malows or Martiatum Oil of White-Lilies of each ℥ ss Oil of Bricksʒ i. M. for an Ointment If all the Belly of Infants were anointed for a time when they go to bed it is wonderful how happily Phlegm contain'd in their Belly will be dissolv'd and Wind bred from thence distending all the Belly will be discuss'd and the leanness of the Universal Body as also for the most part too great loosness following may by little and little be Cur'd as I have experienc'd it very many times 57. Twenty years since I prescrib'd the following Vnguent and Plaister to be appli'd to the upper Region of the Belly of a Man at Amsterdam about fifty years old that had a great unequal and hard Tumor in the left Hypochondrium the bigness of an Arm reaching forward toward the right side according to the most frequent situation of the ●olon ascrib'd to the Spleen by other Physicians together with other Symptoms of the Hypochordriac Disease beside Pills made of Gums often describ'd in this Book By the help whereof the same Tumor was softned and the most part of it taken away ℞ The Compound Vnguent of Marsh-malows or Martiatum Oil of Capers of eachʒ i. Oil of Bricksʒ ii M. 58. The Plaister which the same Man us'd succesfully because I have found it often effectual in discussing Wind and Tumors thence arising I here set it down for younger Physicians sake The Plaister of Sylvius discussing Wind. ℞ Gum Galbanum Bdellium Ammoniac of each ℥ ss Male-Frankincense Red-Myrrh of eachʒ ii Opium of Thebesʒ i. Dissolve them in Vinegar ●f Squills and when they are again thickned add Yellow-Wax Colophonie of each ʒ iii. Natural Balsam Oil of Bricks of eachʒ i. Oil of Earthʒ ss Distill'd Oil of Caruas ℈ ss Venice-Turpentine what suffices M. According to Art make it a Plaister This Plaister is to be spread upon soft Leather first form'd according to the greatness and shape of the Tumor to be observ'd a Paper being laid upon it and cut 59. Volatil oily Salts do potently and also mildly discuss Wind before many others In the Use whereof I have observ'd somthing worth note to wit that Wind is produc'd by them as often as viscous Phlegm sticks in the Ventricle or Guts but such Wind as is soon by their force dissipated or breaking forth or otherwise ceasing whence we argue that the Wind rising from vitious Humors in the Body more or less viscous may by degrees be discust and abolisht by the afore-said Salts which Experience also confirms 60. In the Use of which Oily Salts this is also notable that viscous Phlegm is gradually cut and amended by them so that whatsoever for the most part both Wind and the Matter thereof requir'd to their Cure these Oily Salts can perform it all 61. To correct the Acrimonie of Choler always more or less peccant the Sp. of Nitre conduceth before all other things which also discusses Wind at least makes it cease hindring its farther rise Of which and other things belonging hither we have already spoken in Chap. 9. Sect. 26 c. 62. 7. A Piercing and Wandring Pain rising from acid and sharp Vapors may be Cur'd by tempering that sharp Acidity with Aromatic Medicins that have a volatil oily Salt and especially with Opiats also added often here and there describ'd in this Book and by expelling mildly out the Humors and Vapors peccant by Sudorifics which also temper the same but seldom using Purges unless the vitious Humors be first corrected and temper'd Of all which we have often treated in this Book 63. 8. A Corroding Burning Pain caus'd by sharp Choler may be Cur'd with Medicins sowrly-tart or harsh Verjuice Pomegranate Juice c. and also with several ●ily things Emulsions especially made of Barly Sweet-Almonds White Poppy Seeds and such like also with viscous Food as Sea-Fish and the Extreme parts of any living Creature out of which much Jelie may be drawn the Feet Heads c. 64. The same Choler when it also is peccant in too much quantity is to be diminish'd and carri'd out by mild and somwhat sowr Cholagogues especially Tamarinds Cassia and such like 65. The Ascarides causing a corroding Pain in the Fundament are thence to be taken out alive or dead and their farther encrease to be hinder'd 66. Bitter things join'd to sweet things kill these Worms Suppositories of Aloes Wormwood c made with Hony and put up which promoted both their removal and exclusion 67. The Medicins hinder the rise of these Worms that both correct and expel any vitious and especially Phlegmatic Humors in the Body often mention'd 68. 9. A Contusing Pain arising from much Phlegm and little Acida●ss may be Cur'd by diminishing Phlegm● by Phlegm igogues often recited and tempering s●●rness by spiritous ●●ly and saltish things both fixt and vol●●l often noted 69. 10. A Rending and Corroding Pain without heat not to be ascrib'd to a pure Acidity not diminish'd by other things may be cur'd by Medicins that potently concentrate and mitigate sowrness among which the first is Opium Hither may all Aromatics b● reduc'd whether Spiritous or Oily often commended 70. And now it will not be difficult from what we have
commodiously with Aromatics and any Volatil Salt but especially so us'd that the whole Body grow warm either with Motion or a Fire or Bath or Cloaths also whereby the force of the Medicin being disperst all over may come also to the Pancreas it self and its Lateral Passages and so to the place Grievd and Fuel of the Disease which chiefly conduce to Melancholic and Phlegmatic People 133. For Example sake take of this Mixture one Spoonful several times in a day and two or three hours before the Fit coms take three Spoonfuls also increasing the heat of the Body mildly as is abovesaid even to the breathing of a gentle Sweat for so it will perform more and somtimes happily cure the Fever ℞ Parsley-water ℥ ii Fenel-Water ℥ i. Treacle-Water or Aqua Vitae of Matthiolus ℥ i. ss Volatil Salt of Amber ℈ i. Syr. of Carduus ℥ i. M. 134. If the Constitution of the Sick be either Naturally or Preternaturally Choleric let him take sowr things that loosen and cut For Example ℞ Fumitory-Water ℥ iii. Salt Armoniac or Salt of Tartar Vitriolated ʒ i. Diaphoretic Antimony ʒ ss Syr. of Fenel ℥ i. M. 135. When Choleric and Phlegmatic Humors do abound together in the Sick these Mixtures may be prepar'd of the two above-mentiond differing ones For Example ℞ Carduus and Succory-Water of each ℥ i. ss Simple Treacle-Water Distilled Vinegar of each ʒ vi Crabs-Eyes pouderd ʒ ss Syr. of the five Roots ℥ i. M. 136. If the Phlegm Obstructing be not very glutinous the Obstruction is often loosend wholly by one Sweat and its Cause carri'd down into the Small Gut and the Fever Cur'd 137. You may administer a Vomit three or four hours before the return of the Fi● if there be little Phlegm and much Choler in the Body by the h●lp whereof not only Choler abounding ●ut also Phlegm obstructing is expell● to the Small Gut and thence to the Ventricle and at length by the Gullet and Mouth and so the Fever is said to be choak'd because it is remov'd To which end I have often us'd with happy success a Sapa Vomitoria made by my Self of Glass of Antimony and other Medicins made of Antimony in this case proper before all others 138. Such things also as Purge perform the same if they have such as both cut and purge Phlegm mixt with them For Example ℞ Fetid Pils ℈ ss Troches of Alhandal Mercury dulcifi'd of each Gr. 5. Oil of Amber 2 drops M. Make them into five Pills Guilded and tak● them four or five hours before the Fit com●s which will purge mildly 139. II. The Encreasd Acidity and Acrimony of the Juice of the Pancreas is best Temperd with Volatil Salts and all Aromatics not neglecting Opiats To this end therfore the Mixture prescrib'd in Sect. 133. may be us'd and it will be more effectual if you add to it Laudanum three Grains and Oil of Cloves two Drops 140. III. The Vitious Effervescency of the Juice of the Pancreas and Choler may be Hindred at least Amended with the newly commended Mixture and chiefly because of Opium wonderfully lenifying and tempering both kinds of Sharpness by its Oiliness 141. And by these few forms any young Practitioner may easily invent other Prescriptions in some things to be vari'd as the Distemper requires especially if he attend to all the Rules and Examples of Forms which he may find here 142. And now we have premis'd the Rational Cure of Intermitting Fevers as Intermitting confirmd by long Experience let us see what the Symptoms so notable by their great diversity and oft so troublesom to the Sick do indicate and require for their Cure 143. Against Coldness and the other Symptoms that usually accompany it the Mixture prescrib'd in Sect. 133. is convenient here if you add what we commend Sect. 139. seeing I have not observd hitherto that any thing does so temper Coldness as Oil of Cloves and while the Sick is Cold he may take three or four times in an hour a Spoonful of the above-mentiond Mixture 144. To temper Heat and its Symptoms accompanying the Mixtures every where prescrib'd as also the Decoction set down in Chap. 29. Sect. 40 c. are convenient to the imitation of which you may easily form more 145. III. In Epial Fevers Medicins compos'd of the forem●ntiond differing Prescriptions are convenient such as is the Mixture propos'd in § 135. and many other s●ch-like in this Treatise also any may form 〈◊〉 according to the Symptom that most molests and change it after it is taken with different success Fo● we must always attend to such things as Conduce or are Prejudicial and according to them Remedies are to be alterd and renewd seeing in this the Judgment and Ingenuity of Physicians appears 146. IV. To asswage and take away Thirst I commend what I mentiond in Chap. 29. Sect. 47. And note that during Heat you may drink more plentifully whereof take heed whilst Coldness molests in which time it is safer to wash the Mouth with clean Water and moreover mix with Wine and to deceive Thirst rather then drink much or then you may dissolve some of Lapis Prunellae in Drink and often take it in a small quantity 147. V. To Cure Hunger that threatens fainting all things conduce that do potently destroy and concentrate the Sowr Humor Crabs-Eyes Pearl Coral Chalk c. only reduc'd into Pouder and exhibited in Mixtures otherwise conducing or alone in another Liquor Wine Beer or Broth to the quantity of some Grains till Hunger is observ'd to be diminisht 148. VI. The Heart-ake so oft very grievous is chiefly Cur'd by Opiats which may be added to divers Medicins according to the diversity of the other Symptoms also concurring because they mitigate and asswage both kinds of Sharpness whence that Pain of the Ventricle arises But they must be taken oft and in a little quantity until the diminishing or curing of the Pain being the benefit sought for be obtaind 149. VII The Mixture mentiond in Chap. 29. Sect. 69. to be taken by Spoonfuls is proper in G●iping and Colical Fevers Hither reduce those things propos'd by me in Chap. 14. Sect. 45 c. and elsewhere more at large 150. VIII To prevent Swounings I commend the Mixture prescrib'd in Chap. 19. Sect. 74. or one like it oft us'd by Spoonfuls some hours before the Fit and the other things there mentiond 151. IX Hypochondriac Suffocations joind to Intermitting Fevers are to be diminisht and cur'd by Medicins mentiond by me both elswhere and in Chap. 19. Sect. 71 c. 152. X. Wheasing Anxiety coupled to the same Fevers seeing it arises from the same Cause but not so violent may be Cur'd or Lessend with such-like Medicins as well when the Fit molests as begins and oft us'd in a lesser quantity 153. XI An Asthma accompanying an Intermitting Fever may happily be Cur'd with a Vomit taken some hours before the Fit comes or the day before after the
into such long threds which is not unfrequent in Chymical Changes 49. Gravel setling at the bottom of the Vrin is of all kinds both little and greater both that may be crumm'd and solid both red and yellow or somwhat ashie and so coming nearer to the nature of Stones yea for the most part giving them their first rising and daily cherishing and encreasing them for the substance of Gravel growing together encreases into Stones in hot Urin more slowly and more straitly then in it being coold 50. Wherin this force of growing together and of making Stones consists is not enough known I will frely declare what I conjecture in this obscure matter wherby I may according to my power the more help others that are Ingenious to search out this hidden Truth All Stones such at least as I have hitherto seen are Dissolvd in the sowr Spirit of Salt-Peter or Nitre whence I conclude that the Coagulation of Stones cannot be expected from an Acid Spirit as such therfore from another somwhat contrary to it in part at least If any consider the several things that promote a growing together of natural things he will find that that force is in Tart things whence the Gluti●ousness and Toughness of fluid things is wont to be ●roduc'd to which if Earthy and Volatil Salt parts ●e joind somthing breaks forth not much unlike ●tones I incline therfore to this Opinion That an Earthy and Volatil Salt Matter joind to a Glutinous ●hing Grows together in Stones by help of a Tart Humor The force of a Tart Humor coagulating is weakned by a sharp Acid such as is found in the Spirit of Nitre 51. Fleshy parts found in Urin usually arise from ●n Ulcer in the Kidneys and their parts separated ●rom the rest of the Body and voided together with ●he Urin. 52. Blood and Clots of it occurring in the Urin testifie some Vessel of Blood in the Kidneys Vreters Bladder or Vrethra burst or corroded 53. Purulent Matter for the most part follows an Abscess in the Kidneys Bladder or its Neck and Sphin●cter or Vrethra burst seldom arising from a Pleurisie or Peripneumonie or such a like Inflammation turnd into an Aposteme 54. Worms in the Kidneys for the most part arise from Blood there corrupted and being driven down into the Bladder together with Urin are voided 55. Among the more ordinary things Containd in Vrin and taking their Original from that part of Blood which is less apt to nourish the Body and moreover not departing from its laudable Constitution a little Cloudiness consists of its most fat and least earthy and so lighter part a Sediment on the contrary of its least fat and most earthy and therfore heavier part an Enaeorema lastly of a mean part that is partaking of each Whence as the Matter of every thing Containd is more pure so it will keep its place more accuratly and according as it is more impure partaking more or less of any thing so every one of them doth more or less decline from its place 56. A greater quantity of the things Containd signifies much unuseful Matter is in the Blood and so to be separated as a less quantity signifies there is less of that Matter if the other Signs agree 57. These Containd things how much the whiter they be are lik'd so much the more and they are the signs of a laudable Concoction that is desir'd Alteration or Correction and hence Separation of the hurtful Humors in the Blood how much the more they decline from whiteness such as are red and chiefly black so much the more are they dislik'd and they are signs of a deficient Concoction and so of greater danger 58. So an Equality of the thing Containd and not Severd gives the sign of Concoction wanting as the Vnequal and Disjoind of a Concoction to be feard 59. That we may now address our selvs to the Cure of the noted Harms the Separation of Vrin deficient because of the Fleshy parts of the Kidneys obstructed may be restor'd by Medicins that cut attenuate and make Glutinous Phlegm fluid anon with Diuretics and such things as send forward Urin. 60. The Medicins that cut and make Phlegm fluid are already oft before mentiond amongst which they here excel which are also call'd Diuretics wherby they may use their force sooner and more easily such are the Roots of Smallage Fenel Eringo Parsley c. Leavs of Chervil Rue Nettle Agrimony c. Seeds of Hart-wort Gromwel Saxifrage Parsley Fenel c. Berries of Juniper Elder Dwarf-Elder c. Peach-Kernels Bitter-Almonds c. Spirit of Salt and Nitre c. any Volatil Salt of which effectual Medicins may be prepar'd and given in a different Form according to the pleasure of the Sick and his divers Constitution 61. For Example the following Decoction may be us'd somtimes a day to ℥ ii or iii. ℞ Smallage Eringo-Roots of each ℥ i. Leavs of Water-Agrimony Chervil ●f each M. i. Juniper-Berries new and beaten ℥ ii Boil ●hem in pure Water adding to ℥ xx of what is straind Syr. of the Five Roots ℥ iii. Sp. of Nitre or of Salt what suffices for a grateful Acidity M. 62. They who esteme a Medicin to be taken in less quantity may use the following Mixture ℞ Parsley Fenel-Water of each ℥ ii Aqua Vitae of Matthiolus or ●he Antinephritic Amsterdam Water ℥ i. Sp. of Salt Armoniac xx drops Oil of Juniper-Berries x drops Syr. ●f the Five Roots ℥ i. M. Let the Sick take a Spoon●ul oft in a day and if watchings or pains molest ●dd iii Gr. of Laudanum to the Mixture 63. By these Medicins will Glutinous Phlegm obstructing the Fleshy parts of the Kidneys not only be cut but by the same means it being again made Fluid will be mildly driven to their Funnel 64. If the Voiding of Urin procede more slowly after either of the mentiond Medicins has been taken for several hours the Sick may commodiously drink a good quantity of the Mineral Diuretick Waters such as are of the Spaw Sualbac and others whether they be us'd pure or the 4th or 5th part of old Wine and also Diuretical * Or rather dropping a little of his Oily Volatil Salt in the Waters be mixt with them 65. When plenteous and glutinous Phlegm are together in the Body then it being so prepar'd and loosend with convenient Phlegmagogues of which we oft made mention before may be diminisht and carri'd out 66. If external Cold ill affect the Region of the Loins and therin the Fleshy part of the Kidneys their ill Constitution may be amended again by Aromatical Sudorifics and Volatil Salts but rather us'd at repeted times then together and once only for so Sudorifics do no● only carry out the fluid Humors but besides alter an● amend the Containd Parts 67. The Acidity of Lympha and the Juice of th● Pancreas howsoever encreasd may be again corrected and diminishd by a frequent taking of Volatil Salt● daily to
