GOOD  INSTRVCTIONS  AND 

Rules  of  Knowledge,  very  meet  and  conue- 

nient  to  be  knowne  of  all  fuch  as  are  the  right  Pra- 
(Rifers  of  Pbyfick  and  Chirurgery :  andalfo  concerning 
the  manner  and  vfe  of  *B  loud-letting  and  Purging,  and 
of  the  commoditie  and  diicommoditie 
.  that  oftentimes  fpringeth  and 
commeth  thereof. 

O  r  a  s  M.v  c  h  tvs  Health  is  profitable  and

_ _  Cdnd  alfo  how  that  it  is  the  property  of

that  he  doe  cure  any  manner  of  dfeafe  at  all :  for  how  is 
it  pofltble  to  helpe  nature ,  with  that  thing  which  jhee  had 
need  cf  except  it  be  fir  ft  of all  knowne  what  Jhe  needeth  ? 
which  none  can  perfectly  vndersiand  or  know,  except  the 
chiefe  caufe  of  the  difeafe  beflrft  manifeflly  knowne  'unto 
him  *  infomuch  as  he  may  not  minister  things  direftly 
contrary  to  the  caufe  of  the  fame  difeafe .  And  therefore 
I  doe  greatly  lament  the  ignorance  of  the  common  fort  of 
people ,  who ,  (for  the  moji part)  are  per  [waded,  that  one 
Medicine  is  fujficient  for  one  difeafe,  and  not  regarding 
that  one  difeafe  may  come  of  fundry  caufis  :  and  there- 
fore  it  doth  neceffarily  require  diners  Medicines  (as  for 
example )  weaknejfe  of  the flomacke(that  it  cannot  digejl 
well,  or  that  it  hath  no  good  appetite )  is  a  difeafe  which 
may  come  a  dozen  feuerall  wayes  at  the  lea  ft  •  therefore 
the  Cure  of  that  difeafe,  cannot  alwayes  be  cured  with  one 
onely  Medicine*  k^As  alfe,  if  thatweakenejfeofthe  Jlo - 
macke  doe  come  of  a  weak  difitmperature  of  it  felfe  only , 
then  it  mu  ft  of  neceflity  be  made  hot  by  one  meanesor 
other.  But  if  that  heat  be  the  caufe  of  the  weaknejfe 
thereof:  then  it  mu  ft  be  cooled  with  feme  cold  Medicine 
that  is  ineet for  it,fo  that  you  mufl  be Jure  alwayes  for  to 
moisten  dryneffe,  and  to  dry  vp  moifture. 

But  if  weaknejfe  doe  come  of  feme  fuperfluom  humour 
that  doth  abound,  which  hath  flowed  into  the  ftomacke,or 
that  hath  beetle  there  in  gen  dr ed:  then  mufl  that  ill  hu¬ 
mour  of neceflity  be  purged  out,  either  by  a  Vomit,  or  elfe 
4  Purgation ,  with  a  meeke  Medicine  for  it.  And  if  that 
it  happen  to  be  a  Flegme,  it  mufl  be  holpen  with  fitch  a 
Medicine  as  vtterly  expellet h  Flegme.  But  if  that  C hol¬ 
ler  be  abounding,  thfri  there  mu  ft  of  neceflity  be  vfed

fucha  Medicine  as  doth  purge  Choller.  i^Lnd  Ukewift 
for  Melancholinejfe ,  a  met  Purgation  mutt  be  vfed  to 
ex  fell  the  humour  thereof  But  if  that  the  imbecillity  of 
the  fomacke  be  caufed  by  Di  Hi  Hat  ion  and  Bhumethat 
falleth  out  of  the  head  into  it :  then  is  the  cure  to  be  reme¬ 
died  in  the  heady  and  not  in  the  fomacke.  Like  wifi  if  the 
Dittemperature  of  the  Ltuer  or  Spleene  doe  weaken  the 
fomacke  y  then  the  cure  thereof  confitteth  only  in  the  hea¬ 
ling  of  thofe  members,  and  not  of  the  minifiring  any 
thing  for  the fomacke  at  all. 

Therefore  let  no  manthinke  it  fujficient  for  the  Phy- 
ficion,  if  that  he  doe  perfectly  know  that  a  man  hath fuch 
a  difeafiy  as  the  Ague x  the  Collicke}  the  Flux ,  or  fome  o - 
ther  fuch  like,  &c.  that  then  he  may  prefently  (if  he  be 
skilfull )  mini  ft  er  a  meet  Medicine for  it.  No,  not Jo,  but 
he  muft  fir  ft  [earch  out  by  all  means  that  pofiibly  he  may , 
the  very  caufe  it  felfe  of  the  difeafe.  T he  which  many  ig¬ 
norant  people  doe  perfivade  themfelues ythat  a  skilful  Phy- 
ficion  may  doe  in  all  Difeafes,  by  the  figne  of  the  Vrin 
onely.  But  alas,  they  are  altogether  decerned :  and  as  for 
to  come  to  the  knowledge  of  the  caufe  of  fome  inward  d/fi 
eafes  of  the  body,  the  Vrin  profiteth  nothing  at  all  For 
in  moft  inward  difeafes  of  t he  body ,  there  ought  as  great 
a  regard  to  be  taken  of  the  Pulfes,  and  of  the  diftofition 
and  fate  of  the  braine  of  him  that  is  ficke ,  as  there 
Jhould be  had  of  the  V rin  it  felfe. 

\^Alfi)y  the  Egeftions,  Sweat,  Spettle,  and  other 
excrements ,  are  not  to  be  neglected ,  infomuch  that  at 
fome  times  they  doe  declare  the  caufe  of  the  difeafe y  and 
the ft  ate  thereof,  when  the  V  rin  doth  not  jhevo  any  thing 
at  all

Likemife,  for  example  in  a  Plurifie,w  an  inflamation 
of  the  Lungs,  or  in  a  Squinancie,  orfuchhke,  there  is 

much  more  to  be  kmvne  by  the  Spettle,  than  there  is  by 
the  Vrin.  J 

M oreouer,  in  a  Laske,  or  in  a  Bloudie  Flux,  or  in  a. ' 
Collicke  or  Illiakc,  there  is  more  certainty  of  incite¬ 
ment  to  be  giuen  by  Egeftion  or  Ordur  zjhan  there  it  by 
Vrin.  Which  things ;  thofe  that  are  not  altogether  ad¬ 
dicted  to  their  ownc  fantajies,  may  eafily  by  good  reafon 
be  per (waded  to  credit  it :  for  Vrin  is  nothing  elfe,  but 
only  the  watry  and  wajhie  part  of  the  bloud, for  it  is fepa- 
raudfrom  thebloudin  the  Liner,  and fucked font  thence 
into  the  Reines,  from  whence  it  diftilleth  downe  into  the 
Bladdei,  and  fo  pajfeth  forth.  Seeing  therefore  that 
Vi  in  is  the  ex c  r ement  that  is  feparated  fom  the  bloud  • 
there  is  good  caufc  why  it  (hould  few  the fate  of  the  Li- 
U€r,  andalfoof  the  bloud  in  all  parts  of  the  body,  and  it 
can  Lkewtfe  declare  the ful fate  of  all  the  members  which 
it  pajfeth  by,  as  of  the  Reines,  ^Bladder,  andfuch

But  certainely,  in  other  difeafes  that  be  out  of  the 
Vein  tsyand  bedifr ant  from  the  p  laces  by  which  the  Vrin 
pajfeth:  There  is  no  cert  dine  iudgement  to  be  giuen  by  the 
Vrin,  vnleffe  the  v  eh  emend*  of the  difeafe  haue  tnfetted 
either  the  bloud  or  the  Liner  after  fome  fort  •  Yet  neuer - 
theleffefruch  is  the  ignorance  of  many  people,  for  that  they 
thwke  him  worthy  of  noefrimation  in  the  knowledge  of 

hylicke,  that  cannot  at  the  jirfr  fight  of  the  Vrin  (at- 
though  it  hath  beene  carried ' twenty  miles )  tell  whether

or  f  bee  Jha/l  hue  or  die ,  what  dfeafefoeuer  it  be  of  •  which 
things  'undoubtedly  in  diners  difeafes  are  impoftble  to  be 
know  ne  by  the  onely  fight  and  inf  e chon  of  the  Vrin. 

T herefore  it  is  very  neceffary  and  jit  for  all  thofe  that 
will  take  vpon  them  to  mimfcr  Phy  ficke,  ( mo  ft  duely 
and  rightfully  amongst  other  things  )  to  obferue  well 
t  he fe  fours  Rules  next  following,  (viz.) 

1  To  fee  the  ficke  per  [on,  and  to  confer  re  with  him  or 
her  (  which foetier  it  be )  for  there  is  none  that  can  fo  well 
declare  any  griefe  ( howfoeuer )  as  the  party  himfelfe  can . 
that  is  troubled  or  grieued  therewith . 

2  To  view  and  feele  all  the  Pulfcs  of  the  ficke  perfon f 
and  to  obferue  well  the fate  of them. 

3  Likewife  to  view  and  rnarke  very  diligently  all 
the  excrements,  not  onely  the  V rin,  but  alfo  the  Spettle3 
Sweat,  and  Ordure. 

4  Andlaflof  all,  to  haue  a  ref  e£t  to  the  place  where 
the  griefe  is, and  to  confider  well  all  the  accidents  that  doe 
arife  thereof ;  not  omitting  to  know  the  former  diet  and 
courfe  of  life,  which  the  ficke  perfin  hath  formerly  vfed \ 

Thefi  things  then  being  diligently  and  feuerally  no¬ 
ted,  the  Phyficion  may  more  certainly  learne  and  know 
the  chiefef  caufe  of  the  difeafe,  the  (Irength  thereof  and 
to  what  effect  it  will  come  vnto  •  then  by  feeing  the  V  rin 
onely,  and  alfo  by  what  meanes  hee  may  minifer  a  meet 
medicine  for  it,  whereby  the  ficke  per fon  may  foonefnde 
eafi,  and  hee  purchafe  vnto  himfelfe  exceeding  great 
fame. 

Thus  haue  I  partly  declared,  what  things  ought  to  be 
knowne  of  euery  Phyficion, that  thereby  he  might  with¬ 
draw  and  take  away  the  fond  and foolif  opinion,  that  a

for  it. 

And  now  I  ceafe  to  fleake  any  more  hereof  but  l 
will  as  briefly  as  I  may, entreat  fomewhat  of  the

The  vfe  of  Blouckie  tting,  and  of  the 


j  I  R  S  T,  it  is  to  be  noted,  that  if  the  body  of  a  man 
doe  abound  with  humours,  which  are  ready  to  op- 
preffe  nature,  then  whether  there  bee  any  fickneffe 
in  the  body  prefent,  bymeanesof  them,  or  if  there 
bee  but  danger  of  ficknes,thofe  humours  muft  be  euacuated 
out  of  the  body,eitherby  B  loud-lettingyP  urging^Vomit  ^Swea¬ 
ting,  Baths,  or  elfe  by  iome  other  kinde  ofeuacuation.  But 
I  will  fpeake  here  onely  ofeuacuation  by  Blond-  letting  and 
purging,  and  firft  of  all  of  Blond-letting . 

There  bee  diuers  things  to  beconfidered  of,  before 
Blond-letting :  as  the  age  of  the  patient, the  Complexion, the 
time  of  the  yeare,  the  Region,  the  Cuftome,  the  ftrength, 
and  the  vehemency  ofthe  difeafe. 

1  The  age  muft  be  considered,  becaufe  Children  vnder 
14.  yearesof  age,  and  aged  perfons may notbeletblouds 
vnlefle  great  neceftity  require  it. 

2  The  Complexion  is  to  be  noted,  becaufe  a  hot  com¬ 
plexion  hath  large  Veines ,  and  abound eth  with  much 
blond,  and  they  may  therefore  forbeare  a  good  quantity  of 
blond  :  But  cold  complexions  haue  narrow  Veines,  and 
little  blond, and  therefore  their  euacuation  muft  be  fmall. 

3  The  time  of  the  yeare  muft  be  very  well  marked,  that 
the  weather  be  not  oner-hot  nor  ouer-cold,and  therfore  the 
Spring-time  is  the  moll:  apt  time  for  Blond  letting,  becaufe 
that  then  it  is  temperate. 

A  2  4  The 


0‘ 


Inftrudlions  to  be  obferued 


4  The  region  and  Country  is  to  bee  fpoken  of,becaufe  it 
is  to  be  noted,  that  ifthe  region  be  very  hot,  orelfevery 
colde,  then  it  is  not  good  to  let  bloud, but  a  temperate  regi¬ 
on  is  mod  meet  ofail  for  it. 

5  Cudome  is  not  to  be  neglefred,  for  thereby  we  may 
know  that  they  that  haue  bin  accudomed  to  bleede,  may 
better  fuffer  Blond-letting,  then  thofe  that  were  neuer  let- 
ten  bloud  at  any  time  before. 

6  The  drength  of  the  perfon  mufc  be  regarded,  for  if 
there  be  great  weaknes,  then  it  is  very  dangerous  to  let 
bloud  at  all, except  great  neceflity  compelleth. 

7  Alfo  the  vehemency  of  the  difeafe  is  worthy  to  be 
marked :  for  if  it  be  a  vehement  difeafe ;  then  you  mud  let 
bloud  forthwith, if  the  former  circumdances  wil  permit  it. 

Thcfe  things  being  confidered,ifthey  will  permit  Bloud- 
letting,  and  if  it  beinaneedfullcaufe,  then  it  fhali  be  very 
neceffary  to  know  what  figne  the  Moone  is  in,for  you  mud 
take  heed  that  fhee  be  not  in  that  figne  that  gouerneth  that 
member, wherin  you  intend  to  open  the  vein, &  alfo  to  fore¬ 
lee  that  fhe  be  in  fuch  a  figne  as  it  is  good  to  let  bloud  in. 

For  the  vfes  and  commodities  of  Blond-letting  are  a- 
gaind  thefe  difeafes  that  are  heere  expreffed. 

i  This  is  a  generall  Rule,  that  Bloud-Ietting  is  a  very 
good  remedy  for  all  difeafes  that  bee  ingendred  of  aboun- 
dance  flowing  of  eruption  of  bloud,  as  be  chiefely  the  Fe- 
uers  called  Sinochy. 

a  Alfo  the  Phrenfle,  Sqinancy,  Plurifie,  Pcripne  wmony,

parts,  wherefoeuer  the  inflamationbee  :  Blond-letting  is 
good  for  it,whether  it  be  now  prefent,or  that  there  be  any 
danger  that  the  fame  will  fhortly  ingender.

and  ftoppingsofthe  Veines  be  catifed  of  immoderate  re¬ 
pletion  of  the  humors.  -fv  ’  >-f 

Note  alio  that  Bloud-Ictting  doth  empty  and  euacuare 
fi  om  the  body  all  humors  alike, as  wel  the  good  as  thebad. 

And  therfore  it  is  chicfely  to  be  vfed,  when  there  is  too 
great  an  abundance  of  blond  in  the  body  and  other  hu- 
mors, which  doe  drainethe  Veynes,  and  that  there  is  great 
danger  and  jeopardy  in  breaking  of  borne  Veine  :  or  the 
bmfing  out  offomeiluxe  of  bloud,  orofchoaking,  and  to 
exunguifh  naturall  heat.  And  therefore  in  fuch  cafes,  you 
rauH:  iet  blond  with  all  i  peed, although  the  dcknefle  be  not 
already  prefenr. 

Forby  letting  of  blond  in  due  feafon,the  fiiperflaous  ful~ 
lies  of  the  Veines  is  brought  into  a  very  meaneeftatea- 
gaim , and  the  pames  that  came  of  the  fuines  and  ftrctching 
oi  the  veflels,  bee  ealed  :  and  the  heauines  that  was  felt  in 
the  body  is  clean e  taken  away,  and  the  body  is  lightened, 
and  made  more  quicke  and  nimble,  to  doe  all  fuch  a&ions 
as  Nature  hath  ordained  it  to  doe. 

Aho  it  caufeth  Nature  to  haue  a  larger /cope,  and  a  free 
paffage,  by  opening  and  emptying  of  the  ftraight  wayes 
and  paiTages  ofthe  Veines  and  Arteries. 

Laft  of  all,  if  it  bee  cJpnei’q  time,  it  preiienteth  diuers  and 
fundry  difeafes,  which  the  body  was  both  apt  and  ready  to 
haue  fallen  into. 

Many  more  commodities  might  here  be  rehearfecl  as 
concerning  bloud -letting,  which  is  done  when  neceffity 
requjreth,  and  as  it  ought  to  be  done  :  but  to  conclude  (o-

Here  would  I  leaue  off  to  fpeakc  of  bloud-letting,  but  that 
there  commeth  into  my  mind,the  common  opinion  of  the 
ignorant  people,  which  doe  certainely  beleeue,  that  if  any 
perfon  be  let  bloud  one  yeare,  that  he  muft  likewife  be  let 
blond  euery  yeare  agayne,  or  elfe  heeisin  ( I  cannot  tell 
how)great  danger:  which  fond  opinion  oftheirs(whencc- 
foeuer  it fprung  at  the  firft)is  no  more  like  to  be  true  .then  I 
flioald  lay,  when  a  man  hath  a  great  wound  by  chance,  in 
any  part  of  his  body,  whereby  he  lofeth  much  hloud,  and 
that  after  it  is  heated,  heemuftof  neceflity  hane  the  like 
wound  againe  the  next  yeare,  to  auoide  as  much  bloud,  or 
elfe  he  is  in  danger  of  great  ficknefle  or  of  death.  Which 
opinion,  iflmy  felfedidaffirmeittobetrue,  ('although  it 
be  mod  falfej  yet  I  might  vfe  the  like  reafon  and  authority 
to  defend  it,  that  the  common  people  doe  vie  for  theiis:for 
they  can  fay  nothing, if  they  be  asked  why  they  doe  thinke 
lo,but  that  they  haue  heard  many  fay  fo.Therefore  I  would 
wilh  that  no  man  fhould  credit  any  longer  this  fond  &  foo- 
hfli  opinio, being  moft  falfe,  vnles  he  could  fhew  good  rea¬ 
fon  for  it,  which  I  am  very  well  affined  of";  no  man  can  doe. 

Blit  now  this  I  thinke,  that  like  as  Blond-letting  is  not 
good  againft  all  difeafes^fo  a!fo  it  is  not  good  in  al  perfbns? 
but  onely  in  thofethat  will  be  content  to  vfe  afterwards  a 
moderate  and  conuenient  diet. 

Thofe  therefore  that  doe  abound  in  bloud,  and  will  be  let 
bloud  to  preferue  them  from  the  danger  of  any  difeafe, 
which  is  like  fhortly  to  enfue  and  moleft  them  :  they  muft 
for  a  long  time  after,  becontent  to  vfe  a  moderate  and  con- 
uenientdyet.For  thofe  that  be  vntemperate  and  gluttonous 
meates;  or  are  gnat  drunkards  and  wine-bibbers,  they 
doe  not  rcceiue  any  commodity  at  ail  by  Bloud-letting: 
but  oftentimes  they  catch  more  hurt  by  k,  then  they  fhould 
»aue  had  without  it,  for  in  three  or  foure  daies  fpace  after, 
agayne  they  fill  and  ftuffe  thcrnfelues  within  with  more

raw  iuice  and  humours,  (by  meanes  of  their  vnmcafurable 
diet)  then  they  had  before,  and  oftentimes  they  purchafe 
their  owne  deaths  through  convulfion. 

And  therefore  note,  that  there  is  fuch  force  and  vertue  in 
a  moderate  dyer,  to  efchtie  and  decline  difeafes,  that  with-, 
out  the  due  obferuation  of  it, Bloud-letting  is  ofnopurpofe 
at  all.  And  therefore  if  the  common  faying  of  the  people  be 
true  in  any  perlbn,  Jhat  they  mult  of  neceffity  be  let  bloud 
often  •  it  is  very  true, but  it  is  in  fuch  as  keepe  an  immode¬ 
rate  dyet  prefently  after  Bloud-letting :  and  therefore  I  doe 
aduertize  all  men  to  beware  ofexcefle  either  in  eating  or 
drinking  after  Bloud-letting. 

Note  alfo,  that  after  Bloud-letting,  none  ought  to  walke 
jrery  faft,or  to  runne,  or  to  vfe  any  vehement  exercife,  but 

•nr?  *s  kl°ud,  clu^et  and  re^  himfelfe,  vn« 
till  fuch  time  as  his  fpirits  fliall  be  well  refrefhed  and  qui¬ 
eted  againe. 

..  Note  alfo,  that  no  perfon  being  let  bloud, ought  to  fleepe 
immediately  after  bloud*letting,but  let  him  keepe  himfeife 
both  quiet  and  waking,  and  auoyding  all  contention  and 
exercife  ofbody  and  mind  :  and  about  two  houres  after  let¬ 
ting  of  bloud,  there  may  a  little  food  be  taken,  but  let  it  be 
fuch  as  will  make  good  iuice  and  nourifli  apace,  and  with¬ 
in  roure  or  hue  houres  after  Bloud-letting,  orfomewhat 
afore,  the  patient  may  be  permitted  to  fleepe,  fo  that  it  be 
prpuided  for,  'and  taken  heede  of^  that  he  doe  notturne 
himfeife  vpon  that  arme  or  fide,  where  the  veine  was  ope¬ 
ned, ^and  let  him  alfo  take  good  heed, that  he  doe  not  loofen 
the  band,  and  fo  let  the  bloud  flow  out  againe ;  and  let  him

eight  houres  after  meat. 

-  Thus  much  hand  entreated  of  as  concerning  BloudJet-

of  the  vfe  and  benefit  that  commeth  oi  Purging. 


TKc  vfe  of  Purging,  and  the  be- 

Kcfit  thereof.  '  .  P.  :  ' 

Ora  (much  as  it  is  very  r.eceffary  to  be  vnderftood  of 
all  perfOns,  that  euery  kinde  of  Purgation  hath  that 
fccret  vertue  and  property  in  it  felfe,  that  when  it  is 
receiued  into  a  mans  bod)',  andprouoked  to  exer- 
ci(e  the  vertue  that  it  hath  by  naturall  heat  labouring  to  di- 
geft  it,  then  doth  it  draw  vnto  it  all  fuch  humours,  as  the 
fame  hath  vertue  and  powertopurge. 

_  And  therefore  a  Purgation  is  an  euacuation  of  vicious  and 
corrupt  humours, which  doe  oftentimes  trouble  and  molcft 
the  body,but  not  of  all  corrupt  and  bad  humours  alike. 

For  euery  Purging  medicine  doth  draw  vnto  it  fclfc  one 
peculiar  and  proper  humour,  (that  is)  eyther  flegme  or 
chollcr,or  elfe  melancholy  or  watry  humours. 

And  therefore  thofe  perfonsr which  k now  themfelties  to 
be  perfeftly  in  healthrought  not  to  ta(ke  a  purgation,  when 
they  doe  not  abound  with  any  ill  or  corrupt  humouis; 
wherefore  in  thofe,  when  the  medicine  findeth  no  fiicn  fu- 
perfluous  humour  as  it  hath  vertue  to  draw ;  itconfumeth 
and  waftethboth  the  bloud  and  the  flefh:  and  for  that  caule 
-  whole  folks  are  not  to  be  purged  by  Purgations,  but  rather 
confounded  and  wafted  :  for  it  is  man ifeft  hereby,  that 
Purgations  be  very  dangerous  to  themthatareinperfeeft 

health,  which  thing  is  certified  alfb  of  Hipocrates  in  the  3  7,

AHo  becaufe  euerv  purging  Medicine  hath  vertue  to  draw 
one  peculiar  humour,  there  is  good  heed  and  care  to  be 
taken,  that  fuch  a  medicine  be  miniftred  as  hath  vertue  to- 
.draw  out  the  humor  abounding, and  moue  others  tbemnto, 
or  dfe  in  ftead  of  much  good  that  ofit  felfe  it  would  do  it 
it  were  conueniently  miniftred, it  may  contrariwife  doe  ex¬

bo4y.  And  according  to  the  faying  of  Hipocrates  in  the  laft>

Therefore  ought  diligent  care  and  heed  tobeerafcmun

But  alas,  the  greateft  number  of  the  common  foit  of

euery  Phyficion,  before  fiieh  time  as  he  domiaifterany 
purgation  to  the  ficke  perfons  :  as  the  quality  and  quantity 
of  the  humor,  the  ftrength  of  the  perfon  that  i$  ficke,  the 
age,the  time  of the  yeare, and  laftly  the  difeafe. 

1 .  The  quality  of  the  humor  is  greatly  to  be  confidered 
of, that  therby  he  may  perfectly  know  what  kind  of  humor 
is  to  be  euacuated  and  purged  out,  for  it  muft  be  onely  that 
which  troubleth  the  body  with  much  fuperfluity  of  die 
abundance  thereof. 

2.  That  if  great  abundance  of  Flegme  doemoleftand 
trouble  the  body,  then  he  mu  ft  of  neceffitie  minifter  a  me¬ 
dicine  which  purgeth  Fiegme:and  lo  likewife  for  all  other 
humors  whatfoeuer  abounding  in  any  part  of the  body. 

3.  Alto  hee  that  doth  undertake  the  miniftrifl|  of  any 
medicine, ought  to  bane  great  refpe<ft  to  the  ftrength  of  the 
ficke  or  difeafed  perfon :  for  if  he  be  very  weake  and  feeble, 
there  ought  no  Purgation  at  all  to  be  miniftredvnto  him, 
becaufe  all  manner  of  Purgations  doe  both  weaken  nature, 
and  diminifii  ftrength,  and  the  ftronger  the  ficke  perfon  is, 
the  more  he  is  weakned  thereby. 

4.  Let  all  men  therefore  beware  of  vehement  and  ftrong 
Purgations,  left  they  put  their  Hues  in  hazard  and  danger : 
Therefore  by  the  age  of  the  Patient,  the  Phyficion  is  put 
in  minde,  that  children  and  old  men  ought  not  to  receiue 
any  Purgation,  except  maruelious  great  necefiity  doe  re¬ 
quired. 

5  The  time  of the  yeare  is  not  to  be  negle<fted ;  for  there 
be  Lome  ti  mes  of  the  yeare,  wherein  Purgations  ought  not 
to  be  miniftred,  as  in  Summer,  and  efpecially  during  the 
time  of  the  Dog-daies,as  they  are  moft  commonly  called, 
and  alfo  during  all  the  time  that  the  Sun  is  in  Leo,  for  then 
is  nature  burnt  vp  and  made  fb  weake  withal  1,  that  (Lee  is 
not  able  to  fuffer  tlfe  force  and  violence  of  a  Purgation  :  but 
the  Spring  time  is  the  moft  meeteft  and  piinciballeft  time 
in  the  yeare  for  the  taking  of  purgations,  becaule  it  is  then 

temperate.  Laft  ofall,  the  Phyficion  ought  diligently  to  be-

hold  and  contemplate  the  difeafe,  that  he  knowing  cer- 
tainely  what  kinde  ofdifeafe  it  is,  he  may  the  better  finde ' 
out  of  what  humor  it  is  caufed.  As  for  example  : 

If  the  Phylicion  doeperceiue  the  difealeto  be  a  Tercian 
Feuer,  llraight-way  he  knoweth,  that  is  caufed  of  great  a- 
bundance  of  Choller,  and  therefore  hee  mull  ofnecellity 
minifter  a  meet  medicine  to  purge  Choller  withall:  and  £o 
likewifein  all  other  difeafes. 

Note  like  wile,  that  if  there  be  none  of  the  impediments 
abouenamed,a  Purgation  is  good  to  be^iniftred  to  all  fiich 
as  haue  abundance  of  euil  iuyee  or  corrupt  humors  in  the 
body ;  for  it  draweth  outall  the  bad  humors  that  doe  mo- 
left  the  body,  and  likewife  thereby  doth  reftore  it  to  his 
owne  former  eftate  againe. 

But  if  a  Purgation  bee  miniftred  either  to  one  that  nee- 
deth  it  not,  or  at  an  inconuenient  time  $  or  that  it  be  fuch  a 
Medicine,  as  draweth  wot  out  the  humors  which  then  a- 
bound ;  or  if  the  medicine  bee  vehement  and  very  ftrong 
it  wil  Purely  put  the  Patient  in  great  danger  of  his  life.  * 
Thefe  things  therefore  ought  to  bee  well  taken  heed  of 

/  all  men,  left  they  catch  great  hurt,  when  they  hope  to 
receiue  moft  profit. 

dilcreetly  mi&iftred  to  him  that 
hath  need  of  it  in  due  time,  and  by  an  apt  and  meete  medi¬ 
cine,  which  is  ofthat  force  and  ability  to  draw  outthea* 
bounding  humours  in  fufheient  quantity  *  then  doth  the 
medicine  purchafe  moft  lingular  great  commodities  vnto 
the  body:  for  it  euacuateth  and  emptieth  outall  the  chiefeil  ' 
caufes  of  the  difeafes  and  fickneffes,either  prefent  or  elfe  to 
come,  being  ingendred  of  any  fnperfliious  or  corrupt  hu-

Note  alfo;Before  a  Purgat  ionbe  miniftred,there  ought  a 
medicine  to  be  taken,  which  fhould  prepare  the  body,  and 
make  it  apt  to  purge, and  therfore  it  is  called  a  preparatiue.

It  is  giuen  for  two  caules,  either  to  diuide,  extenuate,  and 
make  them  grade  and  clam  mi  e  humors,  that  they  may  be 
ready  to  flow  out, when  the  medicine  drawes  them, or  die 
it  is  giuen  to  open  and  vnftop  the  cunduits  and  vcftels  of 
the  body,  by  which  the  Purgation  moft  draw  the  fiiperfLi- 
pus  humors  to  it. 

And  this  is  that  which  Hipocrates  doth  counfaile  in  the 
X .  lAphonjme  of  his  2.  booke>  where  he  faith,  Corpora  ckm

any  man  wii  purge  the  body,hee  muff  make  it  flowing ,  by 
opening  and  vn-opening  of  the  vellels. 

The  mod  meet  eft  time  of  all  to  receiue  a  Purgation, is  in 
the  morning,  for  then  are  all  the  digs  ftions  perfectly  lini- 
{hed,and  the  ftomacke  is  without  meat.T-here  is  alfo  great

{iich  time  as  any  Purgation  be  miniftred,  for  fome  fignes 
are.  very  good  for  it,  and  other  fome  are  eui il.  Therefore  I 
would  wiih  ali  fuchas  doe  take  vpon  them  the  miniftring 
of  any  purgation,  to  Kane  great  regard  before  they  doe  mi- 
nifter  it  to  the  ficke  perfon,the  time,and  the  place  grieued, 
and  alfb  to  marke  well  all  fuch  things  as  are  before  rehear- 
fed,  left  that  they  doe  more  hurt  thereby  in  one  day  to  that 
ficke  perfon,then  they  are  able  to  doe  him  good  in  a  whole 
yeare,  and  yet  they  may  doe  it  of  meere  fimplicity,  not 
Knowing  themfeiues  what  they  haue  done  ,  neither  are 
they  able  to  cure  the  fame  wound  which  they  themfeiues 
haue  made. 

A  Purgation  muft  bee  taken  hot,  forfo  it  offendeth  the 
ftomacke  leaft,  and  it  will  worke  the  fooner  and  better. 

Alfo  thofe  that  are  apt  to  vomit, and  are  not  abl e  to  endure

fome  odoriferous  wine, or  elfe  to  chew  fome  fweet  &  plea- 
fant  thing  to  take  away  the  bitter  tafte  or  imell  of  the  Me¬ 
dicine,  and  fo  by  this  means  vomitting  may  be  efchewed. 

Note  alio  that  for  the  (pace  of  one  houre  after,  that  any 
Purgation  is  miniftred  to  any  fick  perfon,  let  the  patient  fit 
ilill  and  be  quiet  sand  (in  any  cafe)  let  him  abftaine  from 
fleepe  foure  or  fiue  houres  after,  whereby  the  ftrength  of 
the  medicine  may  the  better  pafle  intoal  parts  of  his  body; 
but  if  the  Purgation  doe  worke  but  (lowly,  then  let  him 
walke  vp  and  cfowne  for  a  good  fpace  after,  if  hee  can,and 
when  it  woiketh  perfectly,  then  let  there  be  great  care  of 
fieepe  taken,  fas  aforefaid)  for  thereby  the  Operation  of 
the  Medicine  would  be  fbone  flopped,  and  the  Patient 
brought  into  great  danger. 

Like  wife,  in  the  time  of  purging,  immoderate  heate  and 
cold  are  to  be  efchewed :  and  therefore  a  great  fire  is  necefr 
fary,  infomuch  as  the  cold  and  open  ay  re  are  both  hurtfull  s 
for  the  body  muff  be  kept  in  a  temperate  heate. 

Moreouer,  after  that  the  Purgation  hath  done  working, 
the  patient  muftbee  nourifhed  with  a  meane  quantity  of 
warme  broth,  that  will  breede  good  iuyee ,  and  be  eafily 
digefted  :  and  afterwards  by  little  and  little,  returne  to  his 
accuftomed  dyetagaine. 

Thus  haue  I  (as  briefely  as  I  could)  heere  exprefled  and 
declared  the  commodities  and  difeommodities  that  doe 
arife  and  grow,  as  well  by  the  miniftring  of fuch  meet  me¬ 
dicines  as  are  neceffary  to  be  vfed,both  for  therecouery  and 
preferuation  of  mans  bodily  health  ;  asalfoforthecom- 
moditie  and  difeommodity  that  enfueth  ofBloud-letting 
and  Purging,  (  beeing  all  well  and  rightly  miniftred  and 
vfed)  and  contrariwife  of  the  great  danger  and  hurt  that 
doth  come  thereof,  if  at  any  time  they  bee  mifiufed  : 
and  therefore  I  would  wifh  ail  men  (as  they  doe  tender 
both  their  health  andliues,)  to  beware  of thofe  ignorant 
and  vn-skilfull  perfons,who(moft  common!y)vfe  to  open

alio  vfe  but  one  kindt  of  Purgation  againft  all  humors, not 
regarding, nor confidering  with  thenalelues  any  thing  at  al, 
either  of  the  ftrength  or  age  of  the  Patient,  the  time  of  the 
yeare,  or  the  firft  originall  cauleof  thecommingof  the 
Difeafe,  whatfoeuer  Difeafe  it  be,  or  of  any  other  the 
circumftances  (inthis  treatife)  heretofore  fpoken  of :  but 
let  them  that  are  grieued  with  any  manner  of  Difeafe,  al- 
waies  feek  for  the  counfel  and  helpe  of  fuch  as  are  knowne 
to  be  both  learned  and  skiifull  in  Phifick  and  Chirurgery  : 
and  are  alio  circumfped(as  it  is  mod  needfull  they  fhould 
be,)  in  all  their  proceedings  vnto  arte  :  And  who  for  the 
mod  part  will  duely  and  righteoufly  confider,  before  they 
minifter  any  medicine  to  the  ficke  perfon,  what  need  he 
hath,  and  what  is  mod  meete  to  be  minidred  vnto  him  for 
his  difeafe.  And  alio  let  the  Phyficion  note,  that  in  the  mi- 
nidring  of  all  Potions,  Eleduaries  and  Pills, there  ought 
greater  obferuations  to  be  had,  then  there  ought  to  bee  in 
Gliders  or  Suppofitories/oralmuch  as  thofe  doe  enter  no 
further  then  into  the  Gutte  where  the  ordure  lieth,  and  by 
that  place  onely  bringeth  forth  the  matter  which  caufeth 
the  difeafe:but  the  other  entring  into  that  way  which  both 
meates  and  drink  es  doe  come  into  the  domacke,  and  there 
is  boyled  and  fentinto  the  places  of  digeftion,  and  after¬ 
wards  is  mixt  with  theiuyce,  whereof  the  fubdance  of 
the  body  is  made,  and  expelling  the  aduerfary  humors: 
yet  fome  part  thereof  remay  neth  in  the  Body.  Wherefore 
People  ought  to  take  heede  and  be  careful  what  Medicines 
they  doe  receiue,  that  in  them  there  be  no  venenofity,  ma¬ 
lice  or  corruption  :  left  for  the  expelling  of  a  (iiperfluous 
humour, which  perhaps  fome  good  diet,  or  fome  good  and 
wholfome  broth  made  of  good  hearbs,  or  that  the  laid 
euacuation  with  foppofitory  or  glifter  might  bring  forth  at 
leafure :  rather  then  by  defiring  of  too  hafty  remedy  they 
recciue  in  Medicine, at  which  dial  ingender  any  venomous 
hum°nr  and  vn-evitable  deftrncdion  into  all  the  whole  bo¬ 
dy  :  And  therefore  it  is  a  moft  happie  thing  for  thofe  that 


in  Phyncke  and  Chirurgery. 

are  fickeand  difeafc  d,  that  can  finde  out  a  skilfull,  difcrect 
and  learned  Phyflcion,and  cipeciady  fuch  a  one, as  both  his 
Medicines  and  Drugs  are  ai way es  perfeft  and  good,  and 
not  any  maner  of  way  corrupted. 

Moreouer,  it  is  chiefelyto  bee  regarded  in  all  forts  of 
people,  that  all  bodies  that  are  hot  and  moyft5  may  eafily 
foftaine  Purgation  by  ftoole. 

All  fuch  perfons  as  be  leane  and  thin,  hailing  their  ftfenv 
bers  tender, may  take  great  harme  by  purging. 

Thofe  that  are  Chollericke,  and  thofe  that  vfe  to  eat  lit¬ 
tle;  Purging  is  very-ill  for  them. 

Alfo  for  young  children  and  aged  perfons,  it  is  very  dan¬ 
gerous  for  them  to  foofen  their  bodies  more  then  great  ne* 
ceflity  requireth. 

Likewife  for  thofe  that  are  not  accuftomed  to  purge,  it 
is  very  noyfome  and  hurtfull  vnto  them :  but  for  thofe  that 
line  in  good  order  of  dyer,  they  need  neither  Purgation  nor 
vomit. 

Note  alfo,  that  after  any  purgation  hath  wrought  to  full 
perfection,  then  thirftinefle  and  found  fleepingbe  good 
hgnes  and  tokens  that  the  body  isfoftkiently  purged. 

Laftly,  by  daily  taking  of  Medicines,  and  by  daily  pur¬ 
ging,  nature  is  greatly  corrupted. 

When  you  intend  to  purge  the  body,firfl  before  to  make 
the  matter  flowing  and  foluble. 

A  Medicine  to  purge, ought  not  to  be  mingled  with  any 
manner  of  meat :  but  to  bee  taken  fourehoures  at  the  leaft 
before  meaIes,or  three  houres  after  meales,  except  certaine 
cafe  pills  made  of  purpofe  to  clenfe  and  comfort  tBefto- 
mack,  which  of  right  ought  to  be  taken  at  the  beginning 
off  upper  or  after  (upper, or  a  little  before  that  onegoeth  to 
bed,  but  let  the  patient  be  fore  to  make  but  eythera  light 
(upper,  or  elfe  none  at  all.  And  after  a  purgation  taken,  the 
patient  o.,ght  to  take  good  reft,  and  not  walke  ouermuch 
vntill  the  Medicine  hath  wrought,  nor  eat  ordrinkeany 
thing  at  all  in  the  meane  (pa.ee.

called  the  Pox :  But  mide  intends  not  to

which  are  vfiall  amon^ft  young  people : )  and  the  French

(which  now  rerftaineth  too  common  in  this  age)  which 
by  meanes  thereof  many  people  are  disfigured  in  the  face,
