THe Grecians do call this disease Palmos the Latinists Palpitatio Tremor or Saltus Cordis which is a trembling or panting of the Hart contrarie to the common custome It is caused euen as we haue taught in the beginning of this Chapter of the abundant moysture which is in the closet of the Hart. With these there may be yet moe other inward causes as the paine of the stomack vexation offence of the Hart of the Liuer the Lights the Milt or Mother Also of winde ill damps corrupted blood such like The outward causes are commonly great heate sodaine and great cold great emptines great sorrowe fright great feare and other motions of the minde Further of venime taken biting of venimous beasts pestilent Agues corrupted ayre stinking dwellings like as in prison Mines or other such like which are vnder the earth of belly wormes and all other things that vexe the Hart the which are well to be vnderstood of the patient himselfe The inward signes are these If the panting of the hart procéede of wormes then is the beating of the hart bigger before meate then after but if the same come of a bad stomacke then may it easily be marked through paine in the same place if the same be wroong Also by the wambling and vomiting If it come by fulnes of the same then is the disease most grieuous after meate but if through emptines then it is most sore before meate If it procéede of fright sorrow and such like you must vnderstand and learne that by the patient If it come of winds then it is very suddenly vpon one and soone gone away againe If it be prouoked of heate then is the pulse swift and the breath is strong and disordred If it procéede of bloud then is the vrin grosse and the pulse beateth spéedily and strong his face will be red and about the hart is alwayes great heate the patient is alwayes light harted the which is much augmented through meates that make and ingender much bloud Or if this disease be caused of Cholera then is his vrin yellow and thin the pulse beateth continually swiftly with great thirst possibly through daily meate whereby the Cholera is increased or of former paines taken If this be caused of Phlegma that appeareth by the white and thick vrin of small slow and disordred pulse the patient is sléepie faint-harted This is also woont to be caused of meates that procure Phlegma Likewise in winter time when this panting of the hart is caused of Melancholy then is the sick bodie fearefull the bodie decreaseth and falleth away and that most of all in Haruest with many moe melancholick signes that are elsewhere described This panting of the hart doth often haunt both yong and aged people whereby the occasion is hardly to be adiudged and in all such it is found that the letting of bloud hath not only eased them well but also throughly holpen them and chiefely if therewith they haue obserued a good order in eating and drinking and vse all such medicines as haue abated the bloud and other humors howbeit the same hapneth very seldome that aged people be cured thereof for that they most of all chaunce to dye of a hote Ague or of swouning and that commonly betweene fortie and fiftie yéeres Thus much for the beating or trembling of the hart Of the panting of the Hart through heate §. 4. IF by the panting of the hart there be discerned a swift pulse and an Ague then is it a signe that it commeth of bloud or Cholera the which is not without danger for it often hapneth that then they do fall into a swoune thereby immediatly remaine dead Now for to remedie this must the sick persons face hands féete and pulse veines be forthwith sprinckled and rubbed with these compounded waters take Rose water foure ounces Mints water two ounces Roses burnt Iuorie red white Saunders of each two scruples Muscus and Ambra of each two graines Vineger two ounces Malmesey two scruples mixe them all together and when you will vse thereof then stirre it well about Secondly take pleasant Wine and water of Buglosse of each one ounce Specierum Diamoschu dulci one scruple temper it and giue it to the patient warme to drinke Thirdly he shall cōtinually smell to odoriferous bags that shall hereafter be described Afterward as soone as is possible ought the Liuer veine be opened in the right arme and foure or fiue ounces of bloud be letten out but not before that the sick person hath gone to stoole The next day following he shall take this potion take sirupe of Citron pils one ounce small beaten Rubarb and prepared Agarick of each two scruples sirupe of Roses halfe an ounce Ginger and Spica of each sixe graines Sal Gemmae two graines temper them all together with thrée ounces of the water of Burrage and so drinke it luke warme and fast thereupon foure howres You may also cause him to be purged with Cassia Tamarines yellow Mirobalanes Manna and Rubarb putting to either of them some Agarick As for example you may take this Purgation following Take water of Buglosse one ounce and a halfe Cicorie water two ounces Rubarb one dragme and a halfe prepared Agarick one dragme the iuice of Roses halfe a dragme Spica one scruple Ginger fiue graines let this stéepe 24. howres in a warme place and making it hote in the morning you must straine it through a cloth and so drinke it warme and then fast foure howres after This being done he must eight dayes one after another take euery morning this drinke following Take sirup of Apples sirup of Citron pils and Oxysacchara of each halfe an ounce water of Balme and of Buglosse of each one ounce Cicorie water one ounce and a halfe temper them all together to a potion And it were not ill that he take euery fourth day one of these pils following Take Aloe one quarter of an ounce Rubarb one dragme Agatick foure scruples red and white Behen Saffron Mace and Indy Salt of each three graines make pils thereof with the iuice of Buglosse sixe to a dragme If there be greater heate approching then is it aduised that at the first euery day be taken halfe a dragme of Trociscos de Camphora with sirupe of Pomgranats dissolued and so continue foure dayes together And if this will not help then must the patient drinke new Buttermilke with all these purgations and letting blood It is also highly commended to carie a sober life in eating and drinking yet to take héede that the patient remaine by his strength We will

OF the naturall causes of the Plague there are as many opinions amongst the Philosophers as there are causes that procure it as namely of venemous vapors of the earth that are infected by some earthquakes or if a countrey be hot moyst full of stenches full of lakes or still standing waters and cloyed with stench of dead bodies as it oftentimes befalleth after great wars and slaughters but especially is the aire infected as is abouesaid through sinne whereby it may diuersly be venomed Also when the aire is warme and moist and that it doth raine much in time of heate with a Southerly wind whereof we will not at this present make any further discourse but they that desire to haue any ampler description hereof may reade ouer the Philosophers and other learned Phisitions But howsoeuer this is the most certaine cause of this sicknesse that God the Lord for our manifold sinnes and wickednesse to wit idolatrie incredulitie and ingratitude hath vsed this Plague and many afflictions moe as hunger warre and shedding of blood to punish the foresaid sinnes and transgressions These are his rods and scourges euen the ministers of his wrath to chastice the wicked world as through his Prophets he hath foresaid and threatned the world and as both holy Scriptures and heathen writers testifie that it hath afterward ensued accordingly Signes of the Plague to come §. 2. FIrst it is a certaine signe that the aire is infected and that a plague is to be expected if in the end of the sommer there appeare Comets or any other impressions which men cal flakes of fire starres that fall or shoote and such like in the element which proceede of vapors that are drawne out of the earth into the aire and there are kindled whereby both men and cattell are infected Secondly when any vnaccustomed heape of beasts are séene as of Frogs Toades Grashoppers Mice and Wormes which oftentimes

In like sort also of a foggie aire surfetting by meate or drink the feeding of ouermuch slimie meates the which do obstruct not only be kidneyes but also all other inward parts as hath bene said and hinder them that they cannot haue their right operation the which may euidently be seene in young children which are most subiect to this disease for that they eate much milke whereby the stone and grauell is most of all ingendred of which the grossest sinketh into the bladder with the vrine where the same lieth and drieth and is confirmed to the hardnesse of a stone like as we for example cannot otherwise liken this foresaid grosse matter of the stone then with the matter of a tile stone which is first a weake tough slimie earth afterwards dried and at last burnt and baked in an ouen to a hard stone The stone of the bladder differeth also much from the stone of the kidneyes for it is whither harder and greater then the stone of the kidneyes This foresaid stone or grauell is knowne by these signes Lieth he in the Bladder then must the patient often rub his priuities with his hand his member is alwayes erected Also in yong children they féele most paine about their priuities the vrine passeth from him with labour and very great vaine and otherwhiles the Arsegut thereby descendeth But if it be the stone of the kidneyes then do they feele great paine in the raines of the backe as it were the Colicke or paine of the guts because that the paine draweth downewards As sóone as they stirre themselues then doth the paine increase they are much inclined to vomiting and casting their body is bound their vrine is raw and waterish they are alwayes prouoked to pisse neuertheles they cannot be rid of it without very great paine therefore can this growing and confirmation of the stone in these parts of the kidneyes not be without great paine and griefe It is also euidently and sufficiently wel knowne to each mans eyes where the paine remaineth in one place that the vrine doth auoid withe grauell sand tough slime yea sometimes mixt with blood and other things and the kidneyes be full of heate Afterwards this griefe and paine stretched euen to the conduits of the vrine and principally in fat folks and before euen to the priuities and then especially when they would make water But because there be many decieued in the knowledge of the stone and adiudge otherwhiles the Colicke for the Stone and so come to vse contrary medicines therefore it is not without great néed that we make a declaration of both their differences The first is this that the paine of the Kidneyes is not so sharpe as the paine of the Colicke Secondly the paine of the Colick doth appeare beneath in the right side and stretched her from thence vpwards towards the left side Contrariwise the paine of the kidneyes doth begin from aboue and so descendeth softly downewards euen vnto the place where it doth settle it self and stretched her a little more towards the back Thirdly the paine of the kidneyes is much more forcible when he is fasting and the paine of the Colicke is by fasting and emptinesse eased Fourthly the Colicke commeth vpon a sudden and to the contrary the paine of the kidneyes commeth in a longer time Fiftly the Colicke will be taken and driuen away when the wind and the ordure may haue their expulsion or auoidance by Clisters but the paine of the grauell not Sixtly all Saxifrages and all other things that breake the stone are good for the kidneyes and not for the Colicke Lastly there is found in the vrine grauell and sand and not in the Colicke or paine of the guts By all these foresaid declarations one may easily adiudge whether this diseases be in the kidneyes or in the bowels For to hinder and restraine the ingendring and growing of the grauell and stone §. 1.

Hectica In fine they are both such kind of Agues that there is smal help of man to be had against them This properly is that which the Phisitions cal Senectam that is the old age to wit a consuming of the whole body The causes of this is that the heate and the drouth get the mastery which might be caused when one is fasting and hath a cold stomacke In like maner also when one is ouerheated and straightway drinketh cold water vpon it Also the hot aire and the heate of the time may well prouoke and raise that which wasteth drieth vp and oftentimes expelleth the naturall heate whereby the body is sustained whereof the cold and drouth do follow Moreouer this sicknesse may be caused of the debilitie of naturall heate which cannot nourish the whole body and in like maner of cold vapors that ascend towards the heart and ouer-coole the same Likewise of all cold causes that lie hidden in the body as may be séene by very old folkes These are signes of this malady that it is without any Ague but with a slow pulse with an extenuation of the whole body without heate and in feeling may a generall cold be perceiued the vrine is thin white and waterish In fine there are no other
