Complexion And as one that wel knew himselfe not to bee borne only for himselfe hath franckly frendly and learnedly bequeathed the Talent of his knowledge to a publique and vniuersall commoditye In

deliuered out in English as he hath done and left it in the Latine But surelye I haue done my beste trusting that others in recompence of my trauail wil not vpō a Splene requite me with their worste

and cheerish it For if it be sincere and pure not mingled wyth anye straunge or forrayne quality it causeth tranquillity of minde frameth maners in good order fashiō and finally qualifyeth and calmeth all affections The minde of man to honestie it frames And vvith the loue of vertuous life enflames But if it be any whitte infected or wyth anye vyce soyled then is the quietnes of the minde disturbed and stirred to manye inconuenient enormities For as great blustering wynds vppon the Sea and Lande cause greeuous terrible and raginge tempestes and much other harme to ensue So likewyse if the Spirites be disquieted oute of frame they ingender and procure diuers sortes of affections in the minde carye the same mauger all reason like a shippe wythout guide and Rother vppon the rockes of sondry inconueniences Now the thinges wherewyth our inwarde Spirites are moste dulled quenched and damnifyed are these fulsome Ayre ouermuich carnal copulation vnseasonable watching excessiue heate chafing and labour longe fasting heauines of the minde and sadnesse Accordinge to that saying of the wyse man A mery hart maketh a lustie age but a sorovvfull Spirit dryeth vp the bones Heauinesse bringeth olde age before the times and carefulnes vveareth avvaye a mans dayes But quiet and seasonable sleepe good pure wel relished wyne meery company moderate exercise sweete sinelles and fragraunt sauours refreshe the Spirits quicken and reuiue them yea being dulled and greatly impayred Which is euident to be seene in such as falling into traūces and lying for a time as dead yet by the smell of sweete sauours are broughte againe and recouered into theyr former state For seinge that the Spirite is a certayne vapour effluence or expyratiō proceding out of the humours it standeth vs vppon to vse the moste exquiste diet that may be to th end that the meates and nourishmēts being laboured into good holesome iuyce may make the Spirits pure syncere and perfect And thus sweete ayre pleasaūt sentes deuoyd of grosse and fustie vapours strykinge vp into the brayne do marueylously comfort and clarifye the instruments of the Senses and enable them to do perfourme al theyr proper actions And although the Heart in a mā be as the Wel spring or fountaine from whom the Spirits are deriued because the Arteryes come from it euen as synewes from the Brayne and veynes from the Lyuer yet notwithstanding accordinge to the diuersitye and nature of the place they are called by other names and haue other powers appropriate vnto them Of these and al other faculties reigning in man the principall and oryginall beginning is at the very principles and beginninge of generation to witte generatiue seede and femynine bloude which be afterwarde conserued and maynteyned by nourishmentes euen as the flame is wyth oyle and out of these the Spirits proceede For the better vnderstāding of all which things I will particularly set downe the procreation of the Spirits wyth theyr nature power differēce and effectes beginninge first at the powers and faculties natural For by theyr office is it brought to passe that the meate we eate is concocted turned into the nourishmēt of the body Also ther be foure vertues whereby all lyuing Creatures wyth meate receyued are nourisshed encreased The first attractiue the secōd retentiue the third digestiue and the fourth expulsiue To wich vertues or powers appendant and belonging to all the parts of the body the first chiefe originall of the Spirites oughte to be referred For first assoone as the meate is mynced chawed wyth the teeth it descēdeth into the stomack beinge thither attracted then digested and made substantiall and turned to the proper nourishmēt and encrease of the member And such part or porcion thereof as serueth not to this vse it refuseth and reiecteth Here therefore the Spirite hath his first beginning And if nature be good stronge in this office of digestion it happeneth thereby that the Spirites be made pure cleare and syncere but if concoction bee hindred or any other distemperatnes happen thē is the meate altered and chaunged into vaporous belchinge stinking fumes and fulsome breathing which ascending vp out of the stomack disturbe and hurt the brayne and minde insomuche y such persons are easely quicklye prouoked to brawlinge chiding strife and dissention For when the Humours be not sufficiently and ynough concoted and attenuate vnpure Spirites proceede out of them enforcing a manifest alteration of the state aswell of the body as of the minde And therefore in anye wyse cruditie is to be auoyded because it maketh ill humours troubled Spirits aswell of meates of good iuyce as of those y are bad albeit the diseases engendred by want of concoction of meates hurtfull bee worse and of more daunger For they cause loathsome smelles and fulsome belchings and make the body to breake oute illfauourably in euerye place wyth scabbes botches blaynes and mangmesse For when there is aboundance of humours in the body it cānot be chosē but Agues must nedes bee engendred of that continuall obstruction and putrefaction and stoare of diseases muste needes spring oute thereof vnlesse those excrementes by continual labour and conuenient exercise be purged and the humours reduced into good bloud For then a sweete pleasaūt sente proceding therout comforteth the head and tempereth and connenientlye moysteneth the brayne Otherwyse if concoction be troubled there do strike vp into the head grosse fumie vapours such as by exāple we see greene woode to make that is smered and couered ouer wyth pitch and talowe And hereupon it happeneth that the minde sometime conceyueth straunge and absurde imaginations yea sometimes falleth into dotage rauing madnesse phrensie melancholy furie or some other distemperaunce But if the Stomacke do his parte and office throughly if concoction be not altogether hindered and that the passages aboute the Lyuer and the other partes of the body do giue free passge to the humours then the vaspours ascēding vp into the head are nothing so hurtfull neyther do they greatlye disturbe and trouble the inward minde and yet is not a man altogether cleare and free from affections but they be such I saye as hee hath in his owne power easely to qualifye stay and inhibite Naturall Spirite therefore beinge made of the purest alimente in the Lyuer is the beginninge of the residue For by it is the vitall spirite and the animall also nourished insomuch that the power or facultie animall vseth the spirit natural as an instrument to these great affections and motions whereunto retecting and litle regarding right reason we are many times prouoked For euen as in a ciuill tumulte and sedicious vprore among the common people the Magistrate hath much ado to appease and mollifye the wilfull peoples rage and headinesse so likewise reason is not able easely to subdue the lewd affections and vnbrydled motions that grow by immoderate gurmandyze surphet and dronkennesse
For who is hee that being throughly whittled in drinck doth not beastly rushe into venerous luste and filthy desires For when the body is bumbasted wyth drincke and bellycheere the priuities and secrete partes do swel and haue a marueylous desire to carnal coiture Hereof it commeth that suche persons are delighted wyth vnchaste Rhythmes and songes of rybaldry odious to honest eares and pernicious to the mind vndecent hopping and dauncing vnseemely clipping and kissing and much other filthy behauiour By this meanes that mynsing mynion throughe her fyne and lasciuious daunfynge caused the heade of holy Iohn Baptiste the forerunner of Christe to be chopped of for the kingee mynde was so enchaunted wyth her filthy and pernicious loue that cleane abādoning all reason and right iudgemente he graunted to her the head of him whose holsome admonitions and counsell hee was wonte before pacientlye to heare and well to like of Which Euangelical example is a warning to all Noble men and as many as haue the gouernmente of common weales that they cruelly rage not agaynste the innocente neyther tormente and put to death such as painefully and syncerely preach the truth but rather by all meanes to wythstande and roote oute such as be fauourers of factions enter into any practises contrary to righte and conscience onely to disturbe the publique tranquillity and to preiudice theyr Country The workemanship and frame of mans body consisteth of manye partes and therein as in the state of a Common wealth be conteyned many orders and sondry offices In the Common wealth there be the poore Comminaltie lowest in degree in which nōber are reckned drudges Porters Saylers Coblers Tinkers Carters Tipplers handy Artyficers filthy Bauds Butchers Cookes Botchers and such lyke next in degree to them are Marchants and Trafiquers amonge whom some by crafte and subtiltie enueigle and deceyue others of meaner calling and ability albeit there be also of them which practise theyr trade honestly and commendablye not by collusion and fraudulēt dealing but by godly and necessary meanes After them are the high Magistrates and Peeres of the Realme who by due admynistration of the Lawes and politicall ordinaunces keepe the rude multitude in due order of obedience and see publique peace and trāquillity maynteyned Last of all are they whose office beinge of higher authority do instructe and trayne vp the residue in the true knowledge of Christian religion and to plant in them an vndoubted fayth of theyr saluation at God the Fathers hande throughe his sonne Christe The like order comelynesse and agreemente is in the body of man wherein euery part doth properly orderly execute his peculiar office And hereuppon S. Paule by example of the harmonye and agreement of mans body and all the parts therof taketh occasion to perswade and exhort euery man to do his office and duty and carefullye to labour in his vocation For all the members of the body be so lyncked and knitte together and such participacion and cōsent is betweene them that if one of the smallest toyntes or the little toe be hurt or payned the whole body is distempered and oute of quiet And thus as Chrysostome sayth if the foote or one of the fingers endes bee pricked wyth a thorne or other sharpe thing al the other mēbers are ioyntly greeued aswel as they in so much that the head which is the honourablest parte of all other stoupeth to beholde it the eyes looke downe the hands offer theyr diligent seruice to pull out the pricke and to binde vp the wounde So lykewyse there is no part of the body which in such case desyreth not to help his afflicted fellow member Aptly therefore and very properly as Liuius witnesseth did Menenius the Oratour for example vse this persuasion at what time the commō people in a ciuill broyle rebelliously disobeyed stubbernelye maligned the Senatours and Nobility likening this theyr iarring and discorde to the sedicious contencion and falling out of the members of mans body amonge themselues By which witty deuysed fable he perswaded thē to forsake theyr mad enterpryses and to returne euery man in peace home to his owne house For as in the bodye so lykewyse in a common wealth mutuall sedition and ciuill variaunce tendeth to the spoyle and ouerthrowe of the whole but contrarywyse Concorde keepeth and vpholdeth all things preserueth aswel the Common wealth as the body of man in perfecte staye and order Howe frendlye they all do agree together and how of so many partes euery member doth perfourme his office and duty euery man in himself by experience seeth For there is no part nor mēber thereof be it neuer so small but it caryeth with it not onely a comly shape and proporcion but also otherwyse serueth for some necessary vse and purpose of the whole body and euery part thereof And first to begin from the lowest to the highest The Foundement Entrailes Stomacke procure the sustenaunce and healthe to the chiefe members by whose helpe mynisterie the meate being throughly digested is proportionably distributed by the veynes vnto euery seuerall part of the whole body But if the Entrayles appointed for the concoction of nourishmente bee weake and feeble or if any other impedimente or fault be in them whereby the meate concocted cānot haue due recourse and passage to nourish the body thē doth al go to wrack and turne into corruption mynistringe matter and occasion to Agues and all other kinde of diseases Which by certayne tokens maye partly bee knowen and felt aforehand that a man in such case commonly loatheth his meate hath a puling stomacke and is enclyned to gaping vomite stretching stiffenes in his body And because the Spirits exhaled by humours do participate with other qualityes therby distēper the brayne it commonly happeneth that such persons become thereby wayward testye and verye easely caryed into sondrye other affections of the mynde For natural Spirite being caused in the Lyuer cannot be made pure neyther attenuated into ayrie substaūce vnlesse that viscousnesse be clearely purged free from all affection But vitall spirite hath his originall procreation and beginninge of the naturall which is spread and diffused from the hearte by Arteryes into all the bodye frameth in mā diuers maners accordinge to that grossenes or subtilitie which it receyueth partly of the nourishmente and partly of the condition of the Ayre and state of the Regiō So they that dwell Northward and in cold regions by reason of grosse bloud and thicke Spyrites are seene to be bolde and full of venturous courage rude vnmanerlye terrible cruell fierce and such as wyth very threatening countenaunce and manacinge wordes make others to stande in feare of them As concerning any daungerous exploite they are not a whitte afrayde to hazarde theyr bodyes in the aduenture of anye perillous extremitie Which courage and disposition of nature is not to be founde amonge the people of Asia for

repugnaunt and greatly squaring from reason there is no man but he hath eyther in himselfe by experience tryed or by obseruation in others sufficiently noted For what man in this so great imbecillity and frowardnes of nature is not wyth some of these tempted and assayled And althoughe some bee better able then other some eyther to withstande or to qualefie and subdue his affections yet is there no maÌ„ so perfect that is not to some of them thrall and subiecte How violent and vnrulye these affections be in some which yeld their natures whollye to the impatencie thereof and how greatly they disturbe and bring out of frame both the mynde and body by manyfest examples is daily seene For many haue procured to themselues present death destruction throughe rage anger shame and immoderate ioy by reason that the heart being lefte destitute of bloud and vitall Spirite fainteth shrynketh and is dissolued Which felfe same thing albeit by an other and diuers reasoÌ„ ofteÌ„times happeneth also in feare sorrow and sodaine frightes at which times the heart is oppressed wyth too much abundaunce of bloude and the vitall Spirite choakâ—d and stopped Angre which is a passion so lyke to fury and madnesse as nothing in the world more what force it hath and how much it altereth the state outward shewe of the body appeareth chiefly by countenaunce colour grymme visage cruell and fierye eyes puffinge wrynkled nosethrilles byting lyppes enraged mouth trembling shakinge lymmes vnsteadye gate stammerynge and fearefull voyce This affection or rather perturbation of the mynd when it once reiecteth the rule of reason and groweth into disordered outrage is offensiue and troublous to others but chieflye and specially the party himselfe therew t affected throweth himself into perill of death or at least into diseases very dauÌ„gerous The mynd therfore must be reyned by reason and curbed by temperaunce that it yeld not to affections
when they be not so in deede by reason that theyr bellyes be swelled and inflated wyth wynde rather then wyth Seede Melancholye therefore and Drunkennesse are in coÌ„dition alike For Drunkards are ledde with many affections and phanstes gybing and gesturing as though they were Stage Players For as Horace very aptly wryteth VVhat thing dares not a droÌ„ken nolle adueÌ„ture All secretes of the heart it doth vnfold It vvarranteth our hopes as by Indenture A man vnarmde to fight it maketh holde From pensiue cares and troubles manyfold It ryds the minde it Arts doth teach vvith grace VVhoÌ„

ruful state vvheÌ„ vvyne he haue met Thinges no lesse ridiculous and foolishe are lykewise to bee seene in persons Melancholike for many in their daily dealings shew very apishe and fonde fashions and althoughe theyr witts be nothing at all empayred or alyenated yet doe they occupie themselues in matters lighte tryflinge vayne and friuolous For they be distempered in theyr right Witte feedinge theyr owne phantasies and doatinge not earnestlye and in deede but after a pleasauÌ„t sort as persons dwelling in a delightful and pleasurable madnesse insomuch that there be some of them which thinke themselues ill apayde and be right sory that they haue recouered the right state of their witts and come well home againe sharpely expostulating wyth their welwilling frends which frendly laboured and toke paynes for their recure and blaming them as men that had rather done them harme then good One of this plighte a Grecian borne of no base house pedagrew doth Horace depaint and set out vnto vs thus VVho thought himselfe braue melody to heare And galaunt Blouds on Stage their parts to play Such pleasure he conceyued in this geare That on the Stage vvhich empty vvas all day He sate and fed his fancye eu'ry vvay VVith sight of that vvhich vvas not so in deede Yet seemde to him as true as vvas his Creede At length vvheÌ„ he by meanes of vvealthy frends And diligent attendaunce at any ynch By drougs driÌ„cks vvhich help succour leÌ„ds Recured vvas from that his greuous pynch And ryd from that his Melancholie vvrynch In fayth que hee my freÌ„ds you haue my spoyled And kylde me cleane by you I am thus foyled Sure vnto me you haue done great displeasure To make froÌ„ me perforce this doating treasure vvhich fed my mind vvith ioy vvithouteÌ„ measure So synce the time that I first begaÌ„ to professe Phisick many haue bin brought vnto me whose mynds ranne vppon absurde imaginations and fonde PhaÌ„tastes There was one which thought himselfe to haue a Nose so bigge and of such a prodigious length that he thought hee caryed about wyth him the Snoute or Mussell of an Oliphant and that the same in euery thing that hee went about hindered him insomuch that sometime as he thoughte it laye in the dishe wherein his meate was The Phisition was sense for who suspecting as truth was the same to be nothing els then a MelaÌ„cholike affectio haÌ„dsomly closely cleanly coÌ„ueighed a loÌ„g Pudding vnto his Nose that done he toke hold of a piece of the very typpe of the fleshe thereof and wyth a Barbers rasure finely cut away the Nose which in ImaginatioÌ„ y party afore thoght himself to haue and immediatly thervpon bringing his Pacient a sleepe wyth a kinde of confected drinck and prescribing vnto him a holesome diet otherwyse banished and toke quight away froÌ„ him all the feare of harme and inconuenience which afore enconbred him An other Hypochondriake person that is to say one whose Hartstrynges were embolned and swolne wyth Melancholie Humour and inflammatioÌ„s was verily perswaded the hee had frogges and Toades in his bealie which gnawed eate asunder his Entrailes neyther could he by any man be perswaded to thincke the contrary The Physition to make him more obedient and wylling for Melancholike folkes will hardly be disswaded or brought from theyr opynions that they once lodge wythin their owne coÌ„ceipts soothed his sayings and plainlye affyrmed that of certaynty there were such thinges within him in deede as hee reported Hereuppon after the partye had taken a Purgation and vsed the helpe of a Clyster there was a meane founde to put some such crawlynge vermyne into the basen of his close Stoole Now when the Purgation had wroughte his nature effect he made many Syeges and the same verye abundantlye and after viewe of his excrements taken and seyng therein what kinde of creatures swymmed he rested satisfyed in mynde and dismissed from him that foolish and vayne opynion before conceyued An other there was which thought his Buttocks were made of glasse insomuch that he durst not do any thing but standing for feare least if he should sitte he should breake his rumâ—e and the Glasse flye into peeces These and such like kinds of Dotage and foolery which eyther prouoke others or themselues to laughter and gladnesse are quieter as Hippocrates sayth and nothinge fierce and outragious But those which proceede of a certayne studie and carefull meditation are worse as they that be accompanyed with a certayne furious temerity and rashnes sodainly and vnloked for damnyflyng and preiudycinge both themselues and others After this like sort euen within our Memory a certayne Gentleman fell into such an agonie fooles paradise that he thoughte himselfe dead was in himselfe perswaded to bee departed oute of this life and hereuppon when his frends and acquaintaunce with all kinde of fayre speeches flattering termes and chyding words had assayed to restoare him to his former strength and powers now decayed he turned the deafe eare to all that they sayde and refused all that they to him offered affyrminge himselfe to be deade and that a man in his caseâ—needed no sustenaunce or nourishment So long continued he in this fonde Humour till he was ready to sterue for hunger When the seuenth day was now at hand longer then which day sterued famished persons cannot liue they beganne to deuyse with themselues which way to heale this absurd passion and distemperauÌ„ce of their freend They vsed therfore this pollicie They caused certayne counterfeit persons lapped in their shrowdinge sheetes and tyed after the maner of dead Corses that be layed vppon Coffyns and caryed to buriall to be broughte into a darke Parlour where these disguysed persons sitting down at the Table which was wel furnished wyth choyse of sundry dishes tell to theyr victualls lustely The Passioned partly beholdyng these fellowes demaunded of them whereabout they went and what kinde of people they were They aunsweared the they were dead men What quoth hee
