Of the sickenesse at Oxford ANd now that I have given mine advise to Students touching the Plague I will speake somewhat of other diseases neere Cosins to the Plague which have fallen out as well in the Vniversities as in the country abroad and may doe againe if Gods will bee so The chiefest of which is that sickenesse which yet beareth the name of England and is called of forraine nations Sudor Anglicus the English sweat or sweating sickenesse as we terme it A kinde of Pestilence no doubt and so is it judged of Leonhartus Fuchsius where he saith in this manner Quod si venenata ac pernitiosa haec qualitas primum in spiritibus haeserit eosque devastaverit ac corruperit ●rit ●um febris pestilentialis Diaria quales fuere quae in lue illa quam Sudorem Anglicum vocant Anno 1529. per universam Germaniam grassabantur This sickenesse began first in England Anno 1485. in the very first yeare of the raigne of King Henry the seventh and was againe renued Anno 1528. in the twentieth yeare of King Henry the eight and sprang the third time Anno 1551 in the fifth yeare of King Edward the sixth So that three times England hath beene plagued therewith to the great destruction and mortality of the people and not England onely but Germany also and Flanders and Brabant insomuch that at Antwerpe there dyed of the sweat in three dayes space five hundred persons And in London and in the suburbes there dyed in the same disease in manner within sixe daies space in the fifth yeare of Edward the sixth eight hundred persons and most of them men in their best yeares The manner of this disease was such that if men did take cold outwardly it strooke the sweat in and immediatly killed them If they were kept very close and with many clothes it stifeled them and dissolved nature If they were suffered to sleepe commonly they swooned in their sleepe and so departed or else immediately upon their waking But at length by the study of physicians and experience of the people driven thereto by dreadfull necessity there was a remedy invented after this manner If a man on the day time were taken with the sweate then he should streight lye downe with all his clothes and garments and lie still the whole 24 houres If in the night he were taken then he should not rise out of his bed for the space of 24 houres and so cast the clothes on him that he might in no wise provoke the sweate but so lye temperately that the sweat might distll out softly of it owne accord and to absteine from all meat if he might so long susteine and suffer hunger and to take lukewarme drinke no more then would delay thirst and withall to put forth neither hand nor foot out of the bed but to avoid cold in every part of the body and so continuing without sleep in a moderate sweat for 24. houres after that time to sleepe and eat at pleasure yet measurably for feare of relaps for some were taken thrise with this disease and after the third time dyed of the same Which relaps happeneth likewise in the common Plague for as Ficinus writeth of his owne knowledge that a Florentine who had beene twise delivered of the plague Tertio mortem evadere non potuit Wherefore let no man thinke that if he have once escaped the sweating sicknesse or the pestilence that hee may not fall againe into the same disease But some man will say it is needlesse now to write of the sweating sickenesse because it neither is nor hath beene of long time Whereto I answer that although it be not at this present God bee thanked therefore and God defend us from it alwayes yet by the judgement of some Astronomers namely Francis Keete a man very well learned in that art in his Almanacke for the yeare of our Lord God 1575 it was very like to have renued in this our Realme for as much as the heavens then were in like order in a manner as they were at those times before when that kinde of disease so cruelly raged Wherein hee erred not much for both that yeare and divers yeares since have fallen out many strange and grievous sickenesses and dangerous diseases unknowne to the most part of physitians as that disease specially which was at Oxford at the assises anno 1577. and began the sixth day of Iuly from which day to the twelfth day of August next ensuing there dyed of the same sickenesse five hundred and tenne persons all men and no women The chefest of which were the two Iudges sir Robert Bell Lord chiefe Baron and master Sergeant Baram master Doile the high Sheriffe five of the Iustices foure counsailours at the law and an atturny The rest were of the iurers and such as repayred thither All infected in a manner at one instant by reason of a dampe or mist which arose among the people within the Castle yard and court house caused as some thought by a traine and trechery of one Rowland Ienks booke binder of Oxford there at that time arrained and condemned But as I thinke sent onely by the will of God as a scourge for sinne shewed chiefely in that place and at that great assembly for example of the whole Realme that famous Vniversity being as it were the fountaine and eye that should give knowledge and light to all England Neither may the Vniversitie of Cambridge in this respect glory above Oxford as though they had greater priviledge from Gods wrath for I read in Hales Chronicle in the thirteenth yeare of King Henry the eight that at the assise kept at the Castle of Cambridge in Lent anno 1522 the Iustices and all the gentlemen Bailiffes and other resorting thither tooke such an infection that many gentlemen and yeomen thereof dyed and almost all which were there present were sore sicke and narrowly escaped with their lives what kinde of disease this should bee which was first at Cambridge and after at Oxford it is very hard to define neither hath any man that I know written of
