who was thus affected by the ardent venemous and fierce aspect of a Mad Dogg earnestly looking him in the face neither biting or touching him any manner of way And this Poyson doth sometimes manifest it self sooner sometimes again later for what reason we are as yet left in the dark neither is the time exactly known when the effects begin to manifest themselves some say within a Week others nine or Fourteen dayes after A third sort say about the seventeenth or twentieth but most hold Of the time when the efects appears about the thirtieth or fortieth day after the bite Nay and sometimes there is no sign of it till 4. Moneths after as Galen holdes As also Codronchus Baldus the great Lawyer as Paraeus notes Lib. 21. De venenis Cap. 14. Dyed foure Moneths after he was bitten some not till the 6. or 8. Moneth or a year as others will Albertus Magnus De Hist Animal Lib. 7. Cap. 2. Sayes he saw a man that was bitten with a Mad Dogg in the Arm and yet was well for seven years after which the place be gan to be inflamed and so within two day dyed And Fracastorius sayes five years but Gnianerius twelve years Amatus Lucitanus gives instances of eight moneths and of three years But Petrus Salius of five seven and twelve years As also eighteen years Nay and Alsaharavius attests he knew one that lived 40. years before he was apparently infected I shall not presume to correct so worthy so learned Whether that Poyson which causeth this madness may be generated in Mans Body so able Physicians as these are which thus affirm but I may acknowledge my self ignorant in the reason hereof without prejudicing any man as also take that liberty as to think my pleasure and not conclude with all I heare especially since there are so many poysons that may accidentally interveane and be eaten unawares that may cause Death in such a manner as will be very difficult to determine whether was the Interficient dosse And so as some think There be many posons which being taken will kill at such or such certain times after Qua de re consule Galeotum De promiscua disciplina Cap. 12.

But as to this Tenet we spake our opinion in Part. 1. Sect. 4. Besides the same Poyson and venemous matter of which this madness ariseth may be generated in the Bodies of Men and Women without any infection from Doggs at all To this purpose Marcellus Donatus De Historia medica mirabili Lib. 6. Cap. 1. De Hydrophobia mira affectio gives us five severall examples of such as were so affected and fallen into the disease called Hydrophobia without the least communication of the said venome from any Dogg or thing but purely from some innate seeds thereof inherent in themselves Likewise the same aforequoted Petrus Salius De affect Partic. Cap. 19. Hath such an other instance So hath Felix Paterus obser Med. Lib. 1. Touching the nature and temperature of this Poyson many arguments are among the Learned Some maintaining it to be Hot others Cold with Enstathius Rudins Lib. 4. De Morbis occultis Cap. 12. who labours by severall arguments to maintain this Paradox But the most Rationall and Learned are of the contrary Judgement affirming it to be Hot and Dry of quality As Fuchsius Fernelius Sennertus c. Hildesheim Speciel 2. Confirms it by severall examples in such as have been infectected by the bite of Mad Doggs and dying madd being opened had no water or blood scarce or any other moisture left in them And Capivaccius Fract med Lib. 7. Cap. 12. Concludes it not only Hot but Hot in the fourth Degree which from his own experience in a certain Monck whose Body being defected dying in this sort of madness from the bite of a Dogg He observed these three things clearly evincing the truth therof First that there was no moisture in the Pericardion in the least but all wasted and dryed up by the fiery Poyson Secondly the Cells or Ventricles of the Heart were dry and destitute of blood Thirdly That some part of the Pericardi● on was so dry scorcht and burnt up that it was fit to be pulverized Besides their inordinate Draught evinceth putting the matter quite out of Doubt and makes it evidently appear to be Hot. And yet notwithstanding they will rather choose to Dye then Drink out of a peculiar inherent property or occult quality which as yet to tell you the truth is not known to Physicians and Philosophers even as they who are bitten with the spider Tarantula as you will hear beneath are in more ease Of the nature of this Poyson and why such as are affected abhor water and all other liquid things pleasant merry and Dance when they hear Musick nay and are oftentimes cured thereby And those who have eaten of the Sea Hare abhor all Fish So I say doth they who are infected by the bite of a Mad Dogg or otherwayes from an occult quality in the Poyson naturally abhor all water whence by the Ancients as Dodonaeus obs medicinal Cap. 12. notes it had it's Denomination Hydrophobia And that it is thus Rhasis hath a notable story to this effect Lib. 8. Ad Almansoar Cap. 10. we had once a patient in an Hospitall affected with that Disease called Hydrophobia by the biting of a Mad Dogg who whould usually bark in the night time Calling often very earnestly for Drink especially water out of the extremity of his Drought But when we gave him Water he abominated and rejected it saying it was full of filth and pollution And being demanded what filth he saw there He replyed the intralls and garbidge of Doggs and Catts intreating he might have some other Water brought him So accordingly other Water was fetcht But as before he continued in the same story and began to be angry Beseeching us earnestly that we would let him have some clear good Water So that hence we may Collect that this may likewise proceed from some Depravation of the Phansie the Brain being principally the part affected in this Disease as all Physicians unanimously agree And it being incident to all who are therewith infected to have the representation of a Dogg ever in their minds and therefore shun Looking-glasses Polite Bodies and Water because they imagine they see a Dogg in it of which examples are frequent in Authours And not only of Water are they thus afraid but of all other liquours and Drinks whatsoever as the same Dodonaeus loco aligato observes So doth Vidus Vidius Part. 2. Sect. 2. Cap. 6. Medecine Illustrating the truth

Of the Serpent Natrix and its Antidotes NAtrix is likewise a most pernitious and destructive Serpent for the most part and commonly called by An hours Hydrus yet many name it according to the place and time of its appearance As if it be found upon the earth in the Summer or Autumn it is called Chersybres in the Winter or Spring in the water Amphybium● of which the former is much more poysonous and dangerous then the latter or more plainly when it is found upon the earth it is reputed more venemous then when it is found in the water For Chersydri or such as are found in the earth are recorded by severall from Apollodorus to be of force sufficient to kill any Man that toucheth them even when they are dead The symptomes that usually follow upon the bite of these Creatures is much the same which you have before heard of the Viper only they kill more suddainly or as soon within three hours time Ardoynus Contends The Cure is likewise the same with that of the Viper wherefore to avoid Tautology I shall thither refer thee SECTION XI Of the Serpents Amphysbaena and Scytale with their Antidotes AMphysbaena Scytale These are Serpents so called by the Learned And because they are so like one the other And therefore Authours have joyned them together I shall not here at this time put them assunder especially since they are also both alike hurtfull Herein only they differ Amphysbaena moves both forward and backward whence by some it is thought it hath its name But Scytale moveth only forward and is something thicker then the Amphysbaena It is reported also of this latter that if a Woman with Child do but cross it she shall miscarry or be in great danger in Child-bed Such as are bitten by either of these kinds of Serpents are molested in the part affected with grievous and intollerable paines inflammations redness swellings and sometimes impostumes Nay and there followes all those horrid signes and symptomes which you have read before where we spake of the Viper which because the Cure is likewise the same I shall not here again reiterate but for brevities sake refer thee thereunto SECTION XII Of the Haemorrhous and its Antidotes Haemorrhous or Haemorhus as Galen hath it in Lib. De Theriaca ad Pisonem adding it to be so pernitious and such an enemy unto Mankind that whosoever is bitten thereby bleeds not only by the wound but also by the Mouth Nose and all other evacuations of the Body whence it is thought by most it had its name Paraeus Sennertus and others say it causeth the member to grow black by extinguishing naturall heat and to swell then followes a paine of the stomach and difficulty of breathing Depraving of the voice hindring the passage of the urine Hurts the memory putrifies the gumms and causeth the teeth to fall out of the Jawes and at length poureth out the Soul that Death it self ensues Moreover according to those Verses in Lucan and Lucretius recorded by Gesuer Schenkius and Sennertus blood doth not only issue as Galen notes out of the Mouth and Note but out of the Eye also Eares and every other passage and hole in the Body nay from the very Gummes rootes of the Nailes and sometimes from old wounds c.
