wherfore
Iohannitius

Causes
of
〈◊〉
solution
of
continuitie
.
The
causes
of
euery
solution
of
continuitie
(
as
Haliabas
witnesseth
)
are
thynges
sensible
,
or
insensible
.
Thinges
insensible
are
these
staues
,
swerdes
,
stones
.
&c.
Thynges
sensible
are
the
bytynges
of
serpentes
,
or
other
venimous
beastes
,
or
of
men
.
&c.
Seing
that
we
haue
suffycyentlye
spoken
of
the
kyndes
,
and
causes
of
solution
of
continuitie
in
membres
simple
&
compounde
,
it
is
conuenient
,
that
we
declare
the
deuysion
of
the
sayde
solution
of
continuitie
.
Solution
of
continuitie
is
double
,
namely
simple
,
and
compound
.
The
symple
is
that
,
that
is
without
losse
of
the
substaunce
of
the
parte
where
it
is
.
For
the
cure
whereof
one
onely
intention
is
requyred
,
that
is
to
saye
vnition
or
conioynyng
of
the
partes
seperated
or
sondred
.
Compounde
is
that
,
that
is
with
the
losse
of
the
substaunce
of
the
parte
where
it
is
.
To
whose
cure
there
are
necessarily
two
thynges
requyred
.
One
is
generation
of
the
lost
substaunce
.
The
other
is
to
ioyne
the
partes
that
bene
sondred
,
whan
the
lost
substaunce
is
restored
,
by
conuenient
medicines
.
Lykewyse
we
saye
generally
that
euerye
wounde
is
compounde
,
Woundes
compounde
.
that
hath
any
thyng
ioyned
vnto
it
,
without
remotion
,
whereof
the
wounde
can
not
be
healed
,
as
woundes
caused
by
brusynge
,
whiche
are
apostemous
,
and
be
with
solution
of
continuitie
:
and
therfore
for
theyr
curation
you
must
not
procede
by
the
waye
of
the
fyrst
intention
at
the
begynning
,
bycause
of
the
bruse
.
For
Galene
sayeth
,
that
euery
brused
wounde
must
be
putrifyed
,
A
digestyue
〈…〉
woundes
.
and
turned
into
quytture
,
or
mattier
.
For
the
curation
of
these
woundes
at
the
begynnynge
,
ye
shall
vse
a
dygestiue
.
For
that
swageth
payne
and
seperateth
the
matter
altered
through
contusion
or
brusynge
from
the
hole
partes
.
After
the
same
maner
,
a
wounde
that
is
altered
by
the
ayre
,
must
be
handled
.
Furthermore
,
there
are
woundes
compounde
that
ben
payneful
,
apostemous
,
altered
through
the
ayre
,
&
all
other
in
which
any
thing
not
naturall
is
conneyted
,
as
a
pece
of
yron
,
a
pece
of
wode
,
or
a
stone
,
which
can
not
be
in
the
wounde
without
hurt
thereof
.
And
of
these
flesshye
woundes
,
some
are
superficiall
,
some
depe
.
The
superficial
are
easely
healed
,
for
they
requyre
onely
conuenyent
byndinge
.
The
depe
are
eyther
accordynge
to
the
length
of
the
place
,
or
accordynge
to
the
bredth
.
They
that
are
made
accordynge
to
the
length
are
more
easelye
cured
,
than
the
other
,
&
been
caused
by
cuttyng
thynges
,
as
swerdes
.
&c.
Some
by
brusynge
thynges
as
by
staues
,
stones
.
&c.
Some
by
poynted
thynges
as
by
a
darte
:
an
arowe
,
and
lyke
.
Furthermore
solution
of
continuitie
in
the
flesh
(
as
the
doctours
say
)
maye
be
restored
,
by
the
waye
of
the
fyrst
intention
,
but
that
,
that
is
in
the
bone
can
not
be
restored
,
Porus
sarcoidis
.
but
by
the
waye
of
the
seconde
intention
,
that
is
to
saye
:
per
porum
sarcoidem
.
Neuerthelesse
the
bones
of
yonge
chyldren
may
be
restored
by
the
waye
of
the
fyrste
intention
,
for
two
causes
.
Fyrst
bycause
of
the
tendernesse
of
the
bone
.
Secondly
bycause
of
the
vertu
of
seede
remaynynge
yet
in
the
membres
of
yonge
chyldren
.
Some
doctours
saye
that
the
sinnowes
,
the
veynes
,
and
the
arteries
can
not
be
restored
by
the
way
of
the
fyrst
intention
,
but
by
the
way
of
the
second
intention
,
as
bones
be
.
Some
saye
that
thys
is
true
onely
in
arteries
,
whiche
thynge
Galene
wytnesseth
,
sayinge
:
manye
haue
thought
that
it
is
impossyble
,
that
the
substaunce
of
an
arterie
shulde
be
consounded
,
and
theyr
probation
rested
,
in
consyderation
and
experyence
.
The
consyderation
was
,
that
one
of
the
skynnes
of
an
arterie
,
semeth
to
be
grystellye
,
for
grystels
and
extremities
of
bones
can
not
be
consounded
,
neyther
receyue
incarnation
.
The
experience
was
,
that
they
neuer
sawe
an
arterie
to
haue
receyued
incarnation
.
Arteries
may
be
consounded
But
Galene
reproueth
theyr
opynion
,
sayinge
:
that
arteries
ben
incarned
bothe
by
reason
and
experience
.
By
experience
,
for
we
see
,
(
sayth
he
)
often
the
arteries
that
ben
vnder
the
veyne
called
basilica
in
the
temples
,
and
in
the
legges
to
be
consounded
.
By
reason
it
maye
this
be
proued
.
The
bones
receyue
not
consolidation
,
bycause
they
be
harde
in
an
extreme
degree
.
But
the
arteryes
being
of
a
meane
substaunce
betwene
a
bone
,
and
flesh
,
maye
receyue
incarnation
by
the
way
of
the
fyrst
intention
.
But
before
we
come
to
the
vniuersall
curation
of
woundes
,
it
is
expedyent
,
The
fyrst
doctrine
to
be
obserued
in
curyng
of
woundes
.
that
we
declare
certayne
doctrynes
touchynge
the
cure
of
woundes
.
Fyrst
whan
ye
begynne
to
cure
a
depe
wounde
,
ye
shal
put
your
finger
into
it
,
to
assay
,
whether
there
be
any
parte
of
the
bone
separated
.
Yf
there
be
,
you
must
drawe
it
out
softlye
,
for
otherwyse
you
can
neuer
come
to
the
true
cure
.
Secondly
,
yf
there
chaunce
greate
affluence
of
bloude
in
the
hurt
place
,
incontinently
you
shal
staunche
the
bloude
accordyng
to
the
doctrine
wrytten
in
a
propre
Chapitre
of
the
cure
of
the
fluxe
of
bloude
.
Whan
blood
ought
to
be
stopped
.
But
yf
the
bloode
be
not
in
greate
abundaunce
,
ye
shall
not
staunche
it
,
which
thyng
is
approued
by
Auicenne
,
sayinge
:
that
yf
the
blood
runne
not
to
abundantly
it
is
good
to
kepe
the
wounde
from
apostemyng
,
from
oppilations
,
and
fieuers
.
wherfore
we
maye
conclude
that
bloode
commyng
in
a
small
quantitie
ought
not
to
be
restrayned
.
But
yf
it
runne
abundauntly
,
ye
shall
stop
it
,
for
bloode
is
the
treasure
of
lyfe
.
The
thyrde
doctryne
is
,
that
the
lyppes
of
a
grene
wounde
muste
be
sewed
togyther
incontinentlye
,
that
they
be
not
altred
by
the
ayre
.
Also
ye
must
take
good
hede
that
thycke
and
congeled
bloode
remayne
not
wythin
the
wound
,
for
it
may
cause
payn
,
and
putrefaction
,
and
hyndre
incartion
.
The
fourthe
is
,
that
you
must
beware
that
no
heer
nor
vnctuous
thing
nor
dust
entre
into
the
borders
or
lippes
of
the
wounde
.
For
these
thinges
let
true
consolidation
.
Howbeit
whan
the
wounde
is
depe
,
it
is
verye
good
to
leaue
an
hole
in
the
lower
parte
of
it
,
&
to
put
into
the
same
a
tent
rolled
in
a
digestiue
of
yolkes
of
egges
,
and
terebentine
.
It
is
profytable
for
two
causes
.
Fyrst
to
purge
the
moysture
,
and
fylth
commyng
out
of
the
depth
of
the
wounde
.
Secondly
to
appayse
payne
,
and
to
kepe
the
place
from
apostemation
.
For
the
mattier
that
myght
cause
an
aposteme
is
purged
by
the
sayde
hole
.
The
fyft
doctrine
is
,
that
after
the
vnition
of
the
sondred
partes
by
a
conuenyent
seame
,
Whan
the
poynts
of
the
seame
must
be
remoued
.
the
poyntes
of
the
sayde
seame
be
taken
away
after
the
syxt
daye
,
althoughe
Arzilata
,
commaundeth
to
leaue
them
.x.
dayes
.
For
the
flowe
remouynge
of
the
poyntes
causeth
manye
euyll
accidentes
,
as
fylth
engendred
within
them
,
payne
,
&
apostemation
.
wherfore
it
is
more
conuenyent
to
remoue
than
the
thyrd
,
the
fyfth
,
or
at
the
leest
the
syxt
daye
,
and
in
stede
of
them
ye
shall
retayne
the
borders
of
the
wounde
by
the
admynystration
of
a
pece
encolled
,
Enrolled
what
it
is
rede
the
.vi.
cha.
of
this
boke
of
woundes
.
wherof
we
wyl
speake
in
the
chaptre
of
woundes
of
the
face
.
But
to
come
to
the
curation
of
flesshie
woundes
,
we
saye
that
therevnto
there
bene
foure
intentions
requyred
.
The
fyrst
is
accomplyshed
by
ordynaunce
of
lyfe
,
or
diete
.
The
seconde
by
purgation
of
the
body
.
The
thirde
by
application
of
sondrye
remedyes
,
vpon
the
sore
place
.
The
fourthe
by
defending
accidentes
that
they
come
not
,
and
by
remouynge
those
that
be
come
.
Concernynge
the
fyrst
intention
which
is
kepyng
of
diete
,
Diete
.
yf
the
patient
be
choleryke
,
or
sanguyne
,
it
is
necessary
that
he
eate
no
flesh
,
nor
drink
wyne
vnto
the
fourthe
or
seuenthe
daye
.
Also
he
must
abstayne
from
meates
that
engendre
great
abundaunce
of
bloude
.
But
flegmatike
and
melancholyke
persons
may
eate
fleshe
,
and
drynke
wyne
,
namelye
at
the
begynnynge
.
wherfore
these
chirurgiens
the
commaunde
a
strayte
diete
to
all
patientes
,
as
though
they
had
a
contynuall
fieuer
,
do
euyll
and
vnlernedly
.
For
wine
gyuen
in
due
tyme
to
wounded
men
(
as
the
Philosophers
saye
)
furthereth
moche
the
generacyon
of
flesshe
in
flesshye
woundes
.
wherfore
the
excellent
doctour
Arnolde
de
villa
noua
sayeth
that
a
spedye
consolidation
of
a
wounde
chaunceth
not
,
but
by
pure
bloude
wythoute
watrynesse
.
wherfore
in
this
case
what
thyng
is
worse
,
than
to
defraude
nature
of
bloude
,
by
the
meanes
wherof
that
,
Wyne
to
a
wounded
.
that
is
lost
is
restored
,
and
that
,
that
is
sondred
is
vnyed
and
conioyned
,
and
the
wounde
that
is
hollowe
is
fylled
with
flesh
.
Yea
,
we
saye
wyth
Galene
that
wyne
is
conuenyent
to
anye
wounded
man
.
For
whan
it
is
dronken
it
engendreth
good
bloude
,
and
whan
it
is
layed
vpon
the
wound
it
dryeth
and
mundifyeth
it
,
whyche
thynges
ben
requisyte
in
this
case
.
And
it
is
as
it
were
the
artifycer
of
nature
.
And
therfore
we
saye
(
whatsoeuer
other
thynke
)
that
the
tru
cure
of
woundes
consysteth
in
two
thynges
.
Fyrst
in
hym
that
quykneth
,
and
mortifyeth
all
thynges
.
Secondly
in
nature
.
And
nature
can
not
worke
ryghtly
without
the
noryshmente
of
of
good
bloode
,
neyther
in
great
nor
in
lytle
woundes
.
wherfore
we
must
conclude
,
that
meates
which
engendre
good
bloude
,
maye
be
gyuen
to
wounded
men
,
that
nature
maye
be
able
to
engendre
the
lost
substaunce
,
for
the
consolidation
of
the
wounde
.
who
is
ygnoraunt
that
,
that
medycine
is
not
conuenient
nor
restoreth
flesh
which
drieth
humiditie
notably
and
gyueth
moysture
to
drye
places
,
cooleth
superfluous
heate
,
and
heateth
colde
partes
?
Complection
is
necessarye
to
be
knowen
wherfore
it
is
necessarye
to
knowe
the
complection
of
bodyes
,
and
consydre
whether
they
ben
tendre
,
moyst
or
drye
.
For
it
is
expedyent
to
drye
the
wound
of
a
tendre
body
,
bycause
of
his
humiditie
.
Desiccatiue
or
drying
medicines
ben
good
concernynge
the
disease
,
but
not
concernyng
the
complection
of
the
membre
.
For
hote

requyre
hote
aydes
,
moist
,
moist
aydes
,
as
we
haue
declared
afore
in
the
seconde
boke
by
the
auctoritie
of
Galene
,
sayinge

hote

aske

Tendre
bodies
are
moyste
.
Tendre
bodyes
ben
moyste
,
as
the
bodyes
of
chyldren
,
women
,
gelded
men
,
and
flegmatyke
persones
.
The
bodyes
of
labourers
,
Drye
bodyes
.
and
of
them
that
iourney
on
fote
,
are
very
drye
.
wherfore
we
must
note
bothe
the
qualitie
of
the
body
&
of
the
hurted
membre
.
For
yf
the
bodye
be
drye
to
conserue
hys
naturall
complection
,
it
is
conuenient
to
vse
drye
thynges
,
but
not
concernyng
the
cure
of
a
disease
that
chaunceth
in
a
dry
body
.
But

and
how

I
wyll

whan

It

how

of

.
Yf
ye
se
the
wounde
to
be
to
moche
heated
,
ye
maye
saye
that
your
medycyne
was
to
hote
,
and
to
drye
.
Contrarye
wyse
yf
the
wounde
be
to
moche
cooled
,
you
maye
iudge
that
the
medicynes
were
to
colde
.
You
must
cole

of
whiche
by

we

in

The

consisteth
in

¶
The
seconde
chapytre
of
the
fluxe
of
bloode
,
and
of
the
cure
thereof
.
IT
is
euydent
after
the
doctrine
of
auncient
writers
,
Of
the
fluxe
of
bloode
.
that
blood
floweth
out
of
the
veynes
thorough
two
causes
.
The
fyrste
issuynge
commethe
by
cause
primytiue
,
the
seconde
by
cause
antecedent
.
The
fluxe
of
blood
called
Hemoragia
proceding
thoroughe
a
cause
antecedent
,
Hemoragia
.
maye
chaunce
thre
maner
of
wayes
.
First
by
resudation
or
swetynge
out
of
veynes
.
Secondly
by
openyng
of
the
mouthes
of
the
same
.
Thyrdly
by
corruption
of
the
veynes
caused
by
some
sharpe
,
venimous
,
and
bytyng
matter
.
But
bycause
we
wyll
treate
only
in
this
present
chapy.
of
the
fluxe
of
bloode
that
chauncethe
in
woundes
and
vlceres
,
we
wyll
declare
the
cure
thereof
as
briefely
as
we
canne
.
Fyrst
ye
shall
note
that
the
fluxe
of
bloode
which
chaunceth
in
awounde
,
is
great
,
lytle
,
or
meane
.
Whan
it
is
lytle
or
meane
,
it
is
sone
restrayned
.
And
it
is
a
sygne
that
the
veynes
ben
not
verie
greate
.
If
bloode
flowe
out
of
the
wounde
abundauntlye
,
and
yf
ye
perceaue
that
the
wounde
,
is
in
a
place
of
greate
veynes
or
Arteries
,
than
incontinentlye
wyth
all
diligence
ye
shall
remedye
it
.
For
(
as
the
Philosophers
saye
)
bloode
is
the
treasure
of
lyfe
.
A
sygne
that
the
bloode
issueth
out
of
an
Arterie
,
is
thys
,
Signe
of
arterial
bloode
.
the
colour
is
purple
,
and
it
commethe
out
by
leapes
.
The
bloode
that
commethe
out
of
the
veynes
is
grosser
,
and
redder
than
the
bloode
of
the
Arteries
,
and
therefore
leapeth
not
.
Furthere
it
is
to
be
noted
,
that
yf
the
fluxe
of
bloode
be
wyth
putrefaction
of
the
wounde
and
continuethe
manye
dayes
,
than
there
is
daunger
of
deathe
,
as
we
haue
seen
in
lytle
fluxes
of
bloode
in
the
handes
,
fete
,
or
armes
.
And
Auicenne
sayth
that
yoxyng
,
the
crampe
,
and
perturbation
of
rayson
foloweth
thys
fluxe
of
bloode
.
As
touchynge
the
bloode
fluxe
of
the
inner
membres
,
as
of
the
lyuer
,
the
lunges
,
the
reynes
and
the
blader
,
we
wyll
not
treate
of
them
in
thys
present
chapytre
,
but
hereafter
particulerly
.
The
curation
of
the
fluxe
of
bloode
hathe
a
double
intentyon
,
namelye
a
particuler
,
and
vniuersall
.
The
intention
vniuersall
is
accomplisshed
by
purgation
of
the
bodye
,
and
regiment
of
lyfe
whyche
maye
engrosse
blood
.
And
more
ouer
by
rubbynges
,
The
cure
of
Hemoragia
.
and
dyuersions
in
the
contrarye
syde
.
The
patyente
in
thys
case
shall
eate
Lentiles

Rise
,
Quynces
,
Layctuce
,
Purcelayne
,
breyfely
all
stiptyke

.
For
hys
dryncke
,
he
shall
vse
colde
water
wyth
a
iuleb
of
Vyolettes
and
Roses
,
whyche
in
thys
case
is
verye
good
.
For
it
engrosseth
bloode
,
and
altereth
humours
and
quencheth
thirst
.
Also
water
of
symple
barley
,
is
not
to
be
discommended
.
The

is
dewly
emptied
in
thys
case

in

hauynge

But
yf

you
shal

that

Certes
in

we
haue

wyll

And
thus
we
maye
conclude
that
the

maye
be
broken
,

opened
without

The

assygned
by

chaunce
all
,

moste

in
a

the
fyrst

,
whereof
great

felle

yea

also
yssueth

And
when
the

it
semeth
that
the

commeth
out

Note
also
that
(

sayeth

the

happen
somtyme

A
litle
breach
.
But
yf
the
breache
be
lytle
namely
after
the
bygnes
of
an
heere
,
&
but
very
lytle
bloode
descendeth
vpon
dura
mater
,
we
saye
that
the
sayd
accidentes
,
&
sygnes
wrytten
by
Guydo
and
Petre
de
Arzilata
,
happen
not
.
It
foloweth
then
that
the
sculle
may
be
broken
,
and
yet
the
sayd
accidentes
chaunce
not
at
the
begynning
,
but
a
good
whyle
after
the
stroke
they
wyl
appeare
.
And
we
haue
sene
that
these
accidentes
haue
chaunced
slowly
,
by
lytle
and
lytle
,
so
that
vnexperte
chirurgiens
haue
thought
,
that
those
accidentes
proceded
of
some
other
cause
then
of
the
wounde
.
Howe
to
know
the
brekyng
of
the
sculle
.
wherfore
that
ye
may
haue
knowlege
of
euery
breach
howe
lytle
so
euer
it
be
,
as
Auicenne
,
&
Cornelius
Celsus
saye
,
you
must
consyder
the
stryker
,
and
the
thynge
wherwyth
he
stroke
.
And
also
whether
the
stroke
came
from
afarre
,
or
nyghe
,
or
from
aboue
,
or
whether
it
was
done
by
anger
,
by
a
cuttyng
thynge
,
brusynge
,
or
poynted
,
or
whether
he
that
stroke
were
not
holden
of
them
that
stode
by
,
whether
the
man
that
was
stricken
was
bare
headed
,
or
couered
,
by
such
discrete
inquisition
ye
maye
haue
knowlege
of
the
breache
.
wherfore
yf
a
man
be
greuously
strycken
and
some
of
the
sayd
sygnes
folowe
,
though
the
chyncke
or
ryft
be
not
founde
in
that
place
,
where
the
skynne
is
rased
awaye
,
ye
shall
consydre
whether
ther
be
any
swellyng
,
or
softnes
in
some
other
place
,
and
open
it
,
yf
perchaunce
the
cut
bone
may
be
founde
.
For
yf
the
broken
bone
be
not
eased
,
it
causeth
greuous
apostemations
whiche
afterwarde
can
not
be
cured
wyth
out
greater
payne
of
the
patient
,
then
he
shulde
haue
had
at
the
fyrst
.
And
the
sayd
doctour
affyrmeth
that
some
tymes
the
wounde
is
in
one
syde
and
the
breach
in
an
other
.
wherfore
in
euery
stroke
,
in
whyche
breakynge
of
the
sculle
is
feared
,
it
is
a
moost
sure
waye
to
open
the
place
largely
.
For
the
skynne
is
sone
healed
agayne
.
The
same
doctour
sayth
moreouer
,
that
for
the
serchynge
out
of
a
priuie
chyncke
or
ryft
it
is
conuenient
to
laye
blacke
ynke
vpon
the
skulle
,
and
then
to
take
it
awaye
wyth
a
conuenient
instrument
.
For
the
ynke
entreth
into
the
clefte
or
chyncke
,
and
there
remayneth
blacke
.
Dinus
also
sayeth
that
when
ye
haue
layed
yncke
vpon
the
bone
,
ye
muste
not
cease
to
remoue
it
,
vntyll
no

remayne
of

.
Seynge

and

it
resteth
that

,
&
by

waye
of
exiccation
,
and

.
Fyrst
to
come
to
handye
operation
,
we
saye
that
when
a

is
called
for
the
cure
of

,
there
is
no
surer
operation
,

Make

vntyll
ye
maye

And
in
the
tyme
of

,
ye
shall

wyth

called

that
the
sayd
pannicle
be
not
hurte
by

,
and
rubbynge
of
the
instrumentes
of
yron
.
For
the
rubbynge
of
the
sayd
pannicle
(
as
Cornelius
Celsus
wytnesseth
)
causeth
greate
paynes
,
inflammations

.
The
patient
shal
eate
grated
breade
sodden
in

with
almandes
,
&
a

.
And
yf
the
patient
be
weake
,
he
maye
eate
of
the
brothe
of
a
chycken
altered
wyth
barley
,
he
may
also
haue
a
potage
made
with
wheat
floure
or
grated
bread
.
Further
more
it
is
good
that
the
patient
eate
after
meat
a
confection
of
quinces
,
that
vapours
ascende
not
into
the

.
Likewyse
when
the
patient
is
weake
,
at
the
begynnynge
he
muste
abstayne
from
drynkynge
of

,
and
he
must
drinke
water
of

with

,
or
with

,
chiefly
when
he
hath

&
yf
he
be

ye
may

After

ben
passed
ye
may
gyue
the
patient
a
chycken
to

and
to
drynke

moderatly
delayed
.
And
after
fourtene

ye
maye
ordeyne
hys

somewhat
grosser
,
that
the
incarnation

wyth

may

ye

.
How
be
it
he
muste
not

there
is

Causes
of

Wherfore
Auicenne
sayeth
,
that
an
aposteme
of
dura

commeth
through
fyue
causes
,
namely
by
multitude
of
wyne
and
meates
,
by
the
ayer
,
(
wherfore
he
sayeth
,
beware
of

called

and
by

.
When
the

Yf

ye
shall
laboure

And
yf
it

by

you
muste
take
them
awaye
and
also
the
medecynes
,
that
aggreue

Yf

For
the
prohibition

I

is
vexed

,
and
hath
the
palsye

,
it
is

Note

after

.xiiij.
day
,
but
is
of
good
corage
.
Furthermore
,
before
ye
come
to
handye
operation
,
ye
shal
note
the
obseruations
folowynge
,
Obseruation
whych
are
declared
by
sondry
auctours
.
The
fyrst
is
,
that
you
muste
admonysh
the
patientes
frendes
of
the
daunger
,
that
you
may
escape
an
euel
name
,
yf
the
patient
chaunce
to
dye
.
The
seconde
is
,
that
yf
the
patient
be
weake
,
you
shal
not
take
cure
of
him
as
Galene
by
the
auctoritie
of
Hipocrates
sayethe
:
where
feblenesse
is
,
there
you
shall
not
meddle
.
The
thyrde
is
to
auoyde
the
touchynge
of
the
commissures
.
For
yf
you
touche
them
,
you
maye
cause
the
ryme
Dura
mater
to
falle
vpon
the
brayne
.
For
it
is
sustayned
thereby
.
The
fourth
is
,
that
yf
it
be
possible
,
you
worke
not
in
the
tyme
of
the
full
of
the
moone
.
For
the
brayne
increaseth
at
that
tyme
,
and
approcheth
to
the
sculle
.
The
fyft
is
,
the
remouinge
of
the
bone
.
For
the
bone
must
be
taken
awaye
from
the
lower
place
,
yf
there
be
no
lette
.
For
whan
the
bone
is
taken
awaye
,
towarde
the
lower
parte
,
the
mattier
is
the
more
easelye
purged
.
The
syxte
is
,
that
you
muste
note
the
quantitie
of
the
eleuation
of
the
bone
,
which
is
declared
by
Galene
and
Paule
,
which
doctours
say
that
the
bone
must
not
be
taken
away
after
the
quantitie
and
lengthe
of
the
cracke
,
whan
it
is
great
,
but
it
suffyceth
onelye
to
eleuate
the
bone
in
the
lowest
parte
of
the
cracke
.
But
yf
the
bone
be
depressed
,
or
diminisshed
,
it
is
neadefull
to
take
awaye
the
bone
all
togyther
.
The
seuenth
is
,
that
yf
you
assaye
to
plucke
awaye
the
bone
,
and
it
wyll
not
come
out
,
you
muste
rubbe
the
sayde
bone
with
oyle
of
roses
,
that
it
maye
the
more
easely
,
and
with
lesse
payne
be
drawen
out
.
The
eyght
is
,
that
with
all
spede
,
you
come
to
handye
operation
,
chefelye
whan
there
is
pryckynge
,
or
depressyon
of
the
pannycles
.
For
they
cause
apostemation
,
and
euyll
accidentes
.
The
nynth
is
,
that
in
sommer
the
handye
operation
be
fynysshed
within
seuen
dayes
,
and
ten
in
the
wynter
:
for
the
soner
the
better
,
for
the
auoydaunce
of
accidentes
.
And
Auicenne
sayeth
,
that
whan
there
is
necessitie
of
rubbing
,
cutting
or
drawynge
oute
some
parte
of
the
bone
,
or
to
take
them
vp
whan
prycking
peces
be
fallen
vpon
dura
mater
,
than
you
must
make
haste
wythout
lokynge
for
the
parfyte
generacyon
of
quytture
.
But
yf
the
sayde
pannicle
be
not
hurt
,
you
maye
loke
for
the
generacyon
of
quytture
.
Seing
that
we
haue
declared
the
curation
of
a
broken
sculle
by
handy
operation
,
it
is
conuenient
that
we
speake
somewhat

the

that
whan

commeth
not

betwene

there
is
engendred

And
therfore
he
saith
,
that
before

the

amende

And
after
the
resolution
they
waxe
worse

wherfore

The

of

the
cure
of
the

.
THe
woundes
of
the
necke
,
&
of
the
throte
are
very
daungerous
bycause
of
the
great
issuing
of
blood
whan
some
veyne
is
cutte
,
Of
woundes
of
the
necke
and
throte
.
and
also
by
reason
of
the
concatenation
or
linckynge
together
of
the
synnowes
,
chordes
&
other
partes
,
and
also
by
reason
of
the
nuke
,
and
trachea
arteria
.
wherfore
I
wyll
breifly
declare
the
cure
of
them
.
The
foresaid
places
are
often
hurte
by

,

Fyrst
you

If

ye

And
whan
the

it

Of
woundes
of

shulders
.
THe
woundes
of
the

are
suspected
to

bycause
of

the
woundes

ioynctures

armes
.
The
sayd
woundes
receaue

bycause
of
the
greate

For

To

the

is
to

To

is

The

,
euacuation

The
third
is
to

the
said

by

application

conuenient
medicines

The
fourth
consisteth
in
the
prohibition

remouyng
of

.
The
fyrst
intention
is
accomplished
,
after
the
doctrine
declared

But
it
is
to
be
noted
,
that
yf

The

(

hath
vertue
to

to
kepe
it

moreouer
it
hath
parte

resolution

Briefly
it
is
a
singuler
remedy
in
all
woundes
,
to
defende
apostemation
.
whan
the
wounde
is
made
after
the
lengthe

you
maye
soone
iudge
,
that
the

is
wythout
daunger
of
deathe
.
And
in
thys
case
it
sufficiceth
,
besyde
the
remedyes
aboue
noted
,
to
make

If
the
sayde
place
be
hurte
wyth
apoynted
thynge
,
as
wyth
a
darte
.
&c.
you
shall
consider
whether
the
wound
be
vpon
the
muscle
,
For
we
haue
often
sene
that
by
incision
made
after
the
breadth
of
the
muscle
,
the
hande
hath
loste
hys
natural
mouynge
,
but
whan
the
sayde
wounde
is
large
ynoughe
,
than
it
sufficeth
to
applye
a
digestiue
of
the
yolkes
of
egges
and
oyle
of
roses
hote
,
vnto
a
perfytte
digestion
.
And
afterwarde
let
it
be
cured
accordynge
as
it
is
declared
in

former
chapiters
.
But
yf
the
wounde
be
so
strayte
that
deriuation
of

to
the
said
place
is
to
be
feared
,
whyche
myghte
cause

Than
you

whyche
bene
verye
daungerous
,

IT

They

Also

,
yf

besyde

it

When

is
putrefyed
,
it
is
wonte
to
engendre
greate
paynes
,
fieuers
,
and
heuynes
of
the
place
.
wherfore
we
affyrme
that
the
sayd
accidentes
chaunce
accordynge
to
the
quantitie
of
rotten
bloode
in

.
Nowe
that
we
haue
knowlege
of
woundes
percynge
,
and
of
the
hurte
of
the
inner
membres
,
it
remayneth
that
we
come
to
the
curation
of
the
same
,
whether
they
bene
persynge
or
not
.
But
before
we
speake
of
the
curation
,
we
wyll
declare
the
dyscorde
,
that
is
betwene
the
doctours
of
thys
tyme
,
concernynge
the
same
.
There
ben
many
that
commaunde
to
shutte
incontinently
the
penetraunt
wounde
,
and
to
procede
wyth
desiccatiue
thynges
,
aswell
wythin
,
as
wyth
out
to
cause
incarnation
,
sayenge
:
that
yf
the
sayd
wounde
be
not
shutte
,
the
ayer
wol
entre

,
vnto

,
&
more
ouer
that
the

woll

,
whyche
thynge
myghte
hurte
the

.
Agayne
many
ben
of
a
contrary
opinion
,
and
commaunde
to
kepe
the
wounde
open
.
And
yf
the
wounde
be
not
large
,
they
saye
it
must
be
enlarged
that
the
blood
maye
issue
out
,
affyrmynge
that
yf
the
bloode
whyche
is
in
the
inner

yssue
not
out
by
the
orifyce
of
the

,
it
maye
engendre
many
euyll
accidentes
,
and
corrupte

.
Wherfore
to
auoyde
suche
accidentes
,
they
commaunde
to

the

open
.
Vigo
hys
iugement
.
In
my
iudgement
,
they
whyche
commaunde
to
kepe
the
wounde
open
,
maynteyne
a
surer
opinion
then
the
other
,
for
many
reasons
.
Fyrste
bycause
of
the
commune
bruyte
.
For
yf
the
patient
shulde
dye
,
the
people
wolde
say
,
that
the
retaynynge
of
bloode
caused
hys
deathe
,
whyche
is
true
.
Lykewyse
bycause
the
bloode
beynge
retayned
causeth
some
fistula
,
and
other
accidentes
,
whych
brynge
the
patient
to
death
To
come
to
the
curation
,
we
saye
that
the
curation
of
a
wounde
penitraunt
is
accomplyshed
by
foure
intentions
.
The
cure
The
fyrst
is
ordinaunce
of
diete
.
The
seconde
euacuation
of
matter
antecedent
.
The
thyrde
purgation
of
the
blood
,
whych
is
entred
in
to
the
inner
parte
.
The
fourth
mundifycation
of
quytture
cause
by
the
sayde
bloode
,
and
after
mundification
,
incarnation
of
the
place
.
Touchynge
the
fyrste
,
and
the
seconde
intention
,
ye
shall
procede
as
it
is
declared
in
the
former
chapitres
,
excepte
that
yf
the
patient
be
very
weake
,
and
hath
euel
accidentes
,
as
soundyng
,
in
such
case
you
may
gyue
hym
wyne
,
and
other
thynges
that
comforte
nature
.
Furthermore
bycause
that
difficultie
of
breathynge
happeneth
to
the
patiente
,
ye
shall
gyue
hym
meates
sodden
with
rootes
of
perseley
,
and
fenell
.
And
for
the
comfortation
of
hys
harte
,
and
stomake
,
ye
maye
mengle
wyth
the
meates
of
the
patient
a
lytle
cinnamome
and
saffran
.
Item
it
is
very
profytable
to
vse
often
at
the
begynnynge
,
A
decoction
that
helpeth

.
thys
decoction

Item
seuen

besyde
the
meates
declared
,
ye
may
gyue
the

Lykewyse
you
shall
procede
,
when
you
wyll
purge
the
quytture
of
the
inner

.
Also
you
maye
gyue
the
patient
potage

the
brothe
of
the
foresayd
fleshe
with
perseley
,
buglosse
,
borage
,
laictuce

It
is
good
for
the
wounde
,
for
the
breath
,
and
for
the
taste
,
and
engendreth
good
bloode
.
When
you
wyll
mundifye
the
wounde
,
and
drye
vp
the
quytture
,
them
the
sayde
fleshe
is
better
rosted

Also
byrdes
that
lyue
in
woodes
,
and
meddowes
maye
well
be
suffered
,
but
not
waterfoule
.
Item
there
bene
some
whyche
commende
that
the
patient
vse
stiptike
meates
,
but
not
at
the
begynnynge
,
but
when
the
bloode
,
and
quytture
are
purged
.
For
yf
you
gyue
them
at
the
begynnynge
,
ye
shall
retayne
the
bloode
and
the
quytture
,
whyche
thynge
myghte
encrease
difficultie
of
breathynge
,
a
daungerous
thynge
in
thys
case
.
wherfore
at
the
begynnyng
ye
shal
not
applye
stiptike
,
and
clammyshe
thynges
,
nether
wythin
nor
wythout
.
Furthermore
you
maye
vse
flebotomie
in
the
contrarye
parte
,
and
scarifycation
vpon
the
botockes
,
and
rubbynges
,
and
byndynges
of
the
extreme
partes
,
to
kepe
of
apostemation
at
the
begynnynge
.
Item
it
is
commendable
to
vse
a
clyster
,
hauynge
vertue
to
dyssolue
wyndynes
,
and
bloode
.
The
thyrde
intention
whych
consysteth
in
purgation
of
bloode
in
the
inner
parte
,
by
the
mouth
of
the
wounde
,
shal
be
accomplyshed
as
it
foloweth
.
Fyrste
when
the
chirurgien
commeth
to
the
patiente
,
he
muste
consyder
the
sygnes
.
And
when
he
is
certayne
,
he
muste
diligently
serche
meanes
to
cause
the
blood
,
whych
is
in
the
inner
parte
,
to
issue
out
by
the
orifyce
of
the
wound
,
whych
thyng
may
be
brought
to
passe
by
conuenient
situation
of
the
bodye
,
that
is
to
saye
,
that
the
heade
be
layed
downewarde
,
the
feete
beynge
raysed
vp
,
or
that
the
patientlye
vpon
a
bedde
hys
heade
hangynge
downeward
,
leanynge
vpon
some
fourme
or
stoole
lower
then
the
bedde
,
that
the
blood
wyth
in
maye
easely
issue
out
.
He
muste
lye
thus
the
fyrst
daye
.
For
it
is
good
for
two
causes
.
Fyrst
to
purge
the
bloode
that
is
wythin
.
Secondly
that
bloode
&
other
humours
,
the
communly
chaunce
in
woundes
,
fall
not
into
the
bodye
.
And
the
patient
muste
lye
grouelynge
asmuche
as
he
can
,
vpon
the
wounde
.
Some
gyue
certayne
thynges
by
the
mouth
to
cause
the
blood
to
come
forth
,
whyche
thinge
is
very
commendable
,
so
that
the
medicines
be
not
to
sharpe
and
to
stronge
.
Furthermore
it
is
to
be
noted
,
that
if
the
wounde
be
very
large
,
so
that
the
spirites
come
forthe
aboundauntly
,
then
you
muste
sewe
the
sondred
partes
,
leauynge
an
hole
beneth
,
that
the
bloode
,
and
quytture
maye
easelye
issue
out
.
And
after
that
the
bloode
is
issued
,
and
the
wounde
mundifyed
,
you
must
begynne
to
applye
tentes
of
lynte
dypped
in
the
whyte
of
an
egge
,
or
in
wyne
.
And
lette
the
sayde
tentes
be
greate
in
the
outwarde
parte
,
that
they
fall
not
in
,
or
els
tye
them
to
a
threde
that
yf
they
fall
in
,
they
maye
be
drawen
out
agayne
.
Here
it
is
to
be
noted
,
that
ye
must
not
in
any
wyse
laye
vpon
the
wounde
poudre
restrictiue
(
as
Albucasis
sayeth
,
☜
)
for
it
wolde
dryue
matter
towarde
the
herte
,
or
deriue
bloode
,
whyche
myghte
sone
choke
the
patient
.
Item
yf
ye
be
sure
that
there
is
no
bloode
entred
in
by
the
waye
of
the
wounde
,
then
it
shall
be
conuenient
that
ye
sewe
the
wounde
,
and
procede
wyth
thynges
incarnatiue
in
the
fyrst
dayes
.
But
bycause
a
man
can
not
haue
trewe
knowlege
at
the
begynnynge
,
whether
the
bloode
be
entred
or
no
,
it
is
the
surest
waye
to
kepe
the
orifyce
of
the
wounde
open
at
the
begynnynge
,
howe
be
it
the
seconde

ye
shall
putte
in
a
tente

The
fyrste
is
,
that
when

he
must
dresse

,
as
maye

And
the

wounde
lest
the
ayre
enter
in
,
and
yf
it
enter
,
that
it
be
hote
and
not
colde
.
The
seconde
is
the
chirurgien
muste
pronosticate
,
accordynge
to
the
signes
that
he
shal
see
,
that
he
maye
saue
his
name

Neuertheles
the

not
refuse

For

to

cheyfely

The

are
caused
of
cuttynge
thynges
as
by
a

,
or
poynted

as

&c.
Whan
the

he

consyder
the

which

The
sygnes

thies
,

whan

The
sygnes
that
the
small

ben

are
knowen
by
the
place
where
the
wounde
is
,
namelye
whan
the
wounde
is
aboue
the
nauell
.
If
the
wounde
be
benethe

it
is
in

we
haue

of
whyche
the

Wherefore
by
the
place
of

ye
maye
knowe
what

are
hurte

You
maye
knowe
whan
the

,
Of

that

that
issuethe
out

the

hathe

frome
the
sayd
rybbes

the
flanke

by
cause
the
bloode
is
deryued
frome

liuer
all
a

Whan
the
mylte
is

it
is
knowen
by
thys
,
Of

milte
.
that
the
wounde
is
betwene
the
false
rybbes
of
the
lyfte

and
the
bloode
that
issuethe
out

the
wounde
is
grosse
,
Of
kydnes
.
and
verye
blacke
.
The
hurte
of
the
kydnees
is
knowen
by
the
place
,
whan
the
wounde
is
somewhat
lower
than
the
nauell
,
and
the
bloode
also
that
issuethe
oute
is
cleare
,
and
watrishe
.
It
is
to
be
noted
,
that
sometymes
the
woundes
of
the
bellie
not
penetrant
or
persynge
ben
not
wythout
daunger
of
deathe
,
namelye
whan
they
are
aboute
the
nauell

wythin
three
,
or
foure
fyngers
,
bycause
of
the
great
muscles
,
that
are
knytte
to
the
nauell
.
Furtheremore
the
woundes
whiche
are
in
the
hyndre
parte
are
daungerous
,
bycause
of
the
Nuke
,
and
the
synnowes
growyng
out
of
the
same
.
But
the
other
partes
of
the
bellie
,
in
whyche
there
is
a
wounde
not
penetraunt
are
seldon
dangerous
excepte
it
be
thorowe

Lykewyse

penetrante
some
ben
verye
daungerous

as
those
that

the

The

daungerous
of
them
are
those
,
whyche
ben
in
the
former
parte
after
the
length
of
the
bellie
,
bycause
that
the
guttes
,
issue
out
by
the
wounde
more
easely
.
The
cure
.
The
curation
of
the
sayde
woundes
,
shal
be
accomplisshed
by
three
intentions
,
namely
by
the
ordinaunce
of
diete
,
by
euacuation
,
and
by
application
of
conuenient
thynges
.
Concernynge
the
fyrste
intention
,
whan
the
wounde
is
penetraunt
or
not
penetraunt
wythout
hurte
of
the
inner
membres
we
saye
that
the
patiente
muste
vse
the
diete
ordeyned
in
the
former
chapytre
.
Diete
styp●●ke
.
But
yf
the
sayde
wounde
be
wyth
hurte
of
the
inner
membres
,
than
the
patient
muste
vse
stiptyke
thynges
in
hys
meate
,
as
a
brothe
made
wyth
the
iuyce
of

Finally
all
stiptyke
thinges
are
conuenient
in
this
case
.
The
patient
muste
drynke
water
boyled
wyth
the
foresayde
thynges
,
cheifely
at
the
begynnynge
to
auoyde
fieuers

And
whan

,
ye
may
gyue
hym
the
sayde
symples
or
some
of
them
,
for
his
drincke

wyne

water
.
But
yf
he
be
verye
weake
you
maye
gyue
hym
wyne
at
the
begynnynge
,
and
also
confortatiue
thinges
.
The
seconde
intention
shal
be
accomplysshed
,
by
the
purgation
wrytten
in
the
former

whan
the
wounde
perseth

you

The
auncient
doctours
saye

ben
foure
maners

we
wyll
speake
onely
of
two
principall

two
maners

most
vsed

One
is
that
ye
take
only
Mirach
of

parte

leaue
the
pannicle
Siphach
,
and
of
the
other
parte
you
muste
take
bothe
Siphach
,
and
myrach
successiuely
,
one
after
another
vntyll
the
seame
be
ended
.
Thys
maner
is
wrytten
by
Auicenne
in

chapitre

the
cure

the
woundes

The
seconde
is
that

fyrste
only
myrach
,

secondlye
myrach
,

siphach
of
bothe
partes
,
and
so
finyshe

Thyes
two
seames
are
vsed
of
the
later
doctours
,
and
they
ben
more
sure

the
other
,
bycause
myrach

easely

and
than
the

canne
not

whyche
is
a
profytable
thynge

For
whan

that

it

The

Chapitre
of

THe
woundes
of
the
hyppes
muste
be
cured
,
as
the
woundes
of
the
shulders
.
woundes
of
the
hippes
.
For
the
hyppes
ben
synnowie
and
full
of
ligamentes
,
&
great
muscles
,
as
the
shulders
.
wherfore
ye
shal
resorte
to
the
cha.
of
the
same
.
Neuerthelesse
that
ye
maye
haue
a
certayne
doctrine
for
the
cure
of
the
said
woundes
.
we
say
the
therunto
thre
intentions
are
required
.
The
fyrst
is
regiment
of
diete
.
The
seconde
euacuation
of
the
body
.
The
thyrde
consisteth
in
the
application
of
conuenient
thinges
vpon
the
sayd
woundes
.
As
concernynge
the
fyrste
,
and
second
intentions
,
ye
shall
procede
as
it
hath
ben
often
declared
in
the
former
chapiters
.
The
patient
must
abstaine
from
wyne
and
flesh
,
tyl
the
daunger
of
apostemation
be
passed
.
Also
ye
must
cutte
the
veine
called
basilica
,
or
the
comune
veyn
in
the
opposite
syde
.
Item
it
is
conuenient
to
kepe
the
belly
alwaye
soluble
or
loose
by
lenitiue
clysters
.
For
most
comunely
the
sayd
woundes
cause
greate
paynes
,
&
the
mattier
that
is
deriued
to
the
hyppes
engendreth
apostemations
.
Moreouer
at
the
begynnynge
,
ye
maye
gyue
the
patient
a
medicine
minoratyue
de
cassia
,
diacatholicon
,
and
de
electuario
lenitiuo
,
or
of
other
accordynge
to
the
complextion
,
&
strength
of
the
patientes
.
The
thyrde
intention
shall
be
accomplished
by
the
administration
of
local
medicines
.
Fyrst
the
chirurgien
must
consyder
whether
the
wounde
be
depe
or
not
,
large
,
or
strayte
.
For
whan
it
is
depe
,
&
strayte
it
must
be
wisely
enlarged
,
that
the
veynes
,
sinnowes
,
ligamentes
and
muscles
be
not
hurte
.
And
afterward
let
the
wound
be
healed
with
oyle
of
roses
hote
,
&
a
conuenient
digestyue
.
And
laye
aboute
the
wounde
a
defensiue
magistral
,
whych
is
wrytten
in
the
cha.
of
the
woundes
of
the
shulders
.
And
yf
the
wounde
cause
greate
payne
,
ye
shalle
put
in
to
the
wounde
oyle
magistral
of
Hipericon
,
wherof
we
haue
spoken
in
the
former
chapiters
.
Item
to
swage
paine
we
haue
founde
it
good
,
to
vse
an
embrocation
made
of
oyle
of
roses
,
oyle
of
camomylle
,
&
dylle
wyth
the
decoction
of
erth
wormes
.
Lykewise
in
this
case
,
a
plaister
made
wyth
the
cromes
of
breade
and
with
mylke
,
written
in
our
antidotary
is
profitable
.
And
a
plaister
of
sodden
wyne
,
wrytten
in
the
chap.
of
the
woundes
of
the
breste
is
of
the
same
operation
.
After
digestion
,
for
incarnation
,
&
other
intentions
,
ye
shal
procede
after
the
doctrine
wrytten
in
the
sayd
cha.
If
the
wound
be
to
large
,
you
shall
sew
it
conueniently
layeng
a
large
orifice
in
the
nether
part
.
Note
that
these
woundes
muste
be
diligently
cured
,
and
by
a
wyse
chirurgien
,
for
we
se
,
it
often
cometh
to
passe
,
that
through
the
faute
of
the
chirurgien
,
the
patientes
halte
al
theyr
lyfe
longe
.

The

of

THe
woundes

,
woundes
of
the
stones
and
the
yarde
if
it
be
not
through
the
errour
of
the
chirurgien

Neuertheles
bycause
they
are
necessarye
to
generation
,
they
must
be
healed
with
al
diligence
.
To
come
nere
to
our
purpose
,
there
are
required
to
the
cure
of
the
sayde
woundes
thre
intentions
.
And
concernyng
the
fyrst
,
&
seconde
intention
ye
shal
procede
accordyng
to
the
doctrine
of
the
former
cha.
The
third
shal
be
accomplished
by
the
administration
of
locall
medicines
.
Fyrst
yf
the
wound
be
made
after
the
length
of
the
membre
,
ye
muste
ioyne
together
the
sondred
partes
with
a
conuenient
seame
,
&
procede
wyth
thynges
moderately
desiccatyue
.
Also
you
must
digest
the
wounde
,
with
a
digestyue
made
wyth
oyle
of
Roses
&
yolkes
of
egges
,
the
space
of
two
or
thre
dayes
,
layeng
about
the
same
a
digestyue
magistral
ordeyned
in
the
chap.
of
the
cure
of
the
woundes
of
the
adiutorye
.
whan
the
digestion
is
ended
,
ye
shal
mundifie
the
wounde
wyth
a
mundificatyue
of
syrupe
of
roses
,
of
our
description
.
And
yf
nede
be
ye
may
put
a
tent
in
the
lower
parte
that
the
mattier
may
be
purged
the
better
.
After
mundification
,
ye
must
incarne
it
,
adding
to
the
sayd
mundificatiue
a
lytle
aloes
hepatike
,
and
a
litle
sarcocolle
.
And
for
the
sigillation
,
you
maye
conueniently
vse
,
Vnguentum
de
minio
described
in
the
cha.
of
the
fracture
or
breaking
of
the
sculle
.
Ye
shal
procede
lykewise
,
whan
the
wounde
is
made
after
the
breadth
of
the
membre
.
whan
the
wounde
is
caused
by
contusion
or
brusyng
,
it
is
conuenient
that
the
wound
be
digested
a
longer
time
,
bycause
that
euerye
wounde
that
is
made
by
contusion
,
necessarely
cometh
to
putrefaction
.
As
Galene
sayeth
,
oen
vnlnus
.
&c.
For
the
other
intentions
ye
shal
procede
after
the
doctrine
written
in
the
former
chapiters
.
Thus.
&c.
The
.xiiii.
chap.
of
the
woundes
of
the
thyghes
,
and
of
the
legges
,
&
of
theyr
partes
,
with
the
cure
of
the
same
.
woundes
of
the
thighes
,
legges
and
their
partes
.
THe
woundes
of
the
thighes
,
and
legges
muste
be
cured
as
the
woundes
of
the
armes
,
&
of
the
bones
called
adiutoria
.
But
the
pronostications
ben
diuerse
.
For
the
woundes
of
the
thighes
,
and
the
legges
are
more
daungerous
,
than
the
other
,
bycause
of
the
multitude
of
the
great
synnowes
,
veynes
,
muscles
,
chordes
,
and
ligamentes
,
whych
bynde
together
the
ioynctures
.
And
in
the
former
parte
of
the
knee
there
bene
two
synnowes
verye
sensible
,
whyche
descende
from
the
brayne
,
and
whan
they
chaunce
to
be
hurt
,
great
payne
,
and
euyll
accidentes
ensue
,
as
a
spasme
,
a
fieuer
,
aposteme
,
ꝑturbation
of
reason
.
&c.
whiche
oftentimes
bryng
the
patient
to
deth
,
because
of
the
comunion
&
coniunction
that
they
haue
wyth
the
brayne
.
wherfore
Auicenne
sayth
in
the
cha.
of
woundes
that
induce
a
spasme
,
ther
ben
vlcers
in
the
nuke
,
&
vlcers
in
the
higher
part
of
the
knee
.
And
the
lacertes
of
those
partes
been
very
sinnowie
,
&
therfore
the
woundes
induce
a
spasme
&
sodayne
deth
.
Lykewyse
within
the
legge
,
and
without
they
ben
very
daungerous
,
bicause
of
the
gret
veines
,
which
beyng
cut
,
issewe
of
blood
foloweth
.
For
the
staunchyng
wherof
you
muste
resort
to
the
cha.
of
the
fluxe
of
bloude
.
For
the
blood
of
those
partes
can
not
be
easely
restrayned
.
Moreouer
they
are
more
daungerous
,
than
thother
,
bicause
they
bene
lower
,
&
the
higher
membres
sende
humours
to
the
lower
,
that
is
to
say
,
to
the
thyghes
,
and
legges
,
&
cause
often
apostemation
in
the
said
places
,
which
thing
chaunceth
not
in
the
armes
.
And
therfore
it
is
profitable
to
hold
the
membre
eleuate
,
&
lyfted
vp
with
the
rest
of
the
body
.
wherin
the
comune
prouerbe
of
Italians
is
verified
,
namelye
,
Lamano
al
pecto
,
la
gamba
al
lecto
,
that
is
to
say
,
the
hande
on
the
brest
,
the
fote
in
the
bedde
.
Likekewyse
whan
the
wounde
is
vndre
the
knee
,
&
that
the
daunger
of
apostemation
is
passed
,
it
is
expedient
to
bynd
the
legge
,
from
the
foote
to
the
knee
.
For
Guydo
sayeth
,
that
the
diseases
of
the
legges
haue
nothynge
propre
by
them selues
,
and
deferynge
from
other
diseases
of
the
bodye
,
but
byndyng
,
that
the
antecedent
mattier
be
not
deryued
to
the
sore
place
.
To
the
cure
of
the
forsayde
woundes
,
the
intention
alleged
in
the
former
chaptres
,
are
requisyte
.
Concernyng
the
fyrst
and
seconde
intention
,
ye
shall
so
procede
,
as
it
hath
ben
often
sayde
in
the

Chaptre
.
The
thyrde
shal
be
accomplysshed

wherfore
(

there
is
nothyng
better
to

than
to

For

The
.xv.
cha.
of
solution
of
continuite
of
synnowes
and
chordes
.
THe
woundes
of
the
synnowes
(
as
the
doctours
testifye
)
cause
euyll
accidentes
,
woundes
of
sinnowes
and
chordes
.
and
daungerous
diseases
,
bycause
of
their
great
sensibitie
,
or
feling
,
and
bicause
of
the
greate
coniunction
whyche
they
haue
wyth
the
brayne
.
wherfore
they
must
be
diligentlye
cured
,
and
by
a
discrete
chirurgien
.
The
accidentes
and
diseases
that
ensue
thereby
are
these
,
spasmes
,
the
palsy
,
vehement
payne
,
colde
fieuers
,
apostemations
,
perturbation
of
reason
,
watchynges
,
greate
alterations
,
and
great
loethsomnesse
of
meate
.
And
oftentymes
the
woundes
of
the
synnowes
are
apostemed
by
the
way
of
deriuation
of
matteir
,
and
do
cause
of
spasme
without
greate
payne
goyng
before
,
as
Auicenne
teacheth
.
The
cause
of
solution
of
continuite
of
sinnowes
,
maye
chaunce
sondry
waies
,
namely
by
brusynge
thinges
,
as
by
a
stone
,
a
staffe
&c.
or
by
cuttynge
thynges
,
as
by
a
swerde
,
a
kniffe
&c.
And
likewise
by
pointedthinges
,
as
by
a
dagger
,
a
nedle
,
a
nayle
,
an
arow
&c.
And
some
ben
after
the
breadth
with
a
totale
incision
of
the
sinnow
.
Some
with
the
incision
of
halfe
the
synnowe
.
The
woundes
that
ben
made
after
the
length
of
the
membre
&
sinnowes
,
are
not
so
daungerous
,
as
they
that
ben
made
after
the
breadth
.
But
whan
the
sinnowes
ben
halfe
cut
,
the
wound
is
more
daungerous
,
than
whan
the
sinnowes
ben
holy
cut
.
For
Auicenne
sayeth
that
the
hole
parte
of
the
synnow
,
is
hurt
by
the
sore
parte
,
&
thorow
the
vehement
payne
,
there
often
ensueth
spasmes
,
palsies
,
&
other
accidentes
.
And
therfore
it
is
necessary
sontimes
,
for
the
auoydaunce
of
the
sayd
accidentes
,
holly
to
cutte
the
hurted
synnow
.
For
Auicenne
so
teacheth
by
the
auctoritie
of
Galene
.
The
hurtyng
of
sinnowes
,
of
contusion
,
or
brusinge
,
is
harder
to
be
healed
than
the
other
aforesayde
.
The
reason
is
,
bycause
the
maturation
,
digestion
,
&
resolution
can
not
be
finished
in
short
tyme
,
by
reason
of
the
quitture
which
cometh
of
the
contusion
.
Ye
shal
cure
solution
of
continuitie
caused
by
incision
or
cuttyng
,
by
thinges
desiccatyue
.
In
that
,
that
is
caused
by
contusion
,
ye
shal
procede
with
conuenient
digestyues
,
that
ye
may
seperate
and
sondre
the
quitture
from
the
hole
partes
,
that
is
to
say
,
the
part
of
the
hurt
sinnow
,
from
that
,
that
is
not
hurt
.
Further
we
say
that
solution
of
continuitie
of
the
sinowes
caused
by
punction
,
prickynge
or
foynynge
,
is
more
daungerous
than
the
other
caused
of
a
cuttynge
thynge
.
But
amonge
other
,
the
punction
which
breatheth
not
out
,
that
is
to
saye
,
in
whych
the
wounde
is
closed
,
that
the
hurt
membre
can
not
digest
the
humours
deriued
to
the
sore
place
,
is
moost
daungerous
.
whyche
thing
Mesue
testifieth
by
the
auctoritie
of
Galene
,
sayenge
:
a
spasme
foloweth
the
punction
of
the
sinnowes
,
&
chordes
,
chiefly
whan
it
breatheth
not
out
.
And
of
the
same
punction
oftentymes
there
is
produced
a
venomous
aposteme
,
which
by
reason
of
the
continuitie
of
the
synnowe
is
conueyed
to
the
brayn
,
&
causeth
a
spasme
,
&
epilepsia
Somtymes
in
the
place
of
the
punction
there
is
engendred
a
rotten
aposteme
.
For
the
auoydaunce
of
the
said
accidentes
,
Galene
comaundeth
to
open
the
sayde
aposteme
,
and
to
administer
a
medicine
attractiue
of
subtile
substaunce
,
and
desiccatyue
,
whereof
we
wyll
speake
more
playnly
in
thys
present
chapiter
.
To
conclude
touchynge
pronostication
,
we
say
that
al
woundes
about
the
ioynctures
brynge
greate
daunger
of
deathe
.
For
,
bycause
that
the
synnowie
chordes
ben
made
bare
vpon
the
ioyntes
,
they
cause
the
foresayd
accidentes
.
And
they
are
sone
made
bare
,
bycause
they
ben
in
the
ouerparte
of
the
ioynctures
,
whyche
thynge
maye
be
proued
by
Galene
,
and
Auicenne
saynge
,
the
synnowe
is
a
single
membre
,
and
a
right
precious
instrument
,
procreated
of
nature
from
the
brayne
and
the
nuke
the
braynes
vicarye
,
to
giue
felyng
,
and
mouyng
to
the
other
partes
of
the
hole
bodye
.
To
come
to
the
cure
of
thys
solution
of
continuite
of
synnowes
,
The
cure
.
we
say
that
there
are
foure
intentions
required
therunto
.
The
fyrst
apperteyneth
to
diete
.
The
seconde
to
euacuation
of
humours
.
The
thyrde
to
prohibition
,
&
remotion
of
accidentes
,
which
empesche
the
true
cure
.
The
fourth
shal
be
accomplished
by
the
administration
of
diuerse
remedyes
,
accordyng
to
the
diuersitie
of
accidentes
,
whych
communely
chaunce
,
whan
the
synnowes
bene
hurte
.
Concernyng
the
first
intention
,
we
say
that
the
diete
must
be
subtile
,
and
slender
,
at
the
begynnynge
bycause
of
the
sayd
accidentes
.
For
it
is
the
doctrine
of
Auicenne
,
sayenge
:
Dieta
.
&c.
Furthermore
bycause
of
the
accidentes
the
disease
maye
be
called
Peracuta
passio
,
that
is
to
say
a
sharpe
disease
.
And
yf
the
disease
be
sharpe
,
the
diete
must
be
slender
.
wherfore
it
sufficeth
at
the
beginning
to
giue
the
patient
breade
sodden
in
water
,
or
almandes
with
a
litle
sugre
.
His
drincke
maye
be
a
simple
ptisane
,
or
water
boyled
wyth
fyne
sugre
,
or
wyth
a
iuleb
of
violettes
.
And
whan
the
daunger
of
apostemation
is
passed
,
that
is
to
say
,
seuen
daies
after
the
hurte
,
ye
may
giue
the
patient
more
nourishinge
meates
,
as
chickynnes
sodden
with
Laictuce
,
and
other
conueniente
herbes
.
Also
for
hys
dryncke
ye
maye
gyue
him
wyne
of
good
odoure
,
with
sufficient
quantitie
of
sodden
water
.
Thys
diete
is
conuenient
,
to
make
good
incarnation
of
the
hurt
sinnowes
.
And
in
processe
of
tyme
by
lytle
and
lytle
,
the
patient
maye
come
to
his
accustomed
maner
of
eatynge
,
and
drynckynge
.
Concerning
the
seconde
intention
,
whyche
is
conuenient
purgation
,
after
the
disposition
of
the
body
,
we
haue
sufficiently
treated
in
the
chap.
of
the
cure
of
flegmon
,
&
by
the
ayde
of
god
,
we
wil
speake
more
largely
therof
in
the
.ix.
boke
in
a
cha.
appoynted
for
laxatyue
medicines
.
wherunto
ye
shall
resorte
.
But
the
sayd
intention
is
moreouer
accomplished
by
flebotomye
diuersiue
,
whan
the
age
and
strength
consente
therunto
,
and
whan
the
patient
is
of
sanguine
complexion
,
and
also
by
rubbynges
&
ventoses
.
In
the
meane
season
it
is
good
to
kepe
the
bellye
loose
with
clisters
.
we
haue
founde
it
profitable
also
,
to
plunge
the
patientes
legges
,
in
a
decoction
of
thinges
anodine
,
that
is
to
saye
,
whyche
take
awaye
payne
,
chiefly
whan
the
hurt
is
in
the
superiour
partes
.
whan
the
said
hurt
is
in
the
nether
part
,
namely
in
the
legge
,
it
is
conuenient
to
washe
the
armes
wyth
that
decoction
wherof
we
haue
spoken
in
the
cha.
of
the
quynce
.
For
the
sayde
decoction
turneth
away
mattier
,
and
resolueth
gentlely
.
The
thyrde
intention
shal
be
accomplished
as
it
foloweth
.
Firste
ye
shall
note
that
the
accidentes
,
which
happen
by
punction
,
or
hurt
of
the
sinnowes
bene
thre
,
namelye
vehement
payne
,
a
spasme
,
and
perturbation
of
reason
.
And
with
these
many
other
ensue
,
as
fieuers
.
&c
To
auoyde
the
sayde
accidentes
,
it
is
necessarye
to
begynne
by
medicines
,
that
swage
payne
,
and
kepe
of
putrefaction
,
wyth
gentle
attraction
,
as
we
wyll
declare
in
thys
present
cha.
Furthermore
if
the
wounde
be
vndre
the
nauell
,
it
is
good
to
annoynte
the
backe
bone
,
the
flanckes
,
and
the
ioynctures
of
the
legges
.
If
it
be
aboue
the
nauell
,
you
muste
annoynte
the
shulders
,
the
necke
,
and
partes
aboute
the
wounde
.
Oyntment
.
And
that
vnction
defendeth
spasmes
,
and
it
is
after
this
sorte
.
R.
of
oyle
of
camomylle
,
of
oyle
of
dylle
,
of
eche
two
partes
,
of
hennes
grese
one
parte
.
Item
at
the
begynnyng
,
the
patient
must
beware
of
colde
,
for
colde
is
very
hurtful
to
the
synnowes
,
as
Hypocrates
sayth
.
Frigidum
.
&c.
The
fourth
intention
shal
be
accomplyshed
,
as
it
foloweth
.
Fyrste
yf
the
wounde
be
made
with
a
cuttyng
thing
,
and
after
the
lengthe
of
the
membre
,
so
that
the
synnowe
is
discouered
,
you
must
go
about
to
couer
the
same
,
and
that
assone
as
maye
be
wyth
a
conuenient
seame
.
And
afterwarde
ye
shall
procede
with
thinges
deficcatiue
layenge
aboute
the
seame
our
poudre
conseruatyue
of
seames
,
leauyng
an
orifice
in
the
lower
parte
of
the
wounde
.
Also
it
is
good
to
applye
within
the
sayd
orifice
,
a
tent
wyth
a
digestyue
made
of
terebentyne
,
the
yolke
of
an
egge
&
saffran
.
Lykewise
ye
shall
procede
with
vnguentum
basilicum
,
and
with
oyle
magistical
,
wherof
we
wyl
make
mention
in
thys
presente
cha.
And
it
is
very
expedient
to
applye
the
sayde
oyle
in
the
stede
of
the
digestyue
,
vntyll
the
daunger
of
apostemation
be
passed
.
For
the
other
intentions
ye
muste
procede
accordynge
as
it
shal
be
declared
in
thys
present
cha.
Item
if
the
wounde
be
made
accordynge
to
the
breadth
of
the
membre
,
and
the
synnowe
holy
cutte
,
then
you
must
sewe
the
wound
only
in
the
flesshie
parte
wyth
a
depe
seame
.
I
saye
wyth
a
depe
seame
,
that
the
parte
of
the
cutte
sinnowe
may
the
better
be
ioyned
wyth
the
other
parte
.
Howbeit
the
later
doctours
ben
of
sondrye
opinions
,
concernynge
thys
sewing
.
Some
holde
that
a
sinnowe
thorowlye
cutte
,
muste
be
sowed
,
for
hys
restauration
.
And
many
say
that
it
must
not
be
sewed
.
we
affirme
that
they
whyche
holde
that
the
synnowe
muste
be
sewed
,
vnderstode
not
the
text
of
Auicenne
,
on
whych
they
make
theyr
fundation
.
Dinus
Florentinus
,
and
Petrus
de
Argillata
do
proue
with
sufficient
reasons
that
the
synnowes
beynge
cutte
,
ought
not
to
be
sewed
together
.
Theodoryke
sayth
that
Hugo
de
Luca
is
of
the
same
opinion
.
Neuerthelesse
manye
efforce
them selues
to
make
argumentes
to
be
contrarye
,
grounding
them selues
vpon
the
auctoritie
of
Auicenne
,
whych
sayth
.
If
a
synnowe
be
broken
after
lengthe
,
it
is
necessarie
to
sewe
it
,
and
if
it
be
not
sewed
,
it
wyl
not
be
ioyned
together
.
They
vnderstande
,
by
the
sayde
auctoritie
,
that
the
sinnowe
,
and
the
flesh
must
be
shewed
together
,
and
not
the
fleshe
onlye
.
where
in
they
are
deceaued
.
For
you
must
consider
that
yf
the
synnowe
be
prycked
,
it
maye
induce
a
spasme
,
and
the
foresayde
accidentes
.
wherfore
we
conclude
that
it
is
a
gret
deale
better
to
fewe
the
fleshie
,
as
we
haue
declared
.
After
that
the
seame
is
made
,
ye
shall
putte
a
tente
in
to
the
wounde
,
dypped
in
the
oyle
that
shal
be
here
after
declared
.
And
lay
vpon
the
seame
oure
poudre
conseruatyue
of
seames
.
And
vpon
the
wound
,
it
is
conuenient
to
applye
oure
vnguentum
basilicum
,
whereof
we
wyll
speake
more
largely
in
this
present
Chaptre
.
Howbeit
,
the
doctours
saye
:
that
oyle
must
not
be
put
into
the
woundes
of
synnowes
,
yf
there
be
not
gret
necessitie
of
appaysynge
griefe
.
It
is
true
yf
ye
meane
symple
oyle
,
but
not
yf
ye
vnderstande
oyle
compounde
,
as
is
our
oyle
magistral
,
which
oyle
applyed
in
woundes
hath
two
vtilities
,
namelye
it
maketh
medicynes
more
extensible
,
that
is
to
saye
,
to
be
the
better
spred
abrode
with
mitigation
of
grefe
.
Secondly
,
it
taketh
awaye
the
bytynge
and
the
sharpnesse
of
the
woundes
.
Further
ye
shall
note
,
touchynge
the
administration
of
medycynes
of
hurte
synnowes
,
that
at
the
begynnyng
you
must
not
applye
glutinous
or
clammysh
thynges
,
and
which
engendre
flesh
greatly
.
For
as
Haliabas
sayeth
,
we
must
not
incarne
wounded
synnowes
,
vntyll
the
daunger
of
an
hote
aposteme
be
passed
.
Auicenne
affyrmeth
the
same
thynge
,
sayinge
:
si
quando
.
&c.
that
is
to
say
:
that
in
woundes
,
in
which
the
sinnowes
ben
hurt
,
we
must
not
haste
to
make
incarnation
,
but
onely
we
must
go
aboute
to
appayse
griefe
,
and
to
defende
apostemation
,
euaporatynge
the
mattier
with
cloutes
,
and
with
hoote
oyles
,
both
actuallye
,
and
by
propre
vertue
or
nature
,
as
is
the
oyle
of
dyll
,
of
camomyll
,
and
the
oyle
of
roses
complete
mengled
wyth
conuenyent
fattes
,
&
somtyme
with
oyle
of
roses
omphacine
,
whiche
hath
vertue
to
comforte
the
sore
place
.
Item
ye
shall
note
,
that
the
admynistration
of
thynges
moche
repercussyue
is
not
commendable
,
thoughe
many
apply
about
the
wounde
thinges
greatlye
repercussiue
,
to
defende
apostemation
:
but
Auicenne
sayeth
,
that
it
is
better
applye
thynges
euaporatiue
.
And
he
sayeth
moreouer
,
that
the
beste
thynge
that
maye
be
in
the
woundes
of
the
sinnowes
is
vnwasshed
wolle
,
taken
from
betwene
the
legges
of
shepe
,
called
in
latyne
,
lana
succida
,
whiche
hathe
a
propertye
to
kepe
the
mattier
from
descendynge
,
and
whan
it
is
descended
it
euaporateth
the
same
.
Secondly
,
to
swage
payne
,
and
to
defende
apostemation
:
it
is
expedyent
to
applye
a
playstre
resolutiue
wyth
gentle
mollifycation
.
These
thinges
are
good
chefely
whan
the
woundes
ben
large
,
and
whan
the
retaynynge
of
soule
mattier
is
feared
.
And
therefore
Auicenne
hath
ordeyned
in
thys
case
a
playstre
made
wyth
thynges
resolutiue
,
and
mundificatiue
.
And
for
the
punction
or
pryckyng
,
he
hath
ordeyned
a
playstre
of
mayles
wyth
lye
,
and
syrupe
of
vynaigre
called
sirupus
acetosus
.
wherfore
we
must
conclude
,
that
for
the
cure
of
cutte
synnowes
,
it
is
conuenyent
to
procede
with
thinges
resolutiue
,
and
mollificatyue
.
And
for
the
cure
of
synnowes
hurte
by
punction
,
we
must
vse
thynges
desiccatyue
and
resolutyue
,
that
the
humiditie
or
moysture
which
produceth
a
spasme
,
maye
be
resolued
,
chefelye
at
the
begynnynge
.
But
whan
the
punction
is
apostemed
,
and
the
payne
is
vehement
,
than
a
desiccatyue
medycyne
is
not
conuenyent
.
For
it
wolde
retayne
sanious
mattier
in
the
place
,
and
be
an
occasyon
of
the
encrease
of
the
payne
.
wherfore
in
this
case
it
is
better
to
applye
thynges
resolutyue
,
and
mollificatyue
,
wyth
famylier
attraction
.
Here
ye
shall
note
,
☜
that
the
thynges
mollificatyue
,
and
maturatyue
are
daungerous
in
this
case
,
as
Auicenne
testifyeth
by
the
autoritye
of
Galene
,
sayinge
:
that
it
chaunced
that
a
man
was
hurt
with
a
nayle
vpon
the
synnowes
of
the
hande
,
and
a
certayne
vndiscrete
chirurgien
applyed
at
the
begynnyng
a
playstre
incarnatiue
,
and
afterwarde
a
playstre
maturatiue
,
and
mollificatiue
made
of
the
floure
of
wheate
,
and
water
,
&
oyle
.
And
by
this
meane
the
patientes
hande
came
to
putrefaction
,
and
the
seuenth
daye
the
patient
dyed
,
by
reason
of
a
spasme
,
which
came
of
that
putrefaction
.
And
yf
the
chirurgien
had
kept
the
orifice
open
,
and
applied
a
resolutyue
&
desiccatiue
medycyne
with
some
attraction
of
the
subtyle
substaunce
,
the
patient
had
not
dyed
at
that
tyme
.
To
come
to
the
ordinaunce
of
conuenyent
medycynes
in
this
case
,
it
shal
be
expedyent
to
declare
theyr
natures
and
propreties
.
Medicines
for
wounded
synnowes
.
Fyrst
Auicenne
sayeth
:
the
medicine
of
the
woundes
of
synnowes
is
that
,
that
is
of
subtil
partes
,
of
equall
heate
,
of
familyare
attraction
,
and
with
no
stipticitie
,
and
chefely
at
the
begynnyng
,
ye
must
beware
of
stiptike
thynges
,
thoughe
the
sayde
doctour
hath
ordeined
somtymes
hote
thynges
,
and
stiptike
,
as
a
plaistre
of
burned
brasse
,
and
tutia
Lykewyse
he
commaundeth
to
mengle
vynaigre
withe
medicines
of
the
synnowes
,
that
the
vertue
thereof
maye
perce
the
better
.
He
sayth
more
ouer
,
that
you
muste
ioyne
with
the
sayde
medicines
certayne
thinges
of
greate
heate
,
as
euphorbium
,
&
brymstone
,
that
the
medicines
may
descend
to
the
botome
of
the
punction
.
And
bycause
(
as
we
haue
sayde
)
that
great
payne
,
a
spasme
and
apostemes
,
ben
the
accidentes
,
that
happen
in
the
hurt
of
synnowes
,
we
say
,
that
they
are
conuenyent
medicines
,
which
haue
the
forsayde
propreties
,
that
is
to
saye
moderate
heate
,
mitigation
of
payne
,
and
desicccation
to
drye
vp
the
moysture
,
and
to
defende
the
spasme
,
and
putrefaction
of
the
synnowes
caused
by
humiditie
.
The
medicines
moreouer
must
be
subtiliatiue
and
liquide
,
why
the
medicines
subtiliatiue
are
to
be
vsed
.
that
the
vertue
maye
the
sooner
come
to
the
sore
synnowe
.
The
medicynes
also
muste
be
attractiue
with
familiar
attraction
,
why
attractyue
.
that
the
infyxed
mattier
maye
be
drawen
out
without
payne
.
wherefore
the
medycines
hauyng
the
foresayde
vertues
are
suffycient
to
defend
the
foresayde

we

proued

conuenyente

it

¶
The
.xvi.
Chaptre
.
Of
the
cure
of
a
spasme
.
A
Spasme
after
Auicen
is
a
synnowye
disease
,
The
cure
of
spasmes
.
by
the
which
the
lacertes
are
brought
to
the
place
of
theyr
begynning
,
&
are
inobedyent
to
the
verue
motyue
,
so
that
they
can
not
extende
them selues
,
after
the
wyl
of
the
patient
,
vntyll
the
disease
be
remoued
.
And
there
be
.ii.
kyndes
of
a
spasme
namely
a
spasme
proportioned
to
the
matter
,
and
not
proporcioned
.
That
which
is
proportionat
to
the
matter
is
double
,
of
inanicion
and
repletion
.
Howbeit
some
say
that
a
spasme
not
proporcionat
,
chaunceth
sometymes
by
a
cutte
or
foyne
,
sayinge
:
that
the
vertue
is
prycked
and
hurt
by
the
payn
and
solution
of
continuitie
,
chefelye
whan
the
pryck
is
made
by
an
instrument
with
a
small
heed
,
or
by
styngynge
of
venemous
beastes
,
or
by
colde
.
Also
they
grounde
them selues
vpon
Hipocrates
,
which
sayeth
that
colde
byteth
the
skynne
,
and
causeth
payne
,
rygour
,
and
a
spasme
.
But
in
dede
this
chaunceth
seldome
,
and
yf
if
it
chaunce
,
the
spasme
incontinently
becommeth
proportionate
to
the
matter
,
by
repletion
.
wherfore
in
the
cuttynge
or
pryckyng
of
synowes
,
a
spasme
chaunceth
by
replecion
,
by
reason
of
the
vehement
payne
.
For
payn
,
as
Galene
sayth
:
is
as
a
ventose
drawing
mater
to
the
place
by
the
which
the
synnowes
be
hurt
&
replenysshed
,
and
the
sayd
matter
is
conueyed
sometyme
to
the
brayne
,
by
the
sinnowes
.
And
whan
the
brayne
feleth
that
matter
,
it
dryueth
it
backe
agayne
,
by
which
expulsion
the
synnowes
are
fylled
with
the
foresayde
matter
,
and
are
inobedient
to
theyr
accustemed
mouynge
.
And
somtyme
the
spasme
is
throughout
all
the
bodye
,
somtyme
the
spasme
is
caused
by
putrefaction
,
for
whan
the
hurted
synnowes
come
to
putrefaction
,
a
venimous
matter
ascendeth
to
the
brayne
,
and
whan
the
brayne
feleth
the
sayd
venenositie
,
it
forceth
it selfe
to
resiste
the
same
,
and
whan
it
can
not
resist
it
,
a
spasme
is
caused
,
through
the
venemous
qualitie
,
and
not
by
reason
of
the
multitude
of
it
.
And
therfore
we
haue
often
sene
,
this
spasme
to
be
caused
,
through
the
coniunction
of
the
synnowes
,
as
good
Mesue
testifyeth
,
by
the
auctoritie
of
Galene
,
saying
:
a
spasme
foloweth
the
pryckyng
of
the
synnowes
or
cordes
,
&
properly
whan
the
foyne
or
prycking
hath
no
respiration
,
for
sontimes
ther
is
caused
vpon
the
foine
a
venimous
reume
,
whiche
throughe
the
venemous
fume
,
ascendynge
to
the
brayne
causeth
a
spasme
or
epilepsia
.
And
some
tyme
there
chaunceth
a
rotten
aposteme
in
the
place
of
the
foyne
,
and
than
Galene
comaundeth
to
open
the
place
of
the
foine
,
and
to
cut
the
sinnow
throughly
a
sondre
,
for
the
auoydaunce
of
the
euyl
accidentes
.
wherfore
to
conclude
,
we
may
vnderstande
by
the
auctoctoritie
of
Galene
,
that
in
a
maner
al
wayes
,
a
spasme
is
caused
throughe
repletion
,
and
therefore
the
cure
of
a
spasme
,
is
lyke
to
the
cure
of
a
palsie
:
that
is
to
saye
,
with
sharpe
clystres
,
with
bathes
of
warme
water
,
and
wyth
drye
bathes
made
with
thynges
that
comfort
the
brayne
,
and
the
nuke
,
and
that
whiche
dryeth
vp
the
moysture
that
causeth
the
spasme
.
Item
the
linimentes
written
in
the
Chaptre
of
the
cure
of
the
palsye
,
are
conuenyent

For
the
cure
whereof
we
saye
that
two
intentions
are
requisyte
.
The
fyrst
is
the
maner
to
drawe
out

forsayd
thinges
.
The
seconde
to
cure
the
woundes
after
the
instrumentes
ben
drawen

.
Touchyng
the
fyrst
intention
a
discrete
Chirurgien
,
muste
consyder
the
place
where
the
arow
is
fyxed
in
.
For
yf
the
arow
stycke
in
a
fleshie
membre
as
in
the
arme
,
the
thygh
,
or
legge
hauyng

,
&

wounde
be
depe
,
it
is
not
in
conuenient
to
make
the
arowe
perce
thorough
on
that
other
syde
,
and
so
to
be
drawen
out
.
For
by
reason
of
the
barbes
,
the
arowe
canne
not
be
drawen
back
,
without
tearyng
of
much
fleshe
,
and
many
veynes
and
pannycles
,
and
perchaunce
in
the
drawynge
out
,
the
heade
shuld
remayne
behynde
,
which
shulde
be
a
very
daungerous
thynge
,
but
yf
the
heade
remayne
within
,
and
the
mouthe
be
so
streat
,
that
it
can
not
be
drawen
out
wyth
an
instrumente
,
made
after
the
fashion
of
a
Cranes
becke
,
than
ye
muste
cutte
the
place
,
euen
vnto
the
arowe
heade
,
and
ye
shal
procede
after
the
same
maner
yf
it
stycke
in
the
bone
.
Note
here
that
the
soner
ye
make
incisyon
,
the
better
it
is
,
for
auoydās
of
apostemation
.
The
cause
is
this
.
Whan
a
blody
freshe
wound
is
cutte
,
the
place
is
not
yet
altered
with
vehement
payne
,
nether
apostemed
with
humours
ariued
to
the
sore
place
,
and
therfore
yf
it
may
be
done
without
the
hurte
of
synnowes
and
veynes
,
it
is
better
that
incision
be
made
spedelye
,
than
whan
the
place
is
peynfull
and
apostemed
.
After
the
incision
is
made
the
arowe
must
be
drawen
,
out
with
the
foresaid
instrumentes
,
as
sone
as
maye
be
,
and
afterwarde
,
ye
muste
powre
vpon
the
place
,
twise
a
daye
hote
oyle
myngled
with
the
yolkes
of
egges
.
There
be
some
doctours
which
commaunde
to
mollifie
the
place
,
where
the
arow
or
thorne
stycketh
the
space
of
.iij.
or
.iiij.
dayes
,
with
oyle
of
roses
hote
layenge
there
on

,
before
ye
come
to
the
drawyng
out
,
or
cuttyng
out
,
of
the
sayd
arowes
or
thornes
.
But
suerlie
they
worke
vnwysely
,
for
the
place
at
that
tyme
is
paynfull
,
and
full
of
humours
,
&
is
not
so
at
the
begynning
.
And
therfore
the
place
must
be
lightened
and
not
altered
and
payned
.
The
curation
of
thornes
,
nayles
,
and
peces
of
woode
,
remaynnynge
in
the
wounde
is
lyke
to
the
cure
aforesayd
.
Neuertheles
I
thynke
thys
one
thyng
worthie
to
be
remembred
,
that
we
haue
drawen
out
a
thorne
,
which
had
caused
putrefaction
,
puttyng
into
the
wounde
a
tente
,
whyche
myght
touche

the

closed
vp
,
that
quytture
beyng
engendred
in
them
,
can
in
no
wyse
issue
out
.
And
it
is
often
tymes
the
cause
,
why
the
euyll
is
encreased
and
daungerous
accidens
induced
.
To
resist
this
inconueniens
it
is
necessary
to
enlarge
the
wounde
,
otherwise
it
may
easely
grow
to
an
holow
&
fistulose
vlcere
,
&
therfore
Auicenne
commaundeth
,
that
as
sone
as
it
is
possible
,
the
wounde
be
opened
and
enlarged
.
As
for
the
curation
therof
,
ye
shal
haue
recourse
to
the
chapitres
of
other
woundes
.
Lykewyse
yf
the
wound
be
caused
by
contusyon
or
brusyng
,
ye
shal
peruse
the
Chapitre
of
the
woundes
caused
by
the
said
contusion
.
And
forasmuche
as
oftentymes
the
woundes
are
with
apostemation
,
for
the
cure
thereof
ye
shall
resort
to
the
chapter
of
woundes
hauynge
apostemation
.
For
the
wounde
can
not
be
healed
,
except
the
aposteme
be
first
remoued
,
&
it
must
be
remoued
without
paine
,
which
thing
is
accomplished
,
by
the
administration
of
medicines
that
drie
&
coole
with
mollification
.
And
Auicenne
sayth
,
that
the
application
of
a
plaister
made
wyth
a
pomegranade
,
sodden
in
small
wyne
,
stamped
and
strayned
,
is
good
in
all
woundes
which
haue
apostemation
,
and
in
all
partes
of
mannes
bodye
.
Furthermore
ye
shall
consyder
the
complexion
or
qualitie
of
the
aposteme
,
that
is
to
saye
,
whether
it
be
vndimia
(
which
neuertheles
chaunceth
not
often
in
this
case
)
or
herisipelas
,
or
phlegmon
.
For
Herisipelas
is
otherwyse
cured
than
Phlegmon
,
wherfore
yf
the
wounde
haue
the
aposteme
of
Herisipelas
,
it
must
be
cured
with
the
cure
of
Heresipelas
.
And
lyke
maner
must
be
obserued
in
other
.
Thus
we
ende
.
&c.
¶
The
.xx.
chapi.
of
the
maner
of
byndynge
woundes
and
vlcers
.
Of
Ligature
or
byndynge
of
woundes
or
vlceres
.
AFter
the
doctryne
of
the
auncient
writers
,
ther
be
thre
maners
of
bindinges
.
The
fyrst
is
called
ligatura
incarnatiua
,
which
is
good
in
woundes
&
broken
bones
,
whan
intention
is
to
ioyne
the
loosed
partes
together
.
The
seconde
is
called
ligatura
expulsiua
,
and
is
conuenient
in
holowe
vlceres
,
that
the
mater
maye
be
drawen
out
toward
the
mouth
of
the
wounde
.
The
thyrd
is
called
retentiue
,
and
it
reteynethe
the
medicyne
in
the
sore
place
,
and
is
comen
to
woundes
,
vlceres
and
breakynges
of
bones
.
The
byndynge
called
incarnatiue
,
Byndyng
incarnatiue
.
muste
thus
be
administred
.
Firste
ye
must
haue
a
bande
,
rolled
in
at
bothe
endes
&
begynne
beneith
to
wrappe
the
sore
membre
bryngynge
the
bande
by
lytle
&
lytle
,
vnto
the
wounded
place
and
a
lytle
forther
straynyng
it
a
litle
.
And
note
,
that
one
of
the
partes
of
the
bande
must
go
vp
,
&
the
other
downe
,
rydyng
one
vpon
an
other
,
and
takyng
as
muche
of
the
partes
lyeng
about
,
as
shall
seme
expedient
.
And
ye
muste
strayne
the
bande
more
strongly
vpon
the
wounde
than
in
other
places
.
Howbeit
ye
must
nat
strayne
it
to
moch
,
for
that
might
cause
apostemation
,
and
lykewyse
ye
must
auoyde
to
much
losenes
,
for
otherwyse
the
byndyng
shuld
not
be
of
good
operation
.
Whan
ye
haue
thus
wrought
as
it
is
aforesayd
ye
must
sowe
the
heades
or
endes
of
the
bande
.
Thys
is
Galenes
inuencion
in
.vj.
therapeutices
.
To
the
same
intention
,
the
bynding
of
the
woundes
in
the
face
wrytten
in
the
chapitre
of
the
sayde
woundes
in
the
face
,
is
conuenient
.
The
seconde
kynde
of
bynding
called
ligatura
expulsiua
,
Expulsiue
byndynge
.
is
done
with
a
bonde
onlye
bounde
at
one
head
.
And
ye
muste
begynne
to
bynde
frome
the
ende
of
the
sore
membre
,
straytlye
at
the
fyrst
.
And
whan
ye
come
to
the
sore
place
,
you
muste
slacke
it
somewhat
that
the
corruption
may
issew
out
of
the
place
.
The
thyrd
kynde
of
bynding
called
ligatura
retentiua
,
Retentiue
byndynge
.
whiche
is
profytable
to
retayne
the
medicynes
vpon
the
places
,
where
ye
canne
not
vse
the
foresayd
maners
of
byndynge
:
As
in
the
necke
,
in
the
belly
,
and
in
the
face
,
and
vpon
paynfull
Apostemes
.
In
thys
kynde
,
I
saye
,
the
bandes
muste
be
large
,
and
longe
,
and
of
softe
lynen
cloth
.
And
here
in
it
is
necessarye
,
to
haue
sene
the
workynge
of
an
experte
Chirurgien
.
It
auayleth
also
,
as
Galene
saith
,
to
haue
the
knowlege
of
situation
of
membres
.
Thus
we
ende
thys
present
chapytre
.
&c.
¶
The
.xxj.
chapytre
of
medicynes
incarnatiue
or
that
engendre
Fleshe
.
of
medicynes
incarnatiue
.
ALbeit
that
we
haue
sufficiently
declared
in
the
chapi.
of
fleshy
woundes
,
medicynes
incarnatiue
:
neuerthelesse
,
that
ye
maye
haue
a
more
serten
knowlege
therof
.
I
thought
it
good
,
to
make
an
especyall
chapytre
of
the
sayde
medicynes
incarnatiue
.
Fyrste
we
saye
,
by
the
auctoritie
of
Auicenne
that
,
that
is
an
incarnatiue
medicyne
whyche
hath
vertue
to
congele
and
make
thycke
good
bloode
in
the
flesshe
.
And
that
is
brought
to
passe
,
by
medicynes
that
haue
power
to
drye
in
the
fyrst
degre
,
or
in
the
begynnynge
of
the
seconde
degre
.
For
yf
the
medicyne
be
to
muche
desiccatiue
,
it
wyll
let
the
bloode
to
comme
down
to
the
place
.
And
so
the
flesshe
shal
not
haue
mattyer
,
wherwyth
it
maye
be
encreased
.
Lykewyse
yf
it
scoure
to
muche
,
it
wyl
make
the
bloode
to
runne
to
fast
,
and
so
consume
the
mattier
that
shuld
engendre
fleshe
.
Wherefore
a
medicyne
incarnatiue
,
muste
be
of
suche
qualytie
,
that
it
maye
conserue
the
complexion
of
the
sore
membres
.
For
Galene
sayeth
,
that
we
muste
kepe
the
course
of
nature
whyle
it
contynueth
.
And
agayne
whan
it
is
lost
,
we
muste
restore
it
.
And
the
foresayd
medicines
,
worke
cheiflye
by
the
nature
and
vertue
of
the
membre
.
And
therfore
we
muste
consydre
,
the
nature
and
qualitie
of
the
membre
.
For
somme
ben
moyst
,
and
some
ben
drye
.
The
drye
,
requyre
drye
thinges
,
and
the
moyste
,
moyste
thynges
.
For
moyst
membres
are
not
preserued
by
dryenesse
,
but
are
destroied
therwith
al.
For
,
as
Galene
sayth
,
hote
bodyes
,
wyll
haue
hote
remedyes
,
and
drye
bodyes
,
drye
remedyes
.
&c.
Whyche
thynge
muste
be
vnderstande
concernynge
the
naturall
complexion
of
the
membre
,
and
not
concernynge
the
disease
.
For
as
a
disease
touchynge
hys
curation
desyreth
hys
contrary
,
so
a
member
desyreth
his
lyke
.
So
it
foloweth
,
that
in
woundes
of
moyst
membres
,
☜
we
muste
vse
moyst
medicynes
,
that
the
nature
or
complexion
of
the
membre
,
be
not
destroyed
.
Neuerthelesse
we
muste
note
,
that
a
medicyne
incarnatiue
ought
to
be
lesse
drye
in
a
temperate
bodye
,
than
in
a
body
vntemperate
in
his
qualitees
.
And
therfore
we
sayd
in
the
chap.
of
flesshie
woundes
,
that
drie
,
strong
,
and
thicke
bodyes
&
membres
,
for
the
incarnacion
of
theyr
woundes
,
require
greater
exciccation
or
dryenge
,
than
tender
bodyes
or
membres
.
For
whan
woundes
happen
in
tender
bodies
,
the
incarnatiue
may
not
exceade
the
first
degree
of
drynesse
:
but
in
drye
and
stronge
bodyes
,
the
incarnatiue
medicyne
must
be
in
the
begynnyng
of
the
seconde
degree
.
Wherfore
we
conclude
that
a
medicyne
incarnatiue
muste
be
dyuers
,
accordynge
to
the
dyuersitie
of
bodyes
and
membres
.
For
the
same
medicyne
,
is
drye
in
the
fyrste
degree
in
one
bodye
,
and
moyste
in
another
.
And
therfore
it
engendreth
fleshe
in
one
,
and
corruption
in
another
.
And
therfore
Galene
sayeth
expressely
,
that
fanckincense
is
drye
in
the
fyrst
degre
,
in
respecte
of
a
temperate
bodye
.
For
in
a
temperate
bodye
,
it
engendreth
fleshe
.
And
that
onely
bycause
it
preserueth
the
complexion
of
the
membre
,
and
dryeth
the
superfluous
moystnes
,
that
hyndreth
the
generation
of
fleshe
.
which
thynge
chaunceth
not
in
a
drye
body
,
for
therin
it
engendreth
not
flesh
,
but
quytture
:
because
it
is
moyst
in
respect
of
the
same
.
And
therfore
Galene
,
numbryng
medicines
incarnatiue
,
declareth
sundry
medicines
simple
in
complexion
.
As
frankincense
,
barley
floure
,
beane
floure
,
and
floure
of
orobus
,
floure
delice
,
tutia
,
climia
,
aristologia
and
the
plante
of
oppoponax
.
And
he
declareth
some
incarnatiues
compounde
in
complexion
as
mirre
,
sarcocolle
,
sanguis
draconis
.
Wherfore
it
foloweth
,
that
a
medicine
to
engendre
fleshe
,
muste
in
dryenesse
excede
the
naturall
dryenesse
of
the
membre
.
But
where
as
we
sayd
before
,
by
the
auctoritie
of
Galene
,
that
a
medicine
incarnatiue
,
must
be
of
such
drynes
,
that
it
maye
preserue
the
complexion
of
the
membre
.
It
is
true
,
yf
ye
vnderstande
it
absolutly
,
that
is
to
say
the
membre
alone
:
But
it
muste
moreouer
,
haue
vertue
and
power
,
to
heale
the
dysease
.
For
a
medicine
,
muste
be
of
such
power
,
that
may
not
alonly
conserue
the
complexion
therof
,
but
also
dystroye
dysease
.
Also
where
as
we
sayd
,
that
a
membre
is
conserued
by
his
lyke
,
as
moist
membres
,
by
moyst
thynges
:
we
saye
,
that
it
is
true
,
yf
ye
vnderstande
conseruation
only
:
but
yf
ye
haue
respecte
to
the
cure
of
the
dysease
,
ye
must
not
only
administer
thinges
lyke
,
but
ye
shal
also
administer
thynges
,
that
both
conserue
the
naturall
complexion
of
the
membre
,
and
destroye
the
dysease
.
Wherfore
seynge
the
moystnes
,
is
contrary
to
generation
of
fleshe
in
woundes
,
ye
must
administer
such
drye
thinges
,
that
besyde
the
natural
conseruation
of
the
membre
,
it
maye
also
drye
vp
the
moystnesse
of
the
wounde
.
Thus
to
conclude
we
saye
that
a
medicine
incarnatiue
,
euen
in
moyst
bodies
ought
to
be
of
a
drie
complexion
.
Further
more
ye
shal
note
thys
one
thynge
,
touchynge
the
incarnation
of
woundes
,
that
ye
muste
maynteyne
the
natural
complexion
of
the
membre
,
&
the
nature
of
the
bodie
.
Which
thyng
Galene
wytnesseth
sayenge
:
that
nature
is
the
worker
&
the
phisition
or
chirurgie
is
the
minister
.
For
the
generation
of
fleshe
,
wythout
the
helpe
of
nature
is
against
the
operation
of
the
same
.
And
therfore
it
is
very
necessarye
,
that
the
pacient
be
fedde
,
with
meates
that
engendre
good
blood
.
And
to
thys
our
purpose
,
sayeth
Auicenne
in
the
chapitre
of
a
fleshie
wounde
,
when
thou
haste
kept
the
complexion
of
the
membre
,
take
good
hede
that
nothynge
be
drawen
thervnto
,
but
blood
that
is
naturall
.
And
here
in
are
two
thynges
to
be
noted
.
Fyrst
that
the
incarnatiue
medecines
be
of
that
complexion
,
that
the
membre
is
of
,
so
that
they
shall
not
be
able
to
drawe
vnto
the
member
,
any
thynge
but
naturall
bloode
,
&
that
as
well
in
qualitie
,
as
in
quantity
,
for
the
bloode
that
is
noysome
other
in
qualitie
or
quantitie
,
doeth
hynder
the
growynge
of
fleshe
in
the
wounde
,
as
sayeth
Galien
in
the
thyrde
and
fourth
bokes
de
ingenio
sanitatis
,
and
as
Auicenne
sayeth
:
take
hede
that
nothynge
be
drawen
to
the
member
,
but
only
natuturall
bloode
.
And
this
shal
ye
do
yf
ye
defende
the
member
that
no
antecedente
matter
of
the
bodye
come
to
it
,
&
cause
payne
with
apostemation
in
the
place
,
and
chaunge
the
membre
from
his
natural
complexion
.
And
thus
doynge
,
there
shal
come
only
natural
bloode
vnto
the
membre
.
And
thus
it
foloweth
that
the
medecines
incarnatiue
,
shal
haue
theyr
operation
in
regendringe
of
fleshe
,
&
closynge
vp
of
the
woundes
.
And
thys
is
the
mynde
of
Auicen
,
to
let
the
comming
of
euel
blood
,
and
of
contrary
humours
,
as
it
is
sayd
in
the
place
before
alleged
:
the
stoppyng
of
bloodynes
&
watrines
.
&c.
It
is
also
to
be
noted
,
that
these
incarnatiue
&
sigillatiue
medecines
of
woundes
,
&
vlceres
ought
not
to
be
administred
within
,
afore
that
the
sores
be
mundifyed
,
&
the
woundes
digested
,
as
the
cause
shal
requyre
.
For
,
as
Auicenne
sayeth
,
capitulo
de
nascentia
carnis
in
vlceribus
:
there
maye
be
no
incarnatiue
layed
to
the
vlcere
,
tyll
it
be
very
perfytly
mundifyed
,
and
that
ther
be
brought
vnto
it
,
the
nouryshment
,
that
is
gentel
&
naturall
bloode
,
wherby
nature
wyth
the
incarnatiue
medecine
,
doth
engender
blood
,
bothe
in
vlceres
&
woundes
.
And
afterwarde
he
sayeth
:
when
that
the
euel
fleshe
&
rotten
matter
are
expelled
,
them
may
ye
laye
to
the
member
no
bytyng
medicine
,
nor
clensyng
with
any
strength
,
in
what
place
so
euer
the
woundes
be
.
Therfore
it
is
plain
that
an
incarnatiue
medecine
,
at
the
leste
wyse
,
in
freshe
woundes
,
must
be
voide
from
al
vehement
clensing
&
mordication
.
But
in
vlcers
,
for
bycause
as
Galen
sayeth
,
there
be
euer
.ij.
maner
of
matters
in
them
,
the
one
subtil
or
thynne
,
&
the
other
thycke
.
It
is
moste
conuenient
,
that
the
medecine
incarnatiue
,
haue
in
hym
also
some
nature
of
scouring
,
&
thus
by
the
reason
that
the
medicine
drieth
,
it
shal
consume
the
subtyl
or
thynne
matter
,
&
by
the
reason
of
his
abstertion
,
it
shal
be
able
to
purge
away
the
grosse
matter
.
Now
that
we
haue
treated
of
the
incarnatiue
medecines
,
&
sigillatiue
in
what
degree
of
here
they
ought
to
be
,
that
is
to
saye
accordyng
to
the
diuersitie
of
the
bodies
,
&
complexion
of
the
membres
.
I
thinke
it
very
profytable
,
to
set
forth
certeyne
receptes
of
incarnatiues
,
&
haue
deuided
them
into
thre
sortes
.
The
fyrst
,
shal
be
somewhat
weake
in
operation
,
the
.ij.
meane
,
the
laste
shal
be
of
greate
strength
&
power
.
The
fyrst
,
is
to
be
occupied
in
the
woundes
of
a
tender
persone
,
the
.ij.
is
for
woundes
of
a
stronge
body
of
drye
complexion
,
the
.iij.
is
in
al
maner
of
woundes
&
sores
,
where
ye
wyll
haue
the
fleshe
to
growe
vpon
the
bone
.
And
thus
it
is
playne
that
a
medecine
incarnatiue
is
necessary
to
be
not
onely
,
drye
in
the
fyrst
degre
,
but
also
in
the
.ij.

.iij.
&
we
haue
an
example
of
the

as
the
doctours
say
,
doth
incarnate
the
bones
,
&
for
al
that
it
is
drye
in
the
.iij.
degre

to
be

this

The

chap.
of
the
maner

qualitie
of
tentes

.
Of
tentes
lyn●●s
&
bolsters
IT
is
euidente
that
to
the
curation
of
woundes
,
&
vlceres
,
the
knowlege
of
adnistryng
tentes
,
&
bolsters
,
is
necessarie
,
and
therfore
we
wyll
briefly
speake
therof
.
Fyrst
we
saye
that
bolsters
must
be
applyed
in
hollowe
vlcers
,
chiefely
in
those
places
that
can
not
wel
be
bounde
,
as
in
the
dugges
,
the
flanckes
,
vnder
the
arme
holes
,
in
the
necke
,
and
other
partes
of
the
bodye
,
some
bene
quadrate
,
some
triangulare
or
threcorned
,
some
be
of
hurdes
of
flaxe
,
some
of
cotton
,
and
some
of
lynte
,
whych
are
the
best
.
And
these
are
applyed
,
sometymes
dypped
in
some
liquour
,
sometymes
drie
.
In
breakynges
of
bones
,
they
are
applyed
beynge
dypped
in
the
whyte
of
egges
mengled
wyth
oyle
of
roses
,
whych
thynge
is
conuenient
for
the
conseruation
,
&
confortation
of
the
bones
restored
into
theyr
places
,
&
that
wyth
out
payne
,
and
apostemation
.
Sometymes
they
are
dypped
in
water
of
roses
and
vynegre
,
to
kepe
the
membres
from
vehemente
heate
.
Item
it
is
profitable
somtimes
,
to
dyppe
them
in
the
wyne
of
a
decoction
of
roses
,
,
of
wormemoode
,
sticados

squinantum
,
of
the
nuttes
of
cypresse
,
of
the
floures
of

,
that
they
maye
comforte

,
and
that
they
maye
helpe
to
brynge
the
quytture
towarde

mouth
of

vlcers
.
Some
moreouer
vse
bolsters
made
of
fethers
,
or
cotton
,
&
applye
them
drye
,
and
they
ben
good
to
preserue
the
naturall
heate
of
the
membre
.
Item
oftentymes
bolsters
be
made
of
a
flatte
sponge
,
&
sometymes
of

or
hurdes
of
flaxe
,
to
drynke

&
to
purge
the
quytture
of

,
and

.
Tentes
are

causes
.
Fyrst
to

.
Secondly
,
to

,
that

whych
hyndred
the
sayde
generation
.
And
they
are
profytablye
applyed
in
woundes
caused
by
contusion
,
or
brusynge
,
and
in
woundes
apostemed
,
and
altered
thorough

softe
cloutes
well

Some

A

Item
some

administred
,
but
aboue
all

tentes
made

Of
sowynge
of

.
THe
chirurgiens
vse
dyuers
maners
of
seames
to
ioyne
sondrye
places
together
,
of
whych
one
is
called
the
skynners
seame
,
whyche
is
good
in
the
woundes
of
the
guttes
.
Ther
is
an
other
kynde
to
ioine
together
the
lyppes
of
the
mouth
,
&
for
other
parts
in
which
we
feare
that
they
can
not
be
conserued
by
reason
of
the
tendernes
of
the
same
.
The
threde
must
be
wounde
about
the
nedle
,
as
taylours
&
semsters
sticke
ther
nedles
in

There
is
moreouer
an

whych
is
commen
to
all

&
is
muche
vsed

&
it
is
after
thys
sorte
.
Ye
muste
take
the

sydes
of
the
wounde
,
depely
or
superficially
,
after
the
qualitie
of
the
wounde
,
&
dysposition
of
the
membres
,
(
for
in
fleshy
members
,
the
wounde
beyng
depe
,
a
depe
seame
must
be
made
,
but
when
the
wounde
is
in
synowy
places
,
the
seame
muste
not
be
depe
,
lest
the
synowe
be
prycked
.
)
And
when
the
seame
is
made
,
ye
must
tye
the
thredes
,
or
make
a
knot
&
cut
the
sayde
threade
,
wythin
a
fynger
breade
of

of

,
&
leaue
a
mouth
in
the
nether
parte
of
the
seame
,
that
the
matter
may
be
purged
therby
.
By
the

of

of

bycause
they
