is (as I gat her of Galen in diuers places) a tumore against nature,* 1.2 and an affecte of harde and thicke partes. (Whiche yet to take, the lyuer & the splene are moste readye) harde, without peyne, and sometyme without sense. Whose fyrste cause sayeth he, in his booke of tumores against nature, is double: as of grosse & toughe phlegme, and of the dregges of bloud. Whiche also is double, wherof the one doth Hip∣pocrates call blacke: The other also is blacke, but proper∣ly called blacke choler. And in his fifth booke of symple me∣dicines, he affirmeth it to sprynge of colde and grosse hu∣mores:* 1.3 as of melancholy, or of grosse and viscous phlegme, (ouermuche dryed, and impacte in the pores of the skynne) or of bothe: and chanceth often by ignorance, (throughe the vse of vehement byndyng and coolyng thynges,)* 1.4 to inflam∣mations, and Ignibus sacris. If it come of phlegme, it hathe some obscure sense, & is curable with mollificatiues, though hardly: but that whiche commeth of melancholyke iuyce, is cancrous (the partes affected vtterly without sense,) and vncurable: and is by mollyficatiues exasperate.
And as the pure Scirrhus, made of melancholy, maye in mixtures receyue any of the other three humores:* 1.5 so may it in name variably chāge, and be called of phlegme 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉,* 1.6 Id est Scirrhus oedematosus, Of bloude 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉, Hoc est inflamationis consors,* 1.7 or of choler, and is named 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉, quasi ignitae rubedinis, uel sacriignis particeps.
