CHAP. XL. Of the wounds of the Ligaments.
THe wounds of the Ligaments, besides the common manner of curing these * 1.1 of the Nerves, have nothing peculiar, but that they require more powerfull medicines, for their agglutination, desiccation and consolidating; both be∣cause the Ligamentall parts are harder, and dryer, and also for that they are voyd of sence. Therefore the foresaid cure of Nerves and joynts may be used for these wounds: for the medicines in both are of the same kinde, but here they ought to be stronger and more powerfully drying. The Theorie and cure of all the symptomes which shall happen thereupon have beene expressed in the Chapter of curing the wounds of the nervous parts, so that heere we shall neede to speake nothing of them, for there you may finde as much as you will. Wherefore here let us make an end of wounds, and give thankes to God the author and giver of all good for the happy pro∣cesse of our labours, and let us pray that, that which remaines may be brought to a happy end, and secure for the health and safety of good people.
