CHAP. VIII. Of Long Feavers.

Sect. 2. Aph. 25.

QUartan Agues beginning in the Summer, are usually short, but Autumnal are long, espe∣cially if they continue until winter.

Sect. 2. Aph. 28.

It is an ill signe when bodies exercised with strong Feavers do stand at a stay, and are nothing diminished, or wasted, or else are extremely and beyond reason wasted by the Disease; for the one signifies a long continuance of the Disease, the other the weaknesse of the Patient.

Sect. 3. Aph. 16.

Daily showres, do cause Diseases for the most part, as of long Feavers, fluxed, putrid Fea∣vers,

the falling sicknesse, apoplexies and squi∣nancies. But great droughts do cause Consump∣tions, sore eyes, pains of the Joynts, droppings of the Urine, and excoriation of the bowels.

Sect. 3. Aph. 27.

Moreover to those of riper years, about the fourteenth year of their age, many of the for∣mer Diseases and continual Feavers and Hoemor∣rhagies, or issuing of blood out of their nose, are incident.

Sect. 4. Aph. 36.

Sweats in Feavers are beneficial if they begin upon the third, fifth, seventh, ninth, eleventh, fourteenth, seventeenth, one and twentieth, seven and twentieth, thirtieth, or four and thir∣tieth dayes, for such sweats are criticall and ju∣dicatory. But sweats which do not express them∣selves upon some of the aforenamed dayes, sig∣nifie the long continuance of the Feaver, and the reversion thereof.

Sect. 4. Aph. 44.

Small tumors or pains of the joynts grow upon such bodies, which have had long Feavers.

Sect. 4. Aph. 51.

Such Feavers which do intermit, if they are not dissolved within few Crises at the beginning, signifie a prolonging of the Di∣sease.

Sect. 4. Aph. 53.

Those Feavers are most vehement, where∣in clammy or gluttinous humours by rea∣son of the Feaver, groweth to the Teeth of the Sick.
