Culpeper.
I am far enough from Galens Opinion in this, I can∣not beleeve the Sight is stronger in Gray Eyes than in Black, but rather the contrary, neither am I of his Judgment of the causes of the differences in colour; If you look upon the Microcosm or Body of Man, I hold the cause to be in the Iris; if you look upon the Macro∣cosm or Book of the Creatures, we find fiery Signs ari∣sing at the Nativity to give Hazel Eyes which are those he here calls black, and so doth either Luminary when they are in the Horoscope, and I hope none is so Fool-ridden to say the Luminaries strong in the Ascendent, can or do ever give weak Sights.
Again, I do not conceive the Aqueal Humor to be the cause of the moistness of the Eye, the Aqueal Hu∣mor is an Excrement produced by the Vitrial or Glassy Humor as it nourisheth the Christalline, and never stirs from its plac•• to moisten the other parts of the Eye, but rather the Glandulae or Kernel seated in that corner of the Eye next the Nose, which hold the tears, I suppose moistens the eye.
