Chap. 30. Signs of the Heart too cold.

IF the Heart be too cold, the Pulses are less than N••∣turally they ought to be, and yet it doth not necessa∣rily follow, that they should be slower or more ta••e, the Breast is little, and the colder the Heart is, the less is the Breast and the weaker the Pulse, the Man moves a∣bout his actions as though he dragged a Mill-stone af∣ter him, he is timorous and fearful, afraid of his own shadow, and hath no hai••s upon his Breast: the diffe∣rence in degree of coldness may be known by the great∣ness and smalness of these Symtoms, and this Rule will serve throughout the Body.
