CHAP. XL. Of the Wounds of the Ligaments.
* 1.1THe wounds of the Ligaments, besides the common manner of curing those of the Nervs, have nothing peculiar, but that they require more powerful medicins, for their agglutination, de∣ficcation and consolidating; both because the Ligamental parts are harder, and dryer, and also for that they are void of sense. Therefore the foresaid cure of Nerves, and Joints, may be used for these wounds: for the Medicins in both are of the same kind; but here they ought to be stronger and more powerfully drying. The Theory and cure of all the symptoms which shall happen thereupon, have been expressed in the Chapter of curing the Wounds of the nervous parts, so that here we shall need to speak nothing of them, for there you may find as much as you will. Wherefore here let us make an end of wounds, and give thanks to God the Author and giver of all good, for the happy process of our labours: and let us pray that that which remains may be brought to a happy end, and secure for the health and safety of good people.
