The PREFACE.

THE Tongue is the Instrument both of Speech and Tasting: But both these Acti∣ons are hindered by divers tumors which grow thereabout: And especially eve∣ry Action is diminished, abolished, or depraved by its peculiar Cause. That all these may be severally described, this fifth Book hath four Chapters: Of which, The first is of Inflamation, and other Tumors of the Tongue. The Second is of the Ranula under the Tongue; which though it belong to the kinds of Tumors, yet it is handled by it self, because it requires a different Cure from all the rest. The Third is of the Taste hurt. The Fourth of the Palsey of the Tongue, and other binderances of its Motions.
