ALL diseases and affects cannot be discerned by Vrine only, since there are diseases of many parts which alter not the Vrine, * 1.1 but without dispute the Vrine may shew that disposition which is in the Liver and Vrines; since the Vrine is an Ex∣crement of the Veins, of the Reins also and passages through which the Vrine flows, and the diseases of the Bladder and Yard without controversie the Vrine may shew; for if any thing be contained in the ways through which the Vrine passeth contrary to nature; 'tis easily mingled with the Vrine: more∣over the diseases of those parts which send matter to the Veins, may be dscerned by the Vrine. Whence if any peculiar part be affected, and the Vrine changed also; if in the part affected there be also made any peculiar change, it is a token that such matter is transmitted from that part to the Reins and Bladder. On the contrary, also when the matter which is contained in the Veins is carried sometimes to other part s, and causeth vari∣ous Symptomes; the diseases of those parts may also be known by the Vrines, especially if other Symptomes agree with those of the Vrine. Lastly, when Fevers and venemous diseases may be joined with the diseases of many parts, although the Vrines then do not first indicate that very disease of the private part; yet 'tis not unprofitable then to consider the Vrines, and to ob∣serve the signs from thence of life and death.
And thus what may be known, and foretold of every Vrine is manifest, from those things which are spoken of the causes of all the differences which happen unto Vrine.
