Preface.

PƲtrid feavers are divided into severall kindes, as continuall, and intermitting; now the first is subdivided into those that are either primary essential, or sympto∣matical; the essential is when putrefa∣ction is inflammed in the common veins without the private parts, the sympto∣matical is when the same is in any par∣ticular part, from which by the com∣mon vessels, the putrid vapors are con∣tinually communicated to the heart,

such appears in Plurisies, peripneumo∣nias; and inflammations of other in∣ternall parts. Again, the primary continuall are double; for one ex∣tends from the beginning :o the end without remission, and is called Sy∣nochus or Continens; but others have manifest fits and remission, and are of three kinds according co the vari∣ety of their fits; as a continuall Ter∣tian, Quotidian, and Quartan. O∣ther differences tre given, which are either accidentall, or arising from the ormer: all which shall briefly and seve∣rally be explained.
