If in the beginning of a pluri∣sie the pacient vse to spitte, it short∣neth
the disease, but if it chaunce af∣terward it prolougeth the paynes.
The Northwind blowing a long season together, engedreth colikes, coughes, and pleurisies.
Pieurifies, peripueumonies. reu∣mes, and coughes do chiefly raigne in the winter.
If he which hath the pleurisie, be not purged in. xiiii dayes, the fiuxi∣on will change to matter.
The pleurisy once changed to mat∣ter, if the paciēt be not purged with∣in fourtie dayes after the breaking foorth of the matter, he shall fall to a consumption.
A sodayn laske folowing a plu∣rifie or a peripneumony, is very pe∣rillous.
They whose belching smelleth some what sharpe or tart, be not gi∣uen to the plurisie.
The frensy in a peripne umonie is an euill token.
Who soeuer hauing filthy matter in the voyd place of the stomake, or ha∣uing the hydropsie, is lanced or bur∣ned, if all the water or matter issue foorth, it is present death.
