As to the Signs, every Body's Eyes will beil in- 

 form them, the' they will be hard put to it to know 

 where the Grievance is fituate ; for there is often 

 bloody Urine made by too violent Exercife with- 

 out any Fault of the Kidneys, or Sufpicion of the 

 Stone, tho' the Blood which comes away in the 

 Urine is frequently difcharged from one or both of 

 them. And fometimes Blood is difcharged from the 

 Ureters, and fometimes from the Arteries of the 

 Yard. A Fall or Bruife, as well as a Straining or 

 hard Leap, as the Huntfmen term it, will alio oc- 

 caflon PiiTmg of Blood. 



De Grey relates a Story *' of a good Gelding 

 ** with which a young Gentleman was Hunting ; 

 ** that upon coming to a great Leap, and rid off his 

 ♦* Wind, his Rider inconfiderately forced him to 

 ** take it, which the Gelding did, tho' with much 

 *' DifEculty, but withal fell and was not able to 

 " rife up but with the Help of Men : And upon 

 *« coming Home the fame Night he pifs'd Blood, 

 « whereof he died four Days after, maugre the 

 " Endeavours of three able Farriers ; and being 

 " open'd, they found two Veins broken near his 

 " Kidneys, and much black Blood." 



The fame Author alfo takes Notice, that piffing 

 bloody Water often is occafionM by too hard 

 Riding, i^c. 

 The Cure. In bloody Urine, or piffing of Blood, the Inten-

 \oi- pilTing nian Bole in Po'ivdcr ; and half an Ounce of Japan..

Doftor Mayern tells us, " that he faw rPerfon 

 '* (who difcharged fuch large Quantities of Blood in 

 ** his Urine, that he was in r Confumptive Way, ) 

 " cured by drinking new Milk from the Cow every
