 GENUS II. 



With the Production of new VeJJels by internal Membranes or 

 Glands, with Fever. 



IN the firft clafs of difeafes two kinds offerers were defcri- 

 bed, one from excefs, and the other from defect of irritation ; 

 and were in confequence termed irritative, and inirritative fevers. 

 In this fecond clafs of difeafes another kind of fever occurs, 

 which is caufed by excefs of fenfation, and termed in confe- 

 quence Senfitive Fever. But there is no fever from defect of 

 fenfation, becaufe the circulation is carried on in health without 

 our confcioufnefs, that is, without any fenfation attending it. 



But as excefs of fenfation may exift with excefs or defect of 

 irritation, two other kinds of fever arife from a combination of 

 fenfitive fever with the irritative, and inirritative ones. Making 

 five kinds in all. 



1. Irritative fever, defcribed in Clafs I. I. I. i. 



2. Inirritative fever. Clafs I. 2 i. I. 



3. Senfitive fever. Clafs II. 1.6. i. 



4. Senfitive irritated fever. Clafs II. 1.2. I. 



5. Senfitive inirritated fever. Clafs II. i. 3. i. 



As the fenfitive irritated fever attends all the difeafes enumer- 

 ated under the genus about to be defcribed, it is placed at the 

 head of it. And as the fenfitive inirritated fever accompanies 

 the greateft number of the fpecies enumerated under the third 

 genus of this order, it is placed at the head of them. And as 

 the fenfitive fever attends the difeafes of the fixth genus, it is 

 placed at the head of them. But as every febrile paroxyfm con- 

 fids of difordered tribes or trains of aflbciated motions, it may be 

 doubted, whether they ought not all to have been placed in the 

 fourth clafs, amongft the difeafes of afTociation. See Clafs IV.

All the fubfcquent fpecies of this genus are attended with fen- 

 fitive irritated fever ; there are neverthelefs fome fuperficiai in- 

 flammations, which affect the fame fituations without much fever, 

 as the fcrofulous ophthalmy and fpurious peripneumony, 

 which belong to other genera. 



Inflammation is uniformly attended with the production or
