' it, and caufe the Fermentations nccefiary to the proper 



* Places of the Body, where the excremcntitious Parts of 

 ' the Blood fhould be thrown oft, fuch Excrements are 

 ' colleded every Day in a greater Qiinntity, and acquire a 

 ' greater Degree of Malignity, being hardly any Part of 

 ' them difcharged any other Way but this, which is pre- 



* ternatural, and moft times becomes deftrudlive to the 

 *' Beaft, after the Dileafe hath arrived to the Height. 

 Sone further But we fliall here fubjoin, to what Mr, 

 Ohjcrnjat'ions Siiupe has laid concerning the Glanders^ fome 

 ccncerfiing the few Confiderations ilwt will make this Mat- 

 Clandersy &c. jg^ yet more intelligible ; and in order there- 

 unto, the Reader would do well to confidcr that an Ulcer, 

 or an Abfcefs form'd in any Part, from whence there may 

 conftantly be derived a very large Difcharge of Matter, will 

 foon bring the Body into a weak and debilitated Stale, by 

 depriving it of its neceflary Suftcnance and Support \ and 

 this we find by daily Obfervation, both in human Bodies, 

 and in brute Creatures. 



Nor does this happen by Reafon of the Quantity of Mat- 

 ter alone that iillies from thole Parts, but as it caufes an 

 over great Determination of the Blood towards the ulcera- 

 ted Part, which leflens the common and ordinary Difchar- 

 ges by the Glands and Pores of the Body ; for by this 

 Means the Blood is rendei'd niore vifcid, and unapt to 

 Motion, and fas the above-mention'd Author obferves) it 

 lofes Its Spirits ; and therefore it very readily ftagnates in the 

 ibft Parts, and wiiere the Blood-veilels are very fmall, ?.3 

 in the Lungs, Kidnies, ^c. forming Ulcers in them alfo. 

 And for this Reafon it very oficn falls out, that glander'd 

 Horfes turn Confumptive, and Conlumptive Horl'es turn 

 glander'd. And this has brought Farriers into different Opi- 

 nions concerning the Glanders, becaufe molt glander'd 

 Horfes, after they were open'd, have been found defedtive 

 in one or more of their Inv/ards. 



But to underitand the Nature of this Diftempcr aright, 

 It will be neceflary to confider, that it takes its Beginning, 

 and has its chief Seat in a little foft fpongy Flefli, which is 

 eafdy dilated by the leail Influx of Blood ; and therefore 

 we fometim.es obferve a Running at the Nole in fome 

 Horfes from a very flight Cold ; but when this Subflance 

 happens to be very much relaxed, any one may, without 

 much Diflicultyj imagine how the Running will be apt tq 

 increafe.
