mngof tbe Feaver an inclination to vomit, but no vomit 
was given ; and that thofe fymptoms, which commonly are 
imputed to a malignity, do, for the mott part, proceed from 
the Relaxation of the tone of the Blond, catrfed by Medi- 
cines too refrigerating, or by the unfeafonable ufe of Gli- 
tters in the declination of the difeafe. As to the Latter 5 he 
obferves, that one of the chief caufes, rendring the Cure 
of Feavers fo uncertain and unfuccefsfull,is,thatPr^^/f/^rj* 
do accommodate their obfervations, they take from the 
fuccefsful cure of fome Feavers in one feafon of the year, 
or in fome one year, to that of all Feavers in any feafon, or

Bicoughs, Fluxes . Shewing, both whence they are caufed,, 
and how they are to be cured: Where having inferteda

among many Obfervables, this, as a chief one, tha t Lauda- 
num, or any other Narcotic!^ given againft the Phrenfy , in 
the beginning, progrefs,or height of a Feaver, does rather 
hurt, than good, but in the declination thereof, is ufed with
