He had eat very little for a Week before I firft 
law him ; and only a little of a Calf’s Foot ftew’d 
the Night before for Supper, and no Breakfaft that 
Day. He was addided to drinking of ftrong Pale* 
Malt Liquor every Day in his Health. 
If this be Chyle , it is a Subftance very different 
from Milk, which is apt to turn four and thick 
by keeping, and never contracts the putrid Smell 
of rotten Eggs, as this did. Whether it be not 
Chyle turn’d putrid, and near to Purulency, by a 
long Circulation in the Blood-Veftels, but not con- 
verted into Blood, through fome Defed in the 
Sanguification , is a Queftion which I doubt can- 
not be decided without more Oblervaticns and Ex- 
perience. 
The Coagulum of the Blood was covered with a 
fizy Pellicle, about the Thicknefs of a Shilling, 
The red Part was of a grumous, tender, incoherent 
Confiftence. 
Tho’ he was much better in a Week’s time, I 
order’d five Ounces of Blood to be taken away, 
to fee what Change had been made, and found the 
Coagulum cover’d with a fizy Pellicle to the Thick- 
nefs of Half a Crown, the red Part of a due Con- 
fiftence, the Serum clear, without any Chyle . 
The Urine became clear, and he recovered in a- 
bo at two Weeks after I faw him firft.
