           after

           they
           intreated
           me
           that

           And

           true
           by
           long
           experience
           .
           First
           ,
           heretofore
           when
           I
           did
           alwayes
           drink
           cold
           beer
           ,
           and
           now
           and
           then
           a
           cup
           of
           wine
           ,
           I
           was
           very
           often
           troubled
           with
           exceeding
           pain
           in
           the
           head
           ,
           which
           did
           much
           distemper
           me
           ;
           also
           with
           stomach-ach
           ,
           tooth-ach
           ,
           cough
           ,
           cold
           ,
           and
           many
           other
           Rheumatick
           diseases
           :
           But
           since
           my
           drinking
           my
           beer
           (
           small
           or
           strong
           )
           actually
           hot
           as
           bloud
           ,
           I
           have
           never
           been
           troubled
           with
           any
           of
           the
           former
           diseases
           ,
           but
           have
           alwayes
           continued
           in
           very
           good
           health
           constantly
           (
           blessed
           be
           God
           )
           yet
           I
           use
           not
           to
           drink
           wine
           ,
           because
           I
           find
           that
           hot
           beer
           
           (
           without
           wine
           )
           keepeth
           the
           stomach
           in
           a
           continuall
           moderate
           concoction
           :
           But
           wine
           and
           hot
           beer
           doth
           over-heat
           the
           stomach
           ,
           and
           inflameth
           the
           liver
           ,
           (
           especially
           in
           cold
           stomachs
           which
           have
           hot
           livers
           )
           and
           men
           oftentimes
           drinking
           wine
           to
           heat
           their
           cold
           stomachs
           ,
           they
           thereby
           also
           inflame
           their
           livers
           ,
           and
           so
           the
           helping
           of
           the
           cold
           stomach
           is
           the
           means
           of
           the
           destruction
           of
           the
           liver
           :
           But
           hot
           beer
           doth
           prevent
           this
           evil
           ,
           for
           it
           heateth
           the
           stomach
           and
           causeth
           good
           digestion
           ,
           and
           nourisheth
           and
           strengtheneth
           the
           liver
           .
           And
           that
           hot
           beer
           ,
           actually
           made
           hot
           doth
           cause
           good
           concoction
           ,
           you
           may
           conceive
           it
           by
           this
           comparison
           :
           The
           stomach
           is
           
           compared
           to
           a
           pot
           boyling
           over
           the
           fire
           with
           meat
           ;
           now
           if
           you
           put
           cold
           water
           therein
           it
           ceaseth
           the
           boyling
           ,
           till
           the
           fire
           can
           overcome
           the
           coldnesse
           of
           the
           water
           ,
           and
           the
           more
           water
           you
           put
           in
           ,
           the
           longer
           it
           will
           be
           before
           it
           boyl
           again
           ,
           and
           so
           long
           time
           you
           hinder
           the
           meat
           from
           being
           boyled
           :
           So
           it
           is
           with
           the
           stomach
           .
           If
           you
           drink
           cold
           beer
           ,
           you
           hinder
           the
           digestion
           of
           the
           meat
           in
           the

           and
           the
           more
           cold
           you
           drink
           ,
           the
           more
           you
           hinder
           it
           .
           Also
           ,
           cold
           water
           doth
           not

           but
           also
           causeth
           the
           meat
           to
           be
           hard
           ,
           so
           that
           if

           six
           houres
           longer
           then

           yet
           still
           the
           meat
           will
           be
           hard

           never
           tender
           and
           soft

           Right
           so
           it
           is
           with

           Cold
           beer

           may
           see
           by

           ;
           six
           houres
           after
           they

           vomit
           up
           the
           same
           meat
           again

           as
           raw
           and
           undigested
           as

           even
           then

           done
           ,
           if
           they
           had

           cooled
           their

           because

           as
           this
           hot

           is

           so
           it

           the
           quenching

           For
           I
           have
           not
           known
           thirst
           since
           I
           have
           used
           hot
           beer
           :
           let
           the
           weather
           be
           never
           so
           hot
           ,
           and
           my
           work
           
           great
           ,
           yet
           have
           I
           not
           felt
           thirst
           as
           formerly
           .
           Nay
           although
           I
           have
           eaten
           fish
           or
           flesh
           never
           so
           salt
           ,
           which
           ordinarily
           do
           cause
           thirst
           and
           drinesse
           ,
           yet
           I
           have
           been
           freed
           from
           it
           by
           the
           use
           of
           hot
           beer
           ,
           and
           have
           been
           no
           more
           thirstie
           after
           the
           eating
           of
           salt
           meat
           then
           I
           have
           after
           fresh
           .
           And
           the
           reasons
           make
           it
           manifest
           being
           confirmed
           by
           experience
           ,
           if
           we
           consider
           when
           a
           man
           is
           thirstie
           ,
           there
           are
           two
           master-qualities
           which
           do
           predominate
           in
           the
           stomach
           ,
           namely

           over
           their
           contraries
           ,
           cold
           and
           moisture
           .
           When
           a
           man
           drinketh
           cold
           beer
           to
           quench
           his
           thirst
           ,
           he
           setteth
           all
           foure
           qualities
           together
           by
           the
           ears
           in
           the
           stomach
           ,
           
           which
           do
           with
           all
           violence
           oppose
           one
           another
           ,
           and
           cause
           a
           great
           combustion
           in
           the
           stomach
           ,
           breeding
           many
           distempers

           it
           causeth
           inflammation
           through
           the

           it
           surfeteth
           the
           body
           ,
           and

           In

           and

           Now
           if
           you
           throw

           cold
           water
           upon
           the

           The
           reason
           is
           ,
           because

           made
           actually

           wet

           dry
           easily
           reconciled
           by
           heat
           ,
           in
           another
           example
           :
           Take
           a
           dry
           piece
           of

           will
           oppose
           one
           another

           the

           and
           the
           dry
           cloth
           will
           not
           let
           the
           water
           enter
           into
           it
           ;
           but
           the
           cold
           water
           will
           slide
           off
           from
           the
           dry
           cloth
           ,
           and
           the
           cloth
           will
           swim
           upon
           the
           water
           :
           But
           if
           the
           water
           be
           made
           hot
           ,
           and
           the
           cloth
           thrown
           thereon

           they
           will
           immediately
           embrace
           one
           another
           without
           any
           opposition
           .
        
         
         
           So
           likewise
           ,
           if
           you
           put
           cold
           water
           upon
           dust
           ,
           wet
           and
           dry
           will
           so
           oppose
           each
           other
           ,
           that
           the
           dust
           will
           not
           suffer
           the
           water
           to
           sink
           into
           it
           ,
           but
           the
           water
           will
           trull
           up
           and
           down
           on
           the
           dust
           like
           quick-silver
           :
           but
           if
           the
           water
           be
           hot
           ,
           and
           put
           never
           so
           lightly
           upon
           the
           dust
           ,
           it
           will
           incontinently
           sink
           into
           it
           without
           opposition
           .
           And
           thus
           you
           see
           by
           these
           examples
           how
           heat
           is
           as
           it
           were
           a
           means
           to
           make
           friendship
           between
           wet
           and
           dry
           .
           Even
           so
           it
           doth
           in
           the
           stomach

           When
           one
           is
           exceeding
           thirstie
           ,
           the
           beer
           being
           made
           hot
           and
           then
           drunk
           into
           the

           it
           immediately
           quencheth
           the
           thirst
           ,
           moistening
           and
           refreshing
           Nature
           abundantly
           .
        
         
         
           But
           some
           will
           say
           ,
           Cold
           beer
           is
           very
           pleasant
           to
           one
           that
           is
           thirstie
           :
           I
           answer
           it
           is
           true
           :
           But
           pleasant
           things
           for
           the
           most
           part
           are
           very
           dangerous
           .
           Cold
           beer
           is
           pleasant
           when
           extreme
           thirst
           is
           in
           the
           stomach
           ,
           but
           what
           more
           dangerous
           to
           the
           health
           ?
           How
           many
           have
           you
           known
           &
           heard
           of
           ,
           who
           by
           drinking
           of
           a
           cup
           of
           cold
           beer
           in
           extreme
           thirst
           ,
           have
           taken
           a
           surfet
           and
           killed
           themselves
           ?
           What
           more
           pleasant
           then
           for
           one
           that
           hath
           gone
           up
           a
           hill
           in
           summer
           time
           and
           is
           exceeding
           hot
           ,
           to
           sit
           down
           and
           open
           his
           breast
           that
           the
           cool
           aire
           may
           blow
           therein
           ?
           And
           yet
           how
           dangerous
           is
           it
           ?
           For
           a
           man
           in
           very
           short
           time
           ,
           for
           getting
           himself
           ,
           taketh
           a
           sudden
           
           cold
           ,
           and
           surfets
           thereon
           ,
           which
           costeth
           his
           precious
           life
           for
           his
           pleasant
           aire
           .
           Therefore
           we
           must
           not
           drink
           cold
           beer
           ,
           because
           it
           is
           pleasant
           ;
           but
           hot
           beer
           ,
           because
           it
           is
           profitable
           ,
           especially
           in
           the
           Citie
           for
           such
           as
           have
           cold
           stomachs
           ,
           and
           inclining
           to
           a
           consumption
           .
           I
           have
           known
           some
           that
           have
           been
           so
           farre
           gone
           in
           a
           consumption
           ,
           that
           none
           would
           think
           in
           reason
           they
           could
           live
           a
           week
           to
           an
           end
           :
           their
           breath
           was
           short
           ,
           their
           stomach
           was
           gone
           ,
           and
           their
           strength
           failed
           ,
           so
           that
           they
           were
           not
           able
           to
           walk
           about
           the
           room
           without
           resting
           ,
           panting
           and
           blowing
           :
           they
           drank
           many
           hot
           drinks
           and
           wines
           to
           heat
           their
           cold
           stomachs
           ,
           and
           cure
           their
           
           diseases
           ,
           especially
           sweet
           wines
           ,
           but
           all
           in
           vain
           :
           for
           the
           more
           wine
           they
           drank
           to
           warm
           their
           stomachs
           ,
           the
           more
           they
           inflamed
           their
           livers
           ,
           by
           which
           means
           they
           grew
           worse
           and
           worse
           increasing
           their
           disease
           :
           But
           when
           they
           did
           leave
           drinking
           all
           wine
           ,
           and
           betook
           themselves
           onely
           to
           the
           drinking
           of
           hot
           beer
           so
           hot
           as
           bloud
           ,
           within
           a
           moneth
           their
           breath
           stomach
           and
           strength
           was
           so
           increased
           ,
           that
           they
           could
           walk
           about
           their
           garden
           with
           ease
           ,
           and
           within
           two
           moneths
           could
           walk
           
             4.
          
           miles
           ,
           and
           within
           three
           moneths
           were
           perfectly
           made
           well
           as
           ever
           they
           were
           in
           their
           lives
           .
           And
           I
           doubt
           not
           but
           many
           that
           have
           practiced
           this
           thing
           can
           witnesse
           the
           
           truth
           of
           these
           as
           well
           as
           my self
           :
           So
           having
           performed
           the
           request
           of

           my

           more

           necessary

           imposed
           a
           kind
           of
           necessitie
           of

           Secondly
           to
           shew
           and
           make
           manifest
           whether
           drink
           made
           hot
           doth
           as
           well
           or
           better
           supply
           those
           necessities
           ,
           as
           drink
           being
           actually
           cold
           or
           made
           cold
           ?
        
         
           Thirdly
           to
           examine
           the
           reasons
           and

           the
           objections

           maintenance
           of

           drink
           .

           and
           you

           us
           in
           the
           hot
           time

           if
           we
           labour
           much

           But

           consideration
           of

           us
           examine
           the
           reasons
           why
           cold
           should

           necessary
           in
           allaying
           thirst
           .
           It
           appeareth
           to
           me
           ,
           that
           it
           is
           either
           to
           the
           end
           to
           extinguish
           it
           ,
           or
           to
           mitigate
           it
           .
           But
           extinguish
           it
           by
           any
           means
           it
           cannot
           .
           For
           let
           any
           man
           that
           is
           exceeding
           dry
           ,
           eat
           any
           thing
           that

           joyned
           with
           it
           ,
           and
           he
           shall
           find
           by
           experience
           that
           it
           may
           well
           choke
           him
           ,
           but
           in
           no
           sort
           allay
           his
           drought
           .
           And
           for
           mitigating
           his
           drought
           how
           dissonant

           You
           have
           therefore
           heard
           that
           Nature

           enforced
           a
           necessitie
           of
           drinking
           uopn
           us
           for
           two
           causes
           :
           the
           one
           for
           allaying
           our
           thirst
           ,
           the
           other
           to
           be
           a
           means
           to
           boil
           ,
           and
           being
           boiled
           to
           carry
           and
           spread
           our
           nourishment
           universally
           in
           our
           bodies
           .
           As
           touching
           the
           first
           point
           ,
           thirst
           being
           drinesse
           requireth
           his
           contrary
           ,
           as
           
             Plato
          
           saith
           in
           his
           aforenamed
           book
           ,
           
           which
           is
           moisture
           for
           his
           
             antidote
          
           and
           help
           .
           But
           to
           prove
           that
           hot
           drink
           doth
           soonest
           perform
           that
           ,
           I
           will
           use
           two
           arguments
           .
        
         
           1.
           
           Whatsoever
           doth
           most
           speedily
           carry
           and
           disperse
           moisture
           into
           the
           bodie
           ,
           doth
           best
           and
           soonest
           cure
           drinesse
           .
           But
           heat
           doth
           speediliest
           carrie
           and
           effectualliest
           distribute
           moisture
           ;
           Therefore
           it
           doth
           best
           help
           drinesse
           .
        
         
           My
           
             minor
          
           I
           prove
           out
           of
           
             Aristotle
             ,
          
           where
           he
           saith
           ,
           
             In
             caliditate
             est
             vis

             fortissima
             ,
          
           In
           heat
           is
           a
           most
           strong
           force
           of
           opening
           .
           Again
           
             Galen
          
           in
           his
           book
           
             de
             facultatibus
             ,
          
           knowing
           that
           heat
           
           joyned
           with
           liquour
           doth
           enforce
           the
           quicker
           passage
           ,
           prescribing
           a
           draught
           of
           water
           in
           the
           disease
           of
           the
           stone
           ,
           commandeth
           that
           it
           be
           drunk
           hot
           :
           which
           also
           is
           one
           of
           the
           reasons
           why
           we
           make
           our
           potions
           to
           purge

           to

           hot
           of
           our
           patients

           Our
           second
           argument
           is
           this
           .
           Whatsoever
           moisture
           being
           come
           to
           the
           place
           destinated

           best

           and
           effectualliest
           enter
           in
           ,
           doth
           soonest
           work
           according
           to
           his
           nature
           and
           qualitie
           :
           But
           heat
           doth
           best
           unite
           it self
           with
           heat
           ,
           and
           so
           conduct
           the
           moisture
           in
           :
           Therefore
           it
           doth
           most
           effectually
           allay
           our
           thirst

             because
             bruit

           But
           how
           ridiculous
           &
           how
           unworthy
           a

           let
           any
           man
           judge

           for
           it
           is
           as
           much
           as
           to
           say
           because
           bruit
           beasts
           eat
           their
           food
           raw
           ,
           therefore
           it
           is
           against
           nature
           for
           us
           to
           have

           sodden

           But
           if

           should
           so
           say

           I
           doubt
           not

           I

           there

           nothing
           but
           strong
           sack

           thought
           of
           two
           evils
           the

           was
           to
           be
           chosen

           and
           knowing
           water
           could
           not

           him

           I
           think
           it
           very
           absurd
           for
           any
           man

           learning
           to
           write
           ,
           and
           too
           foolish
           for
           us
           to
           believe
           :
           and
           therefore
           you
           may
           understand
           that
           upon
           what
           occasion

           it
           is
           no
           warrant
           for
           us
           .
        
         
           Thirdly
           ,
           that
           
             Monardus
          
           writes

           the
           liver
           ,
           and
           cold
           contrarily
           helps
           ,
           I
           cannot
           deny
           ;
           but
           yet
           
           I
           will
           shew
           that
           in
           so
           saying
           he
           playeth
           the
           right
           Spaniard
           ,
           who
           meaneth
           least
           the
           matter
           that
           he
           seemeth
           to
           speak
           plainest
           .
           For
           whereas
           in
           generall
           words
           he
           affirmeth
           hot
           drink
           to
           destroy
           the
           liver
           ,
           he
           afterwards
           makes
           such
           an
           exception
           ,
           as
           I
           think
           few
           at
           this
           day
           live
           who
           be
           not

           within
           some
           one
           branch
           thereof
           :
           so
           that
           he
           either
           saith
           nothing
           in
           his
           generall
           position
           ,
           or
           else
           so
           little

           few
           there
           be

           it
           concerns

           And
           that
           this
           is
           true
           you
           may
           judge
           by
           his
           exception
           following

           How
           untrue
           this
           is

           I
           will
           plainly
           shew

           All

           It

           the

           this

           easily
           see

           may
           be
           seen
           in
           winter
           either
           in
           wine

           beer
           being
           very
           cold

           for
           according
           to
           
             Aristotle
          
           cold
           is
           rather
           
             qualitas
             tangibilis
             quàm
             gustabilis

           onely

           want
           of

           that
           by
           experience
           
           I
           find
           ,
           having
           used
           it
           almost
           a
           year
           and
           a

           But
           as
           concerning
           the
           seventh
           objection
           ,
           which
           is
           ,
           that
           cold
           drink
           nourisheth
           best
           ,
           in
           respect
           that
           heating
           of
           the
           beer
           passeth
           away
           its
           finest
           spirits
           ;
           I
           thus
           answer
           :
           Beer
           having
           sustained
           a
           great
           boyling
           ,
           those
           spirits
           which
           remain
           in
           it
           after
           that
           boyling
           ,
           will
           not
           part
           with
           so
           small
           a
           heating
           :
           and
           of
           that
           I
           have
           made
           this
           experience
           ;
           I
           have
           taken
           a
           kettle
           with
           a
           broad
           mouth
           and
           therein
           put
           three
           pottles
           of
           beer
           ,
           &
           have
           boyled
           it
           half
           an
           houre
           to
           a
           gallon
           ,
           and
           then
           I
           have
           set
           it
           in
           a
           pot
           with
           a
           limbech
           ,
           and
           
           I
           have
           drawn
           from
           it
           as
           much
           
             aqua
             vitae
          
           as
           I
           could
           from
           a
           gallon
           ,
           which
           was
           immediately
           put
           out
           of
           the
           barrel
           into
           the
           pot
           :
           which
           absolutely
           overthrows
           that
           objection
           .
           Yet
           if
           it
           had
           not
           been
           so
           ,
           our
           drink
           could
           not
           have
           received
           any
           blemish
           :
           for
           first
           it
           is
           not
           in
           any
           open
           vessel
           ,
           and
           secondly
           it
           never
           boyls
           .
           But
           seeing
           it
           holds
           in
           the
           greater
           ,
           of
           necessitie
           it
           is
           not
           to
           be
           doubted
           in
           the
           lesser
           ;
           for
           
             à
             majore
             ad
             minus
          
           is
           a
           good
           argument
           .
        
         
           But
           now
           to
           the
           eighth
           and
           last
           objection
           :
           which
           is
           ,
           That
           it
           opens
           the
           pores
           too
           much
           and
           maketh
           one
           catch
           cold
           :
           Although
           there
           be
           little
           sense
           
           or
           reason
           to
           maintain
           this
           objection
           (
           neither
           indeed
           can
           I
           conceive
           any
           colour
           of
           reason
           )
           yet
           I
           will
           reason
           something
           against
           it
           .
        
         
           Nothing
           joyned
           to
           his
           like
           can
           make
           an
           extreme
           ,
           but
           where
           the
           thing
           joyned
           is
           in
           greater
           degree
           then
           the
           thing
           to
           which
           it
           is
           joyned
           ,
           nor
           can
           it
           make
           it
           greater
           unles
           it
           be
           in
           quantity
           .
           Therefore
           if
           naturall
           heat
           which
           is
           in
           the
           stomach
           do
           not
           by
           too
           much
           opening
           of
           the
           pores
           cause
           one
           to
           catch
           cold
           ,
           the
           heat
           of
           hot
           drink
           as
           we
           drink
           it
           cannot
           :
           because
           it
           is
           as
           little
           or
           lesse
           then
           the
           heat
           to
           which
           it
           joyneth
           .
           For
           were
           it
           in
           extreme
           or
           hotter
           then
           
           naturally
           the
           stomach
           should
           be
           ,
           we
           could
           not
           drink
           it
           .
           For
           otherwise
           why
           could
           we
           not
           drink
           any
           thing
           scalding
           hot
           ?
           therefore
           it
           diminisheth
           none
           and
           addeth
           little
           ,
           but
           preserving
           all
           naturall
           warmth
           it
           can
           give
           no
           occasion
           of
           offence
           ;
           for
           if
           this
           were
           otherwise
           ,
           wherefore
           do
           we
           commend
           hot
           broth
           ,
           or
           eat
           hot
           meat
           ,
           which
           in
           respect
           of
           his
           grossenesse
           keeps
           longer
           hot
           ,
           and
           likewise
           advise
           exercise
           ,
           but
           because
           naturall
           heat
           should
           purge
           
             animam
             per
             poros
             cutis
             &
             ductus
             convenientes
             ,
          
           that
           is
           ,
           the
           bloud
           through
           the
           pores
           of
           the
           skin
           and
           convenient
           passages
           :
           but
           leave
           off
           before
           you
           heat
           
           your self
           violently
           ,
           and
           you
           shall
           never
           catch
           cold
           :
           for
           it
           is
           a
           violent
           heat
           doth
           extenuate
           and
           make
           way
           for
           cold
           .
           And
           therefore
           it
           is
           most
           evident
           that
           it
           suggests
           not
           the
           least
           cause
           in
           the
           world
           of
           that
           inconvenience
           .
           And
           so
           much
           for

           The
           hurt
           that
           ariseth
           from
           the
           use
           of
           actuall
           cold
           drink

           NOw
           it
           remains
           that
           we
           do
           shew
           the
           hurt
           that
           cold
           drink
           doth
           procure
           ,
           as
           the
           sixth
           position
           by
           order
           to
           be
           intreated
           of
           doth
           require
           .
           That
           it
           helps
           not
           the
           body
           ,
           before
           is
           proved
           ,
           but
           
           that
           it
           hurteth
           all
           and
           every
           principall
           part
           shall
           now
           be
           shewed
           .
           We
           will
           divide
           the
           body
           of
           man
           into
           three
           parts
           or
           sections
           ,
           the
           head
           and
           that
           therein
           contained
           ;
           the
           breast
           and
           all
           therein
           contained
           above
           the
           
             Diaphragma
          
           ;
           and
           all
           that
           is
           contained
           in
           the
           
             ventre
             inferiore
          
           :
           But
           cold
           drink
           hurts
           all
           these
           ,
           therefore
           my
           first
           position
           is
           true
           ,
           
             viz.
          
           That
           it
           hurts
           all
           the
           principall
           parts
           .
           And
           because
           I
           will
           make
           it
           more
           manifest
           ,
           I
           will
           particularly
           speak
           of
           every
           severall
           thing
           ,
           first
           beginning
           with
           the
           head
           ,
           and
           the
           least
           offences
           :
           and
           because
           the
           teeth
           are
           the
           first
           instruments
           we
           use
           in
           receiving
           our
           food
           ,
           
           I
           will
           first
           speak
           of
           them
           .
           To
           prove
           that
           cold
           is
           an
           enemy
           to
           them
           ,
           I
           produce
           
             Hippocrates
          
           in
           his
           first
           book
           and
           18.
           
           Aphorisme
           ,
           where
           he
           saith
           ,
           
             Frigidum
             dentibus
             inimicum
             ,
          
           that
           is
           ,
           Cold
           is
           an
           enemy
           to
           the
           teeth
           ;
           where
           although
           he
           addes
           not
           the
           reason
           ,
           yet
           it
           seemeth
           to
           be
           for
           two
           causes
           :
           the
           one
           ,
           because
           it
           taketh
           away
           their
           nourishment
           ,
           as
           extinguishing
           their
           spirits
           ;
           the
           other
           ,
           because
           it
           alters
           from
           their
           nature
           the
           nerves
           inserted
           in
           the
           roots
           of
           the
           teeth
           :
           which
           
             Aristotle
          
           in
           his
           problems
           doth
           seem
           to
           intimate
           ,
           when
           he
           saith
           that
           they
           contain
           but
           little
           heat
           
             propter
             tenuitatem
             meatuum
          
           by
           reason
           
           of
           the
           narrownesse
           of
           the
           passages
           ,
           and
           therefore
           are
           easily
           overcome
           with
           the
           coldnesse
           of
           the
           bier
           :
           for
           you
           must
           understand
           that
           into
           the
           hollownesse
           of
           the
           teeth
           there
           come
           sinews
           
             à

             ,
          
           and
           also
           that
           divers
           small
           veins
           and
           hairy
           arteries
           do
           branch
           in
           the
           inward
           part
           of
           the
           teeth
           ,
           whereupon
           divers
           times
           the
           teeth
           being
           bored
           bloud
           issueth
           out
           .
           There
           is
           also
           inwardly
           a
           thin
           film
           or
           membrane

           which
           in
           no
           sort
           can
           indure
           cold
           ,
           and
           yet
           will
           be
           cut
           or
           filed
           without
           feeling
           ;
           because
           the
           one
           is
           imparted
           to
           the
           uttermost
           part
           ,
           the
           other
           to
           the
           root
           and
           hollownesse

           If
           then
           bier
           in
           respect
           of
           actuall
           coldnesse
           be
           such
           an
           enemy
           to
           the
           teeth
           ,
           which
           Nature
           hath
           provided
           for
           so
           many
           good
           purposes
           ,
           as
           first
           ,
           to
           divide
           our
           meat
           and
           to
           prepare
           it
           for
           our
           stomach
           ;
           secondly
           ,
           to
           be
           a
           means
           to
           articulate
           and
           grace
           our
           speech
           ,
           whereby
           it
           comes
           to
           passe
           that
           those
           that
           want
           their
           teeth
           cannot
           bring
           forth
           R
           nor
           
             S
          
           ;
           thirdly
           ,
           to
           be
           an
           ornament
           and
           beauty
           to
           our
           face
           and
           countenance
           :
           for
           want
           of
           the
           teeth
           causeth
           the
           mouth
           to
           fall
           in
           with
           an
           undecent
           relapse
           of
           the
           lips
           into
           the
           hollownesse
           of
           the
           mouth
           .
           If
           I
           say
           there
           were
           no
           more
           but
           this
           ,
           it
           were
           sufficient
           
           to
           think
           it
           too-too
           unfit
           for
           a
           man
           to
           use
           .
        
         
           But
           to
           go
           further
           ,
           I
           will
           prove
           it
           is
           hurtfull
           to
           the
           tongue
           ,
           to
           the
           jaws
           ,
           to
           the
           passage
           which
           we
           call
           
             oesophagus
             ,
          
           the
           high
           way
           unto
           the
           stomach
           ,
           and
           so
           by
           that
           means
           to
           the
           brain
           it self
           :

           as
           the
           saying
           is

           The
           law
           is
           most
           praise-worthy
           when
           it
           is
           proved
           by
           reason

           so
           is

           and
           therefore
           I
           will
           shew
           how
           the
           drink
           passeth
           to
           the
           lungs
           ,
           and
           how
           passing
           thither
           it
           hurts
           and
           offends
           ;
           not
           taking
           any
           notice
           of
           
             Hippocrates

             morbis
             ,
          
           where
           he
           useth
           many
           reasons
           against
           it
           ,
           nor
           yet
           of
           
             Aristotle
          
           who
           contends
           for
           the
           contrary
           .
           But
           
             Hippocrates
          
           well
           understood
           doth
           not
           contradict
           the
           truth
           ,
           as
           in
           many
           other
           places
           he
           
           shews
           ,
           and
           all
           other
           ancient
           Philosophers
           ,
           as
           
             Plato

           and
           experience

           Understand
           then
           when
           I
           say
           drink
           goeth
           to
           the
           lungs
           ,
           I
           mean
           not
           all
           the
           drink
           we
           take
           into
           our
           mouth
           ,
           but
           some
           portion
           thereof
           :
           And
           because
           I
           am
           to
           shew
           which
           way
           it
           passeth
           thither
           ,
           therefore
           I
           think
           it
           not
           amisse
           to

           mentioned
           is
           ,
           because
           it

           for

           here
           I

           Furthermore

           for

           the
           lungs
           be
           easily
           affected

           By
           this
           may
           the
           Reader
           see
           how
           cold

           that

           Now
           it
           follows
           to
           prove
           it
           an
           enemy
           to
           the
           stomach
           ;
           which
           if
           we
           do
           ,
           considering
           
           the
           stomach
           is
           
             radix
             corporis
             ,
          
           which
           nourisheth
           the
           whole
           body
           ,
           as
           
             Hippocrates
          
           saith
           ,
           I
           hope
           there
           is
           none
           so
           obstinate
           but
           will
           adjudge
           it
           worthy
           the

           Therefore
           concerning
           this
           (
           because

           strong
           hot

           The
           reason
           was
           ,
           because
           without
           vineger
           it

           And
           in
           another
           
           drunk
           when

           not

           when
           they

           To
           demonstrate
           that
           it

           bereft
           of
           them
           in
           the
           boyling

           weigh
           but
           this
           :
           Take
           water
           boyled
           ,
           and
           water
           never
           boyled

           and
           set
           them
           out
           in
           the
           frosty
           weather
           ,
           and
           that
           which
           hath
           been
           boyled
           will
           first
           freeze
           :
           Which
           is
           because
           its
           warmest
           parts
           are
           exhaled

           But
           it
           may
           be
           objected
           ,
           that
           although
           water
           will
           do
           so
           ,
           yet
           the
           composition
           of

           taken
           that
           away
           ;
           and
           therefore
           beer
           is
           freed
           from
           that

           I
           answer
           ,
           set
           beer
           and
           water

           beer

           Water

           never
           was
           boyled

           in

           all
           its
           aeriall

           be

           bereft
           of
           them

           the
           boyling
           ,
           weigh
           but
           this
           :
           Take
           water
           boyled

           boyled

           the
           frosty
           weather

           and
           that
           which
           hath
           been
           boyled
           will
           first
           freeze
           :
           Which
           is
           because
           its
           warmest
           parts
           are
           exhaled

           But
           it
           may
           be
           objected

           that
           although
           water
           will
           do
           so

           the
           composition
           of

           taken
           that
           away
           ;
           and
           therefore
           beer
           is
           freed
           from
           that

           I
           answer
           ,
           set
           beer

           The

           But
           this

           experience

           these
           instances
           I
           have
           seen
           :
           About
           the
           yeare
           of
           our
           Lord
           1590.
           
           I
           was
           with
           a
           gentlewoman
           one
           Mr

           wife
           of
           Jarcks
           hill

             Kent
             ,
          
           in
           whom
           ,
           labouring
           of
           a
           cancer
           in
           her
           
             matrix
             ,
          
           I
           tryed
           this
           experience
           ,
           that
           giving
           her
           beer
           actually
           cold
           she
           would
           immediately
           be
           in
           the
           greatest
           pain
           in
           the
           world
           ,
           but
           give
           it
           her
           hot
           and
           she
           felt
           none
           .
           Another
           woman
           dwelt
           in
           Houndsditch
           ,
           at
           the
           signe
           of
           the
           guilded
           cup
           ,
           seven
           years
           since
           ,
           who
           likewise
           labouring
           of
           a
           cancer
           in
           the
           
             matrix
             ,
          
           if
           you
           had
           given
           her
           cold
           beer
           ,
           it
           made
           her
           be
           in
           great
           pain
           ,
           if
           hot
           ,
           
           in
           nothing
           so
           much
           :
           By
           which
           it
           is
           evident
           that
           the
           beer
           did
           passe
           so
           cold
           ,
           as
           that
           it
           gave
           a
           sensible
           feeling
           of
           the
           difference
           .
           And
           therefore
           it
           is
           not
           to
           be
           doubted
           but
           that
           the
           actuall
           cold
           was
           an
           enemy
           ,
           being
           so
           much
           more
           misliked
           of
           Nature
           then
           the

           Now
           let
           us
           examine
           by
           what
           means
           drink
           received
           actually
           cold
           hurts
           the
           bowels
           ,
           according
           as
           our
           ancient
           physicians
           write
           :
           For
           my
           own
           opinion
           ,
           I
           hold
           it
           hurts
           them
           many
           wayes
           :
           First
           ,
           in
           respect
           it
           breeds
           crudity
           in
           the
           stomach
           ,
           whereof
           groweth
           fleam
           ,
           which
           fleam
           descending
           into
           the
           bowels
           
           breeds
           intollerable
           collicks
           ,
           and
           worms
           .
           Secondly
           ,
           it
           breeds
           windinesse
           ,
           which
           likewise
           is
           the
           nurse
           of
           extreme
           inconveniences
           incident
           to
           the
           bowels
           .
           Lastly
           fluxes
           ,
           although

           of
           society
           .
           Seeing
           therefore
           it
           hath

           so
           generall
           an

           I
           may
           well
           conclude
           with
           
             Aristotle
             in

           The
           stomach
           is
           an
           office

           warmth

           Therefore
           it
           must
           needs
           be
           helped

           agreeable

           the

           is
           drawn
           out

           of
           keeping

           there
           which

           And
           our
           ancient
           physicians
           have
           been
           so
           jealous

           How
           much
           more

           to
           reason
           to

           who
           holdeth
           that
           in

           we

           most
           meat

           whereof
           
             Galen
          
           giving
           the
           reason
           saith
           ,
           it
           is
           
           because
           the
           outward
           cold
           keeps
           in
           the
           heat
           in
           the
           stomach
           ,
           and
           makes
           it
           stronger
           :
           And
           yet
           I
           remember
           
             Arnoldus
             De

           makes
           such
           doubt
           of
           cold
           ,
           that
           he
           seemeth
           to
           take

           it

           how
           helping

           :
           which
           thus
           I

           The
           
             minor
          
           is
           true

           with
           naturall
           heat
           preserves
           
           the
           naturall
           heat
           of
           the

           But
           warm
           drink
           being
           temperate
           joyneth
           with
           the
           other
           :
           Therefore
           hot
           drink

           Now
           it
           is
           evident
           that
           the

           and
           therefore
           temperate

           For
           
             Montanus

           that
           is
           ,
           Mediocrities
           are
           called
           temperate
           as
           well
           in
           respect
           of
           their

           contraries
           .
        
         
           Now
           will
           I
           also
           prove
           that
           by
           helipng
           the
           stomach
           it
           also
           
           helps
           the
           liver
           ,
           in
           this
           sort
           :
           whatsoever
           washeth
           the
           stomach
           naturally
           ,
           and
           keeps
           the
           meseraicks
           open
           ,
           doth
           help
           the
           liver
           :
           But
           hot
           drink
           doth
           so
           :
           Therefore
           it
           helps
           the
           liver
           .
           But
           before
           I
           prosecute
           the
           argument
           any
           further
           ,
           I
           will
           shew
           how
           in
           performing
           that
           ,
           it
           helps
           the
           liver
           ;
           which
           it
           doth
           two
           wayes
           :
           First
           ,
           because
           in
           washing
           the
           stomach
           and
           bowels
           it
           produceth
           inanition
           ,
           which
           causeth
           appetite
           ;
           which
           is
           a
           desire
           of
           new
           matter
           fit
           for
           new
           bloud
           :
           Secondly
           ,
           because
           in
           keeping
           open
           the
           meseraicks
           it
           keeps
           the
           liver
           from
           any
           great
           obstructions
           ,
           whereby
           it
           breeds
           warmth
           according
           
           to
           nature
           ,
           and
           also
           brings
           continually
           good
           nourishment
           for
           the
           liver
           to
           work
           upon
           .
           And
           to
           prove
           this
           ,
           That
           hot
           drink
