Bur alchough thetechings be chus, yec Auchorsdiffer ftil of this, whecher thac [What it is.
malignicy confift only inthe caufe, of whether there be alfo fome mahgtiane Dit* eafe prefenc. Capivacciws, de ‘Morb. Gal. Cap. 1. chinks this affect not co be the

fubftance by its like.
Thus alfo Hercules Saxonia, delue Vener. Cap. 1. writes, that che Veneral Difeafeische Caufe, not the Difeafenor che Symptome, theretore, becaufe itcan exift out of mans body in Linneng or other tuch kind of vercues, befides in the {weat,Seed, and Blood, being feperared from the body; but wichin mans Body ic infects ahd poficfes alfo:chote parts which are nor living,and ate not fubject co Dit eafes, viz. che humors and {pirits.
Aurelius Minadows de virulentia Vener. holds that’cis neicher che difeafe, nor che caufe,nor the fymptomnot che difeafe for ehis caufe cap.17. becaufe “tis neither a diftemper, nor evil Compotition, nor a folucion of unity : but he denies it co be ‘che caufe of che Difeafe, Cap. 9. fince that is properly che prerernatural, che caule be~ cween which and the Action there fals a medium, viz. the difeafe whenas the diteafé ischact which doth nexe of al burt the Action, buc thecaufe doth hurt it by interven- cion of the Difeafe ; buc becween che Venera! virulency and the a@ion hure hé thinks there fals no medium, buc chat of it felf by its own ftrength doth primarily and immediacely viciate and hurt che operations; buc chat the Veneral virwlency doth of it felfand primartly huct che operations, he chinks this is conféft amongit Phyfittans, and cherefore deems ic co be prefuppofed, and unlefs this virulency did of it felfand primarily hurt che operations, fo many Phytitians would no: fave las bored in fearching out its nature, He proves it is no Symprome, Cap. 18. beaufe icisnoactionburc, nor qualicy changed, noc excrement altered; That it is na action hure, he proves by this, becaufe che veneral virulency ir felf is chat which
hurcs the actions ; neither is ic any qu:lity changed, becau(e the qualities changed do follow che actions hurc,and befides to many difeafes are feen in this virulency whieh are not Symptomes. Buc 4serelins Minadous himfelf, when he had rejected a} the opinions 8c definitions of ochers, ac lengehhe fits himfelf to make a perfect definition and to explain the nature of chisevil. Buc firft of al Chap, 16. he prefuppofes this as the ground of his opinion, viz. chat the French Difeafe ought nor to be defined by a quality but rather by che name of a body, for this reafon,becaufe ic paff one body toanother, which is he propriety of bodies not of qualities, and becaufe ic coucheth other bodies, for none but bodies can touch, and be couche again, as Lye cretins hath ic. Again, ific were a quality, it were either manifeft, or occult, no manifeft one, as he proves rightly by many Atguments; buc that ic is no occule quality he brings no {pecial Argument, but repeats che general one, becaufe ’tis moe ved from place co place, and coucheth other bodies.
This prefuppoted, afterwards Chap. 30, he affirmes the Veneral virulency to be fomwhat corporeal incernal, and truly a {piri or a vapor, for chis reafon, be- caufe “tis carried,commuicated, and parcicipated in a very fhore {pace of time. Yer he holds ic co be fuch a vapor which 1s endewed wich an occiale qualicy and vercue from ics whol fubftance, or che whol mode of its nature, by reafon of which qualicy itcannot only infetany bumors of che body , but alfo al parts of the body, and corrup: chem 8c curn them co its own likene(s: buc that chis evil confitts ina fpictu~ al fubftance, he furcher proves, becaufe fome are infected not only by the act af Venery, bucalfo by aKifs, orthe ule of garments: next of al, becaufe fome hava felt no other hurcc from chis evil, chan only che falling of cheir hair, becaufe che roots of che hairs were gnawed off by che acrid vapors.

Chap.3. Of the Natureof theVeneral Difeafe. Mt Symptomes, which appear in this Difeafe; nor tothe Cure, edd Therefore when as che action of the veneral vitulency’ can be refetted.co no mae nifeft quality,“ We may wel fay thacby that is induced.an occult quality: For firft of al every efficient caufe is {aidcto be acaufe from the Nature of its efficiency, 3 and therefore this malignane qualicy doth not only alter and change the humots~ bur alfo the living parts into its likenefs: again, though the morbifick caufebe caken away, andthisditeafefeem now to be overcome, yet unlefs that malignane difpo- fition -be deftroyed the man recovers not his perfed health. For it hath been obferved that the Veneral Difeafe hath fomtimes grown freth after thirty years paft, which doubtlefs happened not becaufe the Vitious Humors lay fo long hid in the body (for thefe would have fooner difcovered them{elves by their figns but becaufe that malignant difpofitionimpreft onthe body was aQuall there, which afterwards, by degrees produced vitious humors, and nee and fo broke forth into at; and Trincavelliys Lib, 11..de curand, rat. particul. affett. cap. 11. reports, that a certain Woman brought forth .a Child fick of the French Difeafe: and every where ful of crufty Ulcers, whenas fhe herfelf never had any fign of that Difeafe contraGed, but was alwaies wholly wel, and onthe contrary it may happen, that one may have a French Ulcer, which yet, when that Malignity \is diftroyed, is nolonger rightly faid to be Gallical, but.is cured by vulgar Medi- cines.as other Ulcers. | : ats de ets st Al which being thus, we conceive the the Venera Difeafe,, doth not Only exift in the Humors, but alfo in the living parts, and that.it-doth confift not only in the change of the firft qualities, but alfo there is an occule malignant quality im- printed on the parts, and therefore the veneral Difeafe is to be referred.to difeafes,, and chofe of occult qualities... Which are called by Pernelins difeafes.of the whol fubftance, but not on every. part rightly explained, .as we havefaid before, the which if Capivaccius, and Saxonia had known, the one would not have de-. fined this evil by the excrement, nor the other by the caufe,, .if the fame-alfohad “2 beenknown to Aurelivs Minadous, he would not have endeavoured to main Luann eta= tain that this evil was no Difeafe, but an external error... For whereas he endéa- mination of vors to prove that the veneral Difeafe is nota Difeafe of the fimilar parts; becaufe é“relius itisnotadiftemper, nor.an evil compofition,nor a folution of unity, inthis proof Minadous he labots.to no purpofe, for.alchis wewillingly grant; but.this he ought to (P#st0ne prove, thatthere is no other kind. of Difeafe in the fimilar parts befides the diftem+ per of che firft qualities . but that there>are {ach difeafes,:: which: Fernelins calls of the whol fubftance, we more rightly, of occule qualities,' is fufficiently proved above, part 1. and this very Difeafe,, as all other venenate Difeafes do fhew, chat it can be referred to no other kind chanto malignant qualities; & this follows ftom ‘Minadous his own fuppofition, and confeffion, which hehath Cap: 20. :where he writes, that the Veneral virulency hath power not only ro:infe@ al Humots; but al parts of the body, and to corrupt and convert: them to itsown fimilituded(: The fame ‘Minadows if he had knownthefe Difeafes, had nor cakenfomuch pains, to what kind of preternatural things the veneral virulency.ougheto be referred. For ficft of al there was no.need of excluding fromithe number of caufesy thole vitious Humors, which arefound in the bodies fick:of the veneral Difeafe, and have.po+ wer to alter and change the Humors themfelves and partsof the body... Por ~ whereas he faith, that 1s properly the caufe,’ between’ which'and:the a@ion hutt the difeafe doth interceed, that is true of the next caufe, but the'antecedént caufés alfo may do hurt, as they have the Nature of a vitious objet, and external Error® and in this very Difeafe whiles.che virulent Humors do imprinta malignantquas lity on he parts, “between them and the action hurt that Malignant difpofition and occult quality doth intercede.’ Therefore whereas he thinks that Humor of venenate vapour in the .veneral difeafe, doth imediacely hurt the action, is fale, unlefschat humor have the nature ofian externalerror.
