Examples

“Sanies clara. Quia materia tantum exit per illa parva vaſa non verò per magna ulcera , talia ſine causâ recrudeſcentia ſemper habent ſedem in pinguedine , cum verò pinguedo ſola ſit ſedes ulcerum hinc ibi facile fieri poſſunt.”

Of the presence of clear pus. Because pus only comes out through small vessels and not greater ulcers; when ulcers suddenly break open again they are always in the fat, and since fat is the only place ulcers may be found, we most expect them there.
