But by the leave of this excellent Author, I humbly conceive, that a Fever proceedeth from the unnatural intelline motion ofthe Blood, as it is made up of different Liquors, and Elc- is not carried to the Brain by Veins, but by Nerves .(Wlllcll he afterinllances Nerves, muft neccll'arily refill the retrograde Motion ofthc 'PM, or_elle.a contrary Motion of different Humors, mull be admitted at the fame time in‘ the fame vefl‘els, which I humbly conceive impheth a Contradic'tron, that the nervous I iquor {hould have a Flux from the Bram, and the purulent Matter to it, at the fame time through the fame Nerves. About the middle of the laid Paragraph, the Renowned Author faith, that the Heart is little or nothing affected with the paffage of the rPut, which is tranfmitted to the RightVentriclc, by the veins of the (Plum: and Cam, and not by Nerves to the Brain 5 and with deference to this Author, that] am not of his Opinion, becaufc I have feen one Mr. Etbim, a Patient ofmine, , If the Chyme being crude, and not eafy to be aflimilated, mecteth with fibinvdhgffs} tricle ofthe Heart, and from thence through the delcendent Trunk ofthe Aorta, Emulgent Artery, Vein, and Urerers into the Bladder, ~and from Fever.
