卷二·第十二章　病在身体哪一部位

CHAP. XII.

第十二章

How it may be knowne what part of the body is afflicted.

怎样得知身体哪一部分受病。

THat this may be knowne, for tis not onely possible, but also probable, be pleased to consider,

要得知这一点——因为这不但做得到，而且多半能做准——请考虑：

1 If the signe the Lord of the 6th possesseth, especially if he be an infortune, or a fortune infortunated. And then

一、第六宫主所占的星座，尤其当他是凶星，或是为凶星所伤的吉星时。然后

2 Consider what part of the body the signe he is in governs, as Aries governes the head, Taurus the neck and throat, &c. and be sure that part's afflicted.

二、考虑他所在的星座主身体哪一部分，如白羊主头，金牛主颈与喉，等等；可以确定那一部分受病。

3 Consider what parts of the body the afflicting Planet rules, which are under that signe, and you need not question but thats afflicted.; for example, Venus though she rule many parts of the body, yet in Scorpio she rules under the privities.

三、考虑施克之星所主、又归在那个星座之下的身体部分，你不必怀疑那里受病；例如金星虽然主身体许多部分，但在天蝎时，她主的是下身私处一带。

4 Saturne Lord of the 6th. and in the 10th. in Taurus afflicts the body universally, but especially the left side.

四、土星为第六宫主，在第十宫的金牛，全身普遍受病，但尤以左侧为甚。

5 Saturne Lord of the sixth in the last degrees of Gemini, or in the first degree of Cancer, causeth paine in the left side, as though an Awle were running to it.

五、土星为第六宫主，在双子的末几度，或在巨蟹第一度，引起左侧疼痛，好像有锥子往里扎。

6 Saturne Lord of the 6th. in Leo in the second house causeth pains in the back and heart; the originall of which saith my Author, is bloud, but I should rather thinke it Melancholy.

六、土星为第六宫主，在第二宫的狮子，引起背部与心脏疼痛；我那位作者说病源是血，但我倒以为是忧郁质。

7 If he bein Virgo the 12th. house, signifies paine in ths head; If he be in Mars orientall and slow in motion, signifies diseases in the Reines, as the gravell, stone and pissing bloud. I confesse I can give no reason for all this.

七、若他在处女、在第十二宫，主头痛；若他在火星之处，东出而行速迟缓，主肾的疾病，如砂、结石与尿血。我承认这一切我都说不出道理。

8 If Saturne be Lord of the disease and in Aquarius, the disease comes by travaile.

八、若土星是疾病之主而在水瓶，病由劳顿奔波而来。

9 Mars Lord of the 6th. and in the 5th. and in Scorpio gives an internall pain in all parts of the body; if it be a woman she is not well in her wombe, the illnesse of which afflicts all her body, especially her head, by reason of that admirable congruity betwixt that part and her wombe; kind women, take notice of it; for it is as true as that the Sun is up when he is upon the meridian. All Cephalick medicines helpe the wombe and remedy its griefe; I am confident you desire a reason of it, you shall not fail of your desires. It is because Aries and Scorpio are both the Houses of Mars.

九、火星为第六宫主，在第五宫，又在天蝎，造成全身各处的内痛；若是女人，她的子宫不适，这毛病累及全身，尤其是头，因为这一部分与子宫之间有那奇妙的契合；好心的妇人们，请留意这一点；它真得就像太阳在子午线上时天已大亮一样。一切治头的药都对子宫有益，能解它的病痛；我相信你想知道其中的道理，你的愿望不会落空。这是因为白羊与天蝎都是火星的庙。

10 If Mars be retrograde in Scorp io and in the Ascendent, the whole body is universally afflicted, but externally, viz. the man breaks out in boils and ulcers, or iteh, perhaps it is the small pox or measles; if Venus set forward the mischiefe, the French pox is shrewdly to be suspected.

十、若火星在天蝎逆行，又在上升点，全身普遍受病，但在外表，就是说，人身上长出疖子、溃疡或疥疮，也许是天花或麻疹；若金星推波助澜，就很有理由怀疑是法国病。

11 If Mars be Lord of the 6th. in Leo, the sick is extreamely pained in his back, in this you need never fear failing.

十一、若火星为第六宫主而在狮子，病人背部剧痛；这一条你永远不必怕失准。

12 If Mars be Lord of the 6th. in Virgo, my Author saith it will lye in the left side, or left legge; But after I had had halfe an houres talke with Dr. Experience, he proved to me it was alwayes the Colick, and heat in the bowels; take heed it comes not to the gravell in the kidneys, when Mars comes into Libra: and to the stone in the bladder, when Mars comes to Scorpio. He that is a Physician knowes as well how to prevent a disease before it comes, as how to remedy it when it is come.

十二、若火星为第六宫主而在处女，我那位作者说病在左侧或左腿；但我和经验博士谈了半个钟头之后，他向我证明那总是绞肠痛与肠中发热；要当心，火星进入天秤时，别让它变成肾中的砂，火星到天蝎时，别让它变成膀胱结石。一个医生既懂得病来之后怎样医治，也同样懂得病来之前怎样预防。

13 The Moon in the Ascendent afflicted by Saturne or Mars, bestowes difficulty of breathing, and infirmities in the lungs upon a man; I confesse I can give no reason for it.

十三、月亮在上升点，受土星或火星所克，使人呼吸困难、肺有病患；我承认我说不出道理。

14 Venus Lady of the 6th. and infortunated by Mars gives suspitions enough in the French pox.

十四、金星为第六宫主而为火星所伤，就足以令人怀疑是法国病。

Here is enough to teach you more; lot not all your wits lye in your books; be diligent and studious, or else you may happen to dye fools; let not all you wits lye in your books, but some in your heads; it is within you, and not that without you must do you good.

这些已够教你更多；别把你全部的才智都放在书里；要勤奋好学，不然你们可能到死都是傻瓜；别把你们全部的才智都放在书里，也要放一些在头脑里；对你有益的，是你里面的东西，不是你外面的。

As sor the side of the body afflicted, my Author hath left a few rules to know it, which I will declare to you, and leave them to the approbation or exprobration of Dr. Experience; they are these,

至于身体哪一侧受病，我那位作者留下几条判断规则，我把它们讲给你，交由经验博士去认可或驳斥；规则如下：

1 If the Lord of the sixth house be afflicted above the earth, and in a diurnall signe, the sicknesse is in the right side of the body, and in the upper part of it.

一、若第六宫主在地平之上受克，又在昼性星座，病在身体右侧，在上半身。

2 If the Lord of the 6th. be under the earth, and in a nocturnall signe, the sicknesse lyes in the inferiour parts of the body, and on the left side.

二、若第六宫主在地平之下，又在夜性星座，病在下半身，在左侧。

3 Whether he be under or above the earth in a diurnall, the sicknesse is in the forepart of the body, imagine the forehead, face, breast, belly, or some other visible part.

三、不论他在地平之下还是之上，只要在昼性星座，病就在身体前面，比如额头、脸、胸、腹，或别的看得见的部位。

4 If it be in a nocturnal sign, the disease lies in the backe parts of the body, or else in some part but lies invisible, as the bowels, &c or perhaps the disease lies occult; for take this for a generall rule, the diseases are more hid from the eyes of your understanding, when the significators of them are in nocturnall signes then they are when they are in Diurnall.

四、若在夜性星座，病在身体后面，或者在某个看不见的部位，如肠子等等；也或许病是隐伏的；因为请把这当作一条通则：疾病的征象星在夜性星座时，病比它们在昼性星座时更不易为你的理解之眼所见。

5 If the significators be corrupted by other Planets, and a difference in these rules between the significator and the planet that corrupts them, the patient is afflicted both wayes; namely according as he signifies, and according as the Planet corrupting signifies.

五、若征象星被别的行星所败坏，而征象星与败坏它的行星在这些规则上有所不同，病人两方面都受病；即照它所象征的，也照那颗败坏它的行星所象征的。

6 In such a case view diligently which of them is most afflicted: and your reason, if you have any, will tell you, that the most part of the malady lies in that part of the body signified by the Planet which is most afflicted.

六、遇到这种情形，要仔细看哪一颗受克最重；你的理智——如果你有的话——会告诉你，病的大部分就在受克最重的那颗行星所象征的身体部分。

7 To wind up all in a word; Masculine Planets denote the right side of the body, Feminine the left, all of them afflict that part of the body which they governe.

七、一句话总括：阳性行星表身体右侧，阴性行星表左侧，所有行星都侵害它们所主的那部分身体。
