description: Ars medica non in suis finibus solis cohibetixr, socialis est, plus minusve omnibus scientiis conjuncta ; hon illicite et indigne ad ostentationem, sed aperte, liberaliter, dignissimeque ad utilitatem; nam hae auxilio illi sunt tiitelaeque iit artus corpori. Amplitudine hac nostrse artis, pro libertate lata quam praebet argumenti seligendi disputationis inauguralis secundum leges hujus almrn academiae, mihi gratuloh Omnium scientiarum nullse quam Physiologia et Chemia, arti nostrm magis directe et intime in fcedere devinctse sunt. Omniumque materiarum de quibus hae versantur paucae si aliquae plusquam Sanguis, miri, commodi, morfientique habent. Sanguis hinc, ut oportuit, saeculis omnibus, inquisitiones plurimas excitavit; plurima de eo proinde inventa, nihilominus, non exhaustus, quaedam etiam manent incerta, quaedam ignota. Senecm observatio, causa valde diversa reddita, hic etiam apta est. " Patet omnibus veritas non- " dum est occupata, multum ex illa etiarn " futuris relictum est." Intima conjunctio qua Physiologia et Chcmia cum. arte medica sociantur ;• Sanguinis usus, uti huraoris. animalis, morborumque causis. et. effectibus adjuoctissimi; ille ipse hucusque. imperfecte cognitus, facilitasque prseserfcim eum periculis subjiciendi,—iubc quidem incitamenta sunt qure ad hoe argumentum seligendum me impulerunt, Propositum mihi simplex breveque est et uti spero, non omnino inutile erit, vel occasioni ineptum. Orationem florentem in laudem dotum functionumque mirabilium hujus humoris, vel historiam generalem, ingredi non audebo; ambo multum exigunt, illud plus eloquentiae quam quod plerisque contingit, hoc temporis spatiique plurimum. Concilium humilius mihi; investigationi per pericula factas de Sangtiinis qualitatibus paucis, tribusque preecipue, nempe calore; coagiilatione et gravitate specijica me continebo. Et inter descriptionem exituum verba excellentissima Tui.i.n non obliviscar: " Opinionum commenta delet dies, " naturae judicia confirmat "necnon ejusdem auctoris divini sententiam, " Nihil est " veritatis lucc tlulcius/' # ## ### ## # The medical art is not limited to its own limits, it is social, more or less, for all sciences combined hon illegally and unworthily for display but openly, liberally, and dignified to benefit; for these are their help and their titles the frame went to the body. With this amplitude of our art, for the wide freedom which it affords the topic of the selection of the inaugural debate according to the laws of this almrn academy, congratulations to me. Of all the sciences none but Physiology and chemistry, our art more directly and intimately they were defeated in giving way. And everything of the matters of which these are concerned are a few if any more than Blood, wonderful, convenient, and they have died. Blood from here, as it was necessary, throughout the ages, for many investigations raised up; therefore most of it was found nevertheless, not exhausted, some even they remain uncertain, some unknown. An old man observation, a very different case is rendered here is also suitable. "It is clear to all that the truth is not " while she is busy, much of her etiarn "It is left to the future." The intimate conjunction which Physiology and Chcmia when They are associated with the medical art; • Blood use, as a hurler of animals and diseases reasons and the effects of the adjuvant; he himself so far imperfectly known and facilitated to subject him to the dangers of prseserfcim, Indeed, there are incentives that lead to the argument They urged me to choose. A flourishing speech in praise of the endowment and wonderful functions of this humour, or general history, I will not venture to enter; both require much, the latter more eloquence than what happens to most people at this time and a great deal of space. A lower council to me investigation by the dangers made of the Sangtiini with a few qualities, three in particular, namely by heat; coagulation and specific gravity I will restrain myself. And among the description of the results I will not forget your most excellent words: "Opinions will delete the comments of the day, "he confirms the judgments of nature" and not the same the divine author's opinion, "There is nothing" more beautiful than the truth.
