What is the disease called that is being described here in 1649? The patient was a boy who passed black urine and who, at the age of fourteen years, was submitted to a drastic course of treatment which had for its aim the subduing of the fiery heat of his viscera, which was supposed to bring about the condition in question by charring and blackening his bile. Among the measures prescribed were bleed- ings, purgation, baths, a cold and watery diet and drugs galore.
