    In 1636, Mtius Cletus, of Signia in Italy, publifhed his Treatife De Morbo ftrangula- torio (m). He mentions fome Fads relating to it, that had efcaped Sgambatus and Corte- fius, which will be taken Notice of hereafter. ' Marcus Aurelius Severinus, Profeftor of Anatomy and Surgery, and Phyfician to the Hofpital of Incurables at Naples, wrote a Differtation upon this Difeafe, under the Title of Pcedanchone Loimodes, feu de pejlilente ac prcefocante Pueros Abfcefju ; and annexed it to the fecond Edition of his Book De recon- dita Abfcejfuum Natura, which was printed in 1643 (r). From a Perfon of his Capacity, and Turnifhed with the beft Opportunities of feeing the Difeafe in every Stage and Condi¬ tion, we might reafonably have expeded fuch Obfervations as would enable one to form a juft Idea of this Diftemper ; but we meet with little of this Kind in his Performance. He has indeed mentioned fome Circumftances re¬ lating (m) De morbo ftrangulatorio, opus JEtii Cletl Signing do£toris medici et philofophi. Romes 1636, Svo.
