08.04.24: medical notes from 1631 [second post]

When reading, you don’t have to know every word; sometimes a single word or phrase can lead you to the answer.

The author lists these symptoms according to the day of the month:

prīmō: on the first (day)

secundō: on the second (day)

etc.

Here are some questions on the text:

Give the number of the day(s) on which the patient will:

1. barely escape with his life

2. barely recover (recuperate)

3. be sick for a long time

4. be violently ill

5. feel faint

6. finally recover

7. get better even if he’s elderly

8. have breathing difficulties

9. need medicine

10. quickly recover

11. rarely recover

12. recover after a long illness

13. struggle to avoid death

14. suddenly recover

15. suffer a short illness

16. will be slow to recover his former health
