Of the Signs and Symptoms of a too relaxed, loose and tender State of Nerves

§. I. THOSE who have weak, loose, and seeble or relax'd Nerves, have generally a small, weak, languid, and sometimes an intermittent Pulse. Excrcise, strong Liquors, high Food, or that which is hard to digest, or too great a Quantity of these laft, taken down, quicken and accelerate the Pulse, and discover a Labour and Struggle in the Circulation. The Strokes of such a Pulse are seldom clean and free, and sometimes quite stopt and interrupted for some small time; especially in great Lowness, Fainting or Fits; and, at best, are like a Force not apply'd at once, but by straining, and struggling, and flow Degrees.
