elizabethan people suffer from some afflictions that no longer exist in modern england. plague is the obvious example but it is by no means the only one. sweating sickness kills tens of thousands of people on its first appearance in 1485 and periodically thereafter. it is a terrifying disease because sufferers die within hours. it doesn’t return after a particularly bad outbreak in 1556 but people do not know whether it has gone for good; they still fear it, and it continues to be part of the medical landscape for many years.

it lists diseases found only in modern england.
it describes the plague in great detail.
it gives a description of the english landscape.
