of_o taste_n at_o first_o may_v seem_v strange_a but_o we_o must_v consider_v that_o vegetable_n receive_v their_o juice_n from_o mineral_n to_o prove_v this_o i_o need_v only_a instance_n in_o hepatica_fw-la terrestris_fw-la which_o smell_v of_o a_o petroleum_n and_o mineral_n have_v their_o acid_n sweet_a slimy_a and_o bitter_a taste_n out_o of_o these_o the_o juice_n for_o vegetable_n

must_v far_o observe_v that_o animal_n have_v their_o sweet_a bitter_a salt_n and_o acrid_a taste_n from_o vegetable_n which_o by_o putrefaction_n acquire_v a_o animal_n nature_n yield_v urinous_a spirit_n and_o all_o vegetable_n become_v fit_a nourishment_n for_o animal_n by_o their_o fermentation_n in_o the_o stomach_n many_o marine_a plant_n such_o as_o sponge_n have_v a_o middle_a state_n of_o principle_n betwixt_o vegetable_n and_o animal_n and_o therefore_o yield_v a_o volatile_a salt_n like_o animal_n and_o fix_v like_o vegetable_n i_o will_v give_v one_o instance_n from_o the_o
