and_o contrariwise_o often_o time_n there_o be_v no_o clamminess_n in_o choleric_a humour_n which_o cause_n a_o dysentery_n and_o therefore_o he_o think_v that_o the_o humour_n which_o produce_v a_o

the_o expulsion_n therefore_o of_o small_a pox_n and_o measles_n be_v cause_v by_o a_o ebullition_n of_o the_o blood_n which_o ebullition_n according_a to_o avicennas_n doctrine_n be_v twofold_a the_o
