strong_a poison_n now_o by_o the_o former_a of_o these_o author_n it_o be_v assert_v to_o be_v a_o oily_a acid_n and_o by_o the_o latter_a who_o be_v a_o profound_a judicious_a man_n it_o be_v

because_o he_o there_o class_n all_o balsam_n and_o sulphur_n among_o acid_n so_o that_o all_o the_o prejudice_n that_o a_o sublimed_a acid_n can_v do_v may_v be_v do_v by_o mr._n john_n colbatch_n his_o acid._n from_o page_n the_o 21_o to_o the_o 25._o he_o reckon_v up_o all_o the_o good_a effect_n of_o oil_n of_o vitriol_n but_o mention_n not_o the_o mischief_n that_o may_v be_v do_v with_o

take_v upon_o i_o to_o describe_v their_o excellency_n it_o will_v be_v fit_a for_o a_o volume_n than_o a_o appendix_n but_o if_o he_o have_v cast_v out_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o his_o stuff_n that_o he_o have_v put_v in_o and_o which_o be_v bring_v in_o by_o the_o head_n and_o shoulder_n and_o have_v no_o relation_n to_o his_o discourse_n only_o to_o fill_v it_o up_o he_o may_v have_v have_v

objection_n be_v how_o come_v it_o to_o pass_v those_o people_n that_o live_v upon_o nothing_o almost_o but_o high_o salt_v meat_n be_v more_o trouble_v with_o the_o scurvy_a to_o this_o he_o answer_v that_o it_o be_v not_o because_o they_o eat_v more_o salt_n but_o because_o they_o eat_v more_o flesh_n than_o other_o people_n which_o abound_v with_o alkalious_a particle_n and_o as_o for_o the_o sea_n salt_n be_v most_o carry_v off_o by_o urin._n but_o to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o if_o it_o be_v not_o the_o acid_n sea_n salt_n then_o fresh_a beef_n will_v soon_o create_v the_o scurvy_a than_o salt_n because_o according_a to_o he_o it_o be_v alkalious_a altogether_o and_o not_o be_v temper_v with_o the_o sea_n salt_n it_o will_v increase_v the_o alkaly_n of_o the_o blood_n i_o think_v more_o but_o for_o my_o part_n i_o be_o sure_a beef_n be_v nothing_o like_o a_o alkaly_n for_o as_o much_o as_o i_o and_o all_o the_o world_n beside_o can_v discern_v it_o abound_v with_o a_o sweet_a balsamic_a juice_n the_o mass_n of_o blood_n but_o that_o mass_n of_o blood_n abound_v with_o alkaly_n he_o will_v say_v but_o then_o he_o must_v remember_v what_o he_o say_v the_o seven_o page_n of_o his_o appendix_n viz._n that_o all_o oleaginous_a balsamick_n be_v to_o be_v reckon_v among_o acid_n and_o then_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o the_o taste_n of_o the_o blood_n be_v sweet_a and_o balsamic_n it_o must_v be_v reckon_v among_o acid_n so_o that_o our_o quicksighted_n reformer_n of_o physic_n have_v once_o more_o contradict_v himself_o but_o suppose_v beef_n to_o be_v alkaly_n it_o will_v be_v no_o more_o for_o his_o purpose_n because_o page_n 59_o of_o his_o essay_n he_o say_v that_o a_o mixture_n of_o acid_n with_o alkaly_n cause_v a_o coagulation_n so_o that_o acid_n and_o alkaly_n thus_o carry_v into_o the_o blood_n together_o must_v thicken_v the_o blood_n but_o then_o that_o this_o distemper_n may_v by_o all_o mean_n proceed_v from_o alkaly_n he_o will_v suppose_v the_o accid_n to_o run_v off_o by_o urinal_n still_o he_o be_v never_o the_o better_a for_o in_o that_o same_o page_n of_o his_o essay_n it_o appear_v that_o as_o long_o as_o the_o alkaly_n be_v not_o mix_v with_o acid_n there_o be_v no_o coagulation_n till_o it_o be_v impregnate_v by_o drink_v wine_n from_o whence_o it_o appear_v that_o if_o the_o acid_n be_v so_o carry_v off_o there_o will_v be_v no_o such_o coagulation_n in_o scrobutic_a serum_n have_v show_v how_o he_o contradict_v himself_o backward_o and_o forward_o in_o answer_n to_o this_o first_o objection_n i_o shall_v pass_v to_o the_o second_o the_o second_o objection_n be_v how_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o when_o the_o stomach_n abound_v with_o acid_n the_o blood_n do_v not_o he_o answer_v the_o meat_n we_o eat_v be_v dissolve_v by_o a_o spirituous_a acid_n juice_n it_o be_v turn_v into_o a_o substance_n for_o the_o nutrition_n of_o our_o body_n and_o that_o this_o in_o people_n that_o live_v a_o sedentary_a life_n lie_v too_o long_o in_o the_o stomach_n be_v turn_v acid_n but_o this_o be_v no_o answer_n to_o the_o question_n it_o only_o tell_v we_o how_o the_o stomach_n become_v full_a of_o acid_n but_o how_o come_v it_o to_o pass_v then_o that_o when_o the_o stomach_n be_v empty_v of_o this_o acid_n stuff_n part_n of_o it_o be_v not_o squeeze_v through_o the_o lacteal_v into_o the_o blood_n true_o he_o can_v give_v no_o reason_n for_o it_o so_o that_o the_o blood_n must_v needs_o according_a to_o the_o course_n and_o tendency_n of_o chyle_n be_v taint_v with_o that_o acidity_n the_o three_o objection_n be_v that_o this_o acid_n be_v keep_v from_o go_v into_o the_o blood_n will_v according_a to_o he_o prevent_v distemper_n he_o answer_v that_o people_n who_o be_v trouble_v with_o acidity_n in_o their_o stomach_n make_v great_a quantity_n of_o water_n be_v very_o lean_a and_o costive_a which_o he_o will_v prove_v to_o be_v because_o acid_n be_v not_o carry_v into_o the_o blood_n and_o first_o when_o we_o make_v water_n much_o the_o attenuate_v chyle_n run_v off_o by_o vessel_n which_o carry_v it_o from_o the_o stomach_n to_o the_o kidney_n through_o the_o omentum_fw-la which_o prevent_v it_o from_o go_v into_o the_o blood_n and_o from_o page_n 39_o to_o the_o 40_o he_o will_v suggest_v that_o there_o be_v such_o vessel_n for_o it_o to_o pass_v off_o by_o second_o the_o reason_n why_o people_n be_v so_o lean_a be_v because_o the_o acid_n chyle_n so_o dilute_v be_v carry_v off_o and_o the_o oily_a particle_n of_o the_o blood_n want_v acid_n to_o thicken_v they_o and_o to_o turn_v they_o into_o fat._n three_o the_o reason_n why_o they_o be_v costive_a be_v because_o so_o much_o moisture_n turn_v off_o by_o urinal_n the_o excrement_n be_v harden_v and_o the_o gut_n want_v moisture_n to_o lubricate_v they_o to_o this_o objection_n he_o give_v no_o direct_a answer_n no_o not_o so_o much_o as_o a_o false_a one_o for_o what_o he_o offer_v for_o a_o answer_n be_v so_o far_o from_o be_v one_o that_o it_o have_v not_o the_o least_o relation_n to_o the_o objection_n as_o he_o explain_v it_o for_o the_o objection_n relate_v to_o distemper_n in_o the_o blood_n whereas_o as_o he_o explain_v those_o three_o phaenomena_n they_o be_v not_o distemper_n of_o the_o blood_n for_o he_o make_v acidity_n in_o the_o stomach_n the_o cause_n of_o too_o much_o urinal_n and_o of_o costiveness_n and_o as_o for_o leanness_n the_o more_o oily_a and_o sulphureous_a the_o blood_n be_v the_o fat_a be_v the_o body_n and_o according_a to_o he_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o this_o appendix_n page_n the_o seven_o the_o more_o acid_n it_o be_v and_o consequent_o can_v find_v any_o inconveniency_n by_o his_o new_a reason_n of_o make_v too_o much_o water_n for_o though_o the_o acid_n run_v off_o by_o urinal_n and_o never_o come_v into_o the_o blood_n yet_o since_o the_o blood_n abound_v with_o fat_a particle_n accord_v to_o he_o it_o will_v not_o want_v acid_n but_o as_o i_o have_v often_o take_v notice_n of_o he_o already_o so_o i_o may_v still_o that_o contradiction_n and_o incoherency_n be_v natural_a to_o he_o and_o we_o may_v expect_v nothing_o else_o from_o he_o but_o i_o shall_v not_o only_o show_v how_o that_o his_o answer_n be_v not_o direct_v to_o the_o objection_n but_o that_o he_o explain_v those_o symptom_n he_o mention_n very_o false_o and_o first_o the_o reason_n why_o people_n who_o have_v acidity_n on_o their_o stomach_n make_v much_o water_n can_v be_v because_o the_o acid_n chyle_n be_v carry_v off_o by_o such_o passage_n as_o he_o suppose_v because_o there_o be_v no_o such_o passage_n to_o be_v discover_v for_o not_o all_o the_o anatomist_n nor_o glass_n can_v ever_o as_o yet_o discern_v the_o least_o footstep_n of_o they_o and_o if_o there_o be_v such_o vessel_n as_o he_o suppose_v to_o convey_v so_o much_o urinal_n into_o the_o bladder_n they_o must_v be_v of_o a_o considerable_a size_n

the_o body_n sweat_v etc._n etc._n may_v be_v say_v not_o to_o be_v excrement_n of_o the_o body_n but_o of_o the_o blood_n but_o that_o sweat_n and_o tear_n be_v not_o alkaly_n but_o acid_n any_o

that_o what_o he_o allege_v in_o his_o own_o defence_n be_v strong_a proof_n against_o he_o and_o i_o have_v also_o add_v a_o great_a many_o plain_a and_o obvious_a observation_n whereby_o it_o be_v
