creature_n depend_v on_o it_o therefore_o nature_n preserve_v it_o long_o from_o disease_n and_o as_o soon_o as_o the_o heart_n be_v ill-affected_a the_o body_n droop_v 6._o sensitive_a creature_n can_v live_v some_o without_o lung_n some_o without_o a_o spleen_n some_o without_o kidney_n some_o without_o a_o gall_n some_o without_o a_o bladder_n but_o none_o can_v live_v without_o the_o heart_n or_o something_o answer_v to_o the_o heart_n as_o bloudless_a animal_n 7._o the_o heart_n be_v admirable_a in_o its_o motion_n if_o either_o we_o consider_v the_o manner_n or_o perpetuity_n thereof_o or_o that_o it_o be_v of_o itself_o not_o depend_v upon_o our_o will_n or_o pleasure_n ii_o the_o action_n of_o our_o member_n depend_v original_o from_o the_o temperament_n of_o the_o simular_a part_n but_o in_o respect_n of_o perfection_n and_o consummation_n from_o the_o conformity_n and_o right_a situation_n of_o the_o organ_n so_o the_o temperament_n of_o the_o crystalline_a humour_n be_v the_o efficient_a cause_n of_o sight_n but_o the_o situation_n and_o conformity_n of_o the_o part_n of_o the_o eye_n be_v the_o perfect_a or_o consummate_v cause_n for_o if_o the_o

as_o nerve_n bone_n vein_n etc._n etc._n but_o sanguineal_a only_a be_v plain_a by_o these_o reason_n ●_o to_o make_v more_o material_a cause_n then_o one_o be_v to_o multiply_v entity_n needless_o whereas_o the_o menstruous_a blood_n be_v sufficient_a matter_n for_o all_o the_o part_n which_o because_o it_o be_v the_o matter_n of_o our_o body_n it_o have_v a_o inclination_n disposition_n or_o potentiality_n to_o all_o part_n and_o because_o the_o work_n to_o be_v produce_v be_v heterogeneous_a and_o the_o form_n heterogeneous_a therefore_o the_o matter_n have_v a_o heterogeneous_a potentiality_n as_o well_o to_o those_o part_n which_o the_o physician_n call_v spermatical_a as_o to_o the_o sanguineal_a 2._o i_o will_v know_v which_o be_v the_o spermatical_a part_n of_o a_o egg_n

the_o reason_n be_v alike_o in_o both_o 3._o the_o spermatical_a part_n be_v nourish_v by_o the_o blood_n then_o doubtless_o they_o be_v generate_v of_o blood_n for_o iisdem_fw-la nutrimur_fw-la ex_fw-la quibus_fw-la constamus_fw-la and_o there_o can_v be_v no_o nourishment_n without_o transition_n and_o transinutation_n of_o the_o blood_n into_o the_o part_n nourish_v now_o to_o say_v that_o the_o blood_n which_o nourish_v these_o part_n become_v seed_n or_o spermatical_a be_v to_o employ_v the_o testicle_n in_o continual_a work_n of_o seed_n for_o nutrition_n of_o the_o spermatical_a part_n how_o can_v so_o much_o seed_n be_v generate_v and_o by_o what_o vessel_n shall_v they_o be_v carry_v to_o the_o upper_a part_n of_o the_o body_n 4._o the_o heart_n and_o liver_n be_v sanguineal_a part_n then_o doubtless_o the_o nerve_n artery_n and_o vein_n which_o be_v from_o they_o be_v sanguineal_a iv._o the_o bone_n nerve_n artery_n vein_n and_o grissle_n be_v cut_v or_o

while_o they_o be_v soft_a and_o moist_a they_o be_v easy_o reunite_v and_o the_o vein_n which_o be_v soft_a than_o the_o artery_n be_v soon_o heal_v for_o the_o hardness_n thickness_n and_o perpetual_a motion_n of_o the_o artery_n hinder_v its_o coalition_n 2._o likewise_o where_o there_o be_v defect_n of_o natural_a heat_n as_o in_o old_a man_n these_o be_v hardly_o knit_v together_o for_o heat_n be_v the_o chief_a artificer_n or_o agent_n in_o the_o body_n 3._o and_o where_o there_o be_v defect_n of_o matter_n or_o radical_a moisture_n the_o cure_n be_v difficult_a as_o in_o

the_o cure_n can_v be_v perform_v v._o the_o spermatical_a part_n by_o most_o be_v count_v cold_a than_o the_o sanguineal_a which_o can_v be_v for_o we_o find_v by_o experience_n that_o there_o be_v more_o heat_n in_o the_o stomach_n then_o in_o the_o liver_n for_o it_o be_v a_o great_a heat_n that_o turn_v bone_n or_o such_o hard_a meat_n into_o a_o liquid_a substance_n than_o this_o which_o turn_v our_o liquid_a substance_n into_o another_o to_o wit_n the_o chylus_n into_o blood_n if_o it_o be_v object_v that_o those_o creature_n who_o stomach_n be_v encompass_v with_o flesh_n concoct_v best_a i_o answer_v it_o be_v true_a not_o because_o the_o flesh_n be_v hot_a than_o the_o stomach_n but_o because_o it_o keep_v in_o the_o heat_n thus_o though_o our_o clothes_n keep_v in_o our_o heat_n no_o man_n will_v say_v that_o they_o be_v hot_a than_o we_o for_o this_o cause_n our_o bone_n and_o nerve_n be_v wrap_v about_o with_o flesh_n and_o yet_o these_o be_v hot_a than_o the_o flesh_n in_o their_o opinion_n that_o call_v they_o spermatical_a for_o they_o con●efs_n that_o the_o seed_n be_v hot_a than_o the_o blood_n therefore_o that_o which_o be_v generate_v of_o seed_n must_v needs_o be_v hot_a then_o that_o which_o be_v beget_v of_o blood_n if_o it_o be_v object_v that_o the_o seed_n be_v hot_a in_o respect_n of_o its_o spirit_n but_o cold_a in_o respect_n of_o its_o matter_n i_o answer_v that_o if_o the_o matter_n of_o the_o seed_n be_v not_o hot_a it_o can_v not_o so_o much_o abound_v in_o spirit_n for_o by_o the_o heat_n the_o spirit_n be_v beget_v and_o not_o heat_n by_o the_o spirit_n therefore_o when_o the_o heat_n fail_v the_o spirit_n fail_v hence_o it_o be_v that_o the_o animal_n spirit_n in_o the_o nerve_n move_v not_o the_o hand_n when_o it_o be_v benumb_v with_o cold_a but_o let_v the_o hand_n be_v warm_v and_o then_o the_o spirit_n have_v life_n again_o 2._o those_o part_n which_o they_o call_v spermatical_a be_v more_o sensible_a of_o the_o cold_a and_o soon_o offend_v by_o it_o then_o the_o sanguineal_a part_n and_o therefore_o must_v needs_o be_v hot_a for_o one_o contrary_a be_v most_o sensible_a of_o another_o thus_o be_v we_o more_o sensible_a of_o a_o little_a cold_a in_o summer_n when_o we_o be_v hot_a then_o of_o a_o great_a deal_n in_o winter_n southern_a people_n who_o blood_n be_v hot_a be_v soon_o offend_v with_o cold_a than_o the_o northern_a who_o constitution_n be_v cold_a 3._o the_o heat_n of_o the_o bladder_n which_o they_o call_v a_o spermatical_a part_n be_v so_o great_a that_o it_o can_v bake_v the_o slimy_a substance_n of_o the_o urine_n into_o a_o hard_a stone_n which_o argue_v we_o its_o heat_n above_o the_o sanguineal_a part_n some_o physician_n answer_n that_o this_o be_v do_v not_o because_o of_o the_o heat_n but_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o long_a stay_n and_o sliminess_n of_o the_o matter_n but_o they_o must_v know_v that_o the_o slimy_a matter_n be_v mere_o passive_a and_o that_o it_o be_v the_o heat_n which_o be_v the_o agent_n and_o artificer_n of_o the_o stone_n as_o for_o the_o long_a stay_n that_o be_v but_o a_o help_n for_o time_n be_v no_o agent_n 4._o that_o the_o bone_n be_v hot_a be_v manifest_a for_o they_o have_v much_o fat_a in_o they_o as_o we_o see_v in_o bone_n when_o they_o be_v burn_v and_o a_o great_a heat_n be_v require_v to_o bring_v they_o to_o that_o hardness_n than_o the_o ordinary_a heat_n of_o the_o sanguineal_a part_n vi_o the_o brain_n be_v not_o make_v for_o the_o skull_n but_o the_o skull_n for_o the_o brain_n therefore_o it_o be_v like_a they_o be_v form_v both_o together_o and_o that_o the_o skull_n be_v proportion_v to_o the_o bigness_n of_o the_o brain_n and_o not_o this_o to_o the_o bigness_n of_o the_o skull_n 2._o the_o brain_n and_o skull_n be_v place_v uppermost_o for_o the_o eye_n which_o be_v to_o be_v near_o the_o brain_n because_o of_o the_o spirit_n and_o optic_a neru_n which_o by_o reason_n of_o their_o softness_n be_v fit_a to_o be_v implant_v in_o the_o eye_n otherwise_o they_o have_v be_v too_o hard_o for_o the_o nerve_n be_v hard_a as_o it_o be_v far_o from_o the_o brain_n and_o no_o place_n be_v so_o fit_a for_o the_o eye_n which_o be_v to_o watch_v over_o the_o body_n as_o the_o

the_o sensitive_a faculty_n with_o they_o yet_o they_o be_v more_o sensible_a of_o the_o first_o then_o of_o the_o second_o quality_n 4._o the_o tooth_n be_v still_o grow_v because_o there_o be_v

in_o colour_n it_o will_v not_o therefore_o follow_v that_o blood_n have_v its_o first_o original_n from_o the_o liver_n but_o only_o that_o it_o be_v the_o receptacle_n and_o cystern_a of_o blood_n so_o the_o bag_n in_o which_o the_o gall_n lie_v have_v the_o same_o colour_n with_o the_o gall_n and_o yet_o this_o be_v generate_v in_o the_o liver_n and_o only_o contain_v in_o the_o bag_n and_o it_o be_v a_o question_n whether_o the_o liver_n colour_v the_o blood_n or_o the_o blood_n the_o liver_n 5._o in_o fear_n and_o sadness_n the_o blood_n retire_v into_o the_o heart_n which_o be_v by_o

beside_o that_o the_o artery_n do_v all_o along_o accompany_v the_o vein_n ii_o i_o see_v no_o reason_n why_o we_o may_v not_o affirm_v that_o the_o heart_n be_v continual_o in_o its_o diastole_n

be_v no_o more_o impossible_a than_o the_o continual_a motion_n of_o the_o heart_n and_o artery_n neither_o be_v it_o more_o absurd_a for_o perfect_a and_o imperfect_a blood_n to_o be_v mingle_v in_o
