A28944	Certain physiological essays and other tracts written at distant times, and on several occasions by the honourable Robert Boyle ; wherein some of the tracts are enlarged by experiments and the work is increased by the addition of a discourse about the absolute rest in bodies.	Boyle, Robert, 1627-1691.	1669 (1669)	Wing B3930; ESTC R17579	210,565	356

intimate_v some_o of_o the_o reason_n why_o we_o be_v unwilling_a to_o confine_v ourselves_o to_o the_o epicurean_a notion_n we_o hope_v it_o will_v the_o less_o be_v dislike_v that_o we_o think_v

the_o littleness_n of_o the_o body_n that_o compose_v it_o for_o in_o big_a parcel_n of_o matter_n beside_o the_o great_a inequality_n or_o roughness_n that_o be_v usual_a upon_o their_o surface_n and_o may_v hinder_v the_o easy_a slide_n of_o those_o body_n along_o one_o another_o and_o beside_o that_o diverse_a other_o affection_n of_o a_o fluid_a body_n can_v well_o belong_v to_o a_o aggregate_v of_o gross_a lump_n of_o matter_n beside_o these_o thing_n i_o say_v the_o bulk_n itself_o be_v apt_a to_o make_v they_o so_o heavy_a that_o they_o can_v be_v agitate_a by_o the_o power_n of_o those_o cause_n whatever_o they_o be_v that_o make_v the_o minute_n part_n of_o fluid_a body_n move_v so_o free_o up_o and_o down_o among_o themselves_o whereas_o it_o will_v scarce_o be_v

chemical_a experiment_n but_o we_o see_v that_o lead_n quicksilver_n and_o even_o gold_n itself_o though_o whilst_o they_o be_v of_o a_o sensible_a bulk_n they_o will_v ready_o sink_v to_o the_o bottom_n of_o aqua_fw-la regis_fw-la or_o any_o other_o such_o liquor_n yet_o when_o the_o menstruum_fw-la have_v corrode_v they_o or_o fret_v they_o asunder_o into_o very_a minute_n part_n those_o minute_n corpuscle_n grow_v then_o so_o much_o more_o capable_a of_o agitation_n than_o before_o that_o quit_v the_o bottom_n of_o the_o liquor_n they_o be_v carry_v free_o every_o way_n and_o to_o the_o top_n with_o the_o associate_v part_n of_o the_o liquor_n without_o fall_v back_o again_o to_o the_o bottom_n nay_o we_o see_v that_o ponderous_a and_o mineral_n body_n divide_v into_o corpuscle_n small_a enough_o may_v be_v make_v so_o light_a and_o voluble_a as_o to_o become_v ingredient_n even_o of_o distil_a liquor_n as_o we_o may_v learn_v by_o what_o some_o chemist_n call_v the_o butter_n other_o simple_o the_o oil_n and_o other_o the_o oleum_fw-la glaciale_a of_o antimony_n which_o though_o it_o be_v after_o rectification_n a_o very_a limpid_a liquor_n yet_o do_v in_o great_a part_n consist_v of_o the_o very_a body_n of_o the_o antimony_n as_o may_v appear_v not_o to_o mention_v its_o weight_n by_o this_o that_o it_o be_v most_o easy_a to_o precipitate_v out_o of_o it_o with_o fair_a water_n store_n of_o a_o ponderous_a white_a calx_fw-la reducible_a by_o art_n to_o a_o antimonial_a glass_n nay_o we_o make_v a_o menstruum_fw-la with_o which_o we_o can_v easy_o at_o the_o first_o or_o second_o distillation_n bring_v over_o gold_n enough_o to_o make_v the_o distil_a liquor_n appear_v and_o continue_v ennoble_v with_o a_o golden_a colour_n and_o to_o show_v yet_o more_o particular_o that_o great_a body_n be_v too_o unwieldy_a to_o constitute_v fluid_a one_o we_o may_v further_o observe_v how_o as_o well_o nature_n as_o art_n when_o either_o of_o they_o make_v body_n of_o considerable_a bulk_n fluid_a be_v wont_n in_o order_n thereunto_o to_o make_v a_o comminution_n of_o they_o as_o we_o may_v observe_v in_o divers_a example_n sect_n vi_o thus_o
