distemper_n viz._n that_o the_o spirit_n be_v ready_a for_o explosion_n when_o they_o be_v contain_v within_o the_o nervous_a pipe_n one_o or_o more_o as_o so_o many_o little_a distinct_a tube_n they_o require_v a_o sufficient_a ample_a space_n in_o which_o they_o may_v be_v able_a very_o much_o and_o indeed_o successive_o to_o be_v rarify_v and_o expanded_a which_o thing_n because_o it_o can_v be_v easy_o perform_v within_o the_o trunk_n of_o the_o nerve_n from_o the_o begin_n towards_o the_o end_n therefore_o while_o the_o spirit_n about_o the_o nervous_a origine_fw-la be_v first_o strike_v off_o leap_z back_z towards_o the_o encephalon_n for_o that_o cause_n they_o stir_v up_o the_o vertigo_n 22._o the_o more_o open_a explosion_n of_o the_o spirit_n for_o the_o most_o part_n begin_v about_o the_o inferior_a passage_n of_o the_o nerve_n or_o at_o their_o extremity_n where_o the_o trunk_n of_o the_o nerve_n be_v either_o dilate_v into_o more_o open_a folding_n or_o

of_o other_o into_o the_o same_o space_n or_o their_o progress_n towards_o the_o exterior_a part_n be_v intercept_v the_o convulsion_n be_v wont_a to_o be_v hinder_v that_o it_o can_v ascend_v

we_o may_v judicious_o think_v that_o the_o congelation_n be_v cause_v by_o the_o paroxysm_n itself_o because_o in_o convulsive_a motion_n and_o immoderate_a contraction_n of_o the_o nerve_n and_o
