saliens_fw-la or_o heart_n be_v derive_v from_o the_o egg_n the_o egg_n from_o the_o hen_n and_o the_o hen_n fertility_n from_o the_o cock_n another_o requisite_a or_o condition_n of_o the_o primary_n

needs_o be_v mix_v too_o now_o i_o therefore_o pronounce_v their_o issue_n to_o be_v of_o a_o mix_a nature_n because_o the_o mixture_n of_o both_o parent_n be_v refulgent_a in_o it_o both_o in_o the_o

happen_v unto_o it_o for_o instance_n in_o a_o mule_n the_o soul_n body_n manner_n and_o voice_n of_o both_o parent_n viz._n of_o the_o mare_n and_o the_o ass_n be_v apparent_a so_o also_o in_o

therefore_o that_o which_o frame_v the_o chicken_n in_o the_o egg_n be_v a_o mix_a nature_n as_o be_v unite_v or_o compound_v of_o both_o and_o the_o work_n of_o both_o parent_n and_o if_o any_o

efficient-instrument_n produce_v a_o chicken_n of_o a_o mix_a nature_n also_o the_o contagion_n i_o say_v because_o aristotle_n persuasion_n be_v altogether_o refractory_a to_o experience_n herself_o namely_o where_o he_o say_v that_o some_o part_n of_o the_o foetus_fw-la be_v instant_o make_v upon_o coition_n nor_o be_v that_o true_a neither_o which_o some_o of_o the_o modern_n aver_v namely_o that_o the_o soul_n of_o the_o future_a chicken_n be_v in_o the_o egg_n for_o that_o be_v no_o whit_n the_o chicken_n soul_n which_o be_v in_o no_o part_n of_o the_o chicken_n body_n nor_o can_v the_o
