A60273	Zymologia physica, or, A brief philosophical discourse of fermentation, from a new hypothesis of acidum and sulphur whereby the phœnomena of all natural hot-baths, the generation of minerals, the production of many acidulæ or spaw-waters, the grand apparances [sic] of heat, fire, and light ... are solv'd from the intestine duellings and inward collisions of the foresaid principles : whereby also various other subterraneal phœnomena ... are from the same doctrine of fermentation genuinely solv'd : with an additional discourse of the sulfur-bath at Knarsbrough / by W. Simpson ...	Simpson, William, M.D.	1675 (1675)	Wing S3840; ESTC R38923	82,913	200

for_o we_o try_v both_o and_o that_o in_o the_o same_o proportion_n and_o find_v the_o sulphur_n salt_n to_o cause_v a_o speedy_a separation_n and_o that_o in_o great_a quantity_n and_o the_o common_a
