acidity_n of_o the_o stomach_n and_o pancreatic_a juice_n so_o that_o the_o intestin_n want_v their_o natural_a stimulus_n the_o next_o objection_n he_o pretend_v to_o answer_n be_v why_o if_o acid_v cause_n such_o a_o dissolution_n of_o the_o chyle_n steel_n do_v not_o also_o make_v it_o run_v off_o by_o urin._n the_o answer_n he_o give_v to_o this_o be_v that_o iron_n can_v be_v convey_v into_o

that_o it_o be_v convey_v through_o vessel_n from_o thence_o to_o the_o kidney_n but_o here_o he_o have_v forget_v what_o he_o have_v before_o say_v and_o like_o one_o that_o have_v neither_o memory_n

but_o suppose_v steel_n to_o be_v a_o acid_n i_o do_v then_o see_v what_o difference_n there_o be_v betwixt_o the_o effect_n it_o will_v have_v to_o his_o advantage_n though_o alter_v as_o he_o say_v in_o the_o stomach_n for_o vitriol_n be_v a_o acid_n and_o a_o very_a strong_a one_o so_o that_o if_o steel_n will_v have_v such_o ill_a effect_n if_o acid_n he_o instead_o of_o answer_v the_o

the_o success_n of_o alkaly_n use_v in_o those_o distemper_n by_o physician_n for_o above_o a_o hundred_o year_n but_o since_o here_o he_o only_o give_v the_o history_n of_o five_o person_n in_o
