that_o meat_n be_v more_o necessary_a since_o that_o be_v more_o necessary_a which_o supply_v that_o substance_n which_o be_v lose_v and_o which_o may_v be_v a_o member_n or_o part_n of_o a_o member_n of_o the_o body_n constan_n of_o which_o nature_n be_v our_o meat_n according_a to_o the_o assertion_n of_o avicen_n but_o indeed_o constantinus_n be_v of_o the_o contrary_a opinion_n say_v that_o air_n be_v more_o necessary_a to_o the_o body_n prove_v the_o same_o both_o by_o reason_n and_o experience_n by_o reason_n thus_o life_n consist_v in_o natural_a heat_n because_o natural_a heat_n be_v the_o begin_v of_o life_n wherefore_o that_o thing_n which_o temper_v natural_a heat_n retain_v it_o in_o the_o natural_a temperature_n be_v more_o necessary_a but_o the_o air_n which_o by_o way_n of_o breathe_n we_o draw_v in_o be_v of_o such_o sort_n wherefore_o it_o be_v more_o necessary_a by_o experience_n thus_o if_o a_o man_n be_v sudden_o bring_v out_o of_o a_o stink_v close_a prison_n first_o he_o desire_v to_o take_v the_o fresh_a air_n and_o afterward_o call_v for_o meat_n and_o drink_v but_o against_o the_o reason_n first_o allege_v it_o may_v be_v answer_v negative_o for_o

air_n be_v more_o necessary_a to_o the_o preservation_n of_o life_n for_o that_o it_o respect_v the_o life_n principal_o and_o immediate_o second_o it_o may_v be_v demand_v which_o of_o the_o two_o

the_o first_o be_v that_o that_o be_v more_o necessary_a which_o restore_v the_o thing_n which_o be_v lose_v then_o that_o which_o serve_v only_o to_o convey_v the_o juice_n about_o all_o the_o body_n but_o meat_n be_v ordain_v to_o restore_v the_o part_n and_o drink_v to_o carry_v the_o meat_n about_o the_o body_n wherefore_o the_o conclusion_n be_v manifest_a and_o that_o drink_v be_v more_o greedy_o desire_v the_o reason_n be_v for_o that_o drink_n delay_v the_o vehemency_n of_o natural_a heat_n in_o which_o respect_n it_o be_v more_o necessary_a unto_o life_n then_o meat_n as_o be_v

second_o it_o mitigate_v the_o natural_a heat_n and_o preserve_v it_o in_o the_o just_a temperature_n and_o be_v thereby_o more_o necessary_a than_o meat_n wherefore_o any_o live_a creature_n can_v
