or_o in_o that_o which_o depend_v upon_o the_o influx_n of_o the_o heart_n into_o the_o part_n a_o unequal_a distribution_n of_o blood_n indeed_o almost_o if_o not_o altogether_o perpetual_a may_v be_v observe_v in_o this_o affect_v nevertheless_o the_o chief_a reason_n of_o this_o inequality_n must_v be_v ascribe_v not_o to_o the_o inequasity_n of_o the_o influx_n of_o the_o heart_n or_o

we_o return_v to_o the_o solution_n of_o the_o argument_n and_o first_o we_o grant_v indeed_o that_o in_o this_o affect_v there_o be_v a_o unequal_a distribution_n of_o the_o blood_n and_o that_o in_o

xvi_o the_o cause_n of_o this_o disease_n incident_a to_o child_n after_o their_o birth_n we_o have_v note_v in_o the_o precedent_a chapter_n that_o infant_n from_o their_o first_o origin_n be_v

the_o same_o we_o shall_v now_o prosecute_v those_o cause_n which_o be_v apt_a to_o actuate_v that_o natural_a disposition_n after_o the_o birth_n or_o new_o and_o full_o to_o produce_v this_o

be_v sufficient_o intensive_a in_o their_o degree_n and_o therefore_o we_o confess_v that_o those_o child_n which_o be_v prone_a to_o this_o disease_n from_o their_o nativity_n be_v easy_o affect_v but_o that_o other_o which_o be_v free_a from_o all_o natural_a corruption_n fall_v not_o into_o the_o same_o but_o upon_o more_o potent_a cause_n and_o yet_o those_o cause_n be_v the_o same_o for_o their_o kind_n and_o differ_v only_o in_o the_o degree_n we_o therefore_o think_v it_o needless_a to_o speak_v of_o these_o thing_n distinct_o and_o apart_o it_o may_v suffice_v that_o we_o have_v speak_v of_o they_o indescriminate_o and_o together_o at_o the_o very_a entrance_n a_o question_n there_o be_v which_o importune_v a_o resolution_n namely_o whether_o contagion_n may_v be_v number_v among_o the_o cause_n of_o this_o disease_n and_o therefore_o whether_o this_o disease_n in_o a_o proper_a and_o right_a understanding_n be_v a_o contagious_a disease_n indeed_o he_o that_o consider_v

be_v otherwise_o to_o he_o that_o will_v consider_v it_o more_o intentive_o for_o although_o this_o disease_n may_v in_o some_o manner_n endeavour_n to_o imprint_v a_o affection_n like_o unto_o itself_o in_o other_o body_n yet_o it_o scarce_o advance_v so_o far_o that_o it_o can_v total_o produce_v a_o disease_n of_o the_o same_o kind_n for_o perhaps_o it_o may_v in_o one_o some_o slight_a
