x._o both_o aristotelian_o and_o galenist_n affirm_v that_o the_o child_n at_o first_o live_v the_o life_n of_o a_o plant_n but_o from_o hence_o the_o aristotelian_a conclude_v that_o the_o heart_n be_v the_o first_o member_n beget_v in_o we_o because_o it_o be_v answerable_a to_o the_o root_n in_o plant_n which_o be_v first_o generate_v but_o the_o galenist_n infer_v that_o the_o liver_n must_v be_v the_o first_o member_n because_o the_o child_n live_v the_o life_n of_o a_o plant_n have_v no_o other_o faculty_n but_o nutritive_a which_o be_v the_o faculty_n of_o the_o plant_n the_o seat_n whereof_o be_v in_o the_o liver_n but_o here_o i_o side_n with_o aristotle_n because_o the_o liver_n be_v no_o more_o the_o seat_n of_o nutriment_n than_o the_o heart_n and_o because_o the_o heart_n be_v as_o the_o root_n but_o it_o be_v by_o the_o root_n the_o plant_n live_v and_o be_v nourish_v and_o if_o the_o liver_n be_v the_o seat_n of_o nutriment_n because_o of_o the_o blood_n thereof_o i_o shall_v rather_o say_v the_o heart_n be_v this_o seat_n because_o we_o find_v blood_n there_o out_o of_o the_o vein_n as_o in_o a_o cistern_n but_o in_o the_o liver_n there_o be_v no_o other_o blood_n than_o what_o be_v in_o the_o vein_n neither_o can_v the_o liver_n be_v the_o original_n of_o the_o nutritive_a power_n because_o there_o be_v the_o sense_n of_o indigence_n or_o want_n for_o so_o the_o stomach_n shall_v rather_o be_v this_o original_n because_o there_o be_v the_o most_o exquisite_a sense_n of_o want_n xi_o the_o liver_n can_v be_v generate_v without_o heat_n and_o spirit_n but_o the_o seat_n of_o heat_n and_o spirit_n be_v the_o heart_n therefore_o this_o must_v be_v first_o if_o any_o will_v say_v that_o the_o heat_n of_o the_o matrix_fw-la be_v sufficient_a i_o deny_v it_o for_o that_o heat_n be_v only_a conservative_n not_o generative_a it_o harden_v and_o consolidate_v the_o outward_a part_n but_o do_v not_o produce_v the_o inward_a xii_o aristotle_n will_v have_v the_o right_a ventricle_n of_o the_o heart_n the_o noble_a galen_n the_o left_a but_o i_o subscribe_v to_o aristotle_n because_o i_o find_v that_o the_o right_a ventricle_n live_v long_a than_o the_o left_a 2._o that_o the_o pulse_n in_o the_o right_a side_n of_o he_o that_o be_v die_v be_v more_o valid_a then_o in_o the_o left_a side_n 3._o the_o right_a ventricle_n lean_v upon_o the_o lung_n as_o upon_o a_o cushion_n or_o supporter_n nature_n show_v as_o it_o be_v a_o great_a care_n of_o this_o then_o of_o the_o other_o 4._o the_o right_a part_n be_v nimble_a and_o strong_a than_o the_o left_a because_o they_o be_v hot_a 5._o though_o the_o spirit_n receive_v their_o completion_n in_o the_o left_a ventricle_n yet_o they_o be_v prepare_v and_o fit_v in_o the_o right_a and_o therefore_o there_o need_v not_o so_o great_a a_o heat_n in_o the_o left_a ventricle_n as_o the_o galenist_n speak_v of_o for_o a_o moderate_a heat_n will_v suffice_v to_o perfect_v that_o which_o be_v already_o begin_v 6._o the_o left_a ventricle_n be_v but_o a_o servant_n to_o the_o right_n in_o finish_v that_o work_n which_o be_v begin_v by_o the_o right_n and_o distribute_v it_o into_o the_o body_n be_v finish_v xiii_o the_o aristotelian_o make_v the_o vital_a and_o nutritive_a faculty_n the_o same_o the_o galenist_n make_v they_o distinct_a but_o the_o peripatetic_n reason_n prevail_v with_o i_o which_o be_v this_o that_o where_o there_o be_v distinct_a faculty_n there_o must_v be_v distinct_a operation_n because_o the_o faculty_n be_v for_o the_o operation_n but_o there_o be_v no_o distinct_a operation_n of_o the_o vital_a faculty_n from_o that_o of_o the_o nutritve_n for_o accretion_n diminution_n and_o generation_n be_v action_n of_o the_o vital_a or_o nutritive_a sense_n and_o motion_n be_v action_n of_o the_o animal_n faculty_n 2._o life_n be_v the_o presence_n of_o the_o soul_n in_o the_o body_n this_o presence_n consist_v in_o action_n this_o action_n be_v nutrition_n for_o when_o this_o action_n fail_v life_n fail_v because_o the_o chief_a and_o first_o action_n of_o the_o live_a creature_n be_v to_o preserve_v itself_o which_o can_v be_v without_o nutrition_n see_v nutrition_n be_v not_o without_o tact_n in_o the_o sensitive_a creature_n but_o when_o tact_n fail_v animality_n must_v needs_o fail_v fourteen_o the_o aristotelian_o make_v heat_n the_o efficient_a cause_n of_o the_o heart_n public_a motion_n other_o will_v have_v the_o soul_n other_o the_o vegetive_a faculty_n but_o aristotle_n be_v in_o the_o right_a for_o the_o soul_n work_v by_o its_o faculty_n and_o these_o by_o heat_n so_o that_o heat_n be_v the_o immediate_a cause_n of_o this_o motion_n and_o the_o soul_n instrument_n yet_o not_o such_o a_o instrument_n

soul_n the_o heat_n then_o of_o the_o heart_n rarify_n the_o blood_n into_o vapour_n which_o require_v more_o room_n dilate_v the_o heart_n but_o by_o expel_v some_o of_o these_o vapour_n into_o the_o
