sympathetical_a powder_n when_o you_o will_v use_v this_o powder_n you_o be_v to_o take_v the_o blood_n of_o a_o wound_n upon_o a_o linen_n cloth_n and_o to_o sprinkle_v some_o of_o it_o upon_o the_o blood_n it_o be_v pretend_v that_o though_o the_o bloody_a linen_n be_v ten_o mile_n off_o from_o the_o patient_n when_o the_o sympathetical_a powder_n be_v apply_v to_o it_o the_o wound_n will_v present_o heal_v but_o the_o experience_n of_o several_a person_n who_o have_v try_v it_o and_o other_o may_v do_v the_o same_o do_v evince_n that_o man_n have_v have_v a_o great_a faith_n when_o they_o have_v talk_v of_o the_o effect_n of_o this_o powder_n for_o if_o it_o be_v not_o apply_v to_o a_o cloth_n new_o blood_a and_o even_o in_o the_o chamber_n of_o the_o patient_n you_o will_v certain_o find_v no_o effect_n from_o it_o nay_o where_o such_o precaution_n have_v be_v use_v it_o perform_v no_o great_a matter_n and_o sometime_o do_v nothing_o at_o all_o now_o to_o explicate_v the_o action_n of_o vitriol_n call_v sympathy_n you_o must_v know_v that_o there_o do_v continual_o exhale_v into_o the_o air_n little_a body_n from_o this_o mineral_n salt_n and_o to_o convince_v you_o of_o it_o you_o need_v only_o to_o put_v the_o several_a vitriol_n of_o different_a colour_n pretty_a near_o one_o another_o in_o the_o same_o place_n you_o will_v find_v after_o 12_o or_o 15_o day_n that_o they_o have_v all_o change_a colour_n a_o little_a in_o their_o superficies_n the_o white_a will_v become_v yellow_a the_o green_a whitish_a the_o blue_a greenish_a the_o red_a grayish_a these_o change_n of_o colour_n can_v proceed_v but_o from_o little_a body_n which_o be_v separate_v from_o each_o kind_n of_o vitriol_n and_o mix_v in_o the_o air_n some_o part_n of_o they_o do_v fall_v confuse_o on_o the_o matter_n and_o it_o must_v not_o be_v say_v that_o these_o change_n be_v cause_v by_o the_o air_n which_o do_v open_a and_o rarefie_v these_o salt_n for_o if_o you_o put_v they_o into_o place_n separate_v or_o distant_a from_o one_o another_o this_o effect_n will_v in_o no_o wise_n happen_v you_o must_v also_o observe_v that_o the_o blood_n to_o which_o the_o vitriolic_a powder_n be_v apply_v retain_v some_o heat_n still_o may_v thereby_o increase_v the_o activity_n and_o number_n of_o the_o little_a body_n which_o do_v arise_v from_o the_o vitriol_n and_o these_o vitriolic_a body_n disperse_v themselves_o in_o the_o air_n be_v they_o that_o cause_n all_o the_o sympathy_n for_o they_o do_v mix_v in_o the_o wound_n of_o the_o patient_a and_o because_o the_o virtue_n of_o vitriol_n be_v to_o stop_v the_o blood_n and_o to_o dry_v it_o you_o need_v not_o wonder_v if_o the_o volatile_a part_n which_o come_v from_o it_o do_v perform_v the_o same_o effect_n but_o it_o may_v be_v object_v that_o the_o volatile_a part_n of_o vitriol_n have_v no_o more_o determination_n natural_o to_o go_v find_v out_o the_o wound_n of_o a_o person_n than_o other_o part_n of_o the_o body_n and_o other_o place_n of_o the_o chamber_n nay_o on_o the_o contrary_a that_o a_o wound_n be_v common_o cover_v with_o a_o plaster_n and_o somewhat_o thick_a bandage_n be_v not_o so_o likely_a to_o receive_v those_o body_n i_o answer_v that_o there_o be_v no_o need_n of_o give_v any_o other_o determination_n to_o these_o volatile_a part_n of_o vitriol_n than_o be_v give_v to_o other_o volatile_a salt_n which_o be_v disperse_v in_o the_o air_n but_o because_o wound_n be_v always_o of_o a_o glutinous_a temper_n it_o be_v easy_a to_o conceive_v that_o these_o little_a body_n will_v adhere_v to_o they_o in_o great_a quantity_n than_o to_o other_o as_o any_o downy_a substance_n which_o fly_v about_o a_o room_n wherein_o there_o be_v glue_v or_o turpentine_n will_v more_o easy_o stick_v in_o they_o than_o in_o other_o place_n as_o for_o the_o bandage_n and_o plaster_n use_v to_o wound_n you_o must_v know_v that_o those_o who_o do_v use_v the_o sympathetical_a powder_n do_v apply_v none_o of_o they_o but_o when_o it_o happen_v which_o be_v very_o rare_a that_o a_o man_n wound_n have_v be_v cure_v by_o this_o powder_n although_o there_o be_v a_o plaster_n and_o bandage_n also_o lay_v upon_o it_o this_o effect_n can_v never_o be_v attribute_v to_o any_o thing_n else_o but_o the_o penetration_n of_o vitriol_n for_o there_o be_v wound_n that_o a_o very_a little_a quantity_n of_o vitriol_n be_v capable_a of_o dry_v thus_o i_o have_v give_v you_o the_o most_o rational_a explication_n that_o can_v be_v of_o a_o effect_n which_o have_v hitherto_o pass_v for_o a_o thing_n altogether_o inexplicable_a to_o conclude_v i_o will_v not_o advise_v any_o wound_a person_n to_o insist_v or_o depend_v too_o much_o on_o a_o remedy_n of_o this_o nature_n for_o to_o one_o who_o ever_o receive_v considerable_a good_a there_o be_v a_o hundred_o who_o never_o perceive_v any_o effect_n from_o it_o and_o the_o cause_n of_o it_o have_v be_v that_o the_o volatile_a part_n of_o the_o vitriol_n have_v happen_v to_o be_v divert_v from_o the_o wound_n by_o some_o wind_n or_o else_o because_o the_o great_a part_n of_o people_n have_v their_o blood_n too_o subtle_a and_o too_o active_a to_o be_v fix_v by_o so_o little_a a_o quantity_n of_o vitriol_n nevertheless_o those_o who_o head_n be_v fill_v with_o the_o sympathetical_a powder_n do_v speak_v of_o it_o as_o of_o a_o never_o fail_a medicine_n and_o if_o a_o man_n offer_v to_o convince_v they_o by_o a_o experiment_n to_o the_o contrary_a as_o it_o be_v not_o hard_a to_o do_v they_o present_o cry_v out_o that_o the_o reason_n it_o fail_v be_v because_o it_o be_v ill_o prepare_v but_o it_o be_v easy_a to_o convince_v they_o if_o they_o desire_v a_o serious_a satisfaction_n in_o it_o for_o

exalt_v so_o as_o to_o cause_v any_o fermentation_n or_o digestion_n the_o reason_n then_o why_o a_o small_a portion_n of_o acid_n will_v cause_v digestion_n in_o the_o stomach_n and_o a_o great_a quantity_n will_v hinder_v it_o be_v that_o the_o small_a quantity_n will_v join_v with_o the_o natural_a salt_n of_o the_o aliment_n and_o have_v its_o operation_n without_o shut_v the_o pore_n of_o

enough_o that_o there_o be_v a_o great_a many_o acid_n to_o cause_v such_o a_o dissolution_n these_o acid_n must_v have_v room_n to_o move_v in_o and_o to_o make_v their_o jostle_v thus_o these_o

of_o all_o every_o body_n must_v grant_v that_o when_o there_o be_v obstruction_n in_o our_o body_n the_o obstruct_a matter_n do_v ferment_n and_o sour_a as_o doughty_n wine_n and_o several_a other_o thing_n grow_v sour_a by_o be_v stale_a this_o matter_n by_o ferment_v send_v saline_a or_o acid_a vapour_n into_o the_o mass_n of_o blood_n which_o do_v cause_n divers_a alteration_n in_o it_o according_a to_o their_o quantity_n and_o quality_n for_o these_o acid_n be_v common_o mix_v with_o sulphur_n which_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o vehicle_n to_o the_o acid_n and_o be_v more_o or_o less_o corrupt_v according_a as_o the_o matter_n whence_o they_o be_v derive_v have_v sojourn_v more_o or_o less_o in_o the_o obstruct_a part_n now_o if_o these_o acid_a vapour_n be_v carry_v into_o the_o vessel_n but_o only_o in_o such_o a_o quantity_n as_o be_v fit_a to_o make_v a_o kind_n of_o leaven_n they_o will_v then_o rarify_v the_o blood_n too_o much_o and_o whereas_o they_o by_o consequence_n do_v increase_v its_o motion_n and_o heat_n they_o do_v cause_n that_o which_o we_o call_v a_o fever_n this_o fever_n must_v remain_v as_o long_o as_o the_o ferment_n continue_v in_o the_o blood_n and_o according_a as_o there_o come_v a_o new_a supply_n of_o matter_n in_o place_n of_o that_o which_o nature_n have_v throw_v off_o but_o if_o a_o great_a quantity_n of_o acid_n shall_v rise_v all_o of_o a_o sudden_a from_o out_o of_o the_o obstruction_n than_o there_o must_v needs_o happen_v a_o kind_n of_o coagulation_n for_o these_o acid_v thus_o abound_v and_o fix_v the_o grosser_n part_n of_o the_o blood_n do_v partly_o lose_v their_o motion_n and_o quiet_a the_o ebullition_n of_o the_o blood_n by_o fix_v its_o part_n it_o be_v this_o kind_n of_o congelation_n which_o cause_v those_o

with_o additional_a force_n do_v make_v violent_a assault_n until_o they_o have_v make_v their_o way_n free_a the_o coagulum_fw-la be_v dissolve_v the_o blood_n shall_v seem_v to_o circulate_v as_o

fever_n continue_v until_o the_o blood_n be_v free_v from_o all_o this_o ferment_n either_o by_o transpiration_n or_o by_o urine_n now_o to_o conceive_v how_o this_o coagulum_fw-la may_v be_v convert_v into_o a_o leaven_n we_o must_v consider_v that_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o blood_n have_v lose_v most_o of_o their_o acidity_n in_o dissolve_v this_o coagulum_fw-la and_o that_o there_o remain_v but_o only_a acidity_n enough_o to_o produce_v a_o fermentation_n nevertheless_o you_o must_v not_o think_v i_o mean_v by_o this_o congelation_n now_o speak_v of_o a_o coagulum_fw-la altogether_o like_a to_o that_o in_o milk_n or_o to_o that_o which_o happen_v when_o a_o acid_a liquor_n be_v syringe_v into_o the_o vein_n of_o a_o animal_n for_o these_o congelation_n be_v too_o

because_o the_o course_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o blood_n will_v be_v entire_o stop_v and_o they_o will_v never_o be_v able_a to_o break_v through_o so_o great_a a_o obstacle_n but_o i_o do_v understand_v here_o that_o the_o blood_n be_v make_v thick_a than_o it_o be_v and_o have_v not_o so_o free_a a_o motion_n as_o it_o have_v before_o which_o be_v enough_o to_o cause_v such_o cold_a fit_n now_o it_o remain_v for_o i_o to_o explicate_v how_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o fever_n have_v their_o return_n regular_o by_o fit_n the_o matter_n that_o make_v the_o obstruction_n which_o i_o have_v lay_v down_o for_o the_o fundamental_a cause_n of_o fever_n begin_v not_o to_o send_v forth_o its_o vapour_n nor_o to_o disperse_v its_o acid_a salt_n into_o the_o blood_n in_o order_n to_o cause_v a_o fever_n until_o it_o have_v get_v together_o a_o certain_a quantity_n in_o the_o obstruct_a vessel_n and_o then_o it_o be_v probable_a that_o there_o be_v a_o new_a discharge_n of_o the_o matter_n this_o discharge_n or_o eruption_n of_o feverish_a matter_n must_v happen_v at_o set_a time_n so_o long_o as_o the_o obstruction_n last_v because_o the_o humour_n which_o circulate_v to_o the_o obstruct_a part_n and_o there_o stop_v be_v always_o in_o a_o equal_a quickness_n and_o a_o equal_a quantity_n now_o because_o in_o a_o tertian_n the_o vessel_n wherein_o the_o obstruction_n happen_v do_v acquire_v in_o two_o day_n a_o sufficient_a repletion_n of_o matter_n to_o produce_v the_o eruption_n and_o fermentation_n i_o have_v speak_v of_o the_o fit_n do_v come_v to_o operate_v every_o second_o day_n but_o because_o in_o a_o quartan_a the_o humour_n be_v more_o tenacious_a and_o heavy_a and_o flow_v with_o less_o expedition_n the_o fermentation_n and_o eruption_n must_v

of_o the_o water_n the_o reason_n that_o may_v be_v give_v for_o the_o pierce_a quality_n of_o sal_fw-la gem_n be_v this_o that_o have_v never_o be_v dissolve_v in_o water_n it_o never_o lose_v any_o of_o its_o keenness_n whereas_o the_o other_o do_v lose_v their_o more_o subtle_a edge_n in_o the_o water_n and_o this_o chief_o when_o those_o water_n be_v in_o strong_a agitation_n as_o be_v those_o of_o the_o sea_n it_o be_v very_o probable_a that_o the_o violent_a vomit_v which_o do_v so_o much_o annoy_v those_o who_o take_v a_o voyage_n to_o sea_n do_v proceed_v from_o these_o same_o subtle_a

likewise_o precipitate_v what_o a_o alkali_a have_v dissolve_v as_o we_o see_v in_o the_o operation_n of_o the_o magistery_n of_o sulphur_n and_o this_o because_o the_o acid_n have_v dissolve_v and_o

of_o the_o same_o nature_n do_v proceed_v from_o this_o that_o the_o natural_a salt_n have_v be_v put_v into_o motion_n by_o trituration_n or_o some_o other_o cause_n do_v rarify_v and_o dissolve_v

and_o dissolve_v the_o whole_a the_o same_o may_v be_v likewise_o say_v of_o other_o acid_a matter_n which_o cause_n a_o fermentation_n but_o when_o the_o acid_n have_v rarify_v the_o matter_n as_o

myself_o with_o those_o already_o say_v and_o now_o let_v we_o see_v whether_o this_o discourse_n can_v furnish_v we_o with_o any_o thing_n that_o illustrate_v the_o digestion_n of_o aliment_n in_o the_o stomach_n most_o of_o our_o modern_a philosopher_n have_v not_o spare_v the_o notion_n of_o acid_n when_o they_o have_v endeavour_v to_o explicate_v digestion_n they_o have_v conceive_v the_o

enough_o to_o comprehend_v i_o know_v very_o well_o that_o some_o of_o they_o to_o avoid_v this_o difficulty_n will_v say_v that_o the_o acid_n be_v generate_v in_o the_o stomach_n from_o the_o

this_o difficulty_n which_o seem_v to_o be_v very_o considerable_a we_o must_v observe_v that_o the_o natural_a acid_n of_o aliment_n take_v into_o the_o stomach_n be_v sufficient_a to_o rarify_v
