the_o force_n of_o the_o most_o weighty_a burden_n we_o can_v bear_v and_o that_o if_o we_o can_v carry_v the_o heavy_a the_o defect_n of_o the_o power_n proceed_v not_o so_o much_o from_o the_o

which_o contribute_v to_o these_o motion_n than_o what_o we_o have_v attribute_v to_o it_o for_o there_o be_v probable_o in_o our_o muscle_n a_o thousand_o spring_n which_o facilitate_v these_o

very_a considerable_a cavity_n in_o it_o i_o therefore_o judge_v that_o its_o motion_n may_v be_v perform_v by_o the_o animal_n spirit_n because_o it_o be_v a_o muscle_n and_o that_o the_o blood_n there_o ferment_n and_o dilate_v its_o self_n since_o there_o be_v cavity_n there_o the_o first_o of_o these_o determination_n be_v found_v upon_o what_o i_o have_v already_o say_v and_o the_o second_o because_o the_o heart_n be_v much_o hot_a than_o all_o the_o other_o part_n of_o the_o body_n as_o it_o be_v that_o which_o disperse_v heat_n with_o the_o blood_n into_o all_o our_o member_n that_o these_o two_o cavity_n can_v neither_o have_v be_v form_v nor_o preferve_v but_o only_o by_o the_o dilatation_n of_o the_o blood_n and_o that_o thus_o they_o be_v serviceable_a to_o the_o

dilate_v it_o when_o this_o blood_n be_v ferment_v for_o although_o the_o cause_n i_o bring_v for_o its_o motion_n shall_v not_o perhaps_o be_v true_a yet_o it_o appear_v certain_a to_o i_o that_o

thing_n consider_v it_o be_v not_o difficult_a in_o general_a to_o explain_v how_o the_o convulsive_a motion_n may_v be_v produce_v after_o what_o we_o have_v already_o say_v of_o natural_a and_o

will_v be_v swell_v up_o and_o shall_v in_o this_o part_n produce_v a_o convulsive_a motion_n if_o we_o can_v easy_o resist_v this_o motion_n it_o will_v be_v a_o sign_n that_o the_o nerve_n be_v

if_o we_o can_v we_o must_v conclude_v that_o the_o sharp_a and_o penetrate_a humour_n have_v at_o least_o some_o share_n in_o this_o motion_n it_o may_v even_o sometime_o happen_v that_o these_o
