which_o it_o may_v remain_v long_o in_o the_o gut_n to_o corrode_v and_o gnaw_v they_o as_o well_o as_o a_o sharpness_n and_o therefore_o if_o yellow_a choler_n be_v such_o it_o cause_v a_o

and_o contrariwise_o often_o time_n there_o be_v no_o clamminess_n in_o choleric_a humour_n which_o cause_n a_o dysentery_n and_o therefore_o he_o think_v that_o the_o humour_n which_o produce_v a_o dysentery_n have_v a_o peculiar_a occult_a quality_n with_o which_o the_o intestine_n be_v offend_v and_o ulcerate_v as_o the_o lung_n be_v with_o the_o fish_n lepus_fw-la and_o the_o bladder_n with_o cantharides_n and_o no_o other_o part_n and_o he_o prove_v that_o malignant_a quality_n in_o that_o a_o dysentery_n be_v contagious_a for_o the_o most_o part_n so_o that_o the_o infection_n which_o come_v from_o the_o vapour_n rise_v from_o the_o excrement_n of_o those_o that_o have_v a_o dysentery_n do_v only_o infect_v the_o gut_n of_o they_o that_o be_v infect_v and_o not_o upon_o other_o
