both_o that_o which_o experience_n deny_v proper_o to_o any_o of_o they_o and_o he_o himself_o as_o i_o note_v before_o to_o one_o second_o the_o cause_n why_o by_o swift_a progressive_a motion_n

nay_o i_o have_v a_o great_a esteem_n of_o our_o author_n knowledge_n than_o to_o think_v he_o ignorant_a of_o this_o common_a and_o perpetual_a truth_n but_o the_o matter_n be_v his_o false_a and_o

to_o consist_v the_o difference_n betwixt_o continual_a and_o intermittent_a fever_n that_o in_o the_o former_a the_o morbific_n matter_n be_v translate_v all_o at_o once_o and_o so_o produce_v one_o

from_o the_o first_o way_n to_o the_o blood_n that_o be_v a_o thing_n already_o do_v else_o there_o can_v be_v no_o fever_n and_o real_o all_o along_o it_o appear_v that_o it_o be_v not_o a_o fever_n
