A77179	A disquisition about the final causes of natural things wherein it is inquir'd, whether, and (if at all) with what cautions, a naturalist should admit them? By T.H. R.B. Fellow of the Royal Society. To which are subjoyn'd, by way of appendix some uncommon observations about vitiated sight. By the same author.	Boyle, Robert, 1627-1691.	1688 (1688)	Wing B3945A; ESTC R231094	85,440	301

ought_v not_o to_o appear_v incredible_a that_o he_o that_o give_v man_n both_o the_o limb_n of_o his_o body_n and_o the_o rational_a endowment_n of_o his_o mind_n and_o that_o have_v make_v many_o part_n as_o the_o eye_n and_o the_o ear_n double_a that_o one_o may_v supply_v the_o want_n of_o the_o other_o do_v both_o foresee_v what_o use_v man_n may_v according_a to_o their_o sagacitys_n and_o emergency_n make_v of_o these_o part_n and_o so_o contrive_v the_o part_n that_o they_o shall_v be_v applicable_a to_o such_o use_v suppose_v a_o wise_a man_n shall_v send_v his_o son_n to_o travel_v and_o among_o other_o thing_n give_v he_o a_o pocket-dyal_n with_o a_o magnetic_a needle_n and_o this_o traveller_n have_v lose_v his_o way_n in_o some_o wild_a plain_n or_o be_v at_o sea_n in_o a_o

to_o find_v the_o hour_n of_o the_o day_n he_o shall_v now_o employ_v it_o to_o guide_n his_o course_n or_o steer_v the_o vessel_n by_o the_o help_n of_o the_o needle_n point_v northward_o though_o this_o will_v be_v a_o effect_n of_o his_o own_o sagacity_n yet_o his_o father_n be_v a_o wise_a and_o experience_a man_n may_v reasonable_a bly_z enough_o be_v suppose_v to_o have_v foresee_v that_o his_o son_n may_v have_v need_n of_o know_v the_o northern_a and_o southern_a point_n of_o the_o horizon_n and_o according_o may_v have_v give_v he_o a_o dial_n furnish_v with_o a_o magnetic_a

urgent_a circumstance_n make_v it_o requisite_a for_o he_o to_o do_v so_o have_v insist_v long_a than_o i_o intend_v upon_o the_o former_a part_n of_o my_o proposition_n i_o now_o proceed_v to_o the_o latter_a namely_o that_o in_o some_o case_n we_o may_v from_o the_o know_a end_n of_o nature_n as_o well_o as_o from_o the_o structure_n of_o the_o part_n ground_n probable_a conjecture_n both_o affirmative_a and_o negative_a about_o the_o particular_a office_n of_o the_o part_n which_o i_o can_v not_o seasonable_o do_v before_o because_o the_o argument_n that_o be_v found_v on_o the_o use_v of_o the_o part_n of_o animal_n suppose_v not_o only_o that_o those_o part_n be_v destinate_a to_o particular_a use_v knowable_a by_o we_o but_o that_o the_o several_a part_n of_o the_o body_n be_v contrive_v as_o wise_o and_o commodious_o as_o man_n be_v able_a to_o devise_n in_o order_n to_o the_o end_n of_o nature_n which_o be_v always_o to_o be_v understand_v to_o have_v unite_a in_o her_o design_n the_o use_v of_o the_o part_n and_o the_o welfare_n of_o the_o whole_a and_o indeed_o if_o we_o consider_v how_o admirable_a a_o fitness_n there_o be_v in_o the_o part_n of_o the_o human_a body_n for_o instance_n to_o those_o particular_a end_n we_o can_v discover_v they_o to_o have_v be_v predesign_v for_o it_o seem_v allowable_a to_o conjecture_n that_o such_o a_o part_n be_v not_o primary_o design_v to_o such_o a_o use_n because_o it_o be_v on_o the_o account_n of_o its_o structure_n or_o otherwise_o less_o fit_v for_o it_o than_o the_o constant_a wisdom_n of_o nature_n seem_v to_o require_v especial_o if_o there_o be_v any_o other_o part_n by_o which_o that_o office_n may_v be_v more_o commodious_o perform_v and_o on_o the_o other_o side_n it_o may_v be_v a_o probable_a ground_n though_o not_o altogether_o so_o probable_a as_o the_o former_a to_o conclude_v that_o such_o a_o part_n be_v destinate_a to_o such_o a_o use_n if_o the_o use_v itself_o appear_v to_o be_v necessary_a and_o the_o part_n better_o fit_v for_o it_o than_o any_o other_o be_v thus_o though_o anatomical_a and_o optical_a writer_n as_o well_o as_o the_o school_n do_v for_o many_o age_n unanimous_o conclude_v the_o crystalline_a humour_n to_o be_v the_o principal_a seat_n of_o vision_n yet_o the_o industrious_a scheiner_n in_o his_o useful_a tract_n entitle_v oculus_fw-la do_v just_o enough_o reject_v that_o receive_a opinion_n by_o show_v that_o it_o suit_v not_o with_o the_o skill_n and_o providence_n of_o nature_n to_o make_v that_o part_n the_o seat_n or_o chief_a organ_n of_o vision_n for_o which_o it_o want_v divers_a requisite_a qualification_n especial_o most_o of_o these_o be_v to_o be_v find_v in_o the_o retina_fw-la and_o i_o remember_v that_o when_o i_o ask_v our_o famous_a harvey_n in_o the_o only_a discourse_n i_o have_v with_o he_o which_o be_v but_o a_o while_n be_v fore_o he_o die_v what_o be_v the_o thing_n that_o induce_v he_o to_o think_v of_o a_o circulation_n of_o the_o blood_n he_o answer_v i_o that_o when_o he_o take_v notice_n that_o the_o valve_n in_o the_o vein_n of_o so_o many_o several_a part_n of_o the_o body_n be_v so_o place_v that_o they_o give_v free_a passage_n to_o the_o blood_n towards_o the_o heart_n but_o oppose_v the_o passage_n of_o the_o venal_a blood_n the_o contrary_a way_n he_o be_v invite_v to_o imagine_v that_o so_o provident_a a_o cause_n as_o nature_n have_v not_o so_o place_v so_o many_o valve_n without_o design_n and_o no_o design_n seem_v more_o probable_a than_o that_o since_o the_o blood_n can_v not_o well_o because_o of_o the_o interpose_v valve_n be_v send_v by_o the_o vein_n to_o the_o limb_n it_o shall_v be_v send_v through_o the_o artery_n and_o return_v through_o the_o vein_n who_o valve_n do_v not_o oppose_v its_o course_n that_o way_n thus_o whereas_o former_a anatomist_n and_o physician_n general_o believe_v the_o nutrition_n of_o the_o part_n by_o the_o venal_a blood_n the_o more_o recent_a writer_n be_v wont_a to_o teach_v that_o the_o part_n be_v nourish_v by_o the_o blood_n in_o its_o passage_n through_o the_o artery_n not_o that_o they_o think_v the_o blood_n that_o run_v through_o the_o vein_n altogether_o unfit_a to_o irrigate_n the_o part_n with_o that_o vital_a liquor_n but_o that_o they_o judge_v the_o vein_n to_o be_v less_o fit_a than_o the_o artery_n into_o which_o the_o blood_n come_v immediate_o from_o the_o left_a ventricle_n of_o the_o heart_n agitate_a and_o spirituous_a and_o with_o a_o brisk_a impulse_n which_o force_v out_o the_o particle_n of_o the_o blood_n at_o those_o pore_n of_o the_o artery_n that_o they_o find_v congruous_a to_o their_o shape_n and_o size_n and_o which_o answer_n to_o the_o several_a part_n that_o be_v to_o be_v nourish_v by_o corpuscle_n so_o qualify_v it_o be_v not_o difficult_a if_o it_o be_v necessary_a to_o accumulate_v instance_n to_o the_o same_o purpose_n with_o those_o already_o mention_v there_o be_v nothing_o more_o frequent_a in_o the_o book_n of_o anatomist_n and_o those_o that_o treat_v of_o the_o physiological_a and_o pathological_a part_n of_o physic_n than_o to_o draw_v argument_n as_o well_o affirmative_a as_o negative_a about_o the_o use_n of_o the_o part_n of_o the_o body_n from_o their_o fitness_n or_o unfitness_n or_o their_o great_a or_o lesser_a fitness_n to_o attain_v such_o end_n as_o be_v suppose_v to_o have_v be_v design_v by_o nature_n and_o indeed_o these_o argumentation_n occur_v so_o frequent_o that_o i_o think_v there_o be_v less_o need_n of_o my_o
