persuade_v when_o he_o shall_v get_v through_o that_o he_o shall_v find_v what_o he_o seek_v so_o he_o set_v about_o to_o dissect_v it_o which_o be_v hard_o to_o he_o for_o scarcety_n of_o

great_a art_n in_o bore_v through_o that_o cover_n until_o at_o last_o he_o break_v through_o it_o and_o come_v unto_o the_o lung_n which_o at_o the_o first_o sight_n he_o think_v be_v that_o member_n which_o he_o seek_v and_o he_o cease_v not_o to_o turn_v they_o over_o that_o he_o may_v find_v in_o they_o the_o seat_n of_o the_o disease_n but_o first_o he_o fall_v upon_o that_o half_a of_o the_o lung_n which_o be_v on_o the_o one_o side_n and_o he_o perceive_v it_o lean_v to_o one_o side_n but_o he_o have_v conclude_v former_o with_o himself_o that_o that_o member_n can_v not_o be_v but_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o body_n in_o respect_n of_o latitude_n as_o well_o as_o longitude_n he_o do_v not_o omit_v therefore_o to_o inquire_v further_o into_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o breast_n until_o he_o find_v the_o heart_n which_o be_v cover_v with_o a_o very_a strong_a cover_n and_o fasten_v with_o most_o strong_a ligament_n the_o lung_n also_o compass_v it_o on_o that_o part_n where_o he_o begin_v to_o make_v a_o entrance_n to_o it_o he_o say_v within_o himself_o if_o it_o be_v so_o with_o this_o member_n on_o the_o other_o side_n as_o it_o be_v on_o this_o it_o be_v certain_o in_o the_o midst_n and_o so_o without_o doubt_n be_v that_o i_o be_v seek_v especial_o with_o what_o i_o see_v of_o the_o fitness_n of_o the_o place_n it_o have_v such_o excellency_n of_o figure_n firmness_n and_o solidity_n of_o flesh_n and_o be_v cover_v with_o such_o a_o cover_n as_o i_o find_v in_o no_o other_o member_n so_o he_o search_v into_o the_o other_o part_n of_o the_o breast_n where_o when_o he_o have_v find_v the_o cover_n within_o the_o rib_n and_o that_o the_o lung_n be_v after_o the_o same_o manner_n there_o as_o in_o the_o other_o part_n he_o conclude_v that_o that_o be_v the_o member_n which_o he_o seek_v so_o he_o set_v to_o work_v to_o remove_v its_o cover_n and_o diffect_v the_o pericadium_fw-la which_o at_o length_n have_v use_v his_o utmost_a endeavour_n with_o some_o trouble_n and_o difficulty_n he_o get_v do_v and_o have_v uncover_v the_o heart_n when_o he_o see_v it_o be_v in_o every_o part_n solid_a he_o view_v if_o he_o can_v find_v any_o observable_a fault_n in_o it_o but_o when_o he_o can_v find_v none_o he_o press_v it_o with_o his_o hand_n and_o so_o there_o appear_v to_o he_o there_o be_v some_o hollowness_n in_o it_o he_o say_v therefore_o perhaps_o within_o this_o member_n be_v the_o last_o which_o i_o seek_v and_o i_o have_v not_o as_o yet_o come_v unto_o it_o so_o when_o he_o have_v open_v it_o he_o find_v two_o hollow_a place_n in_o it_o one_o on_o the_o left_a part_n another_o on_o the_o right_n that_o on_o the_o right_a side_n be_v full_a of_o a_o congeal_a blood_n but_o that_o on_o the_o left_a be_v empty_a and_o contain_v nothing_o in_o it_o he_o say_v therefore_o it_o can_v be_v but_o the_o seat_n of_o that_o thing_n i_o be_o a_o seek_n be_v in_o one_o of_o these_o two_o receptacle_n then_o he_o say_v as_o concern_v that_o on_o the_o right_a side_n i_o see_v nothing_o in_o it_o but_o that_o congeal_a blood_n but_o without_o doubt_n that_o blood_n have_v not_o congeal_v until_o the_o whole_a body_n have_v come_v unto_o the_o state_n wherein_o it_o now_o be_v for_o he_o see_v the_o whole_a blood_n when_o it_o flow_v forth_o from_o the_o body_n and_o pass_v out_o that_o it_o congeal_a and_o grow_v altogether_o and_o that_o this_o blood_n be_v not_o unlike_a to_o other_o blood_n but_o i_o see_v that_o this_o blood_n also_o be_v find_v in_o the_o other_o member_n and_o can_v be_v appropriate_a to_o one_o member_n rather_o than_o another_o but_o what_o i_o seek_v be_v not_o of_o this_o sort_n for_o that_o be_v somewhat_o to_o which_o this_o place_n be_v peculiar_a without_o which_o i_o feel_v that_o i_o can_v subsist_v for_o one_o moment_n and_o this_o i_o seek_v from_o the_o beginning_n but_o as_o to_o this_o blood_n as_o oft_o as_o any_o of_o the_o beast_n assault_v i_o and_o wound_v i_o it_o flow_v from_o i_o in_o great_a abundance_n nor_o do_v it_o hurt_v i_o any_o thing_n nor_o do_v it_o hinder_v i_o to_o perform_v any_o of_o my_o action_n therefore_o what_o i_o seek_v be_v not_o in_o this_o receptacle_n but_o as_o concern_v this_o receptacle_n place_v on_o the_o left_a side_n i_o see_v indeed_o that_o it_o be_v altogether_o empty_a but_o i_o can_v think_v that_o it_o be_v make_v in_o vain_a for_o i_o see_v that_o every_o member_n be_v appoint_v for_o some_o office_n proper_a thereunto_o therefore_o how_o can_v this_o receptacle_n that_o i_o see_v be_v of_o so_o excellent_a a_o fabric_n serve_v for_o no_o use_n i_o can_v imagine_v but_o that_o the_o thing_n i_o seek_v be_v place_v therein_o but_o that_o it_o have_v depart_v from_o it_o and_o leave_v its_o place_n empty_a and_o by_o this_o mean_n that_o cessation_n have_v happen_v unto_o this_o body_n so_o that_o it_o be_v destitute_a of_o sense_n and_o deprive_v of_o motion_n but_o when_o he_o

think_v it_o most_o probable_a that_o now_o it_o will_v not_o return_v to_o the_o body_n after_o it_o be_v so_o tear_v and_o rend_v in_o the_o mean_a time_n the_o whole_a body_n seem_v contemptible_a unto_o he_o and_o of_o no_o worth_n in_o respect_n of_o that_o thing_n which_o as_o he_o be_v persuade_v do_v once_o inhabit_v that_o body_n and_o have_v afterward_o relinquish_v the_o same_o therefore_o he_o apply_v himself_o whole_o to_o think_v of_o that_o thing_n what_o it_o be_v and_o after_o what_o manner_n it_o be_v and_o what_o have_v join_v it_o to_o the_o body_n whither_o it_o

after_o privation_n necessary_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o the_o world_n by_o its_o own_o power_n can_v not_o come_v forth_o into_o existence_n but_o of_o necessity_n require_v a_o effector_n to_o

from_o body_n and_o which_o can_v be_v describe_v by_o no_o bodily_a adjunct_n but_o it_o be_v manifest_a to_o he_o from_o his_o former_a contemplation_n of_o the_o generable_a and_o corruptible_a world_n that_o the_o true_a reason_n of_o the_o existence_n of_o every_o body_n be_v in_o respect_n of_o its_o form_n which_o be_v its_o disposition_n to_o various_a motion_n but_o that_o its_o existence_n which_o it_o have_v in_o respect_n of_o the_o matter_n be_v very_o small_a and_o which_o can_v hardly_o be_v conceive_v and_o therefore_o the_o existence_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n be_v in_o respect_n of_o its_o disposition_n to_o the_o motion_n of_o this_o mover_n which_o be_v free_a from_o all_o matter_n and_o all_o bodily_a adjunct_n abstract_v from_o every_o thing_n which_o the_o

of_o they_o and_o in_o this_o manner_n his_o speculation_n reach_v unto_o the_o same_o butt_n which_o it_o reach_v unto_o in_o the_o first_o manner_n not_o in_o this_o respect_n be_v it_o hurtful_a unto_o he_o that_o he_o doubt_v whether_o the_o world_n be_v ancient_o or_o new_o when_o on_o both_o part_n the_o existence_n of_o a_o incorporeal_a effector_n be_v manifest_a to_o he_o and_o which_o be_v join_v to_o no_o body_n nor_o separate_v from_o any_o and_o which_o be_v neither_o within_o any_o body_n nor_o without_o it_o for_o conjunction_n and_o separation_n to_o be_v within_o or_o without_o be_v all_o the_o adjunct_n of_o body_n whereof_o he_o be_v free_a and_o see_v the_o matter_n of_o every_o body_n need_v some_o form_n whereas_o it_o can_v subsist_v but_o there_o by_o nor_o

this_o agent_n for_o their_o existence_n and_o that_o none_o of_o they_o have_v existence_n but_o by_o his_o help_n and_o therefore_o that_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o they_o and_o they_o be_v the_o effect_n or_o work_n thereof_o whether_o they_o be_v new_a by_o a_o privation_n go_v before_o their_o existence_n or_o whether_o they_o have_v no_o beginning_n in_o respect_n of_o time_n nor_o that_o any_o privation_n go_v before_o they_o for_o in_o both_o state_n they_o be_v the_o effect_n and_o need_v a_o efficient_a from_o which_o they_o depend_v as_o to_o their_o essence_n so_o that_o

whatever_o adher_v unto_o they_o or_o any_o way_n depend_v from_o they_o be_v finite_a and_o terminate_v and_o therefore_o the_o whole_a world_n and_o whatever_o be_v in_o it_o whether_o it_o be_v the_o heaven_n or_o the_o earth_n or_o the_o star_n and_o whatever_o be_v among_o they_o either_o above_o or_o below_o be_v his_o work_n and_o creation_n and_o be_v posterior_n thereunto_o in_o

these_o print_n of_o wisdom_n and_o marvellous_a of_o workmanship_n be_v conspicuous_a to_o he_o by_o which_o he_o be_v affect_v with_o great_a admiration_n and_o he_o be_v sure_a that_o all_o these_o
