to_o be_v no_o body_n because_o every_o body_n have_v matter_n in_o it_o if_o they_o allege_v that_o body_n have_v the_o three_o dimension_n in_o they_o and_o that_o the_o soul_n extend_v itself_o through_o the_o whole_a body_n have_v in_o it_o also_o the_o three_o dimension_n and_o therefore_o must_v necessary_o be_v a_o body_n we_o will_v then_o thus_o answer_v they_o it_o be_v true_a that_o all_o body_n be_v have_v in_o they_o the_o three_o dimension_n but_o every_o thing_n have_v the_o three_o dimension_n be_v not_o a_o body_n for_o place_n and_o quality_n which_o in_o themselves_o

of_o the_o dimension_n but_o accidental_o it_o have_v dimension_n because_o the_o body_n in_o which_o it_o be_v have_v in_o it_o the_o three_o dimension_n we_o so_o conceive_v it_o together_o with_o the_o body_n as_o though_o the_o soul_n also_o have_v in_o it_o the_o three_o dimension_n we_o argue_v further_o and_o say_v thus_o every_o body_n have_v his_o motion_n either_o from_o without_o

for_o knowledge_n be_v the_o nourishment_n thereof_o but_o no_o corporeal_a essence_n be_v nourish_v by_o thing_n bodiless_a therefore_o the_o soul_n can_v be_v a_o body_n xenocrates_n thus_o

thus_o much_o in_o general_a in_o confutation_n of_o all_o those_o who_o general_o affirm_v that_o the_o soul_n be_v a_o bodily_a thing_n now_o we_o will_v treat_v particular_o against_o they_o who_o

the_o death_n of_o the_o live_a creature_n ensue_v then_o shall_v it_o needs_o be_v that_o phlegm_n and_o the_o two_o choler_n be_v must_v be_v also_o the_o soul_n see_v if_o any_o one_o of_o these_o

and_o yet_o be_v void_a of_o blood_n than_o it_o plain_o follow_v that_o blood_n can_v be_v the_o soul_n against_o those_o who_o say_v that_o water_n be_v the_o soul_n many_o thing_n may_v be_v say_v

furthermore_o aristotle_n say_v that_o the_o soul_n be_v a_o continued-motion_n unmoveable_a of_o itself_o be_v move_v accidental_o and_o that_o it_o be_v not_o unlikely_a we_o shall_v be_v move_v
