strainer_n not_o from_o any_o fermentation_n nay_o it_o be_v a_o very_a easy_a thing_n for_o a_o man_n to_o perceive_v that_o there_o be_v no_o such_o thing_n as_o a_o fermentation_n in_o the_o blood_n by_o the_o follow_a easy_a experiment_n viz._n let_v a_o few_o ounce_n of_o blood_n run_v out_o of_o the_o vein_n or_o artery_n of_o man_n or_o other_o animal_n into_o a_o very_a clear_a glass_n vessel_n which_o vessel_n you_o may_v put_v into_o a_o sand_n furness_n wherein_o the_o heat_n may_v be_v such_o as_o to_o keep_v the_o blood_n in_o the_o same_o degree_n of_o warmth_n as_o it_o come_v out_o of_o the_o vessel_n and_o if_o there_o be_v any_o commotion_n to_o be_v see_v with_o the_o best_a light_n and_o best_a eye_n like_v unto_o what_o may_v be_v see_v in_o such_o liquor_n which_o be_v in_o a_o state_n of_o fermentation_n upon_o information_n i_o shall_v glad_o own_v myself_o mistake_v there_o be_v i_o confess_v a_o froth_n to_o be_v see_v upon_o the_o surface_n of_o some_o blood_n after_o it_o be_v let_v out_o into_o the_o porringer_n which_o look_v like_o the_o surface_n of_o liquor_n which_o be_v ferment_v but_o this_o froth_n be_v so_o far_o from_o be_v the_o effect_n of_o fermentation_n that_o it_o proceed_v from_o nothing_o else_o but_o the_o different_a stream_n that_o the_o blood_n run_v in_o for_o in_o the_o same_o person_n let_v one_o parcel_n run_v out_o in_o a_o rapid_a stream_n and_o it_o will_v occasion_v froth_n or_o bubble_n let_v another_o parcel_v run_v out_o gentle_o and_o it_o will_v produce_v no_o such_o thing_n will_v not_o simple_a water_n or_o any_o other_o liquor_n do_v the_o same_o but_o blood_n be_v a_o liquor_n of_o great_a consistence_n the_o bubble_n when_o raise_v will_v not_o so_o soon_o disappear_v as_o in_o water_n or_o other_o liquor_n that_o be_v more_o fluid_a from_o which_o i_o hope_v it_o be_v plain_a that_o the_o constant_a natural_a heat_n of_o the_o blood_n do_v not_o proceed_v from_o fermentation_n and_o if_o the_o progressive_a motion_n from_o the_o heart_n to_o the_o extremity_n give_v it_o its_o heat_n by_o the_o same_o reason_n i_o think_v the_o water_n that_o run_v from_o our_o cock_n shall_v be_v warm_a also_o whereas_o i_o dare_v be_v bold_a to_o say_v that_o instead_o of_o gain_v any_o heat_n by_o its_o rapid_a propulsion_n through_o the_o pipe_n it_o be_v much_o cold_a than_o the_o water_n in_o the_o river_n at_o the_o place_n from_o whence_o it_o be_v receive_v into_o the_o engine_n i_o have_v like_a to_o have_v forget_v to_o take_v notice_n of_o what_o you_o have_v say_v concern_v the_o production_n of_o alkaly_n but_o it_o be_v a_o very_a material_a thing_n i_o shall_v here_o expatiate_v a_o little_a upon_o what_o i_o have_v before_o say_v upon_o that_o subject_a and_o shall_v take_v care_n as_o much_o as_o may_v be_v to_o avoid_v repetition_n i_o have_v already_o own_a that_o alkaly_n do_v actual_o exist_v in_o several_a body_n as_o the_o principle_n of_o their_o death_n and_o destruction_n but_o i_o never_o can_v yet_o see_v or_o hear_v of_o any_o one_o that_o have_v see_v any_o such_o thing_n as_o either_o a_o volatile_a or_o fix_a alkalizat_n salt_n that_o be_v any_o other_o way_n to_o be_v obtain_v out_o of_o vegetable_a or_o mineral_n body_n than_o from_o the_o body_n after_o they_o have_v be_v burn_v viz._n out_o of_o the_o ash_n or_o soot_n of_o they_o which_o be_v their_o excrement_n or_o rather_o the_o excrement_n of_o fire_n or_o else_o after_o the_o body_n have_v undergo_v a_o putrefaction_n which_o be_v analagous_n to_o fire_n now_o this_o be_v so_o in_o relation_n to_o vegetable_n and_o mineral_n i_o think_v in_o may_v not_o be_v amiss_o to_o infer_v that_o the_o alkaly_a to_o be_v find_v in_o animal_n substance_n be_v the_o excrement_n of_o their_o fire_n and_o which_o mighty_o confirm_v i_o in_o this_o notion_n all_o the_o excrement_n of_o animal_n be_v alkalious_a viz._n a_o matter_n throw_v away_o either_o as_o useless_a or_o incommodious_a and_o of_o consequence_n all_o the_o alkaly_a to_o be_v meet_v with_o in_o the_o blood_n or_o elsewhere_o be_v a_o excrement_n in_o a_o way_n of_o be_v carry_v off_o more_o upon_o this_o head_n i_o shall_v not_o say_v at_o this_o time_n by_o reason_n i_o shall_v have_v occasion_n to_o enlarge_v upon_o this_o and_o upon_o the_o heat_n of_o the_o blood_n in_o my_o tract_n of_o fever_n but_o what_o i_o have_v now_o and_o before_o say_v be_v i_o think_v sufficient_a to_o satisfy_v any_o one_o who_o be_v not_o a_o mere_a sceptic_a but_o for_o manifest_a acid_n they_o be_v to_o be_v meet_v with_o every_o where_o almost_o both_o in_o the_o mineral_n and_o vegetable_a kingdom_n even_o in_o those_o body_n that_o have_v never_o undergo_v a_o putrefaction_n but_o be_v in_o the_o great_a state_n of_o perfection_n and_o for_o vinegar_n and_o the_o like_a it_o be_v so_o far_o from_o be_v the_o effect_n of_o putrefaction_n that_o it_o be_v the_o last_o degree_n of_o perfection_n nature_n alone_o be_v capable_a of_o bring_v those_o liquor_n to_o it_o be_v also_o to_o be_v observe_v that_o those_o fruit_n of_o which_o wine_n be_v make_v be_v first_o acid_n before_o they_o come_v to_o a_o state_n fit_a to_o make_v wine_n of_o and_o that_o putrefaction_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o acidness_n of_o unripe_a fruit_n i_o believe_v none_o will_v assert_v this_o subject_n be_v also_o too_o long_o to_o treat_v full_o of_o in_o this_o place_n and_o therefore_o i_o shall_v also_o omit_v the_o further_a prosecution_n of_o it_o for_o a_o practical_a discourse_n reply_n if_o alkaly_n be_v the_o original_a of_o distemper_n whence_o be_v it_o that_o in_o dropsy_n catarrh_n some_o gout_n and_o other_o disease_n we_o find_v the_o texture_n of_o the_o blood_n so_o thin_a it_o be_v observable_a that_o those_o particle_n you_o term_v alkaly_n the_o more_o the_o blood_n be_v saturate_v with_o they_o of_o the_o more_o thick_a consistence_n it_o be_v as_o we_o see_v in_o pleurisy_n rheumatism_n and_o other_o inflammatory_n case_n in_o which_o distemper_n if_o in_o any_o the_o alkaly_n abound_v be_v not_o then_o its_o tenuity_n rather_o to_o be_v impute_v to_o acid_n do_v not_o acid_n immediate_o put_v the_o blood_n in_o a_o fusion_n and_o render_v it_o thin_a your_o answer_n to_o this_o be_v that_o it_o be_v not_o the_o thinness_n of_o the_o blood_n be_v the_o only_a cause_n of_o these_o distemper_n but_o a_o destruction_n of_o the_o tone_n of_o the_o part_n here_o methinks_v you_o do_v not_o argue_v so_o fair_o for_o you_o mention_v little_a or_o nothing_o of_o the_o destruction_n of_o the_o tone_n of_o the_o part_n in_o your_o etymology_n of_o distemper_n till_o now_o and_o why_o may_v not_o i_o as_o well_o say_v in_o inflammatory_n case_n the_o blood_n be_v not_o affect_v with_o any_o alkaline_a particle_n these_o inflammation_n only_o arise_v from_o a_o destruction_n of_o the_o tone_n of_o the_o part_n especial_o if_o you_o consider_v what_o you_o assert_v in_o your_o notion_n of_o fever_n for_o there_o the_o emunctory_n be_v very_o much_o out_o of_o order_n but_o you_o object_n since_o acid_n will_v reduce_v the_o blood_n to_o its_o due_a consistence_n it_o be_v not_o reasonable_a to_o suppose_v they_o shall_v be_v the_o cause_n of_o its_o fusion_n answ_n whether_o acid_n will_v restore_v the_o consistence_n of_o the_o blood_n i_o shall_v examine_v by_o and_o by_o i_o fear_v they_o will_v not_o but_o this_o i_o be_o certain_a of_o they_o will_v put_v it_o in_o a_o fusion_n it_o be_v well_o know_v that_o you_o celebrate_a oil_n of_o vitriol_n take_v alone_o or_o though_o in_o a_o vehicle_n if_o in_o too_o great_a quantity_n kill_v now_o how_o do_v it_o kill_v do_v it_o not_o by_o dissolve_v the_o mass_n of_o blood_n by_o separate_v the_o grumou_n part_n from_o the_o serous_a and_o break_v its_o texture_n after_o the_o same_o manner_n as_o it_o do_v that_o of_o milk_n sure_o i_o be_o that_o blood_n coagulate_v by_o the_o aforesaid_a oil_n do_v much_o more_o resemble_v whey_n and_o curd_n than_o jelly_n of_o hartshorn_n now_o then_o what_o be_v all_o this_o but_o a_o extraordinary_a fusion_n and_o if_o a_o large_a dose_n will_v make_v such_o mad_a work_n and_o put_v the_o blood_n into_o so_o great_a a_o fusion_n certain_o a_o less_o do_v must_v cause_v somewhat_o of_o a_o fusion_n and_o it_o be_v rational_a to_o believe_v that_o oil_n of_o vitriol_n be_v proper_a only_o in_o those_o distemper_n where_o the_o blood_n be_v too_o thick_a very_o pernicious_a in_o such_o as_o have_v it_o too_o thin_a and_o here_o i_o be_o very_o glad_a that_o you_o so_o opportune_o give_v we_o your_o sentiment_n of_o dropsy_n a_o dropsy_n say_v you_o or_o

there_o be_v no_o salt_n but_o what_o have_v more_o or_o less_o of_o a_o damn_a thing_n call_v bittern_n mix_v with_o it_o of_o which_o you_o may_v be_v perfect_o inform_v at_o any_o salt_n work_v now_o this_o bittern_n be_v the_o most_o corrode_a fix_v alka_o in_o nature_n and_o although_o it_o be_v inconsiderable_a in_o quantity_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o acid_n the_o salt_n contain_v yet_o it_o will_v fix_v itself_o upon_o the_o part_n after_o the_o acid_n of_o the_o salt_n be_v all_o dissolve_v and_o so_o excite_v thirst_n of_o this_o bittern_n you_o may_v expect_v more_o in_o
