carry_v upward_o other_o downward_o and_o so_o break_v the_o union_n which_o preserve_v our_o life_n albert_n the_o great_a assign_v a_o five_o cause_n namely_o the_o contrariety_n of_o form_n and_o quality_n death_n happen_v when_o humidity_n have_v give_v place_n to_o dryness_n but_o because_o this_o excess_n of_o dryness_n may_v be_v correct_v by_o its_o contrary_n therefore_o the_o modern_n lay_v the_o fault_n upon_o the_o radical_a moisture_n which_o some_o of_o they_o say_v we_o receive_v from_o our_o parent_n and_o be_v continual_o impair_v without_o be_v at_o all_o recruit_v from_o the_o birth_n but_o this_o be_v absurd_a for_o then_o the_o son_n must_v have_v infinite_o less_o than_o his_o father_n because_o he_o receive_v but_o a_o very_a small_a portion_n which_o beside_o can_v be_v distribute_v through_o a_o great_a body_n nor_o afford_v supply_n to_o so_o many_o action_n other_o more_o probable_o affirm_v that_o the_o humidum_fw-la which_o be_v repair_v be_v not_o of_o the_o same_o purity_n with_o that_o which_o we_o derive_v from_o the_o principle_n of_o our_o birth_n by_o reason_n of_o reaction_n and_o its_o be_v continual_o alter_v by_o our_o heat_n but_o that_o which_o indubitate_v this_o reason_n be_v that_o the_o element_n do_v not_o maintain_v themselves_o but_o by_o reaction_n notwithstanding_o which_o they_o cease_v not_o to_o be_v always_o in_o the_o same_o state_n fire_v as_o hot_a air_n as_o moist_a as_o ever_o it_o be_v inasmuch_o as_o the_o substantial_a form_n expel_v all_o quality_n which_o be_v not_o suitable_a to_o themselves_o and_o recover_v their_o natural_a one_o without_o other_o assistance_n moreover_o when_o old_a man_n beget_v child_n they_o communicate_v to_o they_o a_o excellent_a radical_a humidity_n otherwise_o there_o will_v be_v no_o generation_n and_o consequent_o they_o can_v do_v as_o well_o for_o themselves_o as_o for_o their_o posterity_n but_o if_o they_o give_v they_o such_o as_o be_v bad_a and_o corrupt_a it_o follow_v that_o their_o child_n who_o live_v after_o their_o death_n re-produce_a much_o better_a by_o their_o nutrition_n then_o that_o which_o they_o have_v receive_v and_o consequent_o the_o radical_a humidity_n may_v not_o only_o be_v repair_v but_o meliorate_v and_o there_o be_v no_o reason_n why_o a_o exact_a course_n of_o diet_n may_v not_o keep_v a_o man_n from_o die_v as_o the_o chemist_n promise_n i_o have_v therefore_o rather_o say_v that_o as_o the_o union_n of_o the_o soul_n with_o the_o body_n be_v unknown_a to_o humane_a wit_n so_o be_v their_o disunion_n which_o i_o ascribe_v rather_o to_o the_o pleasure_n of_o the_o supreme_a ruler_n who_o cause_v we_o to_o abide_v sentinel_n as_o long_o as_o he_o think_v meet_v then_o to_o any_o natural_a thing_n which_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o those_o that_o deprive_v themselves_o of_o life_n be_v just_o punish_v because_o they_o dispose_v of_o what_o be_v not_o their_o own_o although_o it_o seem_v to_o the_o vulgar_a that_o they_o do_v wrong_a to_o none_o but_o themselves_o because_o it_o be_v by_o their_o own_o will_n and_o act_n the_o four_o say_v what_o be_v compose_v of_o contrary_n between_o which_o there_o be_v continual_a action_n necessary_o receive_v sundry_a change_n and_o alteration_n in_o its_o be_v which_o by_o degree_n bring_v it_o to_o a_o total_a corruption_n this_o be_v conspicuous_o see_v in_o the_o life_n of_o man_n the_o age_n and_o all_o other_o mutation_n whereof_o be_v as_o so_o many_o step_n towards_o death_n it_o be_v the_o most_o worthy_a employment_n of_o a_o man_n to_o consider_v that_o he_o die_v every_o day_n for_o as_o seneca_n say_v that_o which_o deceive_v we_o be_v that_o we_o consider_v death_n as_o afar_o off_o whereas_o a_o great_a part_n of_o it_o be_v already_o pass_v for_o it_o already_o possess_v all_o the_o time_n that_o we_o have_v be_v which_o be_v the_o cause_n that_o instead_o of_o employ_v our_o time_n profitable_o we_o consume_v a_o great_a part_n of_o it_o in_o do_v nothing_o a_o great_a part_n in_o do_v ill_a and_o all_o in_o do_v other_o thing_n than_o ought_v to_o be_v which_o proceed_v from_o not_o think_v often_o enough_o

not_o only_o compatible_a with_o courage_n but_o that_o he_o who_o fear_v it_o not_o at_o all_o rather_o deserve_v the_o name_n of_o mad_a then_o valiant_a the_o five_o say_v that_o they_o who_o

day_n and_o the_o night_n which_o be_v part_n of_o time_n moreover_o the_o contrary_a reason_n prove_v nothing_o save_v that_o time_n be_v not_o of_o the_o nature_n of_o continuous_a being_n but_o of_o successive_a which_o consist_v in_o have_v no_o part_n real_o present_a this_o time_n be_v define_v by_o the_o philosopher_n the_o number_n of_o motion_n according_a to_o its_o prior_n and_o

first_o part_v answer_n to_o the_o first_o part_n of_o motion_n and_o the_o latter_a part_n of_o the_o space_n to_o the_o latter_a part_n of_o the_o motion_n and_o from_o this_o succession_n of_o the_o latter_a part_n of_o the_o motion_n to_o the_o former_a arise_v a_o duration_n which_o be_v time_n long_o or_o short_a according_a to_o the_o slowness_n or_o quickness_n of_o this_o motion_n and_o because_o by_o mean_n of_o this_o duration_n we_o number_n and_o measure_n that_o of_o motion_n and_o of_o all_o our_o action_n therefore_o it_o be_v call_v number_n or_o measure_n although_o it_o be_v only_o a_o propriety_n of_o time_n to_o serve_v for_o a_o measure_n and_o no_o way_n of_o its_o essence_n the_o four_o say_v that_o to_o understand_v time_n it_o be_v requisite_a to_o understand_v the_o motion_n and_o two_o moment_n one_o whereof_o be_v at_o the_o begin_n of_o that_o motion_n and_o the_o other_o at_o the_o end_n and_o then_o to_o imagine_v the_o middle_n or_o

understand_v and_o compute_v time_n hence_o they_o who_o wake_v out_o of_o a_o deep_a and_o long_a sleep_n think_v it_o but_o a_o small_a while_n since_o they_o first_o lie_v down_o to_o rest_n because_o they_o take_v no_o notice_n of_o the_o intermediate_v motion_n and_o think_v the_o moment_n wherein_o they_o fall_v asleep_a and_o that_o wherein_o they_o wake_v be_v but_o one_o single_a moment_n the_o same_o also_o happen_v to_o those_o who_o be_v so_o intent_n upon_o any_o action_n or_o contemplation_n that_o they_o heed_v not_o the_o duration_n of_o motion_n now_o not_o only_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o body_n but_o those_o of_o the_o mind_n be_v measure_v by_o time_n therefore_o in_o the_o dark_a he_o that_o shall_v perceive_v no_o outward_a motion_n not_o even_o in_o his_o own_o body_n may_v yet_o conceive_v time_n by_o the_o duration_n of_o his_o soul_n action_n his_o thought_n desire_n and_o other_o spiritual_a motion_n and_o as_o time_n be_v the_o measure_n of_o motion_n so_o it_o be_v likewise_o of_o rest_n since_o the_o reason_n of_o contrary_n be_v the_o same_o and_o consequent_o motion_n and_o rest_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o all_o thing_n time_n which_o be_v their_o duration_n be_v also_o their_o universal_a cause_n the_o five_o say_v that_o it_o be_v ordinary_a to_o man_n to_o attribute_v the_o effect_n whereof_o they_o know_v not_o the_o cause_n to_o other_o know_a cause_n though_o indeed_o they_o be_v nothing_o less_o so_o they_o attribute_v misfortune_n loss_n death_n oblivion_n and_o such_o other_o thing_n to_o heaven_n to_o time_n or_o
