A87213 Medicina magnetica: or, The rare and wonderful art of curing by sympathy: laid open in aphorismes; proved in conclusions; and digested into an easy method drawn from both: wherein the connexion of the causes and effects of these strange operations, are more fully dicovered than heretofore. All cleared and confirmed, by pithy reasons, true experiments, and pleasant relations. / Preserved and published, as a master-piece in this skill. By C. de Iryngio, chirurgo-medcine [sic] in the Army. Irvine, Christopher, fl. 1638-1685. 1656 (1656) Wing I1053; Thomason E1578_1; ESTC R202607 75,143 126

circumscribe_v in_o a_o organical_a body_n the_o proof_n and_o explaination_n no_o true_a philosopher_n will_v deny_v this_o the_o platonist_n place_v not_o the_o soul_n in_o the_o body_n but_o the_o body_n in_o the_o soul_n and_o the_o peripatetic_n themselves_o do_v with_o aristotle_n confess_v that_o the_o soul_n do_v execute_v some_o action_n without_o the_o body_n nay_o it_o seem_v very_o absurd_a to_o shut_v up_o so_o noble_a a_o essence_n in_o so_o narrow_a and_o straight_o a_o prison_n neither_o be_v there_o want_v some_o divine_n who_o attribute_v acerta_fw-la in_o ubiquity_n to_o the_o soul_n affirm_v it_o to_o be_v there_o where_o it_o work_v for_o what_o can_v be_v devise_v more_o unlikely_a than_o to_o conclude_v that_o most_o noble_a essence_n as_o bound_v and_o

it_o comprehend_v be_v more_o excellent_a in_o operation_n and_o power_n than_o the_o thing_n comprehend_v that_o the_o imagination_n work_v without_o it_o and_o beyond_o its_o own_o body_n i_o take_v it_o to_o be_v manifest_a and_o if_o any_o man_n doubt_n of_o it_o he_o will_v be_v convince_v by_o experience_n for_o it_o work_v in_o the_o embryo_n neither_o can_v fascination_n be_v otherwise_o

our_o purpose_n therefore_o we_o must_v show_v more_o clear_o what_o we_o mean_v by_o this_o conclusion_n we_o do_v then_o under_o it_o and_o by_o it_o mean_v nothing_o else_o but_o that_o the_o soul_n must_v necessary_o be_v wheresoever_o the_o vital_a spirit_n be_v find_v for_o the_o vital_a spirit_n be_v the_o bond_n by_o which_o the_o soul_n be_v tie_v to_o the_o body_n or_o rather_o it_o be_v the_o undivided_a companion_n of_o the_o soul_n bring_v by_o the_o soul_n from_o heaven_n by_o which_o the_o soul_n join_v itself_o with_o the_o body_n by_o mean_n and_o mediation_n whereof_o it_o give_v the_o form_n of_o the_o body_n and_o if_o by_o the_o frown_n of_o the_o destiny_n it_o be_v forsake_v by_o the_o particular_a soul_n it_o return_v to_o its_o common_a country_n but_o be_v never_o extend_v further_a than_o the_o soul_n itself_o without_o which_o the_o spirit_n can_v subsist_v then_o if_o a_o man_n body_n work_v something_o without_o itself_o sure_o it_o work_v as_o inform_v by_o the_o soul_n and_o shall_v it_o not_o then_o work_v vital_o and_o produce_v vital_a action_n but_o how_o i_o pray_v you_o shall_v it_o produce_v they_o without_o doubt_n in_o and_o by_o the_o virtue_n and_o power_n of_o the_o form_n that_o be_v the_o soul_n but_o except_o i_o be_v deceive_v there_o can_v nothing_o work_v by_o the_o power_n of_o another_o and_o not_o be_v partaker_n of_o it_o therefore_o the_o active_a beam_n that_o produce_v such_o effect_n without_o the_o body_n must_v needs_o be_v partaker_n of_o the_o soul_n by_o which_o they_o work_v and_o i_o think_v no_o man_n can_v be_v so_o senseless_a to_o deny_v action_n extrinsical_a or_o without_o the_o body_n to_o man_n the_o most_o noble_a compound_n and_o grant_v they_o to_o plant_n and_o stone_n but_o that_o operation_n depend_v on_o form_n it_o always_o seem_v true_a to_o the_o most_o learned_a the_o seed_n do_v as_o some_o will_v have_v it_o beget_v the_o embryo_n in_o the_o mother_n which_o it_o can_v not_o do_v be_v it_o not_o uphold_v and_o furnish_v with_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o father_n soul_n but_o i_o hear_v some_o whisper_n that_o this_o opinion_n can_v be_v no_o way_n consonant_n to_o truth_n because_o that_o then_o if_o the_o father_n shall_v die_v assoon_o as_o he_o have_v beget_v the_o child_n his_o soul_n be_v free_a from_o the_o bond_n of_o the_o body_n go_v to_o its_o appoint_a place_n and_o how_o then_o can_v it_o work_v in_o the_o embryo_n but_o to_o he_o that_o consider_v the_o matter_n well_o this_o will_v appear_v of_o no_o great_a difficulty_n whether_o we_o say_v that_o the_o soul_n be_v not_o utter_o and_o absolute_o free_a as_o long_o as_o any_o vital_a spirit_n remain_v anywhere_o safe_a and_o untouched_a for_o it_o there_o stick_v and_o abide_v as_o long_o and_o until_o its_o subject_n be_v quite_o turn_v into_o a_o other_o thing_n but_o because_o it_o want_v organ_n as_o in_o a_o apoplexy_n it_o can_v perform_v any_o sencelike_a action_n or_o whether_o we_o will_v say_v rather_o the_o soul_n be_v necessary_o present_a at_o these_o operation_n by_o a_o certain_a presence_n and_o yet_o not_o hinder_v but_o that_o in_o another_o place_n it_o may_v perform_v other_o work_n for_o see_v that_o the_o soul_n do_v by_o wonderful_a and_o strange_a mean_n produce_v many_o thing_n in_o the_o body_n and_o be_v after_o divers_a manner_n in_o divers_a place_n why_o shall_v it_o not_o when_o it_o be_v free_a from_o the_o body_n do_v the_o same_o thing_n or_o the_o like_a so_o it_o want_v not_o its_o instrument_n of_o its_o proper_a natural_a heat_n which_o only_o be_v fit_a to_o produce_v such_o a_o effect_n but_o of_o what_o have_v be_v say_v the_o cause_n be_v plain_a why_o about_o the_o grave_n of_o they_o that_o die_v a_o violent_a death_n there_o be_v apparition_n see_v for_o the_o vital_a heat_n and_o natural_a moisture_n be_v not_o quite_o dissolve_v the_o soul_n stick_v and_o give_v sometime_o in_o these_o exhallation_n impregnate_v with_o the_o spirit_n the_o shape_n and_o form_n of_o a_o man_n and_o the_o same_o may_v be_v the_o reason_n why_o sometime_o in_o churchyard_n such_o thing_n appear_v and_o from_o the_o same_o head_n it_o be_v that_o the_o slay_a corpse_n bleed_v at_o the_o presence_n or_o touch_n of_o the_o murderer_n for_o the_o soul_n be_v yet_o present_a do_v by_o the_o

so_o call_v the_o proof_n and_o explanation_n of_o this_o this_o second_o conclusion_n have_v nothing_o which_o be_v not_o manifest_a in_o the_o former_a and_o of_o itself_o be_v clear_a and_o confess_v by_o all_o man_n for_o if_o the_o soul_n be_v without_o the_o body_n it_o can_v and_o shall_v without_o doubt_n work_v there_o for_o the_o soul_n in_o its_o essence_n include_v act_n be_v

the_o giver_n of_o the_o form_n yet_o so_o give_v form_n that_o both_o in_o their_o being_n and_o operation_n they_o shall_v depend_v upon_o it_o and_o whatsoever_o be_v be_v dispense_v and_o give_v by_o it_o plato_n seem_v to_o have_v place_v in_o man_n a_o threefold_a distinct_a form_n yet_o depend_v on_o the_o common_a soul_n it_o be_v true_a that_o to_o these_o inferior_a form_n the_o name_n

a_o care_n of_o his_o excrement_n but_o now_o let_v we_o return_v to_o the_o conclusion_n which_o affirm_v that_o these_o excrement_n do_v also_o live_v which_o though_o at_o first_o do_v seem_v a_o

shall_v think_v so_o well_o this_o only_a i_o will_v say_v of_o excrement_n that_o unless_o they_o live_v with_o the_o same_o life_n that_o wight_n do_v after_o a_o manner_n certain_o they_o will_v want_v the_o vital_a spirit_n of_o which_o we_o speak_v before_o and_o which_o we_o have_v above_o prove_v and_o will_v not_o all_o this_o clear_o demonstrate_v that_o they_o have_v and_o do_v plentiful_o enjoy_v it_o moreover_o who_o can_v deny_v that_o the_o nail_n and_o hair_n have_v life_n that_o have_v observe_v in_o they_o a_o augmentative_a or_o assimulative_a faculty_n at_o lest_o who_o can_v deny_v it_o so_o long_o as_o they_o remain_v fasten_v to_o the_o body_n though_o they_o want_v sense_n as_o the_o bone_n and_o other_o necessary_a part_n of_o the_o organical_a body_n do_v now_o if_o they_o live_v when_o they_o remain_v join_v to_o the_o body_n these_o shall_v likeways_o live_v when_o they_o be_v separate_v from_o the_o body_n as_o long_o as_o they_o be_v nail_n and_o hair_n have_v still_o the_o same_o form_n as_o they_o have_v before_o witness_v the_o accident_n or_o the_o substantial_a mood_n which_o abide_v still_o the_o same_o depend_v of_o the_o same_o

propagate_v by_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o soul_n by_o the_o mediation_n of_o the_o vital_a spirit_n in_o conclusion_n a_o man_n may_v thus_o argue_v for_o any_o excrement_n all_o excrement_n of_o the_o body_n by_o mean_n of_o some_o manner_n of_o digestion_n have_v change_v the_o form_n they_o have_v before_o that_o digestion_n and_o put_v on_o another_o as_o may_v be_v know_v by_o their_o
