A00508 The difference betwene the auncient phisicke, first taught by the godly forefathers, consisting in vnitie peace and concord: and the latter phisicke proceeding from idolaters, ethnickes, and heathen: as Gallen, and such other consisting in dualitie, discorde, and contrarietie And wherein the naturall philosophie of Aristotle doth differ from the trueth of Gods worde, and is iniurious to Christianitie and sounde doctrine.

essenty_n separate_v among_o who_o those_o orb_n be_v distribute_v to_o be_v equal_a and_o like_a substance_n but_o he_o allow_v that_o mind_n or_o essence_n which_o be_v the_o elder_a that_o be_v
