nature_n of_o it_o with_o its_o difference_n and_o use_n both_o in_o respect_n of_o aliment_n and_o medicament_n and_o with_o its_o application_n to_o every_o individual_a of_o every_o age_n and_o temper_n therefore_o that_o we_o may_v act_v as_o much_o as_o we_o speak_v let_v we_o look_v upon_o the_o quality_n of_o wine_n philosophical_o and_o at_o the_o first_o view_n we_o shall_v discover_v a_o two_o fold_v heat_n in_o it_o as_o it_o issue_v from_o a_o live_a body_n viz._n a_o animal_n and_o elementary_a heat_n for_o though_o wine_n can_v be_v say_v to_o be_v animatum_fw-la such_o as_o give_v a_o soul_n or_o life_n yet_o it_o may_v carry_v with_o it_o and_o to_o its_o self_n the_o impression_n of_o a_o centrall_a or_o implant_v heat_n from_o a_o soul_n as_o may_v plain_o be_v demonstrate_v in_o other_o thing_n as_o the_o seed_n of_o animal_n or_o of_o plant_n have_v not_o a_o soul_n in_o act_n according_a to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o aristotel_n yet_o it_o do_v take_v from_o a_o soul_n such_o a_o generative_a power_n like_o unto_o the_o soul_n which_o aristotel_n say_v be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o vital_a heat_n distinct_a from_o igneous_a and_o elementary_a so_o as_o in_o the_o generation_n of_o a_o live_a creature_n the_o first_o move_v be_v animal_n or_o the_o plant_n from_o which_o the_o seed_n issue_v but_o the_o seed_n be_v the_o instrument_n which_o by_o a_o power_n of_o vitallity_n receive_v from_o the_o plant_n beget_v another_o be_v like_o itself_o since_o therefore_o there_o be_v in_o semine_fw-la a_o vital_a heat_n distinct_a from_o elementary_a why_o may_v we_o not_o affirm_v the_o same_o of_o wine_n which_o in_o like_a manner_n issue_v from_o a_o animate_v body_n then_o will_v wine_n appear_v to_o have_v a_o double_a heat_n or_o one_o conflate_v or_o move_v out_o of_o two_o and_o that_o which_o be_v great_a and_o intense_a do_v not_o consist_v of_o a_o indivisible_a because_o it_o be_v great_a or_o less_o according_a to_o the_o variety_n of_o species_n and_o diversity_n of_o situation_n or_o place_n for_o in_o those_o region_n where_o the_o sun_n effect_n a_o strong_a heat_n there_o grow_v hot_a wine_n &_o this_o heat_n be_v not_o external_a but_o rather_o natural_a and_o implant_v in_o the_o wine_n because_o from_o the_o heat_n of_o the_o place_n the_o vital_a and_o elementary_a heat_n which_o constitute_v the_o natural_a heat_n of_o the_o wine_n do_v become_v more_o great_a and_o intense_a nor_o can_v it_o be_v deny_v in_o wine_n to_o be_v a_o double_a moisture_n according_a to_o galen_n who_o distinguish_v the_o substance_n vinosa_n from_o the_o substance_n aquosa_n the_o qualitas_fw-la vinosa_fw-la be_v that_o humidity_n inherent_a which_o do_v unite_v the_o part_n &_o the_o waterish_a substance_n be_v only_o that_o which_o be_v contract_v from_o aliment_n for_o so_o long_o as_o the_o grape_n be_v conjoin_v to_o the_o vine_n there_o do_v flow_v there_o unto_o a_o waterish_a humour_n by_o which_o it_o be_v nourish_v and_o after_o it_o be_v separate_v from_o the_o vine_n do_v still_o retain_v that_o waterish_a humour_n which_o as_o then_o be_v not_o convert_v nor_o assimulate_v into_o the_o substance_n of_o wine_n nor_o can_v it_o have_v any_o further_a conversion_n because_o the_o wine_n be_v now_o no_o more_o animatum_fw-la or_o able_a to_o produce_v it_o into_o act_n and_o this_o be_v that_o humidity_n in_o wine_n which_o be_v spend_v or_o waste_v in_o boil_a the_o other_o remain_v which_o be_v innate_a &_o fix_v to_o the_o substance_n of_o wine_n and_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o the_o boil_a of_o wine_n do_v render_v it_o more_o sweet_a for_o by_o the_o expense_n of_o this_o humidity_n the_o juice_n return_v to_o its_o own_o natural_a moisture_n and_o this_o i_o hope_v will_v be_v satisfaction_n concern_v the_o general_n nature_n of_o wine_n which_o familiarity_n with_o human_a nature_n will_v appear_v the_o nature_n of_o all_o wine_n be_v either_o corroberative_a &_o nutritive_a or_o mundificative_a or_o apperative_a and_o these_o be_v not_o only_o testify_v by_o the_o ancient_a and_o learned_a physician_n but_o prove_v out_o of_o their_o own_o existence_n &_o prime_a animation_n which_o will_v be_v hereafter_o demonstrate_v in_o our_o progress_n therefore_o we_o can_v but_o take_v notice_n of_o the_o distinction_n of_o wine_n by_o their_o name_n and_o colour_n concern_v their_o difference_n in_o name_n they_o be_v sovarious_a as_o to_o render_v they_o in_o all_o their_o appellation_n will_v relish_v more_o of_o curiosity_n than_o utility_n many_o of_o they_o be_v fantastical_o impose_v by_o the_o wanton_a singularity_n in_o merchant_n of_o all_o nation_n but_o so_o many_o as_o philosopher_n physician_n and_o poet_n have_v notefied_a i_o shall_v brief_o declare_v and_o then_o pass_v to_o their_o colour_n in_o the_o first_o place_n let_v we_o take_v notice_n of_o the_o general_n name_n vinum_fw-la and_o so_o denominate_v à _fw-la
