philosophical_o be_v object_v in_o this_o manner_n two_o contrary_a quality_n and_o disagree_v can_v be_v in_fw-la gradu_fw-la intenso_fw-la in_o one_o and_o the_o same_o subject_a cacao_n be_v cold_a and_o dry_a in_o predominency_n therefore_o it_o can_v have_v the_o quality_n contrary_a to_o those_o which_o be_v heat_n and_o moisture_n the_o first_o proposition_n be_v most_o certain_a and_o ground_v upon_o good_a philosophy_n the_o second_o be_v consent_v unto_o by_o all_o the_o three_o which_o be_v the_o conclusion_n be_v regular_a it_o can_v be_v deny_v but_o that_o the_o argument_n be_v very_o strong_a and_o these_o reason_n be_v consider_v by_o he_o of_o marchena_n have_v make_v he_o affirm_v that_o chocolate_n be_v obstructive_a it_o seem_v to_o be_v contrary_a to_o philosophy_n that_o it_o there_o shall_v be_v find_v heat_n and_o moisture_n in_fw-la gradu_fw-la intenso_fw-la and_o to_o be_v so_o likewise_o in_o cold_a and_o dry_a to_o this_o there_o be_v two_o thing_n to_o be_v answer_v one_o that_o he_o never_o see_v the_o experience_n of_o draw_v out_o the_o butter_n which_o i_o have_v do_v and_o that_o when_o the_o chocolate_n be_v make_v without_o add_v any_o thing_n to_o the_o dry_a powder_n which_o be_v incorporate_v only_o by_o beat_v it_o well_o together_o and_o be_v unite_v and_o make_v into_o a_o paste_n which_o be_v a_o sign_n that_o there_o be_v a_o moist_a and_o glutinous_a part_n which_o of_o necessity_n must_v correspond_v with_o the_o element_n of_o air_n the_o other_o reason_n we_o will_v draw_v from_o philosophy_n affirm_v that_o in_o the_o cacao_n there_o be_v different_a substance_n in_o the_o one_o that_o be_v to_o say_v in_o that_o which_o be_v not_o so_o fat_a it_o have_v a_o great_a quantity_n of_o the_o oily_a then_o of_o the_o earthy_a substance_n and_o in_o the_o fat_a part_n it_o have_v more_o of_o the_o earthy_a than_o of_o the_o oily_a substance_n in_o these_o there_o be_v heat_n and_o moisture_n in_o predominancy_n and_o in_o the_o other_o cold_a and_o dry_a notwithstanding_o that_o it_o be_v hard_a to_o be_v believe_v that_o in_o one_o and_o the_o same_o substance_n and_o so_o little_a of_o the_o cacao_n it_o can_v have_v substance_n so_o different_a to_o the_o end_n that_o it_o may_v appear_v more_o easy_a clear_a and_o evident_a first_o we_o see_v it_o in_o the_o rhubarb_n which_o have_v in_o it_o hot_a and_o soluble_a part_n and_o part_n which_o be_v bind_v cold_a and_o dry_v which_o have_v a_o virtue_n to_o strengthen_v bind_v and_o stop_v the_o looseness_n of_o the_o belly_n i_o say_v also_o that_o he_o that_o see_v and_o consider_v the_o steel_n so_o much_o of_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o earth_n as_o be_v heavy_a thick_a cold_a and_o dry_a it_o seem_v to_o be_v think_v unproper_a for_o the_o care_n of_o oppilation_n but_o rather_o to_o be_v apt_a to_o increase_v they_o and_o yet_o it_o be_v give_v for_o a_o proper_a remedy_n against_o they_o this_o difficulty_n be_v clear_v thus_o that_o though_o it_o be_v true_a that_o it_o have_v much_o of_o the_o earthy_a part_n yet_o it_o have_v also_o part_n of_o sulphur_n and_o of_o quicksilver_n which_o do_v open_a and_o disopilate_v neither_o do_v it_o so_o until_o it_o be_v help_v by_o art_n as_o it_o be_v ground_n stir_v and_o make_v fine_a in_o the_o prepare_n of_o it_o the_o sulphurous_a part_n and_o those_o of_o quicksilver_n be_v thin_a active_a and_o penetrative_a they_o mingle_v at_o the_o last_o with_o those_o part_n which_o be_v earthy_a and_o astringent_a insomuch_o that_o they_o be_v mingle_v after_o this_o manner_n one_o with_o another_o we_o can_v now_o say_v that_o the_o steel_n be_v astringent_a but_o rather_o that_o it_o be_v penetrative_a attenuate_v and_o open_v let_v we_o prove_v this_o doctrine_n by_o authority_n and_o let_v the_o first_o be_v from_o galen_n lib._n 3._o of_o the_o quality_n of_o simple_n cap._n 14._o where_o first_o of_o all_o he_o teach_v that_o almost_o all_o those_o medicine_n which_o to_o our_o sense_n seem_v to_o be_v simple_a be_v notwithstanding_o natural_o compound_v contain_v in_o themselves_o contrary_a quality_n and_o that_o be_v to_o say_v a_o quality_n to_o expel_v and_o to_o retain_v to_o incrassate_v and_o attenuate_v to_o rarify_v and_o to_o condense_v neither_o be_v we_o to_o wonder_v at_o it_o it_o be_v understand_v that_o in_o every_o foresaid_a medicine_n there_o be_v a_o quality_n to_o heat_n and_o to_o cool_v to_o moisten_v and_o to_o dry_v and_o whatsoever_o medicine_n it_o be_v it_o have_v in_o it_o thick_a and_o

which_o it_o have_v be_v but_o weak_a that_o this_o differ_a virtue_n and_o faculty_n be_v find_v in_o divers_a substance_n or_o part_n of_o simple_a medicament_n galen_n show_v in_o the_o first_o

contain_v in_o itself_o divers_a quality_n and_o virtue_n in_o the_o colour_n in_o the_o smell_n and_o in_o other_o accident_n aristotle_n in_o the_o four_o book_n of_o the_o meteor_n and_o the_o

by_o the_o doctrine_n of_o galen_n and_o of_o aristotle_n divers_a substance_n be_v attribute_v to_o every_o of_o the_o mix_v under_o one_o and_o the_o same_o form_n and_o quantity_n which_o be_v very_o conformable_a to_o reason_n if_o we_o consider_v that_o every_o aliment_n be_v it_o never_o so_o simple_a beget_v and_o produce_v in_o the_o liver_n four_o humour_n not_o only_o differ_v in_o

that_o humour_n which_o be_v most_o engender_v and_o so_o in_o cold_a disease_n we_o give_v warm_a nourishment_n and_o cold_a nourishment_n in_o hot_a disease_n from_o which_o evident_a example_n and_o many_o other_o which_o we_o may_v produce_v to_o this_o purpose_n we_o may_v gather_v that_o when_o we_o grind_v and_o stir_v the_o cacao_n the_o divers_a part_n which_o nature_n have_v give_v it_o do_v artificial_o and_o intimate_o mix_v themselves_o one_o with_o a_o other_o and_o so_o the_o vuctuous_a warm_a and_o moist_a part_n mingle_v with_o the_o earthy_a as_o we_o have_v say_v of_o the_o steel_n repress_n and_o leave_v they_o not_o so_o bind_v as_o they_o be_v before_o but_o rather_o with_o a_o mediocrity_n more_o incline_v to_o the_o warm_a and_o moist_a temper_n of_o the_o air_n then_o to_o the_o cold_a and_o dry_a of_o the_o earth_n as_o it_o do_v appear_v when_o it_o be_v make_v fit_a to_o drink_v that_o you_o scarce_o give_v it_o two_o turn_n with_o the_o molinet_n when_o there_o rise_v a_o fatty_a scum_n by_o which_o you_o may_v see_v how_o much_o it_o partake_v of_o the_o oily_a part_n from_o which_o doctrine_n i_o gather_v that_o the_o author_n of_o marchena_n be_v in_o a_o error_n who_o write_v of_o chocolate_n say_v that_o it_o cause_v oppilation_n because_o cacao_n be_v astringent_a as_o if_o that_o astriction_n be_v not_o correct_v by_o the_o intimate_a mix_n of_o one_o part_n with_o a_o other_o by_o mean_n of_o the_o grind_n as_o be_v say_v before_o beside_o it_o have_v so_o many_o ingredient_n which_o be_v natural_o hot_a it_o must_v of_o necessity_n have_v this_o effect_n that_o be_v to_o say_v to_o open_v attenuate_v and_o not_o to_o bind_v and_o indeed_o there_o be_v no_o cause_n of_o bring_v more_o example_n or_o produce_v more_o reason_n for_o this_o truth_n then_o that_o which_o we_o
