this_o point_n we_o may_v safe_o follow_v galen_n but_o not_o in_o the_o other_o both_o because_o he_o be_v deceive_v as_o have_v be_v prove_v and_o because_o his_o judgement_n and_o authority_n in_o

art_n and_o never_o come_v at_o the_o root_n oftentimes_o also_o he_o fail_v in_o logic_n and_o natural_a philosophy_n and_o in_o his_o discourse_n of_o motus_fw-la and_o anima_fw-la how_o slender_o he_o be_v see_v in_o astrology_n may_v appear_v by_o his_o computation_n which_o he_o make_v of_o the_o course_n of_o the_o moon_n and_o conciliator_n defence_n of_o he_o be_v that_o in_o his_o time_n the_o motion_n of_o heaven_n and_o that_o skill_n be_v very_a gazen_n and_o scarce_o well_o find_v far_o he_o plain_o refuse_v to_o give_v the_o reason_n why_o the_o moon_n shall_v have_v any_o such_o force_n in_o these_o quadrangular_a and_o opposite_a sign_n allege_v only_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o egyptian_n who_o notwithstanding_o in_o the_o sixth_o book_n of_o simple_n he_o taunt_v and_o condemn_v as_o doter_n neither_o can_v they_o be_v observe_v of_o such_o as_o never_o well_o know_v the_o course_n of_o the_o moon_n for_o hipparchus_n of_o rhodes_n be_v the_o first_o that_o in_o this_o point_n come_v any_o thing_n near_o the_o truth_n after_o he_o ptolemy_n do_v better_a yet_o so_o that_o the_o arabian_n do_v not_o allow_v of_o he_o our_o modern_a master_n the_o course_n of_o the_o moon_n be_v better_o find_v have_v pick_v a_o new_a reason_n out_o of_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o sign_n which_o agree_v neither_o with_o the_o truth_n nor_o with_o galen_n who_o they_o follow_v nor_o with_o their_o position_n which_o they_o defend_v the_o quadrangular_a and_o opposite_a sign_n say_v they_o have_v contrary_a quality_n they_o mean_v for_o heat_n cold_a dryness_n and_o moisture_n either_o both_o or_o the_o active_a quality_n at_o least_o then_o go_v on_o they_o far_o add_v that_o the_o quadrangular_a and_o opposite_a aspect_n be_v contrary_a upon_o these_o supposition_n they_o infer_v that_o when_o the_o moon_n be_v come_v to_o these_o place_n which_o be_v contrary_a to_o those_o which_o it_o be_v in_o at_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o disease_n than_o nature_n &_o the_o disease_n strive_v for_o example_n say_v they_o if_o the_o moon_n be_v in_o taurus_n when_o one_o fall_v sick_a when_o it_o come_v to_o the_o quadrangular_a or_o opposite_a place_n to_o wit_n leo_n or_o scorpius_n then_o be_v deadly_o feid_v between_o the_o disease_n and_o nature_n hence_o we_o infer_v that_o the_o moon_n will_v much_o more_o do_v it_o when_o she_o be_v in_o gemini_fw-la which_o differ_v from_o leo_n more_o than_o taurus_n do_v the_o like_a will_v fall_v out_o when_o she_o be_v in_o libra_n which_o differ_v from_o taurus_n more_o than_o do_v scorpius_n this_o argument_n or_o consequence_n be_v to_o be_v prove_v even_o out_o of_o the_o astrologer_n themselves_o for_o by_o their_o position_n the_o sign_n of_o taurus_n be_v dry_a &_o cold_a leo_n dry_a and_o hot_a scorpius_n dry_a and_o cold_a gemini_fw-la hot_a and_o moist_a to_o this_o perhaps_o they_o will_v reply_v that_o these_o sign_n be_v not_o join_v by_o any_o aspect_n again_o we_o prove_v that_o there_o be_v no_o contrariety_n in_o these_o place_n for_o if_o they_o be_v contrary_a the_o moon_n by_o their_o position_n shall_v show_v this_o contrary_a effect_n as_o soon_o as_o it_o come_v to_o any_o place_n of_o contrary_a quality_n but_o it_o come_v from_o a_o cold_a and_o dry_a place_n to_o a_o hot_a and_o moist_a &_o yield_v not_o the_o contrary_a effect_n therefore_o this_o position_n fall_v now_o if_o they_o will_v say_v that_o the_o force_n consist_v in_o the_o aspect_n themselves_o they_o ought_v consequent_o to_o hold_v that_o the_o moon_n come_v to_o trigonall_a sign_n shall_v fortify_v the_o disease_n because_o there_o be_v as_o much_o force_n to_o concord_n in_o triangle_n as_o to_o discord_n in_o square_n for_o as_o by_o reason_n of_o discord_n of_o quality_n quadrangle_v stir_v up_o the_o disease_n so_o by_o reason_n of_o concord_n triangle_n shall_v not_o stir_v they_o up_o this_o be_v thus_o that_o will_v follow_v to_o cross_v the_o rule_n of_o physician_n that_o the_o 11_o day_n will_v be_v hurtful_a which_o notwithstanding_o be_v otherwise_o by_o their_o rule_n see_v that_o the_o moon_n the_o 11._o day_n almost_o grow_v trigonall_a far_o it_o can_v be_v as_o physician_n hold_v that_o the_o sixth_o &_o eight_o day_n among_o the_o rest_n cause_n ill_a commotion_n for_o this_o be_v against_o astrology_n which_o upon_o those_o day_n bring_v the_o moon_n to_o square_a aspect_n again_o why_o count_v they_o the_o ten_o day_n &_o twelve_o hurtful_a the_o moon_n than_o not_o be_v place_v in_o any_o aspect_n with_o the_o sign_n of_o the_o disease_n but_o neither_o by_o reason_n of_o sun_n moon_n nor_o constellation_n can_v they_o find_v any_o cause_n why_o the_o critical_a day_n shall_v be_v sometime_o even_o sometime_o odd_a for_o to_o let_v the_o rest_n pass_v now_o they_o make_v the_o 41._o day_n critical_a after_o that_o they_o draw_v in_o even_a day_n the_o 60_o the_o 80_o and_o the_o 120._o then_o they_o go_v by_o month_n and_o year_n for_o the_o constellation_n in_o these_o time_n do_v much_o vary_v as_o the_o astrologer_n say_v whereas_o the_o physician_n will_v have_v their_o critical_a day_n to_o be_v set_v continual_a and_o uniform_a to_o shut_v up_o this_o discourse_n let_v we_o hear_v the_o shameful_a error_n of_o conciliator_n the_o malice_n of_o the_o sixth_o day_n which_o galen_n compare_v to_o a_o tyrant_n as_o the_o seven_o day_n to_o a_o king_n may_v be_v say_v he_o reduce_v to_o the_o moon_n which_o come_v with_o more_o speed_n to_o the_o tetragonal_a aspect_n the_o goodness_n of_o the_o seven_o he_o charge_v upon_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o tetragonall_a which_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o sign_n of_o the_o disease_n so_o from_o the_o square_n he_o derive_v both_o the_o malice_n of_o the_o sixth_o and_o the_o goodness_n of_o the_o seven_o farther_o the_o circuit_n of_o humour_n he_o reduce_v to_o the_o star_n the_o slow_a circuit_n of_o melancholy_n for_o that_o lie_v quiet_a two_o day_n he_o refer_v to_o saturn_n choler_n he_o ascribe_v to_o mars_n phlegm_n to_o the_o moon_n blood_n to_o jupiter_n but_o how_o fond_o now_o see_v the_o blood_n putrifi_v without_o any_o pause_n therefore_o his_o circuit_n shall_v by_o their_o rule_n be_v ascribe_v to_o the_o swift_a planet_n not_o to_o jupiter_n which_o if_o you_o consider_v his_o revolution_n be_v the_o slow_a of_o all_o save_a saturn_n again_o if_o that_o be_v true_a that_o the_o operation_n of_o the_o slow_a star_n be_v slow_a proportionable_o to_o their_o slowness_n than_o choler_n shall_v make_v a_o long_a fit_n than_o phlegm_n because_o the_o restitution_n or_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d of_o mars_n be_v much_o slow_a than_o the_o moon_n notwithstanding_o the_o phlegmatic_a fit_n be_v much_o long_a than_o the_o fit_a of_o choler_n for_o this_o latter_a be_v twelve_o hour_n the_o other_o be_v eighteen_o hour_n long_o hence_o be_v clear_a that_o the_o course_n give_v to_o phlegm_n do_v better_a fit_a blood_n for_o whereas_o it_o resemble_v the_o motion_n of_o the_o sea_n which_o eb_v and_o flow_v scarce_o put_v any_o time_n between_o that_o do_v better_a agree_v to_o blood_n then_o phlegm_n which_o be_v in_o continual_a motion_n as_o the_o sea_n be_v in_o which_o the_o little_a time_n between_o the_o ebb_a and_o flow_v can_v by_o no_o mean_n answer_v to_o the_o sixth_o hour_n respite_n in_o a_o phlegmatic_a ague_n last_o if_o phlegm_n answer_v to_o the_o water_n then_o in_o twentiefoure_n hour_n it_o shall_v make_v two_o period_n of_o motition_n as_o the_o sea_n do_v which_o we_o see_v do_v not_o answer_n neither_o far_o there_o be_v more_o resemblance_n &_o agreement_n between_o the_o earth_n and_o the_o water_n them_z earth_n and_o fire_n in_o respect_n both_o of_o motion_n quality_n and_o place_n and_o because_o they_o be_v as_o aristotle_n say_v symbola_fw-la for_o the_o earth_n be_v cold_a &_o dry_a the_o water_n cold_a and_o moist_a the_o fire_n hot_a &_o dry_a the_o

the_o motion_n of_o choler_n shall_v more_o differ_v from_o phlegm_n then_o from_o melancholy_n if_o the_o humour_n be_v compare_v with_o the_o element_n and_o now_o that_o the_o pope_n intercalate_v
