of_o the_o muscle_n of_o the_o gut_n stomach_n tendon_n membrane_n and_o the_o like_a fibrose_n part_n natural_o resist_v distraction_n and_o have_v a_o power_n of_o contract_v themselves_o after_o extension_n yea_o more_o we_o see_v that_o all_o fibres_fw-fr even_o in_o their_o natural_a posture_n be_v somewhat_o upon_o the_o stretch_n for_o when_o they_o be_v cut_v they_o instant_o shorten_v

quiet_a suffer_v neither_o contraction_n nor_o distraction_n of_o its_o part_n now_o if_o all_o fibre_n even_o in_o their_o natural_a state_n suffer_v some_o degree_n of_o stretch_v certain_o when_o the_o artery_n be_v replenish_v with_o blood_n their_o cavity_n must_v be_v dilate_v and_o in_o the_o dilatation_n of_o their_o cavity_n their_o transverse_n or_o circular_a fibre_n must_v suffer_v much_o more_o stretch_v than_o they_o do_v before_o and_o because_o to_o this_o dilatation_n of_o the_o artery_n a_o constriction_n immediate_o succeed_v which_o be_v not_o possible_a to_o be_v effect_v without_o a_o abbreviation_n of_o the_o circular_a fibres_fw-fr of_o the_o artery_n and_o because_o that_o abbreviation_n or_o contraction_n be_v connatural_a to_o the_o fibre_n themselves_o therefore_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o the_o artery_n after_o that_o violent_a stretch_v cause_v by_o their_o repletion_n and_o turgency_n shall_v not_o exercise_v by_o natural_a necessity_n that_o mechanic_a power_n they_o have_v of_o contract_v themselves_o by_o virtue_n of_o their_o circular_a fibre_n gird_v they_o inward_a and_o equal_o impossible_a that_o the_o artery_n shall_v so_o contract_v themselves_o without_o expel_v at_o the_o same_o time_n out_o of_o their_o orifice_n the_o blood_n that_o dilate_a they_o whence_o it_o appear_v beyond_o dispute_n that_o the_o spontaneous_a constriction_n of_o the_o distend_v artery_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o expulsion_n of_o the_o blood_n out_o of_o they_o into_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o part_n contrary_a to_o their_o opinion_n who_o ascribe_v this_o expulsion_n only_o to_o the_o systole_n of_o the_o heart_n ¶_o ⸪_o the_o natural_a method_n of_o acquire_a science_n you_o know_v be_v to_o begin_v from_o thing_n more_o know_v and_o then_o to_o advance_v to_o thing_n less_o know_v to_o proceed_v from_o effect_n to_o their_o cause_n see_v therefore_o that_o we_o be_v now_o certain_a that_o the_o blood_n in_o animal_n be_v carry_v by_o a_o perpetual_a circular_a motion_n through_o all_o part_n of_o the_o body_n our_o next_o business_n be_v to_o inquire_v what_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o this_o admirable_a motion_n as_o well_o the_o final_a as_o the_o efficient_a i_o begin_v from_o the_o final_a it_o be_v a_o question_n worthy_a our_o consideration_n why_o or_o to_o what_o end_n nature_n all_o who_o counsel_n and_o action_n be_v ordain_v by_o a_o infinite_a wisdom_n have_v institute_v this_o rapid_a circulation_n of_o the_o blood_n constant_a it_o be_v even_o from_o common_a experience_n that_o whenever_o the_o blood_n be_v quiet_a or_o cease_v from_o motion_n whether_o within_o or_o without_o the_o body_n of_o a_o animal_n the_o red_a and_o grumose_n part_v of_o it_o soon_o curdle_n and_o be_v separate_v from_o the_o serose_n or_o albumen_n and_o so_o the_o constitution_n or_o contexture_n of_o it_o be_v dissolve_v and_o corrupt_v whereas_o on_o the_o contrary_a while_o the_o blood_n continue_v in_o perpetual_a motion_n within_o its_o vessel_n in_o the_o body_n of_o a_o live_a animal_n so_o long_o the_o ordinate_a mixture_n of_o its_o element_n due_a temper_n and_o vital_a constitution_n of_o it_o be_v conserve_v for_o mechanical_a reason_n in_o our_o ensue_a discourse_n to_o be_v explain_v it_o seem_v then_o that_o such_o a_o mixture_n of_o the_o constituent_a part_n of_o the_o blood_n upon_o which_o the_o vitality_n of_o it_o do_v necessary_o depend_v can_v be_v otherwise_o conserve_v than_o by_o a_o continual_a agitation_n and_o concussion_n make_v in_o the_o vessel_n first_o by_o the_o heart_n with_o strong_a force_n impel_v the_o blood_n through_o the_o artery_n then_o that_o impulsive_a force_n languish_v by_o filtration_n in_o the_o space_n intermediate_v betwixt_o the_o artery_n and_o vein_n next_o in_o the_o vein_n by_o the_o constriction_n of_o their_o circular_a fibre_n by_o the_o compression_n of_o the_o muscle_n and_o the_o viscera_n and_o the_o inspire_a air_n all_o which_o compression_n will_v not_o suffice_v be_v not_o valve_n place_v commodious_o within_o the_o vein_n by_o which_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o blood_n be_v accelerate_a and_o a_o far_a conquassation_n of_o it_o make_v and_o here_o we_o meet_v with_o a_o fair_a occasion_n to_o reflect_v upon_o the_o mutual_a anastomôse_n of_o the_o capillary_a vein_n and_o the_o infrequent_a distribution_n of_o valve_n in_o one_o and_o the_o same_o vein_n for_o both_o these_o contribute_v also_o their_o proportion_n towards_o the_o end_n now_o under_o our_o disquisition_n for_o the_o texture_n of_o the_o vein_n be_v indeed_o lax_n and_o soft_a yet_o such_o as_o may_v by_o virtue_n of_o their_o circular_a fibre_n be_v constringe_v and_o contract_v hence_o it_o be_v that_o by_o the_o blood_n regurgitate_v in_o those_o tract_n of_o the_o vein_n that_o have_v no_o valve_n by_o the_o great_a quantity_n and_o force_n of_o its_o regurgitation_n or_o recoil_n the_o low_a part_n of_o the_o vein_n be_v much_o dilate_v and_o on_o the_o contrary_a the_o high_a part_n be_v contract_v so_o that_o the_o blood_n be_v by_o this_o reflux_n though_o inobservable_a agitate_a and_o conquassated_a may_v revive_v its_o due_a commistion_n and_o conserve_v its_o vital_a constitution_n it_o appear_v then_o the_o defect_n of_o valve_n also_o have_v its_o use_n within_o the_o cavity_n of_o the_o artery_n as_o i_o say_v before_o no_o valve_n be_v place_v because_o the_o grand_a force_n by_o which_o the_o blood_n be_v impel_v through_o they_o be_v more_o than_o sufficient_a to_o conquassate_fw-it and_o commix_v it_o by_o wedge_v in_o as_o it_o be_v the_o more_o fluid_a albugineous_a particle_n among_o the_o red_a grumose_n particle_n that_o from_o both_o sort_n commix_v per_fw-la minimas_fw-la moleculas_fw-la as_o they_o say_v and_o yet_o mutual_o reluctant_a the_o vital_a mication_n or_o oscillatory_n intestine_a motion_n of_o the_o blood_n may_v be_v continue_v so_o then_o here_o be_v neither_o need_n of_o nor_o place_n for_o a_o fermentation_n now_o from_o the_o consideration_n of_o these_o thing_n premise_v i_o conclude_v that_o the_o circulation_n of_o the_o blood_n be_v institute_v for_o the_o conservation_n of_o its_o requisite_a temper_n and_o vital_a constitution_n which_o be_v to_o be_v inquire_v and_o which_o lead_v we_o to_o the_o admirable_a effect_n and_o benefit_n arise_v to_o the_o animal_n oeconomy_n from_o the_o same_o velocity_n of_o the_o circulation_n of_o the_o blood_n which_o be_v certain_o so_o great_a that_o the_o whole_a mass_n of_o blood_n run_v its_o circular_a race_n in_o the_o twenty_o part_n of_o a_o hour_n or_o thereabouts_o even_o in_o a_o sedentary_a and_o sedate_v man_n as_o have_v by_o many_o be_v demonstrate_v from_o the_o quantity_n of_o blood_n common_o contain_v in_o the_o body_n from_o the_o number_n of_o pulse_n make_v in_o a_o hour_n and_o from_o the_o quantity_n of_o blood_n express_v by_o every_o pulse_n of_o the_o heart_n and_o we_o have_v already_o see_v what_o advantage_n redound_v to_o the_o blood_n itself_o from_o this_o velocity_n our_o curiosity_n spur_v we_o on_o to_o inquire_v also_o what_o other_o scope_n or_o end_n nature_n may_v probable_o be_v conceive_v to_o have_v propose_v to_o herself_o when_o she_o institute_v this_o so_o rapid_a motion_n or_o what_o emolument_n and_o benefit_n from_o thence_o redound_v to_o the_o oeconomy_n of_o the_o whole_a body_n of_o these_o the_o first_o seem_v to_o be_v this_o that_o in_o every_o pulsation_n of_o the_o heart_n a_o great_a quantity_n of_o blood_n be_v effuse_v and_o protrude_v out_o of_o the_o capillary_a artery_n into_o the_o habit_n of_o the_o part_n for_o their_o refocillation_n by_o influent_a life_n of_o which_o i_o have_v former_o discourse_v copiose_o in_o this_o place_n for_o by_o how_o much_o swift_a the_o motion_n of_o any_o liquor_n or_o other_o fluid_a through_o a_o pipe_n or_o
