reality_n for_o the_o element_n be_v only_o to_o be_v divide_v by_o reason_n and_o not_o by_o actual_a operation_n d._n what_o difference_n be_v there_o between_o principle_n and_o element_n c._n the_o difference_n be_v twofold_a first_o the_o element_n proceed_v out_o of_o other_o before_o they_o and_o out_o of_o one_o another_o but_o principle_n proceed_v neither_o from_o other_o nor_o from_o themselves_o but_o out_o of_o themselves_o produce_v all_o natural_a thing_n second_o the_o element_n be_v of_o the_o same_o genus_fw-la with_o those_o thing_n of_o which_o they_o be_v element_n but_o principle_n can_v be_v of_o the_o same_o genus_fw-la with_o those_o thing_n of_o which_o they_o be_v principle_n wherefore_o in_o regard_n that_o element_n be_v body_n it_o be_v apparent_a that_o those_o thing_n of_o which_o they_o be_v element_n be_v body_n but_o the_o principle_n of_o body_n be_v incorporeal_a d._n how_o many_o element_n be_v there_o c._n four_o fire_n air_n water_n and_o earth_n which_o frequent_o by_o hypocrates_n be_v call_v hot_a moist_a cold_a and_o dry._n d._n by_o what_o argument_n be_v the_o element_n prove_v to_o be_v four_o c._n chief_o by_o three_o first_o because_o they_o be_v the_o first_o four_o element_n liable_a to_o the_o sense_n of_o feel_v and_o so_o many_o real_a agreement_n of_o tangible_a quality_n next_o because_o the_o four_o element_n concur_v to_o the_o form_n of_o mix_v body_n last_o because_o all_o mix_a body_n be_v dissolve_v back_o into_o the_o four_o element_n d._n i_o will_v have_v thou_o demonstrate_v how_o human_a body_n be_v compose_v of_o these_o four_o element_n c._n it_o be_v the_o general_a assent_n of_o all_o that_o our_o body_n be_v compose_v of_o organic_a member_n in_o the_o first_o place_n then_o those_o organic_a member_n be_v perfect_v out_o of_o a_o composure_n of_o similar_v part_n which_o similar_v part_n deduce_v their_o original_a from_o the_o seed_n and_o maternal_a blood_n both_o proceed_n from_o a_o mixture_n of_o humour_n which_o mixture_n arise_v from_o the_o meat_n and_o drink_v put_v into_o the_o body_n the_o product_n of_o which_o whether_o the_o flesh_n of_o land-creature_n or_o of_o fish_n whether_o fruit-tree_n or_o herb_n and_o flower_n be_v only_o the_o promiscuous_a concourse_n and_o mixture_n of_o the_o element_n see_v then_o our_o nourishment_n proceed_v from_o the_o element_n from_o our_o nourishment_n the_o humour_n from_o the_o humour_n the_o similar_v part_n from_o the_o similar_v part_n the_o organic_a member_n from_o the_o organic_a part_n of_o human_a body_n it_o be_v manifest_a that_o the_o same_o be_v compose_v according_a to_o the_o method_n of_o nature_n out_o of_o the_o four_o element_n moreover_o that_o human_a body_n consist_v of_o those_o first_o element_n be_v plain_a from_o their_o last_o dissolution_n for_o that_o when_o a_o man_n die_v all_o thing_n return_v from_o whence_o they_o come_v thus_o the_o innate_a heat_n dissipate_v and_o fly_v away_o to_o the_o element_n of_o fire_n his_o breath_n return_v partly_o to_o the_o fire_n partly_o to_o the_o air._n the_o flow_a humour_n become_v water_n again_o the_o more_o solid_a thick_a and_o firm_a part_n when_o once_o the_o moisture_n be_v exhaust_v dry_v up_o and_o moulder_v to_o dust_n this_o the_o most_o admire_a hypocrates_n first_o give_v we_o to_o understand_v where_o he_o declare_v that_o when_o man_n expire_v every_o thing_n separate_v to_o its_o proper_a nature_n and_o return_n to_o those_o element_n of_o which_o it_o be_v at_o first_o compose_v the_o moist_a to_o the_o moist_a the_o dry_a to_o the_o dry_a the_o hot_a to_o the_o hot_a and_o cold_a to_o the_o cold._n d._n tell_v we_o more_o plain_o how_o human_a body_n be_v generate_v out_o of_o the_o four_o element_n the_o body_n of_o man_n be_v not_o compose_v of_o the_o body_n of_o the_o element_n alone_o but_o of_o their_o conjoin_v quality_n nor_o these_o neither_o pure_a but_o intermix_v and_o temper_v according_a as_o they_o act_n of_o suffer_v among_o themselves_o d._n repeat_v the_o quality_n of_o the_o several_a element_n c._n fire_n be_v hot_a in_o the_o extreme_a remissly_a dry_a air_n moist_a in_o extremity_n remissly_a hot_a earth_n cold_a in_o the_o extreme_a remissly_a moist_a the_o earth_n dry_a in_o the_o extreme_a remissly_a cold_a so_o that_o the_o first_o four_o quality_n be_v heat_n cold_a moisture_n and_o drought_n of_o which_o the_o element_n be_v the_o first_o subject_n and_o out_o of_o their_o mixture_n and_o temperament_n our_o body_n be_v compose_v which_o while_o the_o mixture_n and_o temperament_n remain_v equal_a and_o just_a be_v in_o perfect_a health_n but_o when_o that_o mixture_n and_o temperament_n fail_v or_o be_v alter_v by_o some_o accident_n the_o body_n become_v distemper_v d._n what_o be_v mixture_n c._n mixture_n be_v the_o union_n of_o alter_a thing_n apt_a to_o be_v mix_v d._n how_o be_v mixture_n make_v either_o according_a to_o the_o quality_n or_o the_o form_n or_o in_o the_o whole_a c._n quality_n be_v alter_v form_n unite_v the_o whole_a element_n mix_v with_o the_o whole_a d._n show_v i_o more_o distinct_o the_o reason_n of_o mixture_n c._n alteration_n precede_v mixture_n or_o rather_o the_o conflict_n of_o contrary_a quality_n precede_v the_o act_n and_o suffer_v of_o the_o touch_n for_o all_o physical_a agent_n act_v by_o the_o touch._n and_o therefore_o all_o element_n that_o concur_v to_o constitute_v a_o mix_a body_n touch_v one_o another_o in_o the_o first_o place_n then_o act_v one_o upon_o another_o by_o their_o repugnancy_n and_o contrariety_n and_o so_o by_o their_o mutual_a act_n and_o suffer_v divide_v themselves_o into_o the_o small_a part_n imaginable_a make_v

mixture_n be_v make_v without_o repugnancy_n but_o substance_n be_v not_o repugnant_a to_o substance_n c._n substance_n be_v not_o repugnant_a to_o substance_n of_o itself_o as_o it_o be_v substance_n but_o in_o respect_n of_o its_o quality_n so_o fire_n in_o its_o whole_a form_n and_o substance_n do_v not_o resist_v fire_n but_o one_o in_o its_o quality_n fire_n be_v hot_a and_o water_n cold_a alteration_n be_v not_o a_o mutation_n or_o change_n of_o form_n but_o quality_n the_o element_n through_o their_o mutual_a contest_v be_v alter_v in_o their_o contest_v be_v alter_v in_o their_o

one_o form_n of_o a_o mix_a body_n arise_v of_o temperament_n d._n what_o be_v a_o temperament_n c._n a_o temperament_n be_v a_o proportion_n of_o the_o four_o chief_a elementary_a quality_n proper_a for_o the_o true_a exercise_n of_o the_o natural_a function_n avicen_n define_v a_o temperament_n to_o be_v a_o quality_n arise_v from_o the_o element_n proportionable_o mix_v galen_n call_v it_o
