be_v alike_o be_v join_v to_o these_o the_o natural_a spirit_n be_v make_v when_o the_o more_o pure_a or_o aerial_a part_n of_o nourishment_n turn_v by_o concoction_n into_o thin_a blood_n like_o a_o

you_o may_v best_o know_v the_o nature_n of_o it_o if_o you_o consider_v the_o air_n in_o a_o south_n or_o north_n wind_n the_o windy_a spirit_n in_o we_o be_v like_o the_o south_n wind_n and_o the_o

chap._n ii_o of_o the_o analogy_n or_o proportion_n between_o the_o flatuous_a spirit_n and_o wind_n or_o the_o wind_n in_o man_n and_o in_o the_o earth_n there_o be_v two_o thing_n that_o chief_o blow_v up_o our_o body_n and_o prepare_v they_o for_o disease_n diet_n and_o the_o air_n food_n though_o at_o first_o unlike_o be_v at_o length_n make_v like_o we_o and_o turn_v into_o the_o

blood_n so_o wine_n and_o garlic_n produce_v hot_a blood_n fish_n cheese_n and_o salt_n meat_n gross_a blood_n by_o which_o it_o be_v clear_a that_o not_o only_o the_o spirit_n and_o humour_n by_o which_o we_o be_v preserve_v be_v change_v but_o the_o constitution_n of_o the_o whole_a body_n therefore_o a_o cool_a diet_n prepare_v the_o body_n to_o breed_v wind_n by_o oppress_v the_o native_a heat_n also_o too_o much_o of_o the_o best_a meat_n and_o drink_n such_o as_o burden_n nature_n can_v be_v well_o concoct_v or_o turn_v into_o good_a blood_n but_o many_o crudity_n will_v be_v which_o will_v cause_v obstruction_n and_o rottenness_n or_o corruption_n by_o which_o the_o natural_a heat_n be_v suffocate_v as_o the_o wick_n of_o a_o candle_n by_o too_o much_o grease_n this_o crudity_n and_o abundance_n of_o humour_n be_v gather_v in_o all_o chief_o the_o northern_a inhabitant_n these_o as_o if_o it_o be_v too_o low_a a_o thing_n to_o slay_v with_o a_o sword_n or_o hang_v with_o a_o

leave_v not_o off_o till_o they_o vomit_v what_o they_o take_v in_o or_o be_v ready_a to_o burst_v forget_v the_o say_n that_o gluttony_n and_o drunkenness_n kill_v more_o than_o the_o sword_n when_o too_o much_o food_n be_v take_v it_o cause_v a_o disease_n it_o be_v no_o wonder_n if_o such_o have_v many_o excrement_n and_o wind_n which_o for_o their_o abundance_n be_v not_o easy_o void_v also_o the_o country_n and_o air_n be_v of_o much_o force_n for_o a_o hot_a country_n as_o the_o summer_n inflame_v the_o spirit_n dry_v the_o humour_n and_o increase_v choler_n which_o cause_v most_o acute_a disease_n but_o a_o cold_a and_o moist_a air_n as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o north_n be_v like_o the_o winter_n stupefy_v the_o spirit_n stop_v the_o pore_n and_o burden_n the_o body_n with_o many_o superfluous_a humour_n and_o oppress_v the_o native_a heat_n hence_o the_o concoction_n be_v weaken_v and_o there_o be_v crudity_n and_o fluctuation_n of_o food_n in_o the_o stomach_n distillation_n chronic_a disease_n stone_n worm_n wind_n and_o the_o like_a these_o breed_n in_o man_n the_o little_a world_n as_o in_o the_o great_a unto_o which_o aristotle_n compare_v he_o for_o
