eat_v large_a supper_n their_o sleep_n be_v unquiet_o and_o interrupt_v so_o that_o the_o great_a part_n of_o they_o be_v force_v to_o eat_v but_o moderate_o and_o some_o to_o abstain_v altogether_o

may_v be_v more_o clear_a we_o must_v give_v some_o satisfaction_n as_o to_o the_o authority_n and_o reason_n bring_v to_o the_o contrary_n and_o first_o to_o the_o authority_n of_o hipp._n celsus_n and_o galen_n we_o oppose_v that_o it_o be_v true_a we_o be_v by_o they_o satisfy_v that_o it_o be_v the_o custom_n of_o the_o ancient_n to_o eat_v little_a at_o dinner_n much_o at_o supper_n nevertheless_o because_o they_o eat_v very_o little_a at_o dinner_n they_o have_v more_o reason_n to_o eat_v large_o at_o supper_n and_o indeed_o that_o meal_n take_v at_o supper_n have_v need_n of_o more_o time_n for_o concoction_n then_o if_o take_v at_o dinner_n but_o in_o our_o time_n when_o dinner_n be_v so_o large_a we_o can_v imitate_v the_o ancient_n at_o supper_n and_o without_o doubt_n the_o ancient_n have_v do_v better_a if_o what_o they_o do_v eat_v at_o supper_n they_o have_v eat_v at_o dinner_n and_o if_o that_o which_o they_o take_v at_o dinner_n they_o have_v take_v at_o
