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

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

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

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

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
