our_o surgeon_n at_o this_o very_a day_n that_o they_o may_v effectual_o stop_v they_o frequent_o compress_v the_o vein_n with_o their_o thumb_n a_o little_a below_o the_o orifice_n and_o so_o they_o

the_o sense_n and_o see_v the_o blood_n be_v stop_v by_o compress_v the_o low_a part_n of_o the_o vein_n it_o be_v true_o manifest_a that_o the_o blood_n ascend_v from_o the_o low_a part_n but_o in_o case_n it_o shall_v happen_v not_o in_o blood-letting_a but_o by_o some_o other_o wherefore_o mischance_n that_o a_o vein_n shall_v be_v so_o wound_v that_o the_o blood_n can_v not_o be_v stop_v the_o vein_n be_v cut_v asunder_o in_o the_o midst_n whereupon_o the_o vein_n be_v no_o long_o strerch_v out_o as_o before_o the_o part_n cut_v asunder_o be_v draw_v upward_o and_o downward_o into_o the_o

the_o more_o easy_o through_o the_o neighbour_a vein_n which_o be_v extend_v and_o open_a the_o former_a be_v shut_v up_o and_o therefore_o for_o the_o very_a same_o cause_n a_o small_a artery_n be_v

blood-letting_a do_v either_o prove_v the_o circular_a motion_n of_o the_o blood_n or_o at_o least_o be_v not_o against_o the_o same_o but_o see_v other_o thing_n be_v object_v against_o we_o we_o must_v answer_v liver_n they_o also_o and_o first_o whereas_o they_o prove_v that_o the_o blood_n come_v through_o the_o vein_n not_o out_o of_o the_o artery_n but_o from_o the_o liver_n because_o some_o part_n receive_v blood_n and_o have_v tumour_n arise_v from_o the_o afflux_n of_o the_o blood_n which_o part_n have_v no_o artery_n among_o which_o they_o reckon_v the_o pleura_fw-la but_o it_o do_v not_o follow_v if_o the_o part_n have_v not_o artery_n that_o their_o vein_n do_v not_o receive_v their_o blood_n from_o the_o artery_n but_o from_o the_o liver_n for_o as_o we_o say_v the_o blood_n out_o of_o the_o mesenterick_n and_o celiack_n artery_n do_v not_o enter_v the_o mesenterick_n and_o splenick_n vein_n through_o which_o it_o be_v carry_v to_o the_o liver_n even_o so_o other_o vein_n may_v receive_v blood_n from_o the_o artery_n which_o they_o may_v carry_v into_o a_o part_n more_o remote_a from_o artery_n howbeit_o there_o be_v no_o part_n of_o the_o body_n of_o any_o bulk_n wherein_o the_o anatomist_n do_v not_o right_o acknowledge_v artery_n to_o be_v and_o infinite_a artery_n do_v not_o as_o yet_o lie_v conceal_v from_o their_o knowledge_n because_o the_o small_a artery_n disperse_v through_o the_o flesh_n have_v only_o one_o coat_n as_o the_o vein_n have_v yea_o and_o in_o the_o liver_n itself_o there_o be_v so_o many_o branch_n of_o the_o arteria_fw-la celiaca_fw-la as_o there_o be_v branch_n of_o the_o vena_fw-la porta_n and_o as_o many_o branch_n also_o there_o be_v of_o the_o ductus_fw-la cholidocus_fw-la all_o which_o have_v be_v by_o anatomist_n hitherto_o reckon_v for_o branch_n of_o vena_fw-la porta_n because_o those_o three_o kind_n of_o vessel_n be_v in_o the_o liver_n enclose_v in_o a_o common_a coat_n at_o lest_o no_o man_n will_v ever_o deny_v the_o artery_n of_o the_o pleura_fw-la that_o have_v once_o see_v the_o chest_n of_o a_o live_a creature_n open_v for_o whilst_o the_o chest_n be_v dissect_v blood_n be_v wont_a to_o leap_v out_o of_o the_o artery_n of_o the_o pleura_fw-la moreover_o they_o prove_v that_o blood_n do_v not_o come_v out_o of_o the_o artery_n into_o the_o vein_n because_o the_o arm_n be_v so_o bind_v that_o the_o artery_n may_v still_o pulse_n the_o arm_n be_v not_o immeasurable_o swell_v below_o the_o ligature_n whereas_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v so_o swell_v and_o distend_v if_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o ligature_n nothing_o can_v flow_v back_o into_o the_o great_a vein_n and_o at_o every_o pulse_n the_o artery_n drive_v somewhat_o into_o the_o low_a vein_n at_o every_o contraction_n of_o which_o contraction_n there_o be_v more_o than_o three_o thousand_o perform_v every_o hour_n nevertheless_o it_o may_v come_v to_o pass_v that_o the_o arm_n be_v not_o extend_v to_o such_o a_o bulk_n when_o it_o be_v bind_v because_o the_o vein_n be_v not_o total_o shut_v up_o and_o the_o blood_n may_v by_o some_o creep_a hole_n pass_v under_o the_o ligature_n and_o go_v into_o the_o great_a vein_n as_o we_o see_v a_o part_n be_v close_o bind_v to_o repel_v humour_n for_o divers_a month_n or_o year_n be_v nevertheless_o nourish_v by_o the_o blood_n which_o flow_v through_o also_o it_o may_v come_v to_o pass_v that_o so_o little_a blood_n be_v force_v in_o through_o the_o artery_n of_o the_o bind_v arm_n as_o that_o it_o can_v distend_v or_o swell_v the_o same_o under_o a_o long_a time_n for_o that_o blood_n only_o be_v force_v in_o the_o vein_n be_v stretch_v with_o fullness_n which_o be_v in_o the_o artery_n from_o the_o ligature_n unto_o the_o hand_n for_o that_o which_o be_v above_o the_o ligature_n can_v enter_v more_o easy_o into_o the_o vein_n by_o open_a anastomosis_n yea_o it_o may_v come_v to_o pass_v when_o the_o vein_n be_v distend_v do_v no_o long_o permit_v the_o blood_n to_o be_v force_v into_o they_o by_o the_o artery_n that_o the_o pulse_n of_o the_o artery_n be_v stop_v or_o that_o the_o blood_n regurgitate_v upward_o and_o enter_v the_o
