of_o the_o food_n do_v not_o fail_v to_o excite_v they_o to_o repeat_v the_o same_o song_n or_o word_n and_o to_o understand_v this_o well_o we_o must_v conceive_v that_o brute_n learn_v their_o cry_n from_o other_o of_o their_o kind_n and_o that_o ordinary_o the_o food_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o it_o for_o their_o young_a one_o have_v at_o the_o same_o time_n their_o ear_n strike_v by_o the_o cry_n always_o make_v by_o their_o dam_n at_o the_o presence_n of_o some_o food_n which_o they_o have_v not_o yet_o the_o possession_n of_o and_o their_o eye_n also_o strike_v by_o that_o food_n itself_o it_o must_v come_v to_o pass_v that_o the_o place_n of_o their_o brain_n which_o always_o receive_v those_o two_o agitation_n at_o once_o get_v thence_o in_o time_n such_o a_o impression_n make_v in_o it_o that_o the_o spirit_n take_v their_o course_n from_o that_o place_n to_o the_o throat_n and_o the_o muscle_n serve_v for_o the_o voice_n must_v needs_o dispose_v they_o after_o such_o a_o manner_n as_o answer_v to_o the_o impression_n of_o the_o brain_n cause_v those_o young_a one_o to_o make_v a_o cry_n like_o that_o of_o their_o dam._n but_o when_o they_o be_v bring_v up_o by_o man_n and_o when_o linet_n for_o example_n be_v breed_v in_o a_o cage_n and_o that_o instead_n of_o the_o cry_n of_o their_o dam_n it_o happen_v that_o in_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o food_n certain_a strange_a song_n or_o humane_a word_n strike_v their_o ear_n it_o be_v no_o wonder_n if_o those_o word_n or_o song_n make_v impression_n in_o the_o same_o place_n of_o the_o brain_n whence_o that_o food_n shall_v have_v make_v the_o spirit_n to_o flow_v into_o the_o muscle_n of_o the_o throat_n and_o beak_n to_o cause_v they_o to_o make_v the_o noise_n which_o bird_n make_v at_o the_o presence_n of_o a_o food_n they_o hold_v not_o yet_o be_v cause_n that_o the_o spirit_n be_v otherwise_o direct_v do_v also_o otherwise_o dispose_v the_o muscle_n of_o the_o throat_n tongue_n and_o beak_n of_o those_o young_a bird_n and_o make_v they_o sing_v song_n and_o utter_a word_n instead_o of_o the_o cry_n which_o they_o will_v have_v form_v if_o their_o dam_n have_v breed_v they_o this_o must_v needs_o so_o happen_v and_o even_o those_o song_n or_o word_n may_v then_o be_v call_v their_o natural_a cry_n or_o song_n because_o have_v always_o accompany_v a_o action_n that_o have_v make_v so_o deep_a a_o impression_n on_o their_o brain_n it_o can_v be_v that_o that_o action_n shall_v move_v their_o brain_n and_o the_o spirit_n shall_v not_o also_o flow_v present_o to_o the_o muscle_n which_o serve_v for_o that_o song_n or_o those_o word_n and_o likewise_o if_o they_o have_v be_v put_v in_o a_o certain_a condition_n or_o in_o a_o certain_a place_n to_o make_v they_o learn_v the_o better_a they_o will_v soon_o repeat_v what_o they_o have_v be_v teach_v if_o they_o be_v put_v again_o in_o the_o same_o condition_n and_o place_n than_o in_o any_o other_o it_o be_v easy_a also_o to_o understand_v why_o it_o have_v sometime_o happen_v that_o a_o great_a noise_n as_o that_o of_o a_o trumpet_n have_v at_o one_o blow_v shake_v altogether_o the_o ear_n of_o a_o bird_n have_v make_v so_o strong_a a_o impression_n in_o his_o brain_n that_o have_v strike_v out_o all_o the_o other_o the_o spirit_n have_v no_o more_o diffuse_v themselves_o towards_o his_o throat_n than_o in_o such_o a_o manner_n as_o may_v dispose_v the_o muscle_n of_o the_o larinx_n to_o return_v sound_n altogether_o like_o that_o of_o a_o trumpet_n and_o we_o must_v not_o wonder_v if_o the_o passage_n through_o which_o those_o spirit_n flow_v to_o the_o throat_n be_v more_o difficult_a to_o be_v move_v than_o the_o brain_n to_o be_v shake_v the_o bird_n remain_v sometime_o in_o a_o kind_n of_o silence_n for_o many_o day_n before_o he_o render_v that_o sound_n nor_o also_o if_o that_o silence_n be_v perpetual_a when_o the_o part_n which_o serve_v for_o the_o voice_n be_v not_o capable_a to_o form_v a_o like_a one_o to_o the_o sound_n which_o have_v so_o strong_o move_v the_o brain_n in_o short_a there_o be_v no_o intelligent_a man_n who_o after_o this_o discourse_n see_v not_o why_o a_o animal_n be_v bear_v deaf_a must_v needs_o be_v dumb_a from_o all_o which_o it_o result_v with_o sufficient_a evidence_n to_o a_o consider_v man_n first_o that_o it_o be_v the_o lung_n and_o the_o structure_n of_o the_o windpipe_n the_o mouth_n the_o palate_n the_o tooth_n and_o the_o muscle_n of_o all_o those_o part_n which_o by_o receive_v and_o repel_v or_o in_o diverse_o modify_v the_o air_n be_v the_o cause_n enable_v we_o to_o form_v voice_n and_o to_o articulate_v they_o second_o that_o it_o be_v by_o reason_n of_o the_o communication_n which_o be_v between_o the_o brain_n and_o the_o other_o part_n of_o the_o body_n of_o every_o animal_n that_o it_o be_v diverse_o agitate_a by_o those_o voice_n three_o that_o in_o every_o animal_n capable_a to_o form_v voice_n there_o be_v such_o a_o commerce_n from_o the_o ear_n to_o the_o brain_n and_o from_o the_o brain_n to_o all_o the_o part_n serve_v for_o the_o voice_n that_o the_o same_o voice_n which_o shake_v the_o brain_n by_o the_o intervention_n of_o the_o ear_n dispose_v it_o also_o to_o diffuse_v the_o spirit_n into_o the_o muscle_n of_o those_o part_n which_o spirit_n put_v they_o into_o a_o posture_n answerable_a to_o the_o manner_n in_o which_o that_o voice_n do_v strike_v the_o brain_n make_v they_o form_v a_o voice_n altogether_o like_o it_o if_o some_o press_a necessity_n of_o the_o animal_n divert_v not_o the_o course_n of_o the_o spirit_n to_o another_o place_n which_o be_v once_o well_o understand_v it_o will_v be_v easy_a to_o know_v a_o thousand_o thing_n which_o common_o enough_o be_v not_o know_v touch_v the_o different_a effect_n of_o the_o cry_n and_o noise_n of_o animal_n which_o i_o mean_v not_o to_o explain_v more_o particular_o because_o that_o all_o those_o who_o have_v attention_n enough_o to_o conceive_v the_o few_o principle_n which_o i_o have_v lay_v down_o will_v from_o thence_o draw_v all_o what_o be_v necessary_a to_o explain_v it_o and_o because_o those_o that_o be_v not_o capable_a of_o such_o a_o attention_n will_v not_o conceive_v what_o i_o can_v say_v of_o it_o even_o in_o a_o more_o particular_a discourse_n i_o shall_v only_o stay_v to_o consider_v here_o that_o according_a to_o these_o principle_n brute_n need_v no_o soul_n to_o cry_v or_o to_o be_v move_v by_o cry_n for_o if_o they_o be_v touch_v in_o any_o place_n or_o their_o nerve_n strike_v with_o force_n enough_o to_o cause_v a_o great_a shake_n in_o their_o brain_n it_o be_v sufficient_o easy_a to_o conceive_v that_o that_o action_n agitate_v the_o spirit_n these_o must_v flow_v much_o more_o swift_o into_o the_o muscle_n and_o by_o this_o mean_v the_o swiftness_n of_o those_o that_o run_v incessant_o to_o the_o heart_n augment_v must_v render_v the_o pulse_n thereof_o more_o precipitate_a which_o make_v it_o propel_v so_o great_a a_o plenty_n of_o blood_n into_o the_o artery_n of_o the_o lung_n that_o this_o artery_n be_v more_o distend_v than_o ordinary_o press_v the_o windpipe_n and_o make_v the_o air_n to_o be_v drive_v out_o of_o the_o lung_n with_o a_o impetuosity_n answerable_a to_o that_o whereby_o the_o blood_n enter_v there_o the_o second_o effect_n of_o this_o quick_a agitation_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v that_o at_o the_o same_o time_n they_o flow_v to_o the_o heart_n some_o of_o they_o diffuse_v themselves_o also_o to_o all_o the_o other_o muscle_n that_o be_v in_o a_o continual_a action_n as_o those_o of_o the_o breast_n because_o whereas_o the_o passage_n through_o which_o the_o spirit_n be_v convey_v in_o those_o sort_n of_o muscle_n be_v always_o open_a by_o reason_n of_o the_o necessity_n of_o their_o continual_a action_n the_o spirit_n can_v receive_v a_o new_a motion_n without_o present_o communicate_v it_o to_o those_o muscle_n which_o cause_v those_o of_o the_o diaphragme_n and_o breast_n press_v the_o breast_n in_o such_o a_o manner_n as_o make_v the_o air_n issue_n out_o with_o unusual_a force_n and_o see_v the_o muscle_n of_o the_o larinx_n be_v also_o strong_o agitate_a the_o air_n thence_o get_v out_o be_v beat_v in_o a_o manner_n which_o hold_v somewhat_o of_o that_o agitation_n thus_o it_o may_v be_v conceive_v from_o the_o sole_a disposition_n of_o the_o body_n why_o a_o brute_n cry_v and_o to_o know_v how_o it_o may_v be_v move_v by_o cry_n without_o have_v a_o soul_n you_o need_v but_o remember_v the_o communion_n there_o be_v between_o the_o brain_n the_o part_n serve_v for_o the_o voice_n and_o all_o the_o part_n of_o the_o body_n for_o if_o according_a to_o the_o difference_n of_o cry_n the_o brain_n be_v diverse_o move_v
