superficies_n of_o this_o powder_n from_o whence_o the_o purge_a faculty_n proceed_v as_o be_v plain_o show_v in_o the_o end_n of_o the_o sixth_o chapter_n be_v cold_a therefore_o ꝑ_n conclude_v that_o it_o can_v draw_v any_o humour_n into_o the_o stomach_n my_o proposition_n be_v prove_v before_o by_o the_o natural_a effect_n of_o heat_n and_o cold_a and_o by_o the_o authority_n of_o galen_n before_o cite_v in_o his_o book_n entitle_v quos_fw-la purgere_fw-la oportete_fw-la and_o in_o his_o five_o book_n de_fw-fr simp_n medi._n facul_fw-la the_o sixtéene_a chapter_n my_o assumption_n i_o prove_v thus_o as_o be_v the_o effect_n so_o be_v the_o cause_n but_o the_o effect_n which_o mercury_n work_v be_v cold_a and_o therefore_o mercury_n itself_o be_v cold_a my_o proposition_n in_o the_o philosopher_n maxim_n the_o assumption_n be_v prove_v by_o instance_n in_o the_o disease_n call_v the_o palsy_n and_o relaxation_n of_o the_o sinew_n which_o we_o see_v daily_o happen_v to_o those_o that_o deal_v much_o with_o quicksilver_n as_o our_o gilder_n with_o rich_a gold_n be_v cause_v by_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o quicksilver_n now_o that_o the_o palsy_n be_v a_o cold_a disease_n galen_n witness_v in_o his_o four_o book_n de_fw-fr causis_fw-la pulsuum_fw-la my_o second_o instance_n be_v take_v from_o another_o effect_n of_o mercury_n which_o be_v this_o when_o any_o have_v take_v a_o great_a quantity_n as_o much_o as_o will_v poison_v a_o body_n during_o all_o the_o time_n of_o the_o work_n of_o it_o the_o party_n shall_v never_o thirst_v which_o if_o it_o be_v hot_a it_o will_v inflame_v the_o blood_n and_o vital_a spirit_n and_o cause_v intolerable_a thirst_n as_o it_o happen_v after_o the_o take_n of_o all_o hot_a poison_n for_o the_o party_n will_v thirst_v even_o to_o the_o death_n which_o be_v prove_v by_o a_o example_n cite_v of_o conciliator_n in_o his_o book_n de_fw-fr venenis_fw-la of_o a_o apothecary_n who_o thirst_v in_o the_o extreme_a heat_n of_o summer_n in_o the_o night_n time_n take_v a_o pitchard_n of_o quicksilver_n in_o stead_n of_o some_o drink_n or_o other_o and_o drink_v of_o it_o forthwith_o it_o cool_v his_o thirst_n congeal_v the_o blood_n and_o destroy_v the_o vital_a spirit_n and_o be_v find_v dead_a in_o his_o bed_n in_o the_o morning_n his_o body_n by_o the_o advice_n of_o a_o physician_n be_v cut_v up_o and_o there_o be_v find_v in_o his_o stomach_n one_o pound_n of_o quicksilver_n the_o blood_n in_o his_o heart_n be_v congeal_v by_o which_o the_o same_o author_n conclude_v that_o it_o be_v of_o a_o cold_a quality_n to_o these_o instance_n may_v be_v add_v that_o it_o be_v in_o the_o form_n of_o water_n altogether_o without_o taste_n not_o bitter_a sharp_a sour_a salt_n sweet_a or_o have_v any_o stiplicitie_n or_o

investigate_v the_o nature_n of_o it_o whatsoever_o paracelsus_n through_o vain_a subtlety_n and_o trifle_a argument_n go_v about_o to_o persuade_v the_o world_n that_o it_o be_v of_o a_o hot_a quality_n then_o since_o the_o superficial_a purge_a quality_n of_o this_o powder_n be_v cold_a it_o manifest_o prove_v that_o it_o do_v not_o purge_v by_o attraction_n the_o second_o reason_n which_o prove_v that_o this_o powder_n do_v not_o purge_v by_o attraction_n be_v take_v from_o a_o sure_a demonstration_n by_o certain_a experience_n which_o be_v this_o the_o first_o time_n that_o it_o be_v administer_v unto_o any_o body_n it_o will_v work_v his_o effect_n due_o as_o it_o ought_v to_o do_v evacuate_v the_o humour_n but_o if_o it_o be_v administer_v again_o the_o next_o day_n it_o will_v then_o very_a little_a work_n by_o siege_n or_o vomit_v or_o nothing_o at_o all_o by_o reason_n the_o first_o day_n it_o do_v evacuate_v all_o the_o humour_n within_o the_o stomach_n and_o bowel_n which_o it_o then_o meet_v withal_o now_o all_o other_o purge_v attractive_a be_v take_v again_o the_o second_o day_n will_v work_v afresh_o because_o they_o still_o draw_v mo_z humour_n out_o of_o the_o vein_n and_o fleshy_a part_n of_o the_o body_n and_o if_o there_o be_v none_o to_o draw_v they_o dissolve_v and_o melt_v the_o flesh_n itself_o draw_v blood_n out_o of_o the_o vein_n &_o spirit_n out_o of_o the_o artery_n and_o so_o by_o consequent_a life_n itself_o which_o vice_n will_v also_o be_v incident_a to_o this_o powder_n of_o gold_n if_o it_o do_v work_v any_o whit_n by_o attraction_n which_o see_v it_o do_v not_o it_o can_v hold_v with_o the_o natural_a possibility_n of_o this_o powder_n to_o produce_v any_o such_o fatal_a event_n and_o as_o it_o work_v not_o attrahendo_n so_o neither_o do_v it_o work_n comprimendo_fw-la because_o it_o leave_v the_o body_n after_o always_o soluble_a sometime_o a_o week_n a_o month_n yea_o a_o quarter_n of_o a_o year_n by_o which_o may_v be_v note_v the_o excellency_n and_o pre-eminence_n that_o this_o purge_n have_v above_o all_o other_o purge_v medicine_n in_o the_o world_n for_o this_o must_v needs_o be_v grant_v which_o galen_n himself_o confess_v in_o his_o book_n entitle_v quos_fw-la purgare_fw-la oportet_fw-la that_o all_o purge_a medicine_n which_o work_v by_o attraction_n be_v very_o offensive_a to_o the_o stomach_n and_o noisome_a to_o all_o part_n of_o the_o body_n diverse_a symptom_n and_o great_a inconvenience_n follow_v they_o by_o reason_n when_o there_o be_v such_o a_o sudden_a violent_a and_o unnatural_a pull_n and_o rive_v the_o humour_n from_o blood_n wherein_o life_n consist_v nature_n can_v hardly_o endure_v this_o separation_n be_v before_o so_o firm_o unite_v together_o without_o her_o great_a detriment_n and_o loss_n of_o many_o spirit_n the_o inconvenience_n and_o vice_n whereof_o i_o will_v show_v at_o large_a in_o the_o sixth_o chapter_n now_o this_o purge_n of_o gold_n see_v it_o work_v not_o by_o attraction_n can_v be_v scandalize_v with_o any_o of_o those_o blot_n neither_o can_v any_o such_o symptom_n follow_v it_o but_o happy_o some_o may_v here_o object_v that_o if_o it_o only_o purge_v leniendo_fw-la and_o lubricando_fw-la and_o not_o attrahendo_n how_o can_v it_o remove_v and_o purge_v stubborn_a and_o rebellious_a humour_n out_o of_o the_o vein_n and_o solid_a remote_a part_n of_o the_o body_n and_o then_o not_o be_v able_a to_o remove_v they_o how_o can_v it_o be_v good_a almost_o for_o any_o disease_n and_o to_o conclude_v it_o be_v as_o good_a to_o take_v a_o glister_n or_o eat_v a_o little_a cassia_n manna_n or_o stew_v prune_n as_o to_o take_v this_o golden_a purge_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o though_o it_o purge_v not_o the_o humour_n within_o the_o vein_n and_o fleshy_a part_n by_o attraction_n yet_o it_o do_v either_o help_n nature_n to_o digest_v they_o or_o expel_v they_o by_o sweat_n and_o urine_n which_o be_v a_o direct_a course_n according_a to_o nature_n own_o proceed_n so_o you_o see_v that_o it_o do_v work_v by_o vomit_n siege_n sweat_n and_o urine_n according_a as_o nature_n be_v burden_v and_o overlade_v for_o if_o the_o stomach_n be_v oppress_v with_o light_a choler_n water_n and_o phlegm_n it_o purge_v they_o by_o vomit_n if_o the_o intestine_n and_o low_a part_n be_v overcharge_v with_o choler_n water_n or_o phlegm_n it_o work_v by_o siege_n if_o either_o stomach_n or_o bowel_n be_v overload_v with_o melancholy_a it_o evacuate_v always_o that_o humour_n by_o siege_n if_o the_o blood_n and_o the_o solid_a part_n of_o the_o body_n be_v oppress_v with_o any_o of_o those_o humour_n it_o dissolve_v they_o and_o open_v their_o passage_n and_o purge_v they_o by_o sweat_n and_o insensible_a expiration_n if_o the_o emulgent_a vein_n or_o reins_n of_o the_o back_n be_v burden_v with_o choler_n phlegm_n or_o melancholy_a or_o have_v any_o obstruction_n it_o open_v the_o passage_n dissolve_v the_o humour_n and_o bring_v they_o out_o by_o urine_n for_o it_o purge_v all_o the_o vicious_a and_o offensive_a humour_n alike_o not_o have_v any_o humour_n destinate_a to_o it_o but_o as_o the_o body_n be_v most_o overcharge_v on_o that_o it_o work_v first_o in_o the_o answer_v this_o objection_n a_o great_a may_v arise_v among_o the_o learned_a and_o that_o be_v this_o whereas_o i_o say_v that_o this_o powder_n of_o gold_n do_v purge_v by_o sweat_n and_o urine_n how_o can_v that_o agree_v with_o natural_a philosophy_n and_o experience_n that_o a_o cold_a quality_n which_o i_o affirm_v before_o this_o powder_n have_v can_v open_v dissolve_v sweat_n and_o expel_v by_o urine_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o though_o the_o outward_a superficial_a quality_n of_o this_o powder_n of_o gold_n be_v cold_a from_o the_o mercurialitie_n yet_o inward_o there_o be_v a_o subtle_a acrious_a heat_n from_o the_o aureitie_n which_o be_v
