our_o engine_n seem_v manifest_o for_o a_o pretty_a while_n and_o not_o long_o before_o he_o die_v to_o move_v his_o thorax_n as_o if_o he_o exercise_v respiration_n the_o diligent_a wallaeus_n

discharge_v by_o cough_v and_o i_o remember_v too_o that_o most_o of_o the_o animal_n we_o kill_v in_o our_o engine_n be_v bird_n of_o who_o lung_n harvey_n somewhere_o inform_v we_o that_o he_o

be_v suppose_v to_o have_v be_v kill_v by_o the_o want_n of_o air_n we_o foresee_v another_o argument_n that_o we_o must_v deal_v so_o ingenious_o with_o your_o lordship_n as_o not_o to_o conceal_v you_o very_o well_o know_v that_o beside_o the_o generality_n of_o the_o school_n there_o be_v many_o new_a philosopher_n who_o though_o they_o dissent_v from_o the_o old_a peripatetic_n in_o other_o thing_n do_v as_o they_o deny_v the_o possibility_n of_o a_o vacuum_n and_o hold_v that_o those_o space_n which_o be_v devoid_a of_o air_n and_o other_o grosser_n body_n be_v all_o of_o they_o exact_o replenish_v with_o a_o certain_a etherial_a matter_n so_o thin_a and_o subtle_a that_o it_o can_v free_o permeate_n the_o pore_n of_o the_o compactedst_a and_o close_a body_n and_o even_o of_o glass_n itself_o now_o some_o of_o those_o naturalist_n that_o be_v of_o this_o persuasion_n may_v object_v that_o the_o animal_n that_o die_v in_o our_o receiver_n do_v so_o not_o so_o much_o for_o lack_v of_o air_n as_o by_o reason_n that_o the_o air_n that_o be_v pump_v out_o be_v necessary_o succeed_v by_o a_o etherial_a substance_n which_o consist_v of_o part_n vehement_o agitate_a and_o so_o very_o small_a as_o without_o resistance_n to_o pass_v in_o and_o out_o through_o the_o very_a pore_n of_o glass_n it_o may_v well_o be_v suppose_v that_o a_o considerable_a quantity_n of_o this_o restless_a and_o subtle_a matter_n meet_v together_o in_o the_o receiver_n with_o the_o excessive_a heat_n of_o it_o may_v be_v quick_o able_a to_o destroy_v a_o little_a animal_n or_o at_o least_o make_v the_o air_n too_o intemperate_o hot_a to_o be_v fit_a for_o respiration_n but_o though_o this_o be_v a_o difficulty_n not_o so_o easy_o to_o be_v resolve_v without_o the_o assistance_n of_o our_o engine_n yet_o i_o suppose_v we_o have_v already_o answer_v the_o objection_n by_o our_o 38_o and_o 39_o experiment_n which_o though_o we_o make_v partly_o for_o other_o purpose_n yet_o we_o premise_v they_o only_o to_o clear_v up_o the_o difficulty_n propose_v another_o suspicion_n we_o shall_v have_v entertain_v concern_v the_o death_n of_o our_o animal_n namely_o that_o upon_o the_o sudden_a removal_n of_o the_o wont_a pressure_n of_o the_o ambient_fw-la air_n the_o warm_a blood_n of_o those_o animal_n be_v bring_v to_o a_o effervescence_n or_o ebullition_n or_o at_o least_o so_o vehement_o expanded_a as_o to_o disturb_v the_o circulation_n of_o the_o blood_n and_o so_o disorder_v the_o whole_a oeconomy_n of_o the_o body_n this_o i_o say_v i_o shall_v have_v have_v some_o

not_o now_o dwell_v upon_o matter_n of_o this_o nature_n because_o i_o think_v it_o high_a time_n to_o proceed_v to_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o principal_a subject_n of_o our_o engine_n

i_o shall_v on_o this_o occasion_n subjoin_v a_o memorable_a relation_n that_o i_o have_v meet_v with_o in_o the_o learned_a josephus_n acosta_n who_o tell_v we_o that_o when_o he_o himself_o past_o

natural_a temperature_n of_o air_n to_o which_o our_o learned_a author_n add_v a_o inference_n which_o be_v the_o principal_a thing_n i_o design_v in_o mention_v the_o narrative_a i_o shall_v set_v down_o in_o his_o own_o word_n i_o therefore_o say_v he_o persuade_v myself_o that_o the_o element_n of_o the_o air_n be_v there_o so_o subtle_a and_o delicate_a as_o it_o be_v not_o proportionable_a with_o the_o breathe_n of_o man_n which_o req●●●es_v a_o more_o gross_a and_o temperate_a air_n and_o i_o believe_v it_o be_v the_o cause_n that_o do_v so_o much_o alter_v the_o stomach_n and_o

though_o probable_o far_o from_o the_o surface_n of_o it_o what_o will_v happen_v beyond_o the_o atmosphere_n that_o which_o some_o of_o those_o that_o treat_v of_o the_o height_n of_o mountain_n

what_o have_v be_v new_o recite_v out_o of_o acosta_n if_o we_o have_v sufficient_a reason_n to_o believe_v it_o but_o i_o confess_v i_o be_o very_o diffident_a of_o the_o truth_n of_o it_o partly_o because_o cause_v when_o i_o pass_v the_o alps_o i_o take_v notice_n of_o no_o notable_a change_n betwixt_o the_o consistence_n of_o the_o air_n at_o the_o top_n and_o the_o bottom_n of_o the_o

odds_o high_a than_o olympus_n i_o find_v no_o mention_n of_o any_o such_o difficulty_n of_o breathe_v and_o partly_o also_o because_o the_o same_o author_n tell_v we_o out_o of_o aristotle_n that_o

upon_o his_o own_o knowledge_n that_o olympus_n may_v be_v see_v from_o constantinople_n blanch_v with_o perpetual_a snow_n which_o seem_v to_o argue_v that_o the_o top_n of_o that_o as_o well_o as_o of_o divers_a other_o tall_a hill_n be_v not_o above_o that_o region_n of_o the_o air_n wherein_o meteor_n be_v form_v though_o otherwise_o in_o that_o memorable_a narrative_n which_o david_n fraelichius_n make_v of_o his_o ascent_n to_o the_o top_n of_o the_o prodigious_o high_a 19_o hungarian_a mountain_n carpathus_n he_o tell_v we_o that_o when_o have_v pass_v through_o very_o thick_a

the_o principal_a and_o constant_a use_n of_o respiration_n yet_o methinks_v it_o may_v be_v suspect_v that_o the_o air_n do_v something_o more_o than_o bare_o help_v to_o carry_v off_o what_o be_v
