the_o nature_n of_o sal_fw-la ammoniac_a than_o to_o that_o of_o salt_n vegetable_a or_o mineral_n but_o whether_o these_o saline_a spirit_n of_o animal_n may_v in_o all_o thing_n be_v consistent_a with_o the_o nitro-aereous_a spirit_n assert_v by_o the_o ingenious_a dr._n mayow_o may_v with_o good_a reason_n be_v doubt_v for_o although_o it_o be_v say_v that_o this_o nitro-aereous_a spirit_n do_v in_o pass_v through_o the_o lung_n put_v on_o the_o genius_n of_o animal_n salt_n yet_o it_o remain_v still_o to_o be_v inquire_v why_o nature_n shall_v ordain_v that_o spirit_n to_o be_v fetch_v

find_v it_o doubtful_a and_o proceed_v to_o inquire_v whence_o it_o be_v that_o the_o stomach_n infect_v all_o meat_n and_o drink_n with_o acidity_n this_o requisite_a and_o remarkable_a quality_n seem_v to_o be_v superinduce_v by_o the_o stomach_n upon_o the_o new_o receive_v aliment_n by_o four_o several_a way_n viz._n first_o by_o educe_v and_o separate_v the_o sweet_a and_o benign_a spirit_n of_o the_o aliment_n from_o the_o grosser_n part_n of_o they_o and_o then_o either_o absorb_v they_o into_o its_o venae_fw-la lacteae_fw-la or_o transmit_v they_o by_o the_o pylorus_n into_o the_o gut_n or_o dissolve_v they_o into_o wind_n for_o all_o nutritive_a juice_n whatsoever_o so_o soon_o as_o the_o sweet_a and_o easy_o dissipable_a spirit_n that_o praeserve_v they_o be_v exhale_v grow_v acid_a as_o be_v common_o observe_v even_o in_o milk_n who_o fugitive_a spirit_n be_v for_o the_o most_o part_n draw_v forth_o by_o the_o stomach_n and_o thence_o discharge_v by_o belch_a the_o remain_a part_n soon_o acquire_v to_o itself_o somewhat_o of_o acidity_n but_o the_o truth_n be_v this_o eduction_n of_o spirit_n though_o it_o make_v way_n for_o acidity_n to_o succeed_v do_v not_o yet_o produce_v it_o in_o that_o degree_n which_o we_o frequent_o perceive_v in_o very_o sour_a belching_n and_o therefore_o we_o be_v oblige_v to_o advance_v to_o the_o second_o cause_n which_o consist_v in_o this_o that_o the_o stomach_n turn_v liquor_n sour_a by_o bring_v their_o saline_n principle_n or_o element_n to_o the_o state_n of_o fusion_n for_o this_o saline_n principle_n while_o it_o remain_v fix_v retain_v its_o saltness_n but_o be_v advance_v to_o the_o state_n of_o fusion_n soon_o become_v acid_a and_o that_o so_o much_o the_o more_o fierce_o by_o how_o much_o the_o near_o it_o be_v promote_v to_o volatility_n whence_o it_o be_v that_o meat_n and_o drink_v long_o detain_v in_o the_o stomach_n be_v observe_v to_o acquire_v vehement_a acidity_n so_o likewise_o when_o any_o of_o the_o glandule_n that_o serve_v either_o to_o secretion_n or_o to_o reduction_n have_v by_o reason_n of_o their_o obstruction_n long_o detain_v in_o they_o the_o humour_n that_o remain_v to_o be_v carry_v off_o after_o the_o distribution_n of_o the_o succus_fw-la nutritius_fw-la they_o cause_v they_o by_o that_o mean_n to_o grow_v more_o and_o more_o acid_a by_o degree_n to_o the_o no_o small_a detriment_n of_o health_n of_o this_o we_o have_v a_o remarkable_a example_n in_o sharp_a and_o acid_a catarrh_n which_o seem_v to_o owe_v their_o origin_n to_o the_o recrement_n of_o the_o brain_n and_o nerve_n long_o than_o be_v fit_a retain_v in_o the_o gland_n destine_v to_o their_o secretion_n and_o exportation_n and_o by_o reason_n of_o their_o stagnation_n grow_v acid_a
