to_o be_v the_o constant_a cause_n as_o galen_n seem_v to_o grant_v who_o lay_v down_o no_o other_o but_o we_o be_v rather_o force_v to_o confess_v that_o it_o be_v less_o usual_a than_o the_o rest_n nor_o do_v the_o argument_n bring_v against_o galen_n any_o way_n convince_v the_o chief_a whereof_o be_v these_o first_o as_o fernelius_n say_v if_o a_o epilepsy_n come_v from_o plenty_n of_o humour_n it_o will_v come_v most_o in_o the_o sleep_n at_o which_o time_n there_o be_v plenty_n of_o humour_n i_o answer_v that_o the_o humour_n of_o which_o sleep_n be_v beget_v be_v in_o the_o substance_n not_o the_o ventricles_n of_o the_o brain_n and_o therefore_o do_v not_o stir_v up_o the_o expulsive_a faculty_n which_o reside_v most_o in_o the_o ventricles_n second_o fernelius_n say_v

a_o apoplexy_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o weakness_n of_o the_o expulsive_a faculty_n which_o be_v oppress_v by_o many_o humour_n they_o be_v cast_v into_o the_o part_n adjoin_v but_o expulsion_n be_v

that_o a_o epilepsy_n never_o end_v in_o a_o palsy_n for_o we_o have_v see_v a_o palsy_n come_v after_o it_o and_o sometime_o apoplexy_n at_o their_o first_o come_n be_v turn_v into_o convulsion_n before_o there_o be_v a_o perfect_a obstruction_n of_o the_o ventricles_n of_o the_o brain_n and_o also_o many_o epileptic_a man_n die_v by_o a_o apoplexy_n when_o a_o little_a obstruction_n turn_v into_o a_o total_a stop_n three_o against_o galen_n some_o argue_v thus_o as_o a_o complete_a obstruction_n of_o the_o ventricles_n total_o take_v away_o the_o function_n of_o the_o brain_n in_o a_o apoplexy_n so_o a_o incomplete_a obstruction_n will_v only_o diminish_v not_o deprave_v the_o function_n nor_o produce_v such_o convulsive_a motion_n as_o be_v sometime_o more_o violent_a than_o sound_a motion_n i_o answer_v that_o nature_n be_v whole_o oppress_v by_o a_o total_a obstruction_n do_v not_o labour_n for_o expulsion_n but_o she_o have_v strength_n enough_o in_o a_o half_a

only_o of_o humour_n do_v fall_v the_o lung_n be_v stir_v up_o to_o expulsion_n whence_o come_v a_o cough_n the_o sign_n of_o a_o epilepsy_n be_v of_o three_o sort_n either_o they_o be_v such_o as_o
