in_o the_o hart_n let_v we_o prove_v this_o opinion_n of_o we_o by_o argument_n certeinlie_o this_o must_v be_v do_v wheresoever_o they_o be_v to_o be_v place_v either_o in_o the_o brain_n or_o in_o the_o hart_n or_o in_o the_o liver_n they_o shall_v not_o be_v place_v in_o the_o brain_n since_o there_o the_o action_n and_o power_n which_o be_v repugnant_a to_o these_o affect_n namely_o judgement_n and_o reason_n have_v their_o abide_n but_o one_o and_o the_o selfsame_o power_n bring_v not_o forth_o at_o one_o very_a time_n action_n which_o be_v repugnant_a and_o that_o the_o action_n of_o the_o affect_n and_o those_o of_o judgement_n and_o reason_n be_v one_o repugnant_a to_o another_o even_o medea_n herself_o in_o ovid_n testify_v who_o say_v video_fw-la meliora_fw-la

be_v not_o as_o the_o stoic_n think_v cogitation_n or_o opinion_n since_o these_o action_n consist_v in_o the_o brain_n and_o therefore_o it_o remain_v that_o if_o they_o be_v not_o in_o the_o brain_n they_o must_v be_v place_v either_o in_o the_o hart_n or_o in_o the_o liver_n and_o very_o they_o can_v be_v ascribe_v unto_o the_o liver_n because_o those_o affect_n which_o belong_v thereunto_o can_v be_v govern_v by_o judgement_n and_o reason_n as_o hunger_n thirst_n and_o move_v unto_o procreation_n may_v be_v no_o doubt_n but_o judgement_n or_o reason_n may_v over-rule_v the_o power_n that_o move_v to_o wit_n that_o it_o shall_v not_o eat_v nor_o drink_v nor_o procreate_v child_n but_o it_o can_v let_v that_o it_o shall_v disclose_v itself_o that_o it_o shall_v provoke_v disquiet_v and_o stir_v up_o but_o those_o affect_n which_o follow_v perceive_v or_o knowledge_n may_v be_v stay_v by_o reason_n and_o judgement_n and_o so_o they_o be_v not_o of_o the_o selfsame_o nature_n that_o those_o be_v which_o be_v place_v in_o the_o liver_n wherefore_o they_o shall_v not_o belong_v unto_o that_o part_n of_o the_o body_n but_o unto_o the_o hart_n and_o with_o this_o opinion_n which_o we_o think_v be_v aristotle_n the_o holy_a scripture_n do_v agree_v which_o say_v 30_o deut._n 6_o 5._o mark_n 12_o 30_o thou_o shall_v love_v the_o lord_n thy_o god_n with_o all_o thy_o hart_n with_o all_o thy_o soul_n and_o with_o all_o thy_o strength_n and_o thou_o shall_v fear_v to_o offend_v he_o 36_o but_o we_o must_v note_v hart_n how_o the_o natural_a affect_n do_v belong_v to_o the_o hart_n that_o hunger_n and_o thirst_n be_v sometime_o understand_v for_o the_o defect_n itself_o when_o we_o be_v quite_o empty_a and_o in_o this_o respect_n they_o can_v be_v govern_v by_o judgement_n and_o reason_n nor_o yet_o have_v their_o original_n from_o thence_o but_o that_o grief_n which_o do_v follow_v belong_v to_o the_o hart_n since_o the_o first_o emptiness_n be_v in_o the_o organ_n which_o do_v belong_v unto_o the_o vegetative_a power_n and_o as_o touch_v the_o affect_n also_o which_o follow_v the_o sense_n of_o feel_v there_o must_v be_v two_o thing_n consider_v to_o

of_o the_o hart_n neither_o must_v we_o pass_v over_o this_o that_o the_o hart_n have_v two_o other_o motion_n beside_o affect_n namely_o the_o pulse_n but_o we_o be_v not_o now_o at_o this_o

may_v be_v say_v that_o the_o godhead_n be_v therefore_o join_v unto_o it_o because_o the_o holy_a ghost_n use_v it_o as_o a_o instrument_n to_o our_o salvation_n further_o he_o make_v a_o

which_o thing_n in_o their_o manner_n be_v call_v the_o flesh_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n because_o they_o be_v outward_a sign_n of_o those_o thing_n wherefore_o after_o a_o sort_n we_o may_v be_v

that_o they_o may_v mix_v themselves_o with_o our_o supper_n but_o it_o behoove_v that_o our_o mind_n be_v admonish_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o the_o outward_a sign_n shall_v be_v carry_v
