who_o be_v possess_v of_o this_o temperature_n we_o need_v prescribe_v no_o diet_n what_o he_o shall_v eat_v and_o drink_v for_o he_o never_o exceed_v the_o quantity_n and_o measure_n which_o physic_n

sometime_o cold_a now_o moist_a then_o dry_a but_o the_o cold_a and_o moist_a grow_v to_o predominat_fw-la the_o liver_n wherein_o the_o faculty_n of_o concupiscence_n reside_v have_v for_o his_o

impossible_a to_o hold_v the_o same_o there_o one_o moment_n without_o burn_v and_o albeit_o sometime_o we_o term_v it_o cold_a yet_o we_o may_v not_o conceive_v that_o the_o same_o do_v predominate_a for_o this_o be_v a_o case_n impossible_a but_o that_o the_o same_o consist_v not_o in_o such_o degree_n of_o heat_n as_o to_o his_o operation_n be_v behooveful_a in_o the_o cod_n where_o the_o

for_o the_o generative_a virtue_n be_v want_v hereon_o we_o plain_o infer_v that_o if_o a_o man_n be_v well_o compound_v and_o instrumentalize_v it_o behoove_v of_o force_n that_o he_o have_v excessive_a heat_n in_o his_o heart_n for_o otherwise_o the_o wrathful_a faculty_n will_v grow_v very_o remiss_a and_o if_o the_o liver_n be_v not_o exceed_v hot_a it_o can_v digest_v the_o meat_n nor_o make_v blood_n for_o nourishment_n and_o if_o the_o cod_n have_v not_o more_o heat_n than_o cold_a a_o man_n will_v prove_v impotent_a and_o without_o power_n of_o beget_v wherefore_o these_o

great_a a_o hability_n as_o appertain_v to_o learning_n hereof_o be_v see_v very_o plain_a experience_n for_o we_o behold_v a_o great_a number_n of_o scholar_n enter_v the_o course_n of_o whatsoever_o science_n and_o be_v the_o teacher_n very_o good_a or_o very_a bad_a final_o every_o day_n some_o prove_v of_o great_a skill_n some_o of_o mean_a and_o some_o in_o their_o whole_a course_n have_v do_v

by_o see_v that_o those_o who_o be_v untoward_a for_o one_o science_n be_v very_o apt_a to_o another_o and_z the_o toward_z in_o one_o sort_n of_o learning_n pass_v to_o another_o sort_n can_v understand_v nothing_o but_o myself_o be_o at_o least_o a_o good_a witness_n in_o this_o truth_n for_o there_o be_v three_o companion_n of_o we_o who_o enter_v together_o to_o study_v the_o latin_a

those_o who_o can_v not_o learn_v grammar_n prove_v in_o that_o be_v a_o principal_a eagle_n and_o the_o other_o two_o in_o the_o whole_a never_o learn_v one_o ready_a point_n then_o all_o three_o come_v to_o hear_v astrology_n it_o be_v a_o matter_n worthy_a of_o consideration_n that_o he_o who_o can_v no_o skill_n of_o latin_a or_o logic_n in_o few_o day_n know_v more_o in_o astrology_n than_o his_o master_n that_o teach_v they_o and_o the_o rest_n can_v never_o learn_v it_o i_o then_o marvel_v hereat_o begin_v forth_o with_o to_o make_v discourse_n and_o play_v the_o philosopher_n hereon_o and_o so_o i_o find_v that_o every_o science_n require_v a_o special_a and_o particular_a wit_n which_o reave_v from_o that_o be_v little_a worth_n in_o other_o sort_n of_o learning_n and_o if_o this_o be_v true_a as_o very_o it_o be_v and_o we_o will_v so_o prove_v it_o hereafter_o he_o that_o at_o this_o day_n shall_v enter_v into_o the_o school_n of_o our_o time_n make_v proof_n and_o

for_o learning_n but_o since_o this_o can_v be_v bring_v about_o nor_o remedy_v it_o behoove_v to_o stay_v no_o long_o hereon_o but_o to_o pass_v forward_o it_o can_v be_v deny_v but_o that_o as_o i_o have_v say_v there_o be_v wit_n find_v capable_a of_o one_o science_n which_o be_v untoward_a for_o another_o and_o therefore_o it_o behoove_v before_o the_o child_n be_v set_v to_o study_v to_o

no_o less_o requisite_a than_o be_v this_o of_o towardliness_n for_o hypocrates_n say_v that_o man_n wit_n hold_v the_o like_a proportion_n with_o knowledge_n as_o the_o earth_n do_v with_o seed_n which_o though_o of_o herself_o she_o be_v fruitful_a and_o fat_a yet_o it_o behoove_v to_o manure_v she_o and_o use_v advisement_n to_o what_o sort_n of_o seed_n her_o natural_a disposition_n
