from_o the_o four_o first_o as_o avicenna_n fansy_v who_o opinion_n fernelius_n copious_o confute_v it_o may_v be_v object_v that_o if_o temperament_n be_v a_o relation_n the_o action_n shall_v have_v

hot_a and_o moist_a hot_a and_o dry_a cold_a and_o moist_a cold_a and_o dry_a one_o moderate_a call_v eucrasy_n body_n so_o temper_v that_o one_o quality_n exceed_v the_o rest_n be_v say_v to_o be_v of_o a_o simple_a temperament_n but_o when_o two_o quality_n stand_v as_o it_o be_v in_o competition_n for_o supremacy_n over_o the_o rest_n they_o have_v a_o compound_a temperament_n but_o when_o all_o the_o quality_n be_v fix_v to_o a_o due_a mediocrity_n they_o be_v then_o esteem_v to_o be_v perfect_o temper_v hence_o may_v arise_v a_o objection_n that_o the_o first_o eight_o difference_n of_o temperament_n be_v cause_v by_o some_o predominant_a element_n or_o at_o least_o in_o our_o body_n by_o some_o predominant_a humour_n hence_o some_o temperament_n be_v term_v bilious_a some_o

a_o concurrence_n of_o the_o element_n that_o one_o quality_n may_v be_v break_v when_o the_o other_o be_v in_o excess_n viz._n if_o air_n and_o fire_n exceed_v the_o humidity_n of_o the_o one_o
