of_o cold_a and_o heat_n and_o their_o quality_n and_o evacuation_n of_o humour_n no_o disease_n can_v be_v true_o cure_v he_o illustrate_v this_o by_o a_o example_n as_o say_v he_o he_o that_o

for_o purge_n attract_v vicious_a humour_n by_o the_o similitude_n of_o the_o whole_a substance_n and_o alterer_n must_v be_v like_a to_o the_o part_n to_o which_o they_o be_v apply_v and_o there_o

we_o must_v distinguish_v between_o a_o vital_a and_o a_o cure_v indication_n in_o species_n and_o when_o hypocrates_n say_v contrary_n be_v cure_v by_o contrary_n he_o speak_v not_o of_o a_o vital_a
