consideration_n be_v these_o i_o show_v in_o the_o first_o stadium_n 1._o that_o the_o vital_a motion_n of_o the_o blood_n be_v sometime_o disorder_a impede_v and_o impugn_a by_o cause_n preternatural_a and_o chief_o by_o crude_a humour_n constitute_v a_o peculiar_a fermentative_a inquinament_n of_o the_o blood_n and_o that_o from_o thence_o arise_v a_o duel_n or_o conflict_n between_o the_o vital_a spirit_n on_o one_o side_n and_o that_o inquinament_n on_o the_o other_o which_o conflict_n in_o putrid_a fever_n be_v call_v by_o the_o ancient_n putrefaction_n and_o fermentation_n by_o the_o modern_n 2._o that_o the_o same_o ferment_n in_o fever_n tend_v natural_o to_o the_o oppression_n of_o the_o vital_a mication_n of_o the_o blood_n in_o which_o life_n itself_o immediate_o consist_v 3._o that_o the_o crudity_n of_o humour_n generate_a that_o ferment_n and_o consequent_o fever_n do_v consist_v chief_o in_o this_o that_o the_o spirit_n of_o our_o food_n receive_v into_o the_o stomach_n either_o have_v not_o be_v by_o the_o concoctive_a faculty_n thereof_o sufficient_o exalt_v which_o always_o happen_v in_o fever_n simple_o putrid_a or_o though_o excite_a have_v not_o be_v subdue_v and_o tame_v so_o as_o to_o become_v useful_a and_o fit_a to_o promote_v the_o vital_a mication_n of_o the_o blood_n which_o always_o happen_v in_o malignant_a fever_n 4._o that_o the_o principal_a reason_n why_o in_o putrid_a fever_n it_o be_v unsafe_a to_o purge_v before_o nature_n have_v concoct_v the_o crude_a matter_n mix_v with_o the_o blood_n seem_v to_o be_v this_o that_o in_o the_o whole_a body_n be_v no_o secretory_a organ_n destine_v peculiar_o to_o the_o separation_n of_o humour_n yet_o crude_a from_o the_o mass_n of_o blood_n 5._o that_o the_o analogous_a humour_n of_o the_o ancient_n be_v coincident_a with_o the_o element_n by_o the_o modern_n suppose_v to_o constitute_v the_o blood_n and_o that_o it_o be_v plain_o necessary_a that_o in_o every_o fever_n of_o whatever_o sort_n some_o one_o or_o more_o of_o those_o analogous_n humour_n be_v in_o fault_n 6._o that_o the_o formal_a reason_n of_o a_o malignant_a ferment_n be_v radicate_v in_o some_o seminal_a nature_n pernicious_a to_o the_o principle_n of_o life_n in_o man._n in_o the_o second_o 1._o that_o the_o oppressive_a energy_n of_o the_o febrile_a ferment_n describe_v come_v immediate_o from_o the_o pendulous_a lentor_n or_o clamminess_n of_o it_o by_o which_o it_o be_v apt_a to_o render_v the_o blood_n soul_n and_o roapy_a and_o to_o inviscate_v the_o vital_a spirit_n that_o shall_v by_o their_o expansive_a motion_n conserve_v its_o purity_n 2._o that_o these_o vital_a spirit_n be_v incite_v to_o raise_v a_o fermentation_n not_o by_o the_o exhalation_n of_o the_o blood_n retain_v but_o only_o by_o the_o say_a clamminess_n of_o the_o crude_a matter_n induce_v the_o fever_n in_o the_o three_o 1._o that_o the_o symptom_n contingent_a in_o the_o begin_n of_o a_o febrile_a paroxysm_n may_v be_v most_o commodious_o refer_v to_o the_o aforesaid_a conflict_n or_o colluctation_n betwixt_o the_o expansive_a endeavour_n of_o the_o vital_a spirit_n and_o the_o opposite_a clamminess_n of_o the_o febrile_a ferment_n and_o 2._o that_o the_o symptom_n succeed_v in_o the_o augment_v state_n and_o declination_n may_v be_v with_o equal_a congruity_n solve_v by_o the_o same_o hypothesis_n in_o the_o four_o 1._o that_o the_o cardinal_a difference_n of_o fever_n be_v most_o probable_o derive_v from_o the_o different_a ferment_n that_o induce_v they_o immediate_o 2._o that_o the_o origin_n of_o all_o fever_n simple_o putrid_a i._n e._n free_a from_o all_o malignity_n may_v be_v most_o congruous_o deduce_v mediate_o from_o defect_n either_o of_o chylification_n or_o transpiration_n and_o free_a motion_n of_o the_o blood_n whether_o this_o happen_v with_o or_o without_o extravasation_n thereof_o 3._o that_o the_o blood_n when_o inquinate_v by_o crude_a chyle_n do_v not_o present_o conceive_v a_o fermentation_n but_o after_o some_o time_n and_o by_o degree_n 4._o that_o in_o intermittent_a fever_n the_o matter_n of_o each_o single_a fit_a be_v not_o generate_v anew_o but_o come_v from_o a_o general_a foam_n existent_a in_o the_o very_a substance_n of_o the_o solid_a part_n imperfect_o nourish_v with_o crude_a juice_n 5._o that_o this_o very_a substance_n of_o the_o solid_a part_n be_v melt_v into_o a_o kind_n of_o sanies_fw-la or_o putrid_a matter_n and_o remixt_v with_o the_o blood_n in_o all_o putrid_a fever_n 6._o that_o the_o analogous_a humour_n of_o the_o ancient_n result_n from_o various_a crudity_n mix_v with_o the_o blood_n and_o that_o from_o thence_o arise_v various_a sort_n of_o fever_n namely_o biliose_fw-la pituitose_n and_o melancholic_a 7._o that_o the_o division_n of_o fever_n into_o continual_a and_o intermittent_a do_v immediate_o depend_v upon_o the_o fermentation_n sometime_o continual_a sometime_o cease_v and_o recur_v diverse_o by_o interval_n 8._o that_o a_o intermittent_a fever_n simple_a be_v not_o the_o direct_a cause_n of_o a_o intermittent_a double_a or_o triple_a in_o the_o five_o and_o last_o 1._o that_o to_o the_o maturation_n of_o the_o crude_a matter_n be_v require_v three_o thing_n viz._n dissipation_n and_o consumption_n of_o the_o unexcited_a spirit_n therein_o remain_v moderation_n of_o the_o fermentation_n already_o begin_v and_o conservation_n of_o the_o vital_a faculty_n 2._o that_o in_o order_n to_o safe_a and_o opportune_a evacuation_n of_o the_o same_o peccant_a matter_n be_v require_v also_o due_a preparation_n of_o the_o way_n or_o passage_n by_o which_o it_o be_v to_o be_v educe_v and_o that_o by_o remedy_n lubricant_a abstergent_fw-la aperient_fw-la 3._o that_o sometime_o even_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o putrid_a fever_n purgation_n be_v requisite_a special_o when_o vicious_a humour_n molest_v in_o the_o first_o region_n of_o the_o body_n or_o when_o the_o febrile_a matter_n be_v turgent_fw-la or_o when_o part_n of_o it_o be_v transmit_v together_o with_o the_o stale_a recrement_n of_o
