by_o the_o taste_n which_o they_o affirm_v to_o be_v the_o effect_n of_o coldness_n they_o conclude_v that_o vinegar_n be_v cold_a but_o they_o can_v very_o easy_o end_v this_o controversy_n which_o

the_o ●ame_n salt_n be_v of_o force_n to_o coagulate_a spirit_n and_o to_o dissolve_v body_n therefore_o it_o be_v effectual_a and_o a_o singular_a remedy_n against_o both_o inward_a and_o outward_a

bury_v in_o their_o proper_a body_n or_o tartarous_a fece_n but_o if_o thou_o will_v yet_o know_v more_o manifest_o the_o corrosive_n force_n spirit_n and_o inflame_a heat_n of_o the_o say_a spirit_n consider_v the_o strong_a water_n which_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o spirit_n of_o niter_n and_o vitriol_n which_o thou_o shall_v see_v will_v dissolve_v silver_n or_o any_o hard_a metal_n but_o if_o thou_o put_v but_o one_o only_a ounce_n of_o silver_n to_o one_o hundred_o pound_n weight_n of_o vitriol_n and_o niter_n as_o they_o be_v in_o their_o own_o nature_n and_o body_n yet_o they_o will_v never_o be_v able_a to_o dissolve_v it_o it_o be_v therefore_o manifest_a that_o such_o violent_a force_n and_o operation_n be_v only_o in_o the_o spirit_n separate_v evaporate_v and_o dissolve_v from_o their_o body_n the_o which_o force_n thou_o shall_v by_o no_o safe_a mean_n take_v away_o and_o suppress_v then_o if_o the_o same_o spirit_n be_v again_o incorporate_v and_o

there_o be_v some_o which_o now_o think_v that_o we_o have_v kill_v ourselves_o with_o our_o own_o sword_n objection_n will_v infer_v upon_o the_o same_o example_n by_o we_o allege_v that_o such_o essence_n prepare_v by_o chemist_n be_v all_o for_o the_o most_o part_n spiritual_a and_o therefore_o by_o consequence_n be_v more_o violent_a remedy_n than_o be_v fit_v for_o nature_n to_o bear_v

one_o and_o therefore_o the_o conclusion_n not_o good_a for_o it_o we_o take_v the_o spirit_n of_o vitriol_n or_o of_o salt-péete_a which_o indeed_o be_v spirit_n partake_v of_o the_o terrestrial_a fire_n yet_o nevertheless_o they_o may_v be_v so_o swéeten_v and_o mingle_v with_o broth_n or_o other_o convenient_a liquor_n that_o they_o will_v be_v very_o familiar_a to_o nature_n grateful_a savoury_a and_o gentle_a and_o not_o without_o great_a virtue_n and_o efficacy_n the_o juice_n of_o lemon_n give_v by_o itself_o alone_o into_o great_a plenty_n can_v hurt_v the_o stomach_n for_o the_o which_o cause_n our_o manner_n be_v to_o mingle_v it_o with_o some_o liquor_n or_o with_o sugar_n and_o to_o bring_v it_o into_o a_o syrup_n or_o julep_n no_o less_o profitable_a than_o please_v to_o the_o stomach_n but_o the_o virtue_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o vitriol_n be_v better_a know_v at_o this_o day_n virtue_n and_o commend_v of_o the_o most_o approve_a physician_n of_o diverse_a country_n then_o that_o the_o ignorant_a can_v detract_v any_o thing_n from_o the_o dignity_n and_o praise_n thereof_o it_o be_v report_v very_o credible_o that_o in_o france_n it_o be_v much_o use_v and_o commend_v for_o the_o effect_n it_o have_v to_o extinguish_v burn_a fever_n and_o not_o without_o just_a cause_n for_o it_o be_v a_o most_o singular_a remedy_n not_o only_o against_o fever_n but_o also_o against_o many_o other_o contumacious_a sickness_n as_o hereafter_o in_o due_a place_n shall_v be_v show_v but_o it_o be_v fit_a that_o no_o other_o presume_v to_o administer_v it_o than_o such_o as_o be_v expert_a physician_n not_o emperike_v and_o such_o as_o try_v conclusion_n by_o kill_a man_n furthermore_o the_o sharp_a spirit_n draw_v out_o of_o niter_n alone_o or_o sulphur_n among_o the_o metallic_a salt_n be_v of_o the_o same_o nature_n and_o property_n for_o these_o do_v avail_v no_o less_o than_o the_o other_o to_o extinguish_v fever_n of_o what_o kind_n

some_o which_o judge_v we_o worthy_a of_o much_o reprehension_n because_o we_o say_v afore_o that_o one_o and_o the_o selfsame_o sharp_a salt_n armoniar_n objection_n have_v both_o virtue_n to_o

we_o answer_v that_o as_o we_o have_v speak_v it_o so_o we_o will_v maintain_v it_o and_o therefore_o we_o say_v again_o that_o this_o salt_n ammoniac_a sharp_a of_o nature_n whereof_o we_o speak_v can_v both_o dissolve_v body_n and_o also_o which_o be_v more_o to_o be_v marvel_v at_o congeal_v spirit_n yea_o and_o which_o be_v yet_o more_o wonderful_a even_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o fire_n it_o can_v congeal_v and_o concern_v dissolution_n it_o shall_v not_o be_v necessary_a that_o we_o prove_v this_o because_o it_o be_v well_o know_v to_o person_n of_o very_a mean_a skill_n and_o now_o to_o
