cessation_n of_o the_o heart_n motion_n whilst_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o part_n be_v in_o good_a order_n as_o for_o my_o part_n i_o consider_v it_o in_o its_o spiritual_a nature_n believe_v that_o he_o must_v have_v too_o mean_v a_o idea_n of_o this_o spiritual_a substance_n who_o confine_v it_o to_o the_o brain_n and_o to_o the_o small_a part_n of_o it_o that_o opinion_n which_o affirm_v it_o to_o be_v present_a every_o where_o in_o the_o whole_a body_n although_o it_o operate_v more_o particular_o in_o the_o brain_n and_o heart_n seem_v to_o i_o to_o be_v more_o reasonable_a and_o for_o
