the_o same_o q_o e._n be_v the_o colour_n life_n and_o propriety_n of_o thing_n it_o be_v a_o spirit_n like_o the_o spirit_n of_o life_n with_o this_o difference_n that_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o life_n of_o a_o thing_n be_v permanent_a but_o of_o man_n mortal_a from_o whence_o may_v be_v understand_v that_o a_o quintessence_n can_v be_v extract_v from_o the_o flesh_n or_o blood_n of_o a_o man_n and_o that_o for_o this_o reason_n because_o the_o spirit_n of_o life_n which_o also_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o virtue_n die_v and_o the_o life_n exist_v in_o the_o soul_n which_o then_o afterward_o be_v not_o in_o the_o substance_n by_o the_o same_o reason_n also_o even_o the_o animal_n because_o they_o lose_v their_o spirit_n of_o life_n be_v therefore_o whole_o mortal_a and_o afford_v no_o quintessence_n for_o the_o quintessence_n be_v the_o spirit_n of_o the_o thing_n which_o very_o can_v be_v so_o well_o extract_v out_o of_o thing_n sensible_a as_o our_o of_o

yet_o notwithstanding_o the_o life_n and_o virtue_n be_v therein_o for_o this_o reason_n because_o that_o be_v a_o fix_v predestination_n therefore_o the_o quintessence_n may_v be_v extract_v therefrom_o and_o be_v also_o conserve_v with_o the_o life_n thereof_o without_o corruption_n as_o a_o thing_n eternal_a according_a to_o its_o predestination_n but_o now_o can_v we_o but_o extract_v after_o this_o manner_n the_o life_n of_o the_o heart_n without_o corrupt_v it_o even_o as_o be_v possible_a for_o we_o to_o do_v out_o of_o thing_n insensible_a without_o doubt_n we_o may_v be_v capable_a of_o live_v perpetual_o without_o the_o knowledge_n or_o feel_n of_o death_n and_o disease_n the_o which_o thing_n be_v impossible_a for_o we_o to_o do_v and_o therefore_o we_o must_v expect_v to_o die_v whereas_o therefore_o the_o quintessence_n be_v the_o virtue_n of_o the_o thing_n we_o must_v in_o the_o first_o place_n tell_v you_o in_o what_o form_n the_o virtue_n and_o

there_o be_v not_o so_o much_o of_o the_o operation_n as_o of_o the_o wine_n as_o be_v evident_o apparent_a if_o gall_n be_v cast_v into_o water_n it_o make_v it_o all_o bitter_a although_o the_o

we_o to_o dream_v that_o the_o quintessence_n be_v a_o certain_a five_o essence_n above_o the_o element_n when_o as_o even_o it_o itself_o be_v a_o element_n likewise_o some_o or_o other_o may_v

consist_v of_o such_o a_o temperature_n for_o by_o it_o it_o will_v be_v whole_o alienate_v from_o the_o element_n but_o all_o quintessence_n have_v a_o nature_n according_a to_o the_o element_n as_o for_o example_n the_o quintessence_n of_o gold_n have_v a_o nature_n according_a to_o the_o fire_n the_o q._n e._n of_o lune_fw-fr according_a to_o the_o water_n of_o saturn_n according_a to_o the_o

implant_v property_n its_o great_a cleanness_n and_o purity_n whereby_o it_o do_v in_o a_o wonderful_a manner_n alter_v and_o change_v the_o body_n into_o cleanness_n for_o even_o as_o a_o spot_n or_o film_n be_v take_v off_o from_o the_o eye_n wherewith_o it_o be_v darken_v afore_o even_o so_o do_v the_o quintessence_n mundify_v the_o life_n in_o man_n neither_o do_v it_o follow_v that_o all_o

because_o both_o of_o they_o be_v of_o a_o fiery_a nature_n he_o will_v be_v extreme_o mistake_v because_o the_o predestination_n and_o disposition_n cause_v the_o diversity_n of_o virtue_n for_o even_o as_o every_o animal_n contain_v in_o himself_o the_o spirit_n of_o life_n and_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o they_o have_v not_o all_o of_o they_o the_o very_a same_o like_a virtue_n because_o they_o all_o consist_v of_o flesh_n and_o blood_n but_o one_o differ_v from_o another_o as_o in_o taste_n so_o in_o virtue_n even_o so_o be_v it_o with_o the_o quintessence_n the_o which_o do_v not_o

neither_o sweetness_n nor_o sourness_n nor_o any_o power_n or_o virtue_n beside_o the_o mixion_n of_o the_o four_o element_n and_o this_o secret_a we_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v ignorant_a of_o in_o

internal_o it_o attract_v whatsoever_o be_v take_v in_o by_o the_o mouth_n external_o it_o attract_v the_o air_n earth_n water_n and_o fire_n thus_o therefore_o be_v the_o business_n to_o be_v

attract_v through_o the_o whole_a skin_n from_o the_o four_o external_a element_n what_o be_v necessary_a for_o it_o which_o if_o it_o shall_v not_o do_v the_o internal_a nutriment_n will_v not_o suffice_v for_o a_o man_n support_n and_o because_o that_o moisture_n be_v so_o very_a existent_n in_o the_o body_n by_o custom_n the_o same_o body_n extract_v it_o out_o of_o the_o element_n water_n and_o so_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o as_o long_o as_o one_o shall_v sit_v or_o stand_v therein_o he_o need_v not_o any_o other_o quench_v of_o his_o thirst_n now_o this_o proceed_v not_o from_o

of_o the_o body_n to_o wit_n self_n it_o be_v able_a to_o sustain_v it_o for_o many_o year_n for_o as_o much_o as_o food_n and_o drink_n be_v not_o so_o ordain_v or_o appoint_v as_o that_o we_o must_v

such_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v complete_o do_v as_o first_o of_o all_o by_o what_o mean_v the_o five_o sense_n shall_v be_v help_v by_o the_o mystery_n of_o nature_n when_o as_o they_o proceed_v not_o from_o nature_n nor_o have_v a_o natural_a rise_n or_o birth_n as_o any_o herb_n have_v out_o of_o its_o own_o seed_n but_o there_o be_v no_o matter_n which_o may_v produce_v they_o second_o the_o

three_o there_o must_v be_v a_o knowledge_n of_o the_o division_n of_o all_o the_o power_n in_o the_o body_n and_o what_o thing_n they_o be_v that_o have_v a_o agreement_n with_o each_o member_n and_o be_v to_o be_v transmute_v according_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o those_o member_n whereas_o notwithstanding_o they_o be_v at_o the_o beginning_n one_o only_a nature_n first_o of_o all_o therefore_o we_o will_v speak_v of_o these_o of_o see_v hear_v touch_v taste_v and_o smell_a you_o may_v take_v this_o teach_a example_n the_o eye_n have_v a_o matter_n of_o which_o they_o consist_v as_o be_v

nor_o the_o hear_n or_o tone_n out_o of_o that_o of_o which_o the_o ear_n be_v make_v nor_o proceed_v the_o touch_n from_o the_o flesh_n nor_o the_o taste_n out_o of_o the_o tongue_n nor_o the_o

neither_o be_v we_o to_o understand_v that_o these_o sense_n have_v their_o dependence_n upon_o the_o grace_n and_o pleasure_n of_o the_o creator_n in_o such_o wise_a as_o not_o to_o be_v of_o the_o nature_n of_o man_n but_o only_o infuse_v by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n supernatural_o to_o this_o end_n that_o the_o great_a wonder_n of_o god_n may_v if_o at_o any_o time_n a_o man_n be_v bear_v blind_a be_v make_v know_v unto_o we_o we_o be_v not_o to_o conceive_v of_o it_o thus_o in_o this_o place_n for_o the_o aforesaid_a sense_n have_v their_o proper_a insensible_a and_o impalpable_a body_n even_o as_o on_o the_o contrary_a the_o other_o part_n of_o the_o body_n be_v tangible_a for_o every_o man_n be_v compose_v of_o two_o viz._n of_o a_o material_a and_o of_o a_o spiritual_a body_n the_o materiality_n give_v body_n blood_n and_o flesh_n but_o the_o spirituality_n give_v hear_v see_v smell_a touch_v and_o taste_v so_o then_o if_o one_o be_v bear_v deaf_a it_o proceed_v from_o the_o defect_n of_o that_o mansion_n place_n in_o which_o the_o hear_n be_v to_o abide_v for_o the_o spiritual_a body_n do_v not_o perfect_a its_o operation_n in_o a_o ill_a dispose_v place_n the_o cause_n of_o which_o we_o set_v down_o in_o the_o book_n of_o the_o generation_n of_o man_n in_o this_o therefore_o be_v the_o great_a wonder_n of_o god_n to_o be_v know_v that_o there_o be_v two_o body_n viz._n a_o eternal_a and_o a_o corporal_n couch_v and_o conclude_v in_o one_o as_o be_v also_o manifest_v in_o the_o book_n of_o the_o generation_n of_o man_n now_o medicine_n work_v upon_o the_o house_n and_o cleanse_v it_o whereby_o the_o spiritual_a body_n be_v able_a to_o perfect_v its_o proper_a action_n therein_o no_o otherwise_o then_o as_o civet_n in_o a_o clean_a and_o
