the_o spirit_n or_o vivific_a juice_n which_o be_v in_o the_o blood_n itself_o to_o which_o he_o add_v a_o axiom_n because_o say_v he_o the_o same_o quatenus_fw-la the_o same_o always_o operate_v the_o same_o and_o hence_o he_o conclude_v that_o the_o cause_n that_o make_v the_o first_o blood_n in_o the_o first_o conception_n the_o same_o or_o at_o least_o a_o cause_n aequipollent_a to_o it_o ought_v afterward_o also_o to_o be_v esteem_v the_o fountain_n of_o sanguification_n this_o opinion_n he_o confirm_v with_o many_o specious_a reason_n which_o i_o omit_v for_o brevity_n sake_n iu._n but_o we_o answer_v to_o the_o most_o opinion_n learned_a glisson_n that_o the_o vivific_a spirit_n be_v the_o first_o mover_n in_o the_o seed_n and_o that_o when_o it_o begin_v to_o rise_v into_o act_n and_o enliven_v the_o seed_n so_o dispose_v by_o its_o motion_n the_o vital_a juice_n to_o which_o it_o adhere_v as_o to_o its_o subject_a that_o out_o of_o some_o of_o its_o particle_n be_v make_v the_o heart_n out_o of_o other_o the_o liver_n out_o of_o other_o the_o vessel_n membrane_n etc._n etc._n and_o so_o by_o that_o motion_n they_o erect_v to_o themselves_o a_o habitation_n the_o several_a and_o particular_a part_n of_o which_o according_a to_o the_o various_a disposition_n of_o the_o least_o principle_n perform_v various_a and_o distinct_a operation_n over_o all_o which_o that_o spirit_n preside_v as_o general_a precedent_n for_o enliven_a all_o the_o part_n together_o it_o excite_v every_o one_o to_o the_o function_n proper_o allot_v to_o they_o not_o that_o the_o spirit_n perform_v the_o peculiar_a part_n of_o every_o one_o but_o whatever_o aptitude_n to_o act_v it_o bequeath_v to_o the_o several_a part_n in_o the_o first_o confirmation_n that_o aptitude_n it_o preserve_v by_o its_o presence_n without_o which_o they_o can_v perform_v no_o operation_n at_o all_o therefore_o the_o vivific_a spirit_n according_a to_o the_o axiom_n forecited_n always_o perform_v one_o and_o the_o same_o action_n in_o the_o whole_a body_n that_o be_v to_o say_v it_o enlivens_fw-la but_o it_o do_v not_o produce_v the_o matter_n to_o be_v enliven_v without_o which_o nevertheless_o it_o can_v subsist_v when_o the_o consumption_n of_o its_o subject_a that_o be_v the_o vital_a juice_n require_v daily_a reparation_n therefore_o the_o several_a part_n enliven_v generate_v that_o matter_n by_o degree_n and_o by_o virtue_n of_o many_o and_o various_a concoction_n and_o other_o preparatory_a operation_n which_o the_o vivific_a spirit_n can_v perform_v without_o those_o part_n for_o it_o can_v not_o chylifie_v without_o the_o stomach_n nor_o sanguifie_v without_o the_o heart_n and_o hence_o though_o that_o spirit_n be_v the_o general_a life_n of_o the_o whole_a body_n without_o which_o nothing_o can_v be_v do_v and_o which_o be_v presuppose_v to_o abide_v and_o be_v in_o all_o and_o singular_a the_o part_n special_o operate_a nevertheless_o because_o it_o can_v perform_v those_o operation_n without_o the_o say_a part_n it_o can_v be_v say_v that_o it_o absolute_o perform_v those_o peculiar_a operation_n but_o it_o be_v better_a and_o indeed_o necessary_a to_o say_v that_o they_o proceed_v from_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o several_a live_a part_n and_o so_o the_o ventricle_n in_o respect_n of_o its_o proper_a nature_n chylify_v and_o the_o heart_n only_o sanguify_v and_o no_o other_o part_n of_o the_o body_n can_v perform_v the_o same_o action_n because_o no_o other_o have_v the_o same_o propriety_n of_o nature_n false_a therefore_o it_o be_v what_o glisson_n say_v that_o it_o be_v not_o the_o heart_n but_o this_o vivific_a spirit_n which_o he_o certain_o presuppose_v to_o be_v in_o the_o blood_n that_o generate_v other_o new_a blood_n in_o the_o blood_n itself_o and_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o blood_n that_o the_o first_o be_v untrue_a be_v apparent_a from_o hence_o for_o that_o if_o the_o blood_n be_v generate_v out_o of_o the_o blood_n exist_v in_o the_o blood_n than_o the_o blood_n be_v out_o of_o order_n and_o distemper_v there_o will_v be_v a_o stop_n to_o sanguification_n but_o the_o contrary_n appear_v in_o person_n scorbutic_a and_o labour_v under_o cachexy_n in_o who_o sanguification_n nevertheless_o go_v forward_o nay_o the_o corruption_n of_o the_o blood_n be_v mend_v and_o correct_v by_o the_o benefit_n of_o the_o heart_n which_o otherwise_o can_v never_o be_v correct_v by_o reason_n of_o the_o distemper_n of_o the_o blood_n on_o the_o other_o side_n if_o the_o heart_n be_v out_o of_o order_n present_o there_o be_v a_o stop_n to_o sanguification_n and_o the_o blood_n itself_o be_v deprave_v the_o latter_a be_v false_a as_o appear_v by_o the_o dissection_n of_o live_a animal_n for_o if_o the_o beginning_n of_o the_o aorta-artery_n be_v tie_v with_o a_o string_n near_o the_o heart_n present_o all_o motion_n of_o the_o blood_n cease_v in_o the_o artery_n which_o will_v still_o continue_v if_o it_o contain_v within_o it_o such_o a_o spirit-mover_n of_o itself_o and_o have_v not_o its_o motion_n from_o without_o but_o cut_v the_o string_n and_o present_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o heart_n return_v by_o virtue_n of_o the_o pulse_n of_o the_o heart_n the_o same_o be_v also_o manifest_a in_o fainthearted_a person_n who_o at_o the_o time_n of_o

to_o be_v enliven_v v._o moreover_o i_o think_v it_o requisite_a blood_n more_o accurate_o to_o examine_v whether_o any_o vivific_a spirit_n as_o glisson_n presuppose_v be_v in_o the_o blood_n i_o know_v indeed_o that_o the_o vital_a spirit_n general_o so_o call_v be_v generate_v in_o the_o heart_n that_o be_v to_o say_v apt_a to_o be_v enliven_v and_o to_o promote_v sanguification_n by_o its_o

rouse_v into_o action_n by_o the_o flow_a in_o of_o the_o hot_a vital_a spirit_n in_o regard_v the_o blood_n itself_o be_v not_o yet_o a_o part_n of_o the_o body_n nor_o enliven_v but_o to_o be_v enliven_v when_o it_o shall_v be_v assimilate_v to_o the_o part_n vi_o thus_o a_o artist_n who_o have_v make_v simili●…_n a_o clock_n do_v not_o move_v the_o wheel_n nor_o show_v the_o hour_n but_o

therefore_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o heart_n must_v proceed_v from_o the_o same_o influx_n second_o because_o the_o several_a little_a nerve_n be_v not_o in_o vain_a insert_v into_o the_o basis_n of_o the_o heart_n but_o rather_o to_o that_o end_n that_o they_o may_v convey_v the_o animal_n spirit_n to_o accomplish_v its_o motion_n three_o for_o that_o it_o be_v manifest_a in_o the_o passion_n of_o the_o mind_n that_o the_o heart_n be_v more_o or_o less_o move_v by_o the_o great_a or_o lesser_a influx_n of_o those_o spirit_n but_o though_o these_o argument_n be_v propound_v with_o some_o

animal_n spirit_n be_v arbitrary_a especial_o in_o the_o muscle_n of_o which_o number_n they_o assert_v the_o heart_n to_o be_v but_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o heart_n be_v not_o arbitrary_a see_v it_o be_v not_o perform_v nor_o can_v be_v perform_v or_o alter_v at_o our_o pleasure_n 2._o because_o the_o heart_n beat_v in_o a_o hen-egg_n or_o other_o conception_n before_o the_o brain_n be_v
