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
