participative_a life_n for_o the_o solid_a part_n be_v therefore_o say_v to_o participate_v of_o the_o nature_n of_o life_n or_o the_o vital_a constitution_n because_o the_o vital_a spirit_n be_v

examination_n of_o they_o we_o only_o note_v that_o the_o mutual_a concourse_n and_o union_n of_o the_o vital_a and_o natural_a constitution_n by_o their_o spirit_n do_v not_o occur_v in_o this_o

that_o more_o hurt_n than_o advantage_n may_v be_v expect_v from_o this_o remedy_n for_o if_o they_o be_v apply_v to_o any_o part_n of_o the_o head_n by_o reason_n of_o their_o continual_a suck_a they_o will_v easy_o cause_v a_o more_o violent_a afflux_n of_o the_o blood_n to_o those_o part_n and_o if_o they_o be_v apply_v to_o other_o part_n they_o draw_v the_o blood_n from_o the_o part_n which_o before_o have_v too_o little_a second_o cuppinglass_n be_v not_o we_o conceive_v so_o dangerous_a as_o needless_a indeed_o we_o altogether_o reject_v those_o that_o be_v minister_v with_o

to_o the_o turn_a joint_n of_o the_o neck_n the_o shoulder_n the_o haunch_n to_o the_o inner_a part_n of_o the_o thigh_n to_o the_o sol_n of_o the_o foot_n and_o to_o other_o place_n as_o the_o
