body_n be_v infect_v two_o way_n first_o from_o without_z in_o regard_n of_o the_o air_n and_o second_o from_o within_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o present_a state_n of_o the_o body_n from_o without_o those_o be_v most_o subject_a to_o it_o without_o who_o have_v thin_a body_n and_o open_a pore_n and_o who_o heart_n be_v so_o hot_a that_o they_o need_v much_o attraction_n of_o air_n to_o cool_v they_o from_o within_o they_o be_v most_o apt_a who_o vein_n and_o vessel_n be_v full_a of_o gross_a humour_n and_o corrupt_a ivice_n within_n the_o evil_a matter_n be_v thick_a and_o therefore_o can_v breathe_v out_o through_o the_o pore_n increase_v her_o putrefaction_n by_o the_o heat_n within_o unto_o the_o great_a malignity_n and_o so_o become_v pestilent_a therefore_o those_o body_n that_o be_v moist_a and_o full_a of_o juice_n who_o vein_n be_v strait_o and_o therefore_o apt_a to_o intercept_v then_o entertain_v the_o ivice_n and_o the_o thickness_n of_o who_o skin_n deny_v the_o transpiration_n of_o the_o excrement_n these_o be_v easy_o pollute_v and_o infect_v and_o such_o be_v woman_n especial_o woman_n with_o child_n for_o their_o body_n be_v full_a of_o

to_o admit_v of_o any_o alteration_n upon_o the_o light_a occasion_n and_o because_o they_o fetch_v their_o breath_n short_a have_v but_o little_a room_n for_o respiration_n they_o draw_v in_o much_o air_n with_o which_o the_o seed_n of_o contagion_n be_v attract_v and_o so_o be_v apt_a to_o be_v infect_v from_o without_o and_o likewise_o because_o they_o be_v natural_o moist_a and_o feed_v upon_o the_o moist_a kind_n of_o meat_n and_o feed_v also_o with_o more_o appetite_n than_o judgement_n they_o be_v therefore_o the_o more_o subject_a to_o pestilent_a infection_n from_o within_o likewise_o the_o sanguine_a and_o delicate_a fair_a complexion_n who_o blood_n and_o ivice_n be_v fine_a and_o thin_a than_o other_o and_o therefore_o more_o subject_a to_o mutation_n be_v quick_o infect_v for_o the_o plague_n be_v able_a to_o insinuate_v itself_o into_o all_o the_o humour_n but_o into_o some_o more_o easy_o than_o other_o as_o into_o blood_n first_o choler_n next_o fleam_v after_o and_o

and_o therefore_o we_o see_v the_o plague_n sweep_v up_o such_o people_n in_o great_a heap_n indeed_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o air_n the_o rich_a be_v as_o subject_a as_o they_o for_o both_o breath_n
