in_o another_o place_n there_o be_v not_o in_o my_o opinion_n any_o beginning_n of_o the_o body_n but_o all_o the_o part_n seem_v equal_o to_o be_v both_o beginning_n and_o end_n together_o for_o

inquire_v whether_o the_o brain_n which_o be_v very_o soft_a in_o the_o embryo_n make_v animal_n spirit_n and_o by_o their_o assistance_n perform_v animal_n action_n i_o answer_v that_o as_o the_o

so_o the_o action_n of_o the_o brain_n liver_n and_o spleen_n be_v more_o necessary_a begin_v at_o the_o beginning_n but_o so_o weak_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o infirmity_n of_o the_o organ_n that_o they_o can_v be_v discern_v but_o by_o degree_n the_o more_o perfect_a they_o grow_v the_o more_o perceptible_a they_o be_v and_o hence_o it_o be_v probable_a that_o the_o brain_n at_o the_o beginning_n may_v begin_v to_o make_v animal_n spirit_n but_o very_o few_o and_o very_o weak_a because_o there_o be_v less_o need_n of_o they_o at_o the_o beginning_n but_o the_o strong_a the_o brain_n grow_v and_o the_o more_o need_n of_o spirit_n there_o be_v the_o strong_a and_o more_o vigorous_a spirit_n it_o make_v as_o be_v apparent_a by_o that_o time_n a_o woman_n have_v go_v half_a her_o time_n when_o the_o child_n begin_v to_o stir_v which_o motion_n can_v be_v perform_v without_o those_o more_o plentiful_a spirit_n and_o from_o that_o time_n the_o brain_n be_v so_o corroborate_v that_o at_o length_n it_o beget_v more_o plentiful_a and_o vigorous_a spirit_n fit_a to_o perform_v the_o chief_a animal_n action_n which_o principal_a action_n however_o be_v idle_a in_o the_o birth_n enclose_v in_o the_o womb_n where_o there_o be_v no_o occasion_n or_o necessity_n of_o imagination_n thought_n or_o memory_n but_o the_o infant_n be_v bear_v the_o brain_n

the_o animal_n spirit_n waste_v by_o watch_v occasion_v by_o the_o contraction_n of_o the_o pore_n and_o passage_n of_o the_o brain_n on_o the_o contrary_a that_o wakefulness_n be_v a_o convenient_a

and_o feel_v of_o the_o infant_n do_v not_o presuppose_v a_o necessity_n of_o wake_v for_o that_o man_n grow_v up_o and_o mature_v by_o age_n when_o fast_o asleep_a many_o time_n tumble_v and_o toss_v

spirit_n in_o the_o blood_n vi_o some_o assert_v that_o the_o heart_n be_v move_v by_o the_o respiration_n of_o the_o lung_n i._o the_o first_o opinion_n produce_v three_o spirit_n very_a specious_a reason_n for_o its_o support_n first_o because_o that_o in_o our_o body_n all_o apparent_a and_o violent_a motion_n be_v make_v by_o the_o influx_n of_o the_o animal_n spirit_n and_o that_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 appearance_n of_o probability_n yet_o that_o this_o opinion_n be_v far_o from_o truth_n several_a reason_n make_v manifest_a 1._o because_o those_o motion_n that_o proceed_v from_o the_o influx_n of_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

and_o slender_a that_o they_o can_v contribute_v a_o sufficient_a quantity_n of_o animal_n spirit_n to_o perfect_a that_o same_o durable_a motion_n for_o to_o all_o the_o move_a part_n be_v allow_v

nerve_n have_v another_o large_a move_a nerve_n so_o the_o muscle_n of_o the_o leg_n and_o arm_n as_o they_o cause_v swift_a or_o slow_a motion_n have_v great_a or_o lesser_a nerve_n which_o happen_v also_o in_o all_o the_o other_o part_n see_v then_o that_o all_o the_o other_o move_a part_n which_o rest_n much_o long_o than_o they_o be_v move_v require_v large_a and_o conspicuous_a nerve_n

never_o descend_v to_o the_o low_a part_n but_o always_o tend_v upward_o and_o exhale_v and_o hence_o although_o there_o shall_v be_v allow_v any_o animal_n spirit_n to_o be_v so_o subtle_a they_o will_v never_o descend_v into_o the_o nerve_n but_o will_v always_o fly_v upward_o through_o the_o pore_n but_o though_o these_o thing_n seem_v specious_a enough_o at_o a_o distance_n yet_o they_o neither_o prove_v nor_o confirm_v the_o say_a sentence_n to_o the_o first_o i_o answer_v that_o the_o birth_n in_o the_o womb_n be_v neither_o move_v with_o a_o animal_n motion_n nor_o feel_v until_o the_o first_o delineament_n of_o the_o brain_n and_o nerve_n be_v arrive_v and_o increase_v to_o such_o a_o bulk_n firmness_n and_o perfection_n that_o the_o brain_n may_v be_v able_a to_o generate_v

that_o perfection_n therefore_o the_o birth_n do_v not_o move_v itself_o until_o the_o woman_n have_v go_v out_o half_a her_o time_n that_o be_v about_o the_o four_o month_n and_o a_o half_a for_o

the_o motion_n of_o the_o birth_n proceed_v nor_o be_v it_o perform_v by_o the_o spirit_n or_o maternal_a nerve_n run_v to_o it_o of_o which_o there_o be_v none_o that_o enter_v the_o birth_n but_o

lesser_a heat_n which_o they_o call_v cold_a to_o assuage_v the_o heat_n of_o the_o arterious_a blood_n and_o in_o some_o measure_n to_o thicken_v its_o volatile_a sulphurous_a spirit_n that_o so_o the_o animal_n spirit_n may_v separate_v itself_o more_o pure_a from_o the_o salt_n particle_n and_o may_v flow_v into_o the_o nerve_n no_o long_o beset_v with_o superfluity_n of_o viscous_a vapour_n moreover_o it_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v that_o although_o the_o brain_n be_v say_v to_o be_v cold_a than_o other_o part_n yet_o that_o it_o be_v not_o absolute_o cold_a only_o that_o the_o temper_n of_o it_o be_v less_o hot_a than_o of_o many_o other_o part_n and_o that_o the_o proper_a confirmation_n of_o it_o be_v such_o as_o be_v most_o fit_a for_o the_o generation_n of_o spirit_n last_o the_o natural_a temper_n of_o the_o brain_n incline_v to_o cold_a be_v not_o such_o as_o stupefy_v the_o spirit_n nor_o render_v they_o unap●…_n to_o perform_v their_o action_n in_o the_o part_n but_o its_o preternatural_a cold_a temper_n exclude_v the_o blood_n and_o natural_a heat_n by_o a_o too_o close_a constriction_n of_o the_o pore_n be_v the_o cause_n that_o for_o want_n of_o

sensory_a organ_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o scarcity_n of_o the_o animal_n spirit_n to_o the_o three_o i_o answer_v that_o although_o the_o brain_n and_o nerve_n be_v nourish_v with_o arterious_a blood_n it_o do_v not_o thence_o follow_v that_o the_o animal_n spirit_n generate_v in_o the_o brain_n be_v nothing_o different_a from_o the_o blood_n and_o vital_a spirit_n generate_v in_o the_o

chylus_n into_o blood_n therefore_o the_o bread_n differ_v nothing_o either_o from_o the_o chylus_n or_o the_o blood_n to_o the_o last_o i_o say_v that_o the_o animal_n spirit_n will_v easy_o exhale_v out_o of_o the_o brain_n and_o pith_n unless_o they_o be_v there_o withhold_v in_o their_o cool_a workhouse_n which_o hinder_v their_o sudden_a exhalation_n and_o will_v flow_v into_o the_o nerve_n which_o be_v of_o a_o firm_a substance_n and_o thus_o all_o chemical_a spirit_n be_v best_a keep_v close_o in_o cool_a vessel_n and_o hinder_v from_o exhaling_a moreover_o that_o they_o will_v not_o

of_o diet_n for_o want_n of_o a_o thin_a who_o be_v therefore_o slow_a to_o all_o manner_n of_o animal_n action_n and_o of_o dull_a wit_n whereas_o on_o the_o other_o side_n they_o who_o live_v in_o

perhaps_o it_o may_v seem_v strange_a nerve_n to_o some_o people_n that_o the_o salt_n particle_n shall_v be_v make_v so_o subtle_a and_o spirituous_a as_o to_o be_v able_a to_o pass_v free_o

mild_a in_o that_o volatile_a and_o vaporous_a spirit_n because_o the_o small_a sharp_a particle_n be_v dissolve_v be_v more_o remote_a one_o from_o another_o and_o their_o force_n be_v break_v by_o

be_v the_o cause_n why_o the_o animal_n spirit_n do_v not_o corrode_v because_o that_o be_v dissolve_v into_o a_o most_o subtle_a vapour_n they_o have_v not_o so_o much_o acrimony_n in_o they_o as_o

with_o they_o for_o a_o vehicle_n which_o do_v not_o a_o little_a weaken_v and_o temper_v the_o acrimony_n moreover_o the_o part_n themselves_o through_o which_o they_o pass_v and_o into_o which_o
