that_o a_o fluid_a may_v undergo_v such_o a_o alteration_n as_o to_o be_v change_v into_o two_o consistent_a body_n and_o this_o be_v evident_a in_o distil_a salad_n oil_n since_o the_o substance_n

of_o the_o way_n abovementioned_a yet_o general_o at_o least_o three_o of_o they_o be_v at_o once_o concern_v semidiaphanous_a several_a body_n general_o esteem_v opacous_a semidiaphanous_a from_o
