swarve_v from_o true_a natural_a philosophy_n by_o this_o right_n it_o do_v appear_v possible_a to_o maintain_v the_o unity_n of_o heat_n and_o moisture_n till_o they_o spend_v themselves_o in_o

to_o extend_v it_o now_o if_o you_o look_v back_o upon_o the_o principle_n of_o man_n life_n and_o the_o principle_n of_o wine_n none_o will_v i_o hope_v condemn_v my_o philosophy_n though_o some_o
