to_o common_a observation_n as_o i_o shall_v demonstrate_v what_o have_v be_v the_o foundation_n of_o this_o assertion_n i_o can_v no_o where_o find_v out_o so_o clear_o as_o in_o a_o discourse_n write_v by_o one_o of_o the_o member_n of_o the_o royal_a society_n i_o think_v in_o the_o year_n 1678_o where_o consuting_a the_o power_n of_o the_o bark_n in_o cure_v ague_n he_o say_v that_o if_o the_o patient_n be_v trouble_v with_o a_o looseness_n while_o he_o be_v take_v the_o jesuit_n powder_n it_o can_v have_v no_o success_n therefore_o say_v he_o the_o bark_n have_v its_o power_n in_o a_o contrary_a way_n and_o be_v astringent_a then_o he_o subsume_v for_o his_o own_o purpose_n that_o because_o it_o be_v astringent_a it_o must_v be_v very_o hurtful_a in_o a_o disease_n that_o must_v be_v cure_v by_o evacuation_n to_o pass_v by_o at_o this_o time_n our_o author_n be_v neglect_v to_o prove_v that_o this_o disease_n must_v be_v cure_v ●y_a evacuation_n which_o i_o very_o much_o doubt_n for_o the_o reason_n intimate_v before_o i_o have_v say_v enough_o already_o to_o evince_v the_o weakness_n of_o his_o observation_n it_o be_v strange_a that_o one_o shall_v expect_v that_o any_o kind_n of_o medicine_n which_o produce_v not_o their_o effect_n in_o a_o minute_n but_o require_v some_o hour_n at_o least_o to_o affect_v the_o blood_n shall_v exert_v their_o virtue_n when_o they_o never_o come_v thither_o and_o this_o be_v the_o case_n of_o the_o jesuit_n powder_n in_o a_o looseness_n we_o may_v easy_o conclude_v that_o the_o quinquina_fw-la will_v not_o cure_v a_o ague_n in_o that_o case_n whether_o it_o be_v astringent_a or_o not_o by_o the_o bye_n since_o i_o have_v have_v occasion_n to_o examine_v this_o argument_n against_o the_o bark_n power_n of_o cure_v ague_n i_o can_v forbear_v take_v notice_n of_o another_o very_a good_a argument_n this_o author_n bring_v for_o the_o poisonous_a quality_n of_o the_o bark_n and_o that_o be_v a_o experiment_n from_o its_o hinder_v the_o fermentation_n of_o yeast_n and_o wort_n that_o because_o if_o a_o due_a quantity_n of_o the_o jesuit_n powder_n be_v cast_v into_o wort_n before_o the_o yeast_n be_v add_v the_o wort_n never_o ferment_n and_o therefore_o this_o powder_n be_v poisonous_a i_o confess_v i_o know_v not_o how_o to_o answer_v a_o argument_n which_o i_o do_v not_o comprehend_v but_o if_o every_o thing_n that_o hinder_v the_o fermentation_n of_o yeast_n and_o wort_n be_v poisonous_a what_o must_v become_v of_o we_o poor_a mortal_n in_o the_o poisonous_a time_n either_o of_o a_o

the_o hypothesis_n of_o acid_n and_o alkali_n tolerable_a i_o shall_v like_v the_o bark_n the_o better_a for_o the_o experiment_n this_o author_n have_v help_v i_o to_o for_o in_o that_o way_n the_o

what_o i_o say_v in_o cure_n the_o first_o part_n of_o this_o book_n that_o that_o viscid_a and_o slimy_a lentor_n which_o first_o stagnate_v in_o the_o capillary_a artery_n and_o then_o in_o these_o large_a vessel_n must_v be_v break_v and_o divide_v that_o it_o may_v be_v make_v a_o substance_n capable_a of_o be_v carry_v round_o the_o body_n without_o stop_v or_o stagnate_n and_o because_o this_o lentor_n have_v its_o supply_n from_o the_o primae_fw-la viae_fw-la the_o liver_n or_o other_o viscera_fw-la that_o be_v say_v to_o separate_v liquor_n by_o some_o or_o all_o of_o these_o liquor_n be_v viscid_a we_o must_v endeavour_v to_o cut_v off_o and_o intercept_v that_o supply_n and_o to_o break_v and_o render_v fluxil_v the_o liquor_n that_o be_v thus_o tough_a and_o viscid_a now_o from_o which_o of_o all_o these_o this_o lentor_n proceed_v and_o be_v supply_v be_v not_o always_o very_o evident_a though_o sometime_o it_o may_v happen_v to_o be_v so_o let_v we_o first_o suppose_v then_o that_o this_o supply_n come_v whole_o from_o the_o primae_fw-la viae_fw-la and_o upon_o this_o supposition_n we_o may_v conclude_v that_o those_o thing_n which_o empty_v the_o stomach_n and_o intestine_n of_o those_o impurity_n will_v do_v the_o business_n effectual_o and_o because_o a_o vomit_n perform_v that_o work_n with_o the_o great_a certainty_n than_o a_o vomit_n will_v be_v all_o that_o be_v requisite_a to_o complete_a that_o cure_n and_o the_o more_o gentle_a it_o be_v it_o will_v be_v more_o for_o the_o ease_n of_o the_o patient_n and_o satisfaction_n of_o the_o physician_n but_o i_o have_v prove_v before_o that_o the_o other_o viscera_fw-la may_v discharge_v some_o of_o their_o vitiate_a liquor_n into_o the_o blood_n which_o not_o be_v change_v into_o the_o perfect_a nature_n of_o the_o blood_n they_o stagnate_n in_o the_o capillary_a artery_n in_o that_o quantity_n and_o way_n that_o be_v fit_a to_o produce_v the_o forego_n phaenomena_n and_o they_o be_v in_o such_o circumstance_n as_o make_v they_o fit_a to_o affect_v the_o blood_n it_o be_v evident_a that_o those_o faulty_a and_o vicious_a humour_n must_v be_v break_v and_o divide_v that_o they_o may_v be_v fit_v to_o circulate_v with_o the_o blood_n without_o stagnate_v and_o that_o the_o blood_n which_o be_v thus_o affect_v must_v be_v reduce_v to_o a_o state_n of_o great_a fluxility_n if_o they_o have_v their_o viscidity_n from_o the_o primae_fw-la viae_fw-la that_o work_n can_v be_v do_v very_o easy_o but_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o the_o blood_n may_v be_v infinite_o change_v without_o any_o fault_n in_o these_o first_o passage_n and_o the_o viscera_fw-la that_o be_v now_o affect_v must_v have_v their_o juice_n alter_v or_o else_o they_o will_v still_o be_v in_o a_o condition_n to_o give_v a_o continual_a supply_n suppose_v the_o blood_n to_o be_v otherwise_o in_o a_o good_a condition_n now_o the_o only_a way_n that_o liquor_n which_o stagnate_n in_o their_o channel_n can_v be_v propel_v and_o make_v fluxil_n be_v by_o some_o power_n that_o may_v compress_v break_v and_o divide_v the_o liquor_n thus_o stagnate_v and_o because_o this_o break_n and_o divide_v must_v be_v perform_v by_o somewhat_o that_o contract_v or_o violent_o compress_n the_o obstruct_a part_n and_o break_v the_o stagnate_a juice_n and_o this_o can_v only_o be_v perform_v by_o the_o contraction_n of_o the_o muscle_n and_o their_o compress_v the_o viscera_fw-la that_o be_v near_o they_o therefore_o the_o moderate_a exercise_n of_o those_o muscle_n will_v be_v very_o agreeable_a but_o in_o our_o natural_a or_o voluntary_a contraction_n they_o have_v not_o that_o violence_n that_o be_v necessary_a to_o make_v a_o sufficient_a compression_n fit_a to_o break_v and_o divide_v this_o lentor_n and_o since_o there_o be_v a_o great_a many_o muscle_n that_o be_v obstruct_v and_o can_v have_v sufficient_o break_v the_o stagnate_a liquor_n in_o the_o neighbour_a viscera_fw-la that_o can_v be_v move_v and_o contract_v by_o the_o power_n of_o our_o will_n some_o way_n must_v be_v contrive_v to_o make_v such_o a_o violent_a contraction_n of_o those_o muscle_n especial_o that_o be_v able_a to_o compress_v the_o neighbour_a viscera_fw-la and_o if_o we_o examine_v all_o the_o consequence_n that_o attend_v the_o give_v of_o any_o medicine_n we_o shall_v find_v none_o that_o exercise_v more_o muscle_n and_o that_o with_o great_a violence_n than_o vomit_v for_o not_o only_o the_o muscle_n of_o the_o thorax_n and_o abdomen_fw-la be_v contract_v with_o a_o
