of_o the_o obstruct_v body_n but_o be_v not_o the_o side_n of_o the_o artery_n as_o stiff_a as_o the_o side_n of_o the_o vein_n etc._n etc._n but_o it_o be_v to_o be_v remark_v that_o obstruction_n happen_v in_o the_o place_n where_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o blood_n be_v slow_a and_o where_o there_o be_v very_o little_a dilatation_n of_o the_o artery_n so_o that_o all_o our_o pamphleteer_n quible_n serve_v to_o no_o purpose_n unless_o to_o prove_v that_o the_o be_v no_o obstruction_n at_o all_o for_o the_o doctor_n in_o the_o 22_o paragraph_n of_o that_o discourse_n show_v that_o the_o obstruct_n of_o viscous_a stick_a matter_n be_v to_o be_v find_v rather_o in_o the_o arteriae_fw-la evanescentes_fw-la then_o in_o the_o vein_n now_o the_o arteriae_fw-la evanescentes_fw-la retain_v nothing_o of_o a_o artery_n save_o the_o figure_n this_o be_v tell_v by_o the_o doctor_n in_o that_o paragraph_n in_o mathematical_a term_n that_o the_o thing_n may_v be_v less_o subject_a to_o

therefore_o no_o more_o motion_n in_o the_o one_o than_o in_o the_o other_o this_o be_v manifest_a by_o the_o vein_n be_v a_o continue_a conduit_n with_o the_o artery_n as_o the_o doctor_n prove_v and_o microscope_n let_v we_o see_v and_o thus_o our_o quibler_n pitiful_a shift_n be_v discover_v which_o depend_v upon_o gross_a ignorance_n of_o anatomy_n and_o mathematics_n and_o every_o thing_n that_o be_v accurate_o express_v that_o be_v put_v in_o a_o mathematical_a form_n of_o word_n let_v we_o now_o come_v up_o to_o his_o page_n 129._o the_o doctor_n have_v teach_v that_o willis_n and_o silvius_n and_o a_o great_a many_o other_o be_v in_o the_o wrong_n to_o place_v the_o cause_n of_o apoplexy_n &c_n &c_n in_o the_o nerve_n since_o by_o what_o be_v say_v in_o that_o discourse_n de_fw-fr circulatione_fw-la in_o genitis_fw-la &_o non_fw-la genitis_fw-la the_o say_a cause_n must_v principal_o be_v find_v in_o the_o artery_n and_o because_o the_o doctor_n know_v it_o be_v the_o common_a doctrine_n of_o the_o place_n he_o then_o be_v in_o that_o apoplexy_n be_v produce_v sometime_o by_o a_o coagulation_n of_o the_o blood_n in_o which_o case_n they_o reckon_v that_o ruptur_n and_o extravasation_n follow_v and_o sometime_o this_o be_v the_o opinion_n of_o syllvius_n a_o man_n famous_a there_o by_o a_o kind_n of_o coagulation_n of_o the_o spirit_n by_o the_o force_n or_o infection_n of_o opium_n or_o other_o body_n have_v the_o like_a quality_n now_o in_o this_o case_n they_o reckon_v no_o extravasation_n of_o blood_n since_o the_o fault_n be_v in_o the_o spirit_n and_o not_o in_o the_o blood_n the_o doctor_n make_v no_o doubt_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o what_o be_v allege_v in_o the_o first_o place_n since_o observation_n teach_v that_o apoplexy_n often_o fall_v out_o by_o the_o coagulation_n of_o the_o blood_n in_o the_o artery_n and_o consequent_o its_o extravasation_n and_o therefore_o he_o speak_v nothing_o of_o it_o but_o in_o general_a that_o whatever_o it_o be_v it_o must_v make_v the_o first_o obstruction_n in_o the_o artery_n and_o then_o he_o fall_v to_o examine_v the_o second_o opinion_n anent_o apoplexie_n be_v produce_v by_o the_o immobility_n and_o coagulation_n of_o the_o animal_n spirit_n which_o willis_n tollow_v too_o to_o do_v this_o aright_o he_o explain_v the_o way_n of_o opium_n work_v which_o be_v not_o by_o kill_v or_o coagulate_v the_o spirit_n but_o by_o rarify_n the_o blood_n which_o compress_n the_o nerve_n in_o the_o head_n where_o there_o be_v least_o resistance_n now_o this_o be_v so_o manifest_a that_o there_o be_v no_o rarifier_n of_o the_o blood_n of_o any_o force_n that_o be_v no_o efficacious_a sudorific_a that_o do_v not_o bring_v sleep_n on_o the_o person_n that_o be_v put_v a_o sweat_a here_o our_o pamphleteer_n object_n that_o then_o spirit_n of_o hart-horn_n &c_n &c_n and_o such_o like_a rarifier_n of_o the_o blood_n will_v bring_v man_n into_o apoplexy_n which_o nevertheless_o cure_v that_o disease_n this_o fellow_n have_v never_o see_v a_o apoplexy_n that_o talk_v of_o cure_v it_o by_o the_o rarify_n force_n of_o spirit_n of_o hart-horn_n and_o the_o like_a the_o volatile_a salt_n and_o spirit_n give_v in_o good_a quantity_n to_o apoplectic_a person_n work_v neither_o by_o their_o rarify_n quality_n nor_o by_o their_o coagulate_v one_o but_o by_o their_o stimulate_a and_o irritate_v force_n as_o the_o doctor_n teach_v we_o when_o he_o treat_v about_o apoplexy_n or_o the_o force_n and_o power_n they_o have_v of_o raise_v pain_n for_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o the_o foam_n of_o vinegar_n from_o a_o red_a hot-iron_n have_v as_o much_o virtue_n to_o recover_v one_o from_o a_o apoplectic_a fit_n as_o the_o spirit_n of_o hart-horn_n though_o vinegar_n be_v no_o great_a rarifier_n of_o the_o blood_n as_o for_o give_v the_o spirit_n of_o hart-horn_n or_o volatile_a salt_n inward_o a_o thing_n not_o to_o be_v do_v in_o the_o fit_a of_o a_o apoplexy_n if_o they_o be_v give_v in_o a_o good_a and_o sufficient_a quantity_n they_o will_v bring_v ease_n of_o pain_n and_o sleep_v just_a as_o do_v opium_n which_o i_o desire_v our_o pamphleteer_n to_o learn_v but_o it_o be_v not_o possible_a to_o see_v such_o effect_n of_o the_o volatile_a spirit_n or_o salt_n if_o they_o be_v give_v by_o one_o gut_n or_o grain_n for_o a_o do_v as_o he_o and_o his_o learned_a friend_n do_v order_n they_o now_o i_o leave_v it_o to_o a_o discreet_a reader_n to_o judge_v what_o a_o excellent_a argument_n this_o of_o the_o pamphleteer_n be_v against_o the_o doctor_n if_o say_v the_o pamphleteer_n page_n 130_o wine_n or_o any_o thing_n that_o rarefy_v the_o blood_n bring_v a_o fit_a of_o a_o apoplexy_n than_o another_o do_v of_o the_o same_o will_v cure_v you_o of_o the_o fit_a i_o leave_v this_o cure_n to_o his_o friend_n and_o comatade_n but_o i_o proceed_v the_o doctor_n teach_v that_o every_o thing_n which_o rarefy_v the_o blood_n so_o much_o that_o the_o artery_n in_o the_o brain_n contain_v it_o be_v dilate_v to_o a_o degree_n sufficient_a for_o compress_v the_o nerve_n there_o and_o so_o hinder_v the_o efflux_n of_o spirit_n will_v bring_v sleep_n and_o perhaps_o a_o fit_a of_o sleepy_a disease_n now_o this_o be_v evident_a o_o but_o say_v our_o pamphleteer_n then_o all_o sudorisicks_n etc._n etc._n will_v make_v we_o sleep_v and_o i_o tell_v he_o they_o will_v certain_o do_v so_o when_o either_o their_o quantity_n or_o force_n be_v such_o as_o to_o produce_v a_o dilatation_n of_o the_o artery_n sufficient_a to_o compress_v the_o nerve_n in_o the_o brain_n what_o he_o say_v far_a in_o this_o affair_n be_v arrant_a nonsense_n as_o be_v what_o he_o talk_v about_o the_o heart_n have_v a_o antagonist_n muscle_n than_o which_o nothing_o can_v have_v be_v say_v so_o contrary_a to_o anatomy_n and_o so_o proper_a to_o make_v our_o pamphleteer_n gross_a ignorance_n appear_v to_o the_o mean_a apprentice_n the_o doctor_n have_v teach_v that_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o heart_n motion_n not_o cease_v be_v that_o the_o heart_n have_v not_o a_o opposite_a muscle_n for_o at_o all_o time_n all_o the_o muscle_n have_v a_o equal_a quantity_n of_o spirit_n flow_v to_o they_o and_o keep_v they_o in_o aequilibrio_fw-la else_o one_o muscle_n will_v move_v the_o member_n while_o the_o other_o be_v destitute_a of_o spirit_n to_o blow_v it_o and_o contract_n it_o remain_v idle_a and_o useless_a now_o if_o muscle_n for_o bow_v the_o arm_n ex_fw-la gr_fw-la prevail_v it_o be_v because_o they_o have_v over_o and_o above_o the_o quantity_n of_o spirit_n and_o blood_n which_o they_o get_v to_o keep_v they_o in_o balance_n with_o those_o muscle_n which_o serve_v to_o hindet_fw-la it_o from_o bow_v a_o new_a quantity_n send_v to_o cast_v the_o balance_n and_o to_o make_v the_o contraction_n strong_a on_o their_o side_n now_o the_o heart_n have_v no_o muscle_n to_o act_v against_o it_o or_o to_o how_o a_o member_n to_o the_o contrary_a side_n needs_o few_o spirit_n and_o nerve_n less_o free_a from_o compression_n and_o so_o can_v be_v in_o motion_n when_o other_o muscle_n be_v not_o which_o require_v a_o quantity_n of_o spirit_n to_o overcome_v the_o quantity_n of_o their_o opposite_a muscle_n over_o and_o above_o what_o be_v requisite_a to_o keep_v they_o in_o aequilibrio_fw-la whereas_o the_o heart_n require_v no_o more_o than_o what_o will_v keep_v in_o aequilibrio_fw-la with_o its_o opposite_a if_o it_o have_v any_o and_o much_o less_o to_o this_o our_o pamphleteer_n answer_v that_o though_o the_o heart_n have_v not_o a_o opposite_a or_o antagonist_n muscle_n yet_o it_o have_v first_o the_o motus_fw-la restitutionis_fw-la to_o surmount_v and_o so_o have_v all_o muscle_n sir_n and_o this_o be_v our_o pamphleteer_n depth_n of_o anatomy_n as_o much_o as_o the_o heart_n next_o say_v he_o it_o have_v the_o blood_n to_o squirt_v out_o and_o no_o small_a force_n be_v requisite_a to_o that_o and_o sir_n other_o muscle_n have_v a_o heavy_a bone_n to_o lift_v up_o a_o leg_n or_o arm_n and_o no_o small_a force_n be_v requisite_a to_o this_o yea_o over_o and_o above_o they_o have_v the_o force_n of_o a_o contrary_a and_o equal_a muscle_n to_o overcome_v which_o the_o heart_n be_v not_o encumber_a with_o and_o this_o be_v the_o shallowness_n of_o our_o pamphleteer_n who_o have_v all_o along_o speak_v nonsense_n because_o he_o do_v not_o understand_v what_o it_o be_v to_o have_v or_o want_v a_o opposite_a or_o antagonist_n muscle_n yet_o he_o will_v needs_o quibble_n about_o it_o that_o he_o may_v seem_v to_o understand_v it_o he_o have_v have_v the_o like_a impudence_n over_o all_o the_o pamphlet_n in_o meddle_v with_o mathematics_n of_o which_o he_o be_v most_o gross_o ignorant_a so_o
