body_n be_v cause_v chief_o by_o the_o jejuness_n of_o the_o spirit_n indeed_o this_o philosophy_n be_v somewhat_o jejun_v for_o i_o will_v fain_o know_v whether_o there_o be_v not_o more_o spirit_n and_o less_o jejune_n in_o the_o hard_a body_n of_o clove_n nutmeg_n and_o cinnamon_n then_o in_o the_o soft_a body_n of_o wool_n silk_n and_o cotton_n according_a to_o his_o philosophy_n there_o be_v a_o great_a quantity_n of_o spirit_n in_o a_o pellet_n of_o butter_n because_o soft_a then_o in_o a_o nutmeg_n which_o be_v hard_o he_o that_o believe_v this_o let_v he_o when_o he_o be_v trouble_v with_o flatulency_n in_o his_o stomach_n use_v butter_n and_o not_o hard_a spice_n he_o say_v that_o moisture_n do_v chief_o colour_n hair_n but_o dryness_n turn_v they_o gray_a and_o white_a 851_o in_o his_o philosophy_n then_o gray_a and_o white_a be_v not_o colour_n nor_o indeed_o blackness_n which_o he_o say_v afterward_o be_v but_o a_o privative_a and_o consequent_o have_v no_o entity_n 873_o aristotle_n indeed_o sometime_o call_v black_a a_o privation_n but_o there_o he_o use_v the_o word_n in_o a_o large_a sense_n for_o if_o it_o be_v proper_o privative_a how_o can_v other_o colour_n be_v make_v of_o black_a and_o white_a see_v of_o habit_n and_o privation_n nothing_o can_v be_v make_v 853_o he_o say_v that_o some_o fish_n be_v great_a than_o any_o beast_n because_o these_o have_v not_o their_o moisture_n draw_v by_o the_o air_n and_o sunbeam_n also_o they_o rest_v always_o in_o a_o manner_n and_o be_v support_v by_o the_o water_n if_o these_o be_v the_o reason_n of_o fish_n greatness_n then_o why_o be_v smelt_n and_o other_o lesser_a fish_n small_a than_o the_o beast_n or_o why_o be_v they_o not_o as_o big_a as_o whale_n see_v neither_o air_n nor_o sunbeam_n draw_v away_o their_o moisture_n and_o be_v also_o support_v by_o the_o water_n the_o true_a cause_n then_o of_o the_o bigness_n of_o fish_n above_o the_o beast_n be_v the_o predominance_n of_o moisture_n in_o they_o which_o be_v easy_o extendible_a and_o indeed_o it_o be_v a_o frivolous_a thing_n to_o give_v reason_n for_o the_o different_a magnitude_n of_o the_o creature_n see_v nature_n have_v give_v to_o each_o creature_n a_o determinate_a magnitude_n and_o period_n of_o duration_n and_o whereas_o he_o think_v that_o fish_n do_v rest_n in_o a_o manner_n when_o they_o swim_v because_o they_o be_v support_v by_o the_o water_n he_o may_v as_o well_o say_v that_o beast_n and_o man_n rest_v when_o they_o walk_v and_o run_v because_o support_v by_o the_o earth_n they_o that_o swim_v find_v there_o be_v no_o rest_n but_o labour_n and_o motion_n before_o my_o lord_n tell_v we_o that_o by_o heat_n in_o putrefaction_n the_o spirit_n be_v emit_v suppress_v and_o suffocate_v but_o now_o he_o say_v 836_o that_o the_o spirit_n in_o putrefaction_n gather_v heat_n 856_o how_o the_o spirit_n at_o the_o same_o time_n shall_v be_v destroy_v by_o the_o heat_n and_o yet_o gather_v heat_n be_v so_o sublime_a a_o fancy_n that_o no_o fancy_n but_o his_o own_o can_v reach_v it_o 865_o water_n say_v he_o be_v contiguous_a with_o air_n cool_v it_o but_o moystn_v it_o not_o except_o it_o vapour_n because_o heat_n &_o cold_a have_v a_o virtual_a transaction_n without_o communication_n of_o substance_n but_o moisture_n not_o he_o take_v it_o for_o grant_v which_o no_o philosophy_n will_v grant_v he_o to_o wit_n that_o accident_n can_v pass_v from_o one_o subject_n to_o another_o without_o their_o substance_n which_o be_v to_o make_v accident_n subsist_v by_o themselves_o and_o to_o be_v all_o one_o with_o the_o substance_n which_o be_v repugnant_a to_o sense_n and_o reason_n therefore_o without_o vapour_n neither_o can_v the_o water_n moisten_v nor_o cool_v the_o air_n he_o say_v air_n be_v not_o without_o some_o secret_a degree_n of_o heat_n he_o need_v make_v no_o secret_a of_o it_o for_o it_o be_v manifest_a 866_o that_o the_o air_n be_v hot_a and_o moist_a as_o the_o
