which_o be_v not_o like_a to_o that_o we_o see_v for_o fire_n be_v often_o but_o in_o potentia_fw-la in_o the_o body_n that_o be_v make_v of_o it_o what_o signify_v all_o these_o peripatetic_a

what_o he_o say_v upon_o that_o account_n he_o declare_v that_o there_o be_v four_o principal_a quality_n which_o belong_v to_o the_o sense_n of_o touch_v corrup_n viz._n heat_v cold_a humidity_n and_o siccity_n of_o which_o all_o the_o other_o be_v compose_v he_o distribute_v those_o primitive_a quality_n into_o the_o four_o element_n ascribe_v heat_n and_o dryness_n to_o fire_n heat_v and_o moisture_n to_o the_o air_n cold_a and_o moisture_n to_o water_n and_o cold_a and_o dryness_n to_o earth_n he_o assert_n that_o heat_v and_o cold_a be_v active_a quality_n but_o that_o dryness_n and_o moisture_n be_v passive_a he_o define_v heat_n what_o congregate_n thing_n of_o the_o same_o kind_n cold_a what_o congregate_n thing_n either_o of_o the_o same_o or_o of_o different_a species_n moisture_n what_o can_v easy_o be_v contain_v in_o its_o own_o limit_n but_o be_v easy_o keep_v within_o foreign_a bound_n and_o dryness_n what_o be_v easy_o contain_v within_o its_o own_o limit_n but_o will_v hardly_o be_v adapt_v to_o the_o bound_n of_o surround_v body_n thus_o according_a to_o aristotle_n fire_n be_v a_o hot_a and_o dry_a element_n and_o therefore_o congregate_n homogeneous_a thing_n be_v easy_o contain_v within_o its_o own_o limit_n and_o hardly_o within_o other_o air_n be_v a_o hot_a and_o moist_a element_n and_o therefore_o congregate_n homogeneous_a thing_n can_v hardly_o be_v keep_v within_o its_o own_o limit_n but_o easy_o within_o other_o water_n be_v a_o cold_a and_o moist_a element_n and_o therefore_o congregate_n both_o homogeneous_a and_o heterogeneous_a thing_n be_v hardly_o contain_v within_o its_o own_o limit_n but_o easy_o within_o other_o and_o last_o earth_n be_v a_o cold_a and_o dry_a element_n or_o such_o a_o one_o as_o

element_n explain_v according_a to_o the_o opinion_n of_o aristotle_n or_o the_o definition_n he_o have_v give_v of_o their_o principal_a quality_n and_o because_o if_o we_o may_v believe_v he_o the_o element_n be_v simple_a body_n out_o of_o which_o other_o be_v constitute_v and_o their_o quality_n be_v simple_a quality_n of_o which_o all_o other_o be_v compose_v the_o knowledge_n of_o those_o

must_v be_v deduce_v from_o thence_o let_v we_o then_o see_v what_o may_v be_v want_v to_o those_o principle_n first_o aristotle_n fix_v no_o distinct_a idea_n to_o the_o word_n quality_n it_o can_v be_v know_v whether_o by_o quality_n he_o understand_v a_o real_a be_v distinguish_v from_o matter_n or_o only_o a_o modification_n of_o matter_n he_o seem_v one_o while_o to_o take_v it_o in_o the_o former_a and_o at_o another_o time_n in_o the_o latter_a sense_n i_o grant_v that_o in_o the_o 8_o chapter_n of_o his_o category_n he_o define_v quality_n that_o by_o which_o thing_n be_v denominate_v so_o or_o so_o but_o that_o be_v not_o plain_a and_o satisfactory_a second_o his_o definition_n of_o the_o four_o primitive_a quality_n viz._n heat_v cold_a moisture_n and_o dryness_n be_v either_o false_a or_o useless_a we_o will_v begin_v with_o his_o definition_n of_o heat_n heat_v say_v he_o be_v that_o which_o congregate_n homogeneous_a thing_n first_o though_o that_o definition_n shall_v be_v true_a that_o heat_v always_o congregate_n homogeneous_a body_n yet_o we_o can_v see_v how_o it_o perfect_o explain_v the_o nature_n of_o heat_n second_o it_o be_v false_a that_o heat_v congregate_n homogeneous_a thing_n for_o heat_n dissipate_v the_o particle_n of_o water_n into_o vapour_n instead_o of_o heap_v they_o together_o it_o congregate_n not_o likewise_o the_o part_n of_o wine_n or_o any_o liquor_n or_o fluid_a body_n whatsoever_o even_o to_o quicksilver_n on_o the_o contrary_a it_o resolve_v and_o separate_v both_o solid_a and_o fluid_a body_n whether_o of_o the_o same_o or_o different_a nature_n and_o if_o there_o be_v any_o the_o part_n of_o which_o fire_n can_v dissipate_v it_o be_v not_o because_o they_o be_v homogeneous_a but_o because_o they_o be_v too_o gross_a and_o solid_a to_o be_v carry_v away_o by_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o fiery_a particle_n three_o heat_v in_o reality_n can_v neither_o congregate_v nor_o segregate_v the_o part_n of_o any_o body_n whatsoever_o for_o that_o the_o part_n of_o body_n may_v be_v congregat_v separate_a or_o dissipate_v they_o must_v be_v move_v but_o heat_n can_v move_v nothing_o or_o at_o least_o it_o appear_v not_o that_o it_o can_v move_v body_n for_o though_o we_o consider_v heat_n with_o all_o the_o possible_a attention_n we_o can_v discover_v that_o it_o may_v communicate_v to_o body_n a_o motion_n which_o it_o have_v not_o itself_o we_o see_v indeed_o that_o fire_n move_v and_o separate_v the_o part_n of_o such_o body_n as_o lie_v expose_v to_o its_o action_n but_o it_o be_v not_o perhaps_o by_o its_o heat_n it_o be_v not_o evident_a whether_o it_o have_v any_o it_o be_v rather_o by_o the_o action_n of_o its_o part_n which_o we_o visible_o perceive_v to_o be_v in_o a_o continual_a motion_n for_o these_o fiery_a particle_n strike_v against_o a_o body_n must_v needs_o impart_v to_o it_o somewhat_o of_o their_o motion_n whether_o there_o be_v or_o be_v not_o any_o heat_n in_o fire_n if_o the_o part_n of_o that_o body_n be_v not_o very_o solid_a fire_n will_v dissipate_v they_o but_o if_o they_o be_v very_o gross_a and_o solid_a fire_n can_v but_o just_a move_v they_o and_o make_v they_o slide_v one_o over_o the_o other_o and_o last_o if_o there_o be_v a_o mixture_n of_o subtle_a and_o gross_a part_n fire_n will_v only_o dissipate_v those_o which_o it_o can_v push_v so_o far_o as_o to_o separate_v they_o from_o the_o other_o so_o that_o fire_n can_v only_o separate_v and_o if_o it_o congregate_v it_o be_v only_o by_o accident_n but_o aristotle_n assert_n quite_o contrary_a 2._o separate_v say_v he_o which_o some_o ascribe_v to_o fire_n be_v but_o congregate_a homogeneous_a thing_n for_o it_o be_v only_o by_o accident_n that_o fire_n carry_v off_o thing_n of_o different_a nature_n if_o this_o philosopher_n have_v at_o first_o distinguish_v the_o sensation_n of_o heat_n from_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o small_a particle_n of_o which_o the_o body_n call_v hot_a be_v compose_v and_o have_v afterward_o define_v heat_n take_v from_o the_o motion_n of_o part_n by_o say_v that_o heat_n be_v what_o agitate_v and_o separate_v the_o invisible_a part_n or_o which_o visible_a body_n be_v make_v up_o he_o will_v have_v give_v a_o tolerable_a definition_n of_o heat_n though_o not_o full_a and_o satisfactory_a because_o it_o will_v not_o accurate_o discover_v the_o nature_n of_o motion_n in_o hot_a body_n aristotle_n define_v cold_a what_o congregate_n body_n of_o the_o same_o or_o different_a nature_n but_o that_o definition_n be_v worth_a nothing_o for_o cold_a congregate_n not_o body_n to_o congregate_v they_o it_o must_v move_v they_o but_o if_o we_o consult_v our_o reason_n we_o shall_v find_v that_o cold_a can_v move_v nothing_o for_o we_o understand_v by_o that_o word_n either_o what_o we_o feel_v when_o we_o be_v cold_a or_o what_o cause_v our_o sensation_n as_o to_o our_o sensation_n it_o be_v plain_a that_o it_o be_v mere_o passive_a and_o can_v neither_o move_v nor_o drive_v any_o thing_n and_o as_o to_o the_o cause_n of_o that_o sensation_n reason_n tell_v we_o if_o we_o examine_v thing_n that_o it_o be_v mere_o rest_n or_o a_o cessation_n of_o motion_n so_o that_o cold_a in_o body_n be_v no_o more_o than_o the_o cessation_n of_o that_o sort_n of_o motion_n which_o attend_v heat_n it_o be_v evident_a that_o if_o heat_v separate_v cold_a do_v not_o and_o therefore_o cold_a coacervate_v neither_o thing_n of_o the_o same_o nor_o of_o different_a nature_n since_o what_o can_v drive_v on_o body_n can_v amass_o
water_n that_o feel_v warm_a to_o the_o hand_n will_v seem_v cold_a if_o we_o wash_v with_o it_o any_o part_n near_o the_o heart_n salt_n that_o be_v savoury_a to_o the_o tongue_n be_v prick_v and_o

they_o seem_v sweet_a to_o some_o person_n whilst_o they_o taste_v bitter_a to_o other_o nay_o there_o be_v those_o to_o who_o aloe_n seem_v as_o sweet_a as_o honey_n the_o same_o may_v be_v say_v

etc._n etc._n be_v all_o equivocal_a and_o raise_v no_o clear_a and_o distinct_a idea_n in_o the_o mind_n however_o school-philosopher_n and_o the_o vulgar_a part_n of_o man_n judge_v of_o all_o the_o

of_o they_o but_o also_o judge_v of_o the_o thing_n themselves_o from_o the_o judgement_n they_o have_v pass_v about_o sensible_a quality_n for_o from_o their_o have_v have_v sensation_n of_o
