salt_n have_v power_n to_o dissolve_v other_o to_o coagulate_v therefore_o they_o say_v that_o humour_n coagulate_v by_o salt_n be_v to_o be_v cure_v by_o salt_n dissolve_v and_o they_o say_v that_o

of_o natural_a not_o artificial_a resolution_n but_o we_o deny_v that_o chemical_a resolution_n be_v not_o natural_a if_o we_o consider_v the_o immediate_a agent_n though_o the_o artificer_n be_v join_v for_o they_o be_v from_o heat_n and_o fire_n which_o be_v natural_a cause_n as_o for_o example_n when_o a_o plant_n be_v burn_v to_o make_v salt_n the_o action_n be_v plain_o natural_a not_o
