all_o by_o touch_v therefore_o the_o air_n be_v more_o moist_a &_o yet_o because_o water_n be_v of_o more_o round_a and_o compact_a substance_n then_o of_o a_o intentive_a quality_n some_o

for_o that_o heat_n and_o dryness_n be_v of_o more_o light_a matter_n then_o do_v it_o stand_v by_o natural_a reason_n that_o heat_n among_o other_o quality_n be_v active_a and_o as_o the_o quality_n

and_o so_o from_o thencefoorth_o there_o be_v certain_a instrument_n of_o necessity_n some_o cold_a some_o hot_a some_o moist_a and_o some_o dry_a if_o any_o one_o of_o they_o at_o any_o time_n do_v

thereunto_o and_o the_o rather_o because_o all_o body_n have_v a_o conjunction_n of_o the_o four_o element_n otherwise_o choler_n which_o be_v hot_a dry_a and_o cold_a can_v serve_v the_o body_n in_o

high_a degree_n for_o that_o certain_a immix_v element_n do_v want_v the_o temperance_n of_o the_o second_o quality_n now_o if_o successive_o these_o instrument_n be_v by_o this_o mean_v most_o

be_v unmeete_a and_o for_o this_o cause_n it_o be_v not_o only_o a_o seemly_a sight_n that_o these_o element_n after_o their_o great_a portion_n shall_v be_v gross_o mingle_v in_o a_o mixed_a body_n but_o that_o in_o the_o whole_a they_o become_v perfect_o unite_v and_o that_o there_o be_v no_o want_n in_o any_o part_n thereof_o therefore_o as_o diverse_a element_n be_v so_o mix_v in_o one_o body_n as_o that_o there_o be_v a_o full_a service_n of_o all_o the_o member_n one_o to_o another_o so_o be_v it_o righteous_a that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o whole_a perfect_a conjunction_n in_o the_o just_a commoderation_n of_o all_o other_o instrument_n for_o if_o all_o and_o every_o part_n be_v not_o equal_o moderate_v one_o part_n will_v decay_v and_o fall_v away_o from_o another_o for_o be_v not_o the_o body_n conserve_v and_o satisfy_v by_o the_o say_a element_n from_o hunger_n and_o thirst_n which_o otherwise_o will_v in_o all_o the_o part_n thereof_o languish_v and_o fall_v property_n wine_n be_v a_o bountiful_a element_n ordain_v to_o i_o perfect_a property_n away_o therefore_o man_n be_v nourish_v of_o the_o four_o elem●ts_n in_o that_o the_o heat_n of_o the_o sun_n
