the_o six_o by_o her_o hair_n the_o seven_o by_o her_o fairness_n or_o foulness_n as_o touch_v the_o first_o we_o may_v know_v that_o though_o it_o be_v true_a as_o tofore_o we_o have_v prove_v that_o the_o wit_n and_o ability_n of_o a_o woman_n follow_v the_o temperature_n of_o the_o brain_n and_o of_o none_o other_o member_n yet_o her_o womb_n and_o cod_n be_v of_o so_o great_a force_n and_o

be_v of_o the_o same_o tenor_n but_o the_o member_n which_o most_o partake_v the_o alteration_n of_o the_o belly_n all_o physician_n say_v be_v the_o brain_n though_o they_o have_v not_o set_v down_o the_o reason_n whereon_o they_o ground_n this_o correspondency_n true_a it_o be_v galen_n proove_v by_o experience_n that_o by_o spey_v a_o sow_n she_o become_v fair_a and_o fat_a and_o her_o flesh_n very_o savoury_a and_o if_o she_o have_v her_o cod_n she_o taste_v little_o better_o than_o dog_n flesh_n whereby_o we_o conceive_v that_o the_o belly_n and_o the_o cod_n carry_v great_a efficacy_n to_o communicate_v their_o temperature_n to_o all_o the_o other_o part_n of_o the_o body_n especial_o to_o the_o brain_n for_o that_o the_o same_o be_v cold_a &_o moist_a like_o themselves_o between_o which_o through_o the_o resemblance_n the_o passage_n be_v easy_a now_o if_o we_o conclude_v that_o cold_a and_o moist_a be_v the_o quality_n which_o work_v a_o impairment_n in_o the_o reasonable_a part_n and_o that_o his_o contrary_n namely_o hot_a and_o dry_a give_v the_o same_o perfection_n and_o increasement_n we_o shall_v find_v that_o the_o woman_n who_o show_v much_o wit_n and_o

between_o which_o two_o extreme_n argue_v the_o second_o degree_n for_o to_o think_v that_o a_o woman_n can_v be_v hot_a and_o dry_a or_o endow_v with_o a_o wit_n and_o ability_n conformable_a to_o these_o two_o quality_n be_v a_o very_a great_a error_n because_o if_o the_o seed_n of_o which_o she_o be_v form_v have_v be_v hot_a and_o dry_a in_o their_o domination_n she_o shall_v have_v be_v bear_v a_o man_n and_o not_o a_o woman_n but_o in_o that_o it_o be_v can_v and_o moist_a she_o be_v bear_v a_o woman_n and_o not_o a_o man_n the_o truth_n of_o this_o doctrine_n may_v clear_o be_v discern_v if_o you_o consider_v the_o wit_n of_o the_o first_o woman_n who_o live_v in_o the_o world_n for_o god_n have_v fashion_v she_o with_o his_o own_o hand_n and_o that_o very_o accomplish_a and_o perfect_a in_o her_o sex_n it_o be_v a_o conclusion_n infallible_o true_a that_o she_o be_v possess_v of_o much_o less_o knowledge_n than_o adam_n which_o the_o devil_n well_o weeting_n get_v he_o to_o tempt_v she_o and_o dare_v not_o fall_v in_o disputation_n with_o the_o man_n fear_v his_o great_a wit_n and_o wisdom_n now_o to_o say_v that_o eve_n for_o her_o offence_n be_v reave_v that_o knowledge_n which_o she_o want_v can_v be_v avouch_v for_o as_o yet_o she_o have_v not_o offend_v so_o then_o this_o defect_n of_o wit_n in_o the_o first_o woman_n grow_v for_o that_o she_o be_v by_o god_n create_v cold_a and_o moist_a which_o temperature_n be_v necessary_a to_o make_v a_o woman_n fruitful_a and_o apt_a for_o childbirth_n but_o enemy_n to_o knowledge_n and_o if_o he_o have_v make_v her_o temperate_a like_o adam_n she_o shall_v have_v be_v very_o wise_a but_o nothing_o fruitful_a nor_o subject_n to_o her_o monthly_a course_n save_v by_o some_o supernatural_a mean_n on_o this_o nature_n s._n paul_n ground_v himself_o when_o he_o say_v let_v a_o woman_n learn_v in_o silence_n with_o all_o subjection_n neither_o will_v he_o allow_v the_o woman_n to_o teach_v or_o
