to be mixed with the Blood; yet he saith, that after several Experiments made, he could not by any good Argument evince the same. page 93.
He hath made the Experiment, That Whey tinged with Saffron, being injected into the Pulmonary Artery, imediately runs into the left Ventricle of the Heart, without the assistance of Inspiration. Neither doth any Blood at the same time break forth into the Lungs. p. 101. He faith further,
He supposeth, that Animal Motions, are not made by the influence of the Animal Spirits. But that in each Part is seated a private sense, which is under the command of the Soul. And that therefore there are no Animal Spirits, but those in the Blood, called by the Name of the Calor Nativus. In favour whereof many Arguments are offered from p. 123, to 141.
That the suspension or Intermission of Inspiration for a certain time, doth not alter the Puls. p. 145.
That the Cause of Transparency is to be refer'd to the Texture of the transparent Body, and its Aptitude to continue the Motion by which Light is made, p. 179. Much after the same manner, as Sound is ontinued through a Window or a Wall, p. 180. And that therefore the Rays of Light do not pass through a diaphanous Body, p. 184.
That Colours arise from the sparing or copious, strong or languid Reflections of Light from Bodies variously figured; as sounds from strings variously sized or stop'd, p. 185. So that the Nature of Light, is as if one should cause all the strings of a Viol to Vibrate together, so as to make one continued sound: that of Colours, as if their Vibrations were distinguished by divers and successive stops, p. 188.
