gives either heat or flame i for he fays, that there is nO) 
Actd^ of either the Vegetable.mineral, or Animal King- 
dome, which affords it. He fnftanccs in the Acidum 
Ventriculi^ difucci Pancreatici, whereas on the contrary, 
the Gall, which contains no ^^:/^, but affords Oyl, gives^ 
alfo flame, and heat. 
2. He endeavours to prove fpirit of Wine, to be an 
Oyl. 
He obviates fomeObjedions. 
Mr. Kunkel in anlwer to the firft Propofition , fays, 
he never declared it his opinion, that any body lliould 
produce heat, without the AccelEon of a Frigidumi 
(which in other places he calls VrinoJumJ as alfo, that fpi- 
rit of Wine was a pure Acid- hatdi fpiritus dup'icatus : 
but that there is move Acid in it, then of th^frtgidum , he 
is fure, cannot be deny ed. 
He agrees with his Opponent,that no pure Acidiimn 
inflammable, but that Vrinojum and terra muft be added. 
He denyes that there is a pure Acidum in the World ; for 
he fays, where there is luch a pure Acidum, there muft 
be a pure fait j but there is no fuch thing in the Animal, 
or Vegetable World. 
He examines 1 8 Ounces of the Gall of an Ox, from 
which he obtains 16 Ounces of deer water by Difl:illa- 
tion, of a ftinking Oyl, and half an ounce of a fait Earth, 
in which: he fays there; is a Sal Acidum : io that he would 
afcribe Inflammability to belong rather to the Acidum 
thtn Oleafum. He examines blood alfo, from whence 
his Antagonifl: may argue, namely that the Oyl in the 
blood, gives the naturall heat to the body; but he will 
afcribe more to the fait : for he fays, that in cafe blood 
be gently evaporated ad Jiccitatem, and then expofed to 
the Air, a certain fait, of a Nitrous Nature, will grow 
upon in by this you may fee the fait to predominate, in 
cafe you edulcorate this dryed blood by frequent abla- 
tions with water,and then difl:ill the mentioned exficcat-
