Rupescissa, De consideratione	Brunschwig, Large book
“Oportet rem quaerere, quae sic se habeat respectu quatuor qualitatum, quibus compositum est corpus nostrum, sicut se habet caelum respectu quatuor elementorum” (p. 19).	“Wie sich halt der hymel gegen den fier qualiteten / also halt sich quinta essentia unser hymel / gegen dem menschen / der da gemacht is vß den fier Elementischen qualiteten / mit dem zuosamen gesetzt ist unser leib” (fol. 11v.).
[A thing must be sought which should be situated with respect to the four qualities of which our body is composed, as heaven is situated with respect to the four elements.]	[As heaven is situated with respect to the four qualities, so quinta essentia, our heaven, is situated with respect to man who is made of the four elemental qualities of which our body is composed.]
“Omnem excessum cuiuscunque qualitatis amputet, & quamcunque qualitatem deperditam restauret: humidum naturale faciat abundare, & ignem naturale debilem inflammare procuret” (p. 18).	“Schneidet ab alle vberflüssigkeit der fier qualitet […] vnnd widerbringt ein ieglich verlorende qualitet / machet genuogsam natürlich fücht / schafft wider zuo entzünden dz geschwechte naturlich füer als da spricht Johannes Rubicissi” (fols 10v.–11r.).
[It shall cut off any excess of whichever quality, and whichever quality is lacking it shall restore; it shall make natural moisture abound and set alight the weak natural fire.]	[It cuts off any excess of the four qualities, brings back any lost quality, generates sufficient natural moisture, and rekindles weakened natural heat, as John of Rupescissa says.]
