Meaning

In quibus ergo hæc actio eſ debilis, ut in imbecillis, defeſſis a laboribus prægressis, ut & ſenibus, admodum exigua reperitur perſpiratio: quia perſpirabilis materia in ſecunda coctione non ſatis elaboratur debilitate organorum.
In those, therefore, in whom this action is weak, as in the weak, exhausted from previous labors, and in the elderly, very little perspiration is found: because the perspirable matter is not worked up in the second coction due to the weakness of the organs.1736, Joannes de Gorter, chapter 12, in De perspiratione insensibili, 1st edition, page 115:
