after_o the_o same_o sort_n we_o note_v also_o that_o beside_o this_o universal_a motion_n it_o have_v a_o other_o particular_a by_o which_o it_o move_v with_o the_o planet_n from_o west_n to_o east_n for_o every_o night_n it_o turn_v more_o eastward_o like_v unto_o the_o moon_n sun_n and_o planet_n of_o venus_n we_o do_v also_o observe_v a_o three_o particular_a motion_n whereby_o it_o move_v
