she_o judge_v it_o to_o be_v at_o five_o or_o six_o hundred_o pace_n distance_n for_o general_o our_o imagination_n represent_v no_o great_a space_n betwixt_o the_o object_n and_o ourselves_o unless_o assist_v by_o a_o sensible_a view_n of_o other_o intervening_a object_n and_o beyond_o which_o it_o have_v still_o liberty_n to_o imagine_v something_o more_o it_o be_v for_o this_o reason_n that_o the_o moon_n at_o the_o rise_n or_o set_v be_v see_v much_o big_a end_n than_o when_o elevate_v a_o good_a height_n above_o the_o horizon_n for_o this_o elevation_n remove_v our_o view_n from_o off_o

these_o natural_a judgement_n of_o the_o sight_n be_v found_v only_o on_o the_o perception_n of_o the_o same_o sight_n and_o reason_n be_v unable_a to_o correct_v they_o so_o that_o they_o frequent_o
