i_o seek_v in_o this_o book_n be_v to_o eschew_v prolixity_n and_o because_o herein_o i_o will_v not_o willing_o exceed_v the_o bound_n of_o a_o preface_n make_v the_o porch_n big_a than_o the_o

first_o he_o create_v be_v four_o simple_n which_o be_v the_o four_o element_n of_o one_o and_o the_o same_o essence_n or_o matter_n but_o of_o divers_a form_n or_o quality_n and_o these_o as_o i_o will_v show_v hereafter_o more_o at_o large_a be_v call_v fire_n water_n earth_n and_o air_n and_o out_o of_o these_o he_o create_v all_o the_o rest_n that_o now_o be_v both_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v above_o and_o also_o those_o beneath_o we_o and_o that_o for_o this_o reason_n because_o the_o creature_n intend_v to_o be_v make_v may_v be_v extract_v from_o a_o certain_a root_n whereby_o they_o may_v multiply_v and_o increase_v in_o the_o world_n therefore_o first_o of_o all_o god_n create_v the_o four_o element_n out_o of_o which_o he_o afterward_o create_v what_o he_o please_v to_o wit_n divers_a nature_n as_o the_o element_n be_v divers_a for_o if_o the_o element_n have_v be_v make_v all_o of_o one_o nature_n than_o have_v all_o creature_n be_v so_o likewise_o now_o of_o this_o first_o matter_n he_o create_v the_o angel_n which_o he_o make_v only_o of_o fire_n not_o of_o firm_a substantial_a fire_n for_o than_o it_o must_v have_v be_v necessary_a that_o they_o have_v eat_v drink_v and_o sleep_v but_o he_o make_v they_o of_o the_o most_o pure_a and_o thin_a part_n of_o pure_a thin_a and_o simple_a fire_n and_o therefore_o they_o neither_o eat_v drink_v nor_o sleep_n god_n create_v the_o sun_n moon_n and_o star_n of_o two_o element_n air_n and_o fire_n and_o therefore_o be_v the_o angel_n more_o bright_a then_o either_o the_o sun_n moon_n or_o star_n because_o they_o be_v create_v of_o one_o and_o that_o the_o most_o rare_a element_n the_o other_o of_o fire_n and_o aire_n compound_v god_n make_v the_o heaven_n of_o water_n and_o aire_n so_o it_o be_v compound_v of_o one_o rare_a or_o light_a element_n that_o be_v aire_n and_o of_o another_o heavy_a that_o be_v water_n but_o he_o create_v the_o fowl_n and_o brute_n beast_n of_o three_o element_n and_o also_o the_o vegetables_n that_o be_v to_o say_v of_o air_n water_n and_o earth_n certain_a be_v of_o the_o earth_n and_o aire_n other_o of_o fire_n aire_n and_o earth_n of_o the_o last_o be_v

of_o earth_n water_n and_o air_n and_o they_o likewise_o partake_v of_o a_o kind_n of_o thin_a fire_n bring_v in_o with_o the_o air_n and_o therefore_o when_o we_o say_v that_o fire_n be_v in_o the_o vegetable_n we_o mean_v that_o thin_a fire_n that_o be_v in_o the_o air_n be_v carry_v by_o it_o and_o with_o it_o into_o they_o god_n make_v man_n of_o the_o four_o element_n as_o the_o most_o
