not_o find_v that_o this_o be_v of_o a_o duskie_n leadon_n complexion_n as_o saturn_n be_v and_o as_o the_o last_o dreadful_a star_n be_v neither_o do_v it_o seem_v so_o fiery_a as_o mars_n be_v and_o

well_o conjecture_v to_o be_v slow_a from_o its_o present_a situation_n whereof_o we_o have_v a_o plain_a and_o familiar_a instance_n in_o a_o common_a ocular_a demonstration_n as_o the_o nave_n of_o a_o cartwheel_n must_v move_v much_o slow_a than_o the_o ring_n or_o remote_a rim_z of_o that_o wheel_n move_v because_o the_o former_a be_v near_a to_o and_o the_o latter_a be_v far_a from_o the_o axletree_n upon_o which_o they_o both_o be_v turn_v now_o that_o which_o have_v the_o lesser_a circle_n and_o circumference_n to_o run_v must_v needs_o move_v slow_a than_o that_o which_o have_v one_o ten_o time_n great_a to_o compass_v when_o both_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o must_v exact_o run_v round_o their_o circular_a course_n at_o one_o and_o the_o same_o precise_a point_n of_o time_n the_o rim_z run_v round_o as_o soon_o as_o the_o nave_n though_o it_o have_v the_o far_o great_a circle_n and_o the_o nave_n be_v no_o soon_o about_o than_o the_o ring_n though_o it_o have_v the_o far_o lesser_a circumference_n the_o like_a may_v be_v demonstrate_v upon_o all_o wheel_n which_o be_v move_v upon_o one_o axletree_n the_o part_n whereof_o make_v their_o launche_n in_o motion_n lesser_a or_o large_a as_o they_o be_v distant_a from_o their_o canter_n nigh_a or_o remote_a all_o proportionable_o concur_v to_o accomplish_v their_o course_n and_o circumference_n together_o so_o it_o be_v with_o this_o blaze_a star_n now_o seat_v so_o nigh_o the_o northern_a pole_n it_o have_v the_o like_a motion_n with_o the_o external_a part_n of_o the_o nave_n or_o end_v of_o the_o spoke_n fix_v in_o it_o which_o fulfil_v their_o course_n no_o fast_o than_o those_o end_v fasten_v in_o the_o ring_n or_o rim_z of_o the_o wheel_n though_o they_o have_v a_o small_a circle_n and_o this_o be_v the_o true_a reason_n why_o this_o comet_n set_v now_o about_o eleven_o a_o clock_n and_o rise_v again_o about_o three_o because_o it_o be_v whirl_v about_o by_o the_o primum_fw-la mobile_a in_o that_o part_n of_o the_o firmament_n which_o be_v so_o nigh_o the_o northern_a pole_n therefore_o it_o can_v have_v no_o long_a recess_n out_o of_o our_o horisontal_n fight_v this_o be_v plain_o exemplify_v by_o the_o sun_n which_o in_o the_o tropic_a of_o cancer_n nigh_a our_o zenith_n and_o the_o northern_a pole_n have_v short_a night_n and_o long_a day_n than_o when_o it_o be_v far_o off_o in_o the_o tropic_a of_o capricorn_n now_o whereas_o the_o great_a bear_n be_v so_o nigh_o the_o lesser_a bear_n or_o pole_n never_o set_v at_o all_o to_o we_o but_o run_v its_o own_o circle_n night_n and_o day_n in_o our_o horizon_n never_o visit_v the_o other_o hemisphere_n so_o it_o be_v but_o rational_a that_o this_o star_n situate_v so_o nigh_o to_o it_o shall_v have_v only_o a_o short_a dip_v under_o the_o globe_n of_o the_o earth_n show_v itself_o a_o little_a while_n to_o the_o other_o horizon_n the_o long_a train_n whereof_o never_o all_o set_v at_o all_o but_o some_o part_n of_o its_o
