same_o as_o former_o we_o have_v declare_v therefore_o we_o say_v that_o as_o well_o the_o great_a conjunction_n as_o mock-star_n comet_n eclipse_n and_o the_o like_a ought_v not_o to_o be_v call_v the_o cause_n of_o future_a event_n but_o sign_n send_v from_o the_o supreme_a cause_n and_o from_o our_o saviour_n christ_n for_o the_o abomination_n of_o the_o world_n and_o the_o same_o be_v strong_o maintain_v in_o the_o say_n of_o astrologer_n especial_a by_o ptolemy_n in_o his_o centiloquy_n and_o apoth_v but_o chief_o in_o his_o apoth_n and_o aph._n 3_o because_o that_o art_n which_o remain_v in_o their_o proper_a subject_n can_v affirm_v nothing_o for_o certain_a concern_v future_a event_n therefore_o a_o astrologer_n ought_v not_o pronounce_v any_o thing_n absolute_o concern_v future_a accident_n but_o because_o the_o hide_a secret_n of_o god_n be_v impenetrable_a therefore_o we_o intend_v not_o as_o speculator_n and_o screwer_n out_o of_o the_o secret_n of_o god_n to_o prognosticate_v any_o thing_n but_o with_o the_o philosopher_n and_o astrologer_n it_o be_v lawful_a and_o requisite_a that_o we_o conjecture_v somewhat_o about_o the_o sign_n according_a to_o the_o effect_n of_o the_o star_n and_o like_o one_o that_o be_v parblinde_a see_v a_o thing_n a_o far_o off_o discern_v only_o a_o certain_a confuse_a shadow_n resemble_v many_o thing_n without_o know_v certain_o what_o it_o be_v by_o 2_o apot._n com._n 5._o the_o case_n stand_v thus_o we_o will_v come_v in_o the_o first_o place_n to_o the_o mock-star_n which_o appear_v anno_fw-la 1572._o and_o 1604._o which_o remain_v immovable_a the_o first_o in_o the_o chair_n of_o cassiopeia_n not_o far_o from_o that_o star_n in_o the_o erection_n of_o its_o seat_n in_o the_o milky_a way_n who_o

and_o ●_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o its_o appearance_n therefore_o we_o may_v conclude_v that_o this_o mock-star_n do_v exceed_v the_o bigness_n of_o the_o earth_n more_o than_o 500_o time_n and_o that_o this_o be_v truth_n it_o be_v the_o testimony_n of_o tycho_n for_o although_o the_o star_n do_v seem_v but_o very_o little_a to_o we_o and_o appear_v not_o unlike_o little_a face_n in_o heaven_n yet_o by_o the_o ingenious_a observation_n of_o mathematician_n it_o be_v find_v out_o that_o they_o be_v not_o only_o equal_a to_o the_o whole_a terrestrial_a globe_n but_o far_o exceed_v it_o by_o their_o greatness_n so_o that_o scarce_o any_o so_o little_a a_o star_n can_v be_v see_v in_o the_o firmament_n but_o it_o exceed_v at_o the_o least_o 18._o time_n the_o bigness_n of_o the_o earth_n as_o not_o to_o speak_v of_o other_o those_o star_n that_o be_v of_o the_o first_o magnitude_n exceed_v the_o earth_n 500_o time_n in_o bigness_n and_o though_o this_o may_v seem_v incredible_a to_o many_o yet_o will_v it_o not_o admit_v of_o any_o doubt_n in_o any_o man_n that_o right_o consider_v their_o unspeakable_a distance_n from_o we_o therefore_o if_o these_o little_a star_n appear_v but_o small_a to_o our_o sight_n yet_o certain_o they_o be_v of_o a_o huge_a magnitude_n wherefore_o from_o the_o beginning_n when_o it_o far_o exceed_v the_o star_n of_o the_o first_o

follow_v that_o from_o the_o beginning_n it_o exceed_v that_o quantity_n which_o the_o earth_n and_o water_n make_v much_o more_o than_o 100_o time_n but_o in_o progress_n of_o time_n it_o diminish_v by_o little_a and_o little_a that_o at_o last_o it_o vanish_v to_o nothing_o whereby_o it_o appear_v that_o the_o opinion_n of_o we_o and_o other_o have_v hitherto_o be_v erroneous_a whilst_o we_o think_v vapour_n to_o be_v transmit_v into_o heaven_n and_o generate_v comet_n and_o new_a star_n for_o if_o this_o star_n exceed_v the_o earth_n more_o than_o 500_o time_n from_o whence_o shall_v so_o many_o vapour_n arise_v therefore_o we_o say_v that_o the_o matter_n whereof_o new_a star_n be_v make_v be_v a_o transparent_a substance_n of_o heaven_n and_o a_o diaphanous_a or_o perspicuous_a
