discretion_n as_o to_o know_v that_o he_o that_o shall_v in_o your_o hear_n oppose_v your_o aristotle_n do_v like_o the_o ship_n here_o speak_v of_o run_v against_o a_o rock_n endanger_v his_o own_o bulge_v and_o the_o stave_v of_o his_o vessel_n no_o i_o so_o far_o honour_v the_o old_a aristotle_n that_o i_o well_o allow_v he_o to_o be_v master_n and_o moderator_n of_o the_o school_n and_o that_o there_o be_v the_o same_o respect_n due_a to_o he_o in_o the_o school_n which_o by_o reason_n and_o long_a custom_n be_v due_a to_o one_o of_o the_o king_n ship_n in_o the_o narrow_a sea_n that_o in_o acknowledgement_n of_o a_o sovereignty_n every_o other_o name_n ought_v to_o strike_v sail_n to_o he_o aristotle_n it_o must_v be_v confess_v have_v make_v all_o learning_n behold_v to_o

but_o whether_o his_o observation_n gather_v out_o of_o this_o part_n of_o the_o world_n alone_o can_v like_o a_o royal_a pass_n or_o a_o commission_n carry_v a_o man_n all_o the_o world_n over_o it_o must_v be_v confess_v that_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o equinoctial_a and_o the_o latitude_n that_o aristotle_n live_v in_o he_o be_v but_o a_o northern_a man_n and_o it_o be_v his_o own_o rule_n

now_o find_v out_o to_o have_v quite_o alter_v their_o observation_n i_o add_v that_o a_o good_a leisure_n and_o diligence_n may_v observe_v how_o in_o the_o contrary_a part_n of_o the_o world_n there_o be_v find_v clean_o contrary_a cause_n and_o effect_n unto_o those_o in_o this_o part_n of_o the_o world_n the_o southwind_n there_o bring_v cold_a and_o winter_n and_o the_o north_n be_v the_o rainy_a wind_n how_o will_v the_o thunder_n and_o the_o wind_n be_v make_v agree_v with_o aristotle_n definition_n of_o a_o meteore_n in_o some_o place_n of_o the_o mountain_n andes_n by_o

the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o tide_n nothing_o so_o uncertain_a which_o ebb_n and_o flow_v in_o some_o place_n different_z and_o in_o other_o contrary_a to_o the_o moon_n and_o her_o motion_n this_o as_o i_o remember_v be_v aristotle_n definition_n of_o a_o meteore_n 1._o that_o it_o be_v a_o imperfect_a mix_a body_n generate_v out_o of_o a_o infirm_a and_o inconstant_a concretion_n of_o the_o

his_o season_n half_a year_n one_o way_n and_o half_a year_n another_o way_n for_o all_o age_n nothing_o more_o constant_o or_o durable_o and_o therefore_o nothing_o like_o aristotle_n meteore_n and_o so_o for_o the_o thunder_n upon_o the_o andes_n it_o be_v first_o perpetual_a second_o not_o cause_v by_o a_o dry_a exhalation_n as_o aristotle_n will_v but_o hang_v over_o such_o hill_n as_o be_v

not_o to_o pass_v the_o line_n for_o it_o you_o see_v in_o this_o little_a book_n how_o charlton_n island_n which_o be_v no_o more_o northerly_a than_o your_o cambridge_n be_v yet_o so_o unsufferable_o cold_a that_o it_o be_v not_o habitable_a and_o that_o there_o encounter_v so_o many_o different_a at_o least_o so_o seem_a occurrence_n of_o nature_n as_o be_v well_o worth_a the_o

industrious_a searcher_n after_o nature_n in_o the_o modern_a relation_n of_o our_o discoverer_n then_o in_o this_o my_o short_a proposition_n it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v doubt_v but_o that_o the_o careful_a read_n of_o our_o book_n of_o voyages_n will_v more_o elucidate_v the_o history_n of_o nature_n and_o more_o conduce_v to_o the_o improvement_n of_o philosophy_n than_o any_o thing_n that_o have_v be_v late_o think_v upon_o these_o navigation_n have_v in_o part_n fulfil_v that_o of_o the_o prophet_n 4._o many_o shall_v pass_v to_o and_o fro_o and_o knowledge_n shall_v be_v increase_v this_o i_o suppose_v may_v be_v observe_v from_o this_o study_n that_o the_o great_a and_o infinite_a creator_n have_v so_o dispose_v and_o vary_v every_o thing_n that_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o man_n reason_n and_o observation_n to_o conclude_v he_o and_o therefore_o though_o vulgar_a and_o receive_a philosophy_n may_v give_v a_o man_n a_o general_a hint_n all_o the_o world_n over_o yet_o no_o universal_a and_o unfayling_a certainty_n this_o bring_v i_o to_o my_o second_o proposition_n 2._o that_o see_v god_n will_v not_o have_v his_o work_n no_o more_o than_o his_o kingdom_n to_o come_v by_o observation_n 20._o whether_o then_o ought_v any_o humane_a dictate_v to_o be_v so_o magisterial_a as_o to_o prescribe_v against_o all_o other_o examination_n no_o humane_a study_n more_o conduce_v to_o the_o set_v forth_o of_o god_n glory_n than_o the_o contemplation_n of_o his_o great_a work_n in_o philosophy_n for_o though_o a_o smattering_n knowledge_n in_o second_a cause_n warp_v the_o mind_n towards_o atheism_n yet_o a_o high_a speculation_n of_o they_o bring_v about_o again_o to_o religion_n no_o man_n i_o believe_v will_v think_v it_o fit_a for_o we_o to_o have_v a_o pope_n in_o philosophy_n one_o that_o no_o body_n shall_v presume_v to_o censure_v of_o but_o all_o be_v bind_v to_o advance_v his_o decretall_n above_o the_o holy_a scripture_n this_o be_v the_o scandal_n that_o myself_o and_o diverse_a good_a man_n take_v at_o the_o undue_a authority_n in_o some_o heat_n pin_v upon_o the_o stagerite_n i_o be_o sorry_a that_o the_o israelite_n dotage_n upon_o salomon_n philosophy_n rabbini_n shall_v have_v cause_v the_o zealous_a hezekiah_n to_o call_v in_o and_o to_o suppress_v those_o unualuable_a physics_n for_o fear_n i_o suppose_v lest_o their_o credit_n
