by_o the_o continual_a agitation_n and_o often_o draw_v thereof_o the_o water_n may_v be_v more_o purify_v and_o the_o terren_z substance_n pass_v away_o the_o better_a by_o that_o mean_n and_o thus_o much_o may_v suffice_v for_o the_o goodness_n of_o water_n respective_o to_o the_o health_n of_o man_n body_n but_o if_o we_o have_v regard_n to_o the_o coldness_n of_o water_n necessary_a it_o be_v that_o the_o well_o shall_v stand_v in_o some_o cool_a and_o shadowy_a place_n not_o expose_v to_o the_o sun_n and_o nevertheless_o open_a to_o the_o broad_a air_n that_o it_o may_v have_v the_o
