than_o the_o lion_n it_o happen_v that_o the_o lion_n perceive_v it_o do_v present_o fly_v from_o he_o as_o the_o valiant_a hector_n be_v say_v to_o fly_v before_o achilles_n who_o be_v more_o brave_a and_o more_o warlike_a than_o he_o or_o else_o it_o be_v because_o the_o cock_n be_v a_o celestial_a fowl_n and_o the_o lion_n a_o terrestrial_a creature_n and_o of_o a_o grosser_n matter_n have_v

former_a but_o they_o will_v say_v perhaps_o that_o we_o see_v often_o in_o the_o air_n comet_n fiery_a flame_n and_o other_o prodigy_n true_a this_o i_o will_v not_o deny_v but_o these_o thing_n which_o they_o say_v be_v see_v in_o the_o air_n do_v not_o take_v their_o original_n neither_o of_o their_o atom_n nor_o of_o the_o air_n but_o be_v engender_v of_o the_o vapour_n dry_v up_o from_o

to_o and_o fro_o and_o to_o move_v themselves_o in_o the_o air_n for_o if_o they_o have_v attribute_v motion_n and_o stir_v unto_o spectre_n and_o have_v prove_v that_o natural_o without_o have_v

as_o we_o do_v and_o do_v live_v and_o change_v from_o place_n to_o place_n as_o we_o do_v then_o must_v they_o also_o prove_v unto_o we_o that_o the_o same_o shall_v be_v a_o spectre_n and_o not_o the_o image_n of_o the_o object_n oppose_v thereunto_o the_o which_o vanish_v away_o as_o soon_o as_o the_o same_o do_v absent_v itself_o from_o it_o reflection_n of_o the_o apparition_n of_o image_n form_v in_o the_o air_n by_o way_n of_o reflection_n and_o see_v we_o be_v now_o in_o the_o discourse_n of_o image_n form_v in_o a_o thick_a air_n it_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v that_o their_o

already_o speak_v sufficient_o do_v of_o image_n appear_v in_o the_o air_n by_o reflection_n and_o how_o it_o be_v do_v but_o as_o concern_v those_o which_o be_v by_o reflection_n it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o their_o property_n be_v to_o appear_v by_o another_o form_n than_o we_o namely_o of_o some_o lightsome_a body_n which_o grow_v into_o the_o thick_a and_o gross_a air_n in_o the_o

into_o our_o sight_n thus_o by_o way_n of_o reflection_n may_v a_o man_n see_v within_o a_o look_a glass_n those_o man_n which_o be_v walk_v and_o march_v in_o the_o street_n and_o sometime_o a_o

person_n who_o we_o see_v aloof_o walk_v and_o go_v up_o and_o down_o so_o likewise_o by_o way_n of_o reflection_n may_v a_o man_n see_v in_o the_o heaven_n sometime_o a_o second_o sun_n the_o image_n of_o the_o true_a sun_n and_o so_o likewise_o of_o the_o rainbow_n howbeit_o that_o this_o latter_a as_o aristotle_n will_v have_v it_o be_v not_o any_o reflection_n but_o a_o relation_n of_o the_o

will_v not_o be_v see_v in_o the_o water_n or_o in_o a_o look_a glass_n as_o it_o be_v and_o as_o daily_a experience_n show_v us._n and_o this_o also_o may_v serve_v for_o a_o solution_n to_o that_o argument_n of_o the_o epicure_n who_o by_o comparison_n of_o the_o clothes_n of_o tapestry_n that_o imprint_v their_o colour_n in_o the_o wall_n oppose_v will_v prove_v that_o the_o air_n may_v al●o_o

for_o the_o poor_a people_n not_o have_v bread_n to_o feed_v upon_o do_v sustain_v and_o nourish_v themselves_o with_o such_o infectious_a victual_n and_o then_o when_o the_o sun_n have_v heat_v the_o
