i_o also_o defend_v this_o opinion_n and_o suppose_v it_o true_a yet_o so_o as_o not_o to_o exclude_v the_o cause_n lay_v down_o in_o the_o first_o and_o three_o place_n the_o reason_n be_v these_o

that_o although_o most_o of_o the_o inhabitant_n divide_v the_o year_n into_o two_o season_n which_o be_v likewise_o observe_v by_o many_o writer_n to_o wit_n a_o pluvial_a and_o dry_a season_n yet_o

either_o in_o more_o or_o few_o hour_n return_v to_o the_o same_o vertical_a which_o difference_n notwithstanding_o be_v not_o great_a although_o therefore_o in_o all_o place_n the_o flux_n and_o
