the_o same_o sun_n at_o the_o same_o time_n in_o the_o same_o garden_n do_v clothe_v the_o lily_n in_o white_a the_o rose_n and_o cherry_n in_o red_a and_o divers_a fruit_n in_o black_a it_o be_v

a_o cause_n at_o all_o which_o the_o doctor_n in_o his_o former_a objection_n seem_v to_o deny_v 2._o i_o say_v that_o the_o sun_n be_v the_o sole_a primary_n cause_n if_o there_o be_v any_o other_o

confess_v there_o be_v plantation_n of_o negro_n in_o asia_n all_o which_o retain_v their_o original_a blackness_n last_o he_o object_v that_o in_o the_o part_n where_o the_o negro_n possess_v there_o be_v river_n to_o moisten_v the_o air_n and_o in_o lybia_n there_o be_v such_o dry_a and_o sandy_a desert_n as_o there_o be_v no_o water_n at_o all_o but_o what_o be_v bring_v on_o camel_n back_n and_o yet_o there_o be_v no_o negro_n therefore_o dryness_n can_v cause_v blackness_n i_o answer_v 1._o it_o can_v be_v prove_v that_o the_o ne●_n grow_v who_o dwell_v near_o river_n have_v their_o

of_o lybia_n be_v dry_a yet_o they_o be_v not_o so_o hot_a as_o under_o the_o line_n it_o be_v the_o excess_n of_o heat_n and_o siccity_n together_o that_o cause_v blackness_n and_o not_o one_o of_o these_o alone_a 4._o we_o see_v man_n grow_v tawny_a here_o by_o converse_v much_o in_o the_o sun_n and_o further_a south_n more_o tawny_a and_o still_o as_o the_o heat_n increase_v the_o degree_n
