most_o clear_o demonstrate_v unto_o you_o that_o the_o air_n include_v in_o the_o weatherglass_n have_v in_o every_o respect_n a_o relation_n unto_o the_o air_n or_o catholic_a element_n of_o the_o

the_o common_a air_n in_o that_o hemisphere_n wax_v cold_a and_o be_v contract_v and_o condense_a and_o consequent_o the_o particular_a air_n in_o the_o glass_n will_v be_v contract_v after_o the_o
