speak_v to_o they_o neither_o do_v i_o wonder_v that_o other_o in_o great_a authority_n and_o power_n will_v advance_v some_o person_n when_o they_o have_v but_o a_o new_a acquaintance_n or_o rather_o

be_v that_o if_o there_o be_v no_o vacuum_n but_o that_o all_o the_o universe_n be_v full_a only_o the_o gross_a body_n move_v in_o the_o thin_a body_n as_o be_v hold_v by_o many_o they_o do_v than_o the_o place_n of_o each_o solid_a or_o bulky_a body_n must_v be_v fit_v just_a to_o their_o measure_n and_o their_o place_n must_v be_v supply_v so_o as_o when_o they_o move_v the_o liquid_a or_o rare_a body_n must_v contract_v and_o dilate_v according_a to_o the_o motion_n of_o those_o bulky_a body_n to_o fill_v up_o their_o former_a place_n or_o follow_v place_n and_o to_o contract_n to_o make_v room_n and_o place_n for_o those_o solid_a and_o grosser_n body_n otherwise_o there_o will_v be_v a_o vacuum_n or_o a_o stoppage_n of_o all_o natural_a motion_n but_o i_o can_v conceive_v how_o the_o thin_a or_o rare_a matter_n can_v contract_n or_o dilate_v if_o there_o be_v no_o vacuum_n for_o to_o my_o reason_n there_o must_v be_v a_o space_n to_o dilate_v and_o contract_n into_o so_o as_o the_o rare_a part_n must_v be_v porous_a to_o contract_n and_o there_o must_v be_v empty_a place_n or_o space_n to_o dilate_v and_o if_o they_o say_v the_o space_n or_o place_n be_v the_o place_n or_o space_n where_o the_o solid_a body_n be_v in_o which_o they_o fill_v up_o as_o soon_o as_o they_o move_v out_o yet_o the_o space_n or_o place_n must_v be_v empty_a before_o the_o rare_a body_n enter_v for_o two_o body_n can_v be_v in_o one_o place_n at_o one_o time_n and_o if_o the_o great_a or_o solid_a body_n leave_v no_o place_n or_o space_n but_o always_o move_v in_o full_a matter_n i_o can_v imagine_v how_o they_o shall_v move_v if_o all_o place_n be_v full_a although_o they_o shall_v move_v in_o rare_a or_o thin_a matter_n for_o as_o i_o say_v the_o thin_a matter_n must_v be_v porous_a to_o contract_n and_o dilate_v to_o make_v way_n or_o fill_v up_o for_o if_o there_o be_v not_o pore_n or_o spongy_a or_o hollow_a space_n and_o place_n that_o which_o be_v liquid_a and_o rare_a will_v be_v as_o firm_a as_o brass_n or_o glass_n nay_o more_o for_o those_o no_o doubt_n be_v porous_a for_o if_o there_o be_v no_o vacuum_n every_o part_n will_v be_v press_a and_o join_v into_o a_o firm_a body_n or_o substance_n nay_o sure_o there_o will_v be_v great_a confusion_n among_o all_o the_o work_n of_o nature_n but_o why_o may_v not_o dilatation_n and_o contraction_n cause_n vacuum_n to_o be_v sometime_o more_o and_o sometime_o less_o but_o one_o will_v think_v there_o be_v no_o vacuum_n in_o nature_n because_o nature_n be_v force_v or_o seem_v to_o be_v so_o as_o to_o make_v way_n for_o life_n by_o death_n as_o if_o she_o have_v no_o room_n or_o space_n for_o life_n but_o what_o be_v cause_v by_o death_n but_o leave_v these_o empty_a and_o fill_v opinion_n i_o

faithful_a friend_n and_o servant_n cxlii_o madam_n it_o be_v to_o be_v observe_v that_o most_o man_n and_o woman_n be_v so_o busy_a to_o find_v out_o other_o man_n or_o woman_n fault_n as_o they_o forget_v their_o own_o and_o when_o they_o perceive_v any_o fault_n in_o other_o they_o be_v so_o joy_v as_o their_o tongue_n be_v like_o trumpet_n to_z sound_z out_o their_o reproach_n also_o they_o be_v busy_a in_o the_o inquiry_n of_o other_o misfortune_n but_o never_o consider_v the_o same_o or_o some_o other_o misfortune_n may_v light_v upon_o they_o also_o they_o be_v busy_a to_o inquire_v of_o every_o particular_a person_n private_a affair_n as_o their_o wealth_n order_v their_o family_n their_o pleasure_n or_o their_o discontent_n nay_o of_o every_o person_n or_o thing_n that_o concern_v they_o not_o but_o these_o busy_a nature_n or_o humour_n dwell_v with_o idle_a person_n as_o the_o most_o part_n of_o the_o gentry_n and_o not_o with_o laborious_a nay_o with_o the_o most_o foolish_a of_o the_o gentry_n not_o with_o the_o wise_a of_o they_o for_o wise_a man_n never_o inquire_v into_o other_o man_n affair_n that_o concern_v they_o not_o nor_o meddle_v with_o other_o man_n fault_n if_o they_o touch_v they_o not_o they_o wish_v well_o to_o all_o but_o regard_v nothing_o but_o their_o own_o affair_n they_o let_v other_o man_n suffer_v for_o their_o own_o crime_n and_o will_v have_v a_o care_n that_o they_o may_v not_o be_v guilty_a of_o crime_n to_o suffer_v for_o they_o will_v inquire_v how_o provision_n be_v sell_v when_o they_o be_v to_o buy_v not_o what_o their_o neighbour_n spend_v they_o go_v not_o to_o session_n or_o assize_n to_o hear_v the_o accusation_n or_o condemnation_n unless_o they_o be_v command_v or_o call_v nor_o do_v they_o inquire_v what_o thief_n be_v hang_v or_o how_o many_o but_o be_v careful_a that_o no_o thief_n may_v rob_v they_o and_o if_o they_o be_v country-gentleman_n and_o not_o courtier_n they_o inquire_v not_o what_o mask_n ball_n and_o play_n be_v at_o the_o court_n but_o what_o hawk_n and_o hound_n be_v in_o the_o country_n for_o their_o own_o sport_n and_o exercise_n and_o if_o they_o be_v wise_a courtier_n although_o not_o wise_a man_n they_o do_v not_o inquire_v what_o wake_n and_o fair_n there_o be_v in_o the_o country_n but_o what_o office_n or_o place_n they_o may_v beg_v neither_o do_v wise_a citizen_n inquire_v after_o hawk_n and_o hound_n in_o the_o country_n nor_o what_o mode-congy_n be_v at_o the_o court_n nor_o of_o the_o courtier_n amour_n but_o they_o inquire_v after_o their_o merchandize_n and_o how_o they_o may_v sell_v off_o their_o ware_n and_o what_o fair_n to_o send_v they_o to_o indeed_o they_o will_v inquire_v after_o a_o courtier_n if_o he_o owe_v they_o money_n neither_o do_v wise_a farmer_n inquire_v after_o the_o price_n of_o satin_n but_o how_o the_o market_n go_v for_o corn_n nor_o do_v their_o wife_n inquire_v how_o paint_n be_v sell_v but_o what_o cheesemonger_n will_v buy_v their_o cheese_n and_o pot_n of_o butter_n wherefore_o in_o my_o opinion_n society_n shall_v be_v apart_o by_o themselves_o like_o several_a commonwealth_n courtier_n shall_v only_o converse_v with_o courtier_n or_o courtly_a person_n and_o country_n gentleman_n with_o country_n gentleman_n citizens_z with_o citizens_z farmer_n with_o farmer_n and_o i_o think_v they_o do_v so_o at_o least_o be_v most_o please_v with_o the_o conversation_n of_o their_o own_o likeness_n also_o statesman_n shall_v only_o converse_v with_o statesman_n learned_a man_n with_o
