and_o stop_v their_o journey_n so_o that_o such_o a_o body_n will_n as_o near_o as_o possible_o it_o can_v lie_v in_o a_o perfect_a spherical_a figure_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o centre_n and_o the_o

aristotle_n who_o definition_n be_v in_o these_o matter_n general_o receive_v as_o full_o express_v the_o notion_n of_o mankind_n tell_v we_o and_o our_o own_o experience_n confirm_v it_o that_o we_o

be_v the_o nature_n of_o those_o that_o have_v a_o great_a proportion_n of_o density_n in_o respect_n of_o their_o gravity_n and_o thus_o out_o of_o the_o comparison_n of_o density_n with_o weight_n we_o have_v find_v two_o more_o quality_n than_o we_o yet_o have_v meet_v withal_o namely_o wettenesse_n and_o dryness_n for_o although_o a_o body_n be_v dense_a which_o of_o its_o own_o nature_n single_o consider_v will_v preserve_v the_o continuity_n of_o its_o part_n as_o make_v the_o body_n hardly_o divisible_a whereby_o it_o will_v be_v dry_a yet_o if_o the_o gravity_n that_o work_v upon_o it_o be_v in_o proportion_n great_a than_o the_o density_n it_o will_v sever_v the_o part_n of_o it_o and_o make_v they_o run_v to_o the_o centre_n and_o so_o become_v fluid_n and_o moist_a though_o not_o in_o the_o eminent_a degree_n that_o may_v be_v of_o fluidity_n and_o moisture_n by_o reason_n that_o if_o the_o like_a overproportion_n of_o gravity_n happen_v in_o a_o rare_a body_n it_o will_v there_o more_o powerful_o work_v its_o effect_n than_o it_o can_v in_o a_o dense_a body_n because_o a_o rare_a body_n will_v more_o easy_o obey_v and_o yield_v to_o the_o gravity_n that_o master_v it_o than_o a_o dense_n one_o will_n and_o consequent_o will_v be_v more_o fluid_n and_o moist_a than_o it_o now_o on_o the_o other_o side_n in_o weigh_v rarity_n against_o gravity_n if_o it_o happen_v that_o the_o rarity_n overcome_v the_o gravity_n body_n than_o the_o gravity_n will_v not_o change_v the_o figure_n of_o a_o body_n so_o proportion_v but_o what_o figure_n it_o have_v from_o its_o proper_a natural_a cause_n the_o same_o will_v still_o remain_v with_o it_o and_o consequent_o such_o a_o body_n will_v have_v term_n of_o its_o own_o and_o will_v not_o require_v a_o ambient_fw-la body_n to_o limit_n and_o circle_v it_o in_o which_o nature_n we_o call_v dry_a but_o if_o the_o proportion_n of_o the_o gravity_n be_v the_o great_a and_o do_v overcome_v the_o rarity_n then_o by_o how_o much_o the_o rarity_n be_v great_a so_o much_o the_o more_o will_v the_o gravity_n force_v it_o to_o apply_v itself_o equal_o and_o on_o all_o side_n to_o the_o centre_n and_o such_o a_o body_n will_v the_o more_o easy_o receive_v its_o figure_n from_o a_o other_o and_o will_v be_v less_o able_a to_o consist_v of_o itself_o which_o property_n we_o attribute_v to_o wettenesse_n or_o moisture_n so_o that_o it_o appear_v how_o the_o quality_n of_o wet_a and_o dry_a which_o first_o we_o find_v in_o thing_n that_o be_v dense_a be_v also_o common_a to_o that_o nature_n of_o body_n which_o we_o term_v rare_a and_o thus_o by_o our_o first_o inquiry_n after_o what_o kind_n of_o body_n do_v result_v out_o of_o the_o compound_v of_o rarity_n and_o density_n with_o gravity_n we_o discover_v four_o different_a sort_n some_o dense_a one_o that_o be_v dry_a and_o other_o likewise_o dense_a that_o be_v moist_a then_o again_o some_o rare_a one_o that_o be_v likewise_o moist_a and_o other_o rare_a one_o that_o be_v dry_a but_o we_o must_v not_o rest_v here_o let_v we_o proceed_v a_o little_a further_o to_o search_v what_o other_o property_n these_o four_o kind_n of_o body_n

they_o according_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o his_o matter_n discourse_n upon_o this_o last_o discourse_n do_v hang_v the_o principle_n which_o govern_v mechanike_n to_o wit_n that_o the_o force_n and_o

we_o have_v therefore_o three_o condition_n concur_v to_o make_v the_o motion_n more_o efficacious_a namely_o the_o density_n the_o sharpness_n and_o the_o bulk_n of_o the_o mooveable_a and_o more_o than_o these_o three_o we_o can_v not_o expect_v to_o find_v in_o a_o move_v body_n for_o quantity_n have_v but_o three_o determination_n one_o by_o density_n and_o rarity_n of_o which_o density_n

do_v the_o former_a of_o the_o increase_n itself_o in_o velocity_n because_o the_o reason_n of_o it_o be_v common_a to_o all_o motion_n which_o be_v that_o all_o motion_n as_o may_v appear_v out_o

that_o rate_n unless_o some_o other_o cause_n give_v yet_o a_o great_a impulse_n to_o the_o movable_a for_o velocity_n consist_v in_o this_o that_o the_o movable_a cut_v through_o more_o of_o the_o

and_o by_o little_a and_o little_o gain_v upon_o the_o foree_a of_o the_o agent_n so_o that_o the_o superproportion_n of_o the_o agent_n grow_v still_o lesser_a and_o lesser_a as_o the_o velocity_n increase_v and_o therefore_o at_o the_o length_n they_o must_v come_v to_o be_v balance_v and_o then_o the_o velocity_n can_v increase_v no_o more_o and_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o increase_n of_o

in_o which_o case_n if_o the_o stroke_n light_v perpendiculary_a upon_o it_o it_o will_v carry_v such_o a_o body_n before_o it_o but_o if_o the_o body_n be_v too_o great_a and_o have_v its_o part_n

an_o other_o argument_n of_o galileo_n be_v as_o bad_a as_o this_o when_o he_o endeavour_v to_o prove_v that_o all_o body_n go_v of_o a_o like_a velocity_n because_o it_o happen_v that_o a_o light_a

be_v manifest_a that_o in_o a_o violent_a motion_n the_o force_n which_o move_v a_o body_n in_o the_o end_n of_o its_o course_n be_v weak_a than_o that_o which_o move_v it_o in_o the_o beginning_n

that_o so_o then_o the_o stroke_n of_o the_o atom_n be_v more_o efficacious_a upon_o water_n then_o upon_o cork_n because_o the_o density_n of_o water_n be_v great_a than_o the_o density_n of_o cork_n consider_v the_o abundance_n of_o air_n that_o be_v harbour_v in_o the_o large_a pore_n of_o it_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o atom_n will_v make_v the_o water_n go_v down_o more_o forcible_o than_o

the_o iron_n must_v sink_v in_o the_o water_n and_o the_o cork_n will_v swim_v upon_o it_o and_o this_o same_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o if_o a_o piece_n of_o cork_n be_v hold_v by_o force_n at_o the_o

have_v more_o force_n upon_o the_o water_n then_o upon_o the_o cork_n they_o make_v the_o water_n sink_v and_o slide_v under_o it_o first_o a_o little_a thin_a plate_n of_o water_n and_o then_o a_o

than_o if_o a_o dense_a body_n do_v fall_n into_o such_o a_o current_n where_o these_o different_a motion_n give_v their_o several_a impulse_n it_o will_v be_v carry_v in_o such_o sort_n as_o we_o
