they_o be_v move_v be_v great_a than_o the_o distance_n of_o the_o great_a weight_n from_o the_o same_o point_n for_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o the_o weight_n which_o be_v more_o distant_a must_v be_v

when_o it_o be_v sink_v in_o a_o current_n of_o wind_n or_o water_n you_o must_v remember_v that_o the_o dense_a body_n itself_o have_v a_o particular_a virtue_n of_o its_o own_o namely_o its_o

soft_a and_o liquid_a body_n easy_o join_v and_o incorporate_v into_o difficult_o one_o continue_a body_n but_o hard_a and_o dry_a body_n so_o difficult_o as_o by_o experience_n we_o find_v to_o be_v

can_v touch_v one_o another_o without_o become_v one_o and_o that_o if_o two_o body_n of_o one_o degree_n of_o density_n do_v touch_v they_o must_v stick_v together_o according_a to_o the_o force_n of_o that_o degree_n of_o density_n out_o of_o which_o two_o be_v manifest_o infer_v that_o if_o two_o hard_a thing_n shall_v come_v to_o touch_v they_o must_v needs_o be_v more_o difficult_o

deduce_v this_o more_o particular_o let_v we_o consider_v that_o all_o the_o little_a surface_n by_o which_o one_o hard_a body_n may_v be_v conceive_v to_o touch_v another_o as_o for_o example_n when_o a_o stone_n lie_v upon_o a_o stone_n must_v of_o necessity_n be_v either_o plain_a or_o concave_a or_o convex_v now_o if_o a_o plain_a superficies_n shall_v be_v suppose_v to_o touch_v another_o plain_a one_o come_v perpendicular_o to_o it_o it_o must_v of_o necessity_n be_v grant_v to_o touch_v it_o as_o soon_o in_o the_o middle_a as_o on_o the_o side_n wherefore_o if_o there_o be_v any_o air_n as_o of_o necessity_n there_o must_v be_v betwixt_o the_o two_o surface_n before_o they_o touch_v it_o will_v follow_v that_o the_o air_n which_o be_v in_o the_o middle_n must_v have_v flee_v quite_o out_o from_o between_o the_o two_o surface_n as_o soon_o as_o any_o part_n of_o the_o surface_v touch_v that_o be_v as_o soon_o as_o the_o air_n which_o be_v between_o the_o utmost_a edge_n of_o the_o surface_n do_v fly_v out_o and_o by_o consequence_n it_o must_v have_v move_v in_o a_o instant_n but_o if_o a_o plain_a surface_n be_v say_v to_o touch_v a_o convex_a surface_n it_o touch_v it_o only_o by_o a_o line_n as_o mathematician_n demonstrate_v or_o a_o point_n but_o to_o touch_v by_o a_o line_n or_o a_o point_n be_v in_o truth_n not_o to_o touch_v by_o the_o form_n or_o motion_n of_o quantity_n which_o require_v divisibility_n in_o all_o that_o belong_v to_o it_o and_o by_o consequence_n among_o body_n it_o be_v not-to-touch_a and_o so_o one_o such_o surface_n do_v not_o touch_v the_o other_o now_o for_o a_o plain_a surface_n to_o touch_v a_o concave_n every_o man_n see_v be_v impossible_a likewise_o for_o two_o convex_a surface_n to_o touch_v one_o another_o they_o must_v be_v allow_v to_o touch_v either_o in_o a_o line_n or_o in_o a_o point_n which_o we_o have_v show_v not_o to_o be_v a_o physical_a touch_v and_o if_o a_o convex_a surface_n shall_v be_v say_v to_o touch_v a_o concave_n they_o must_v touch_v all_o at_o once_o as_o we_o say_v of_o plain_a surface_n and_o therefore_o the_o same_o impossibility_n will_v arise_v therein_o so_o that_o it_o be_v evident_a no_o two_o surface_n move_v perpendicular_o towards_o one_o another_o can_v come_v to_o touch_v one_o another_o if_o neither_o of_o they_o yield_v and_o

say_v that_o neither_o in_o this_o case_n do_v they_o touch_v immediate_o one_o another_o for_o as_o soon_o as_o the_o two_o first_o part_n shall_v meet_v if_o they_o do_v touch_v and_o there_o be_v no_o air_n between_o they_o they_o must_v present_o become_v one_o quantity_n or_o body_n as_o we_o have_v declare_v and_o must_v stick_v firm_o together_o according_a to_o their_o degree_n of_o

mundo_fw-la as_o we_o have_v former_o allege_v be_v demonstrate_v impossible_a there_o remain_v only_o a_o three_o way_n for_o two_o hard_a surface_n to_o come_v together_o which_o be_v that_o first_o they_o shall_v rest_v slope_v one_o upon_o another_o and_o make_v a_o angle_n where_o they_o meet_v as_o two_o line_n that_o cut_v one_o another_o do_v in_o the_o point_n of_o their_o intersection_n and_o so_o contain_v as_o it_o be_v a_o wedge_n of_o air_n between_o they_o which_o wedge_n they_o shall_v lessen_v by_o little_a and_o little_a through_o their_o move_n towards_o one_o another_o at_o their_o most_o distant_a edge_n while_o the_o touch_v edge_n be_v like_o immovable_a centre_n that_o the_o other_o turn_v upon_o till_o at_o length_n they_o shut_v out_o all_o the_o air_n and_o close_o together_o like_o the_o two_o leg_n of_o a_o compass_n but_o neither_o be_v it_o possible_a that_o this_o way_n they_o shall_v touch_v for_o after_o their_o first_o touch_n by_o one_o line_n which_o neither_o be_v in_o effect_n a_o touch_v as_o we_o have_v show_v no_o other_o part_n of_o they_o can_v touch_v though_o still_o they_o approach_v near_o and_o near_o till_o their_o whole_a surface_n entire_o touch_v at_o once_o and_o therefore_o the_o air_n must_v in_o this_o case_n leap_v out_o in_o a_o instant_n a_o great_a space_n then_o if_o the_o surface_n come_v perpendicular_o to_o one_o another_o for_o here_o it_o must_v fly_v from_o one_o extremity_n to_o the_o other_o whereas_o in_o the_o former_a case_n it_o be_v to_o go_v but_o from_o the_o middle_n to_o each_o side_n and_o thus_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o no_o two_o body_n can_v arrive_v to_o touch_v one_o another_o unless_o one_o of_o they_o at_o the_o least_o have_v a_o superficies_n pliable_a to_o the_o

to_o two_o such_o a_o liquid_a and_o a_o hard_a body_n be_v soon_o unite_v but_o two_o hard_a one_o most_o difficult_o to_o proceed_v then_o with_o our_o reflection_n upon_o the_o composition_n general_n of_o body_n and_o upon_o what_o result_v out_o of_o the_o join_n and_o mixture_n of_o their_o first_o difference_n rarity_n and_o density_n we_o see_v how_o if_o a_o liquid_a substance_n

we_o may_v conclude_v that_o if_o no_o other_o circumstance_n concur_v the_o effect_n arise_v out_o of_o they_o will_v likewise_o be_v common_a to_o all_o such_o and_o therefore_o where_o we_o find_v

at_o least_o in_o proportion_n to_o their_o nature_n but_o i_o conceive_v this_o be_v not_o the_o cause_n of_o the_o effect_n we_o inquire_v about_o but_o that_o it_o be_v a_o subtle_a spirit_n which_o have_v a_o great_a proportion_n of_o fire_n in_o it_o for_o as_o in_o rarefaction_n we_o find_v that_o fire_n which_o be_v either_o within_o or_o without_o the_o body_n to_o be_v rarify_v do_v

into_o a_o great_a which_o be_v the_o progress_n of_o rarefaction_n and_o hapen's_n in_o the_o motion_n of_o restitution_n the_o work_n must_v needs_o be_v do_v by_o the_o force_n of_o heat_n and_o

to_o drive_v the_o tree_n into_o its_o natural_a figure_n but_o as_o we_o see_v when_o a_o stick_n be_v break_v it_o be_v very_o hard_a to_o replace_v all_o the_o splinter_n every_o one_o in_o its_o

they_o and_o that_o steam_n climb_v up_o the_o enlarge_a one_o of_o both_o they_o together_o the_o three_o effect_n which_o the_o great_a loadstone_n work_v be_v that_o it_o make_v the_o steam_n of_o the_o little_a loadstone_n become_v strong_a by_o augment_v its_o innate_a virtue_n in_o some_o degree_n now_o then_o the_o go_v of_o the_o iron_n to_o either_o of_o the_o lodestone_n must_v follow_v the_o great_a and_o quick_a conjunction_n of_o the_o two_o meeting_n steam_n and_o not_o the_o greatness_n of_o one_o alone_a so_o that_o if_o the_o conjunction_n of_o the_o two_o steam_n between_o

will_v for_o the_o most_o part_n be_v less_o than_o the_o steam_n which_o go_v from_o the_o lesser_a loadstone_n
to_o the_o iron_n &_o though_o the_o other_o steam_n be_v never_o so_o great_a yet_o it_o can_v draw_v more_o than_o according_a to_o the_o proportion_n of_o its_o antagonist_n come_v from_o the_o

of_o light_n than_o another_o have_v we_o can_v but_o conceive_v that_o such_o difference_n in_o the_o superficies_n must_v needs_o beget_v variety_n of_o permanent_a colour_n in_o the_o body_n and_o

through_o which_o it_o pass_v in_o they_o therefore_o and_o in_o nothing_o else_o we_o be_v to_o make_v our_o enquiry_n to_o begin_v then_o we_o may_v observe_v that_o light_n pass_v through_o a_o

that_o general_o when_o light_n fall_v upon_o a_o body_n with_o so_o great_a a_o slope_v or_o inclination_n so_o much_o of_o it_o as_o get_v through_o must_v needs_o be_v weak_a and_o much_o diffuse_v it_o follow_v that_o the_o reason_n of_o such_o colour_n must_v necessary_o consist_v in_o this_o diffusion_n and_o weakness_n of_o light_n which_o the_o more_o it_o be_v diffuse_v the_o weak_a it_o grow_v and_o the_o more_o line_n of_o darkness_n be_v between_o the_o line_n of_o light_n and_o mingle_v themselves_o with_o they_o to_o confirm_v this_o you_o may_v observe_v how_o just_a at_o the_o

of_o the_o glass_n till_o remove_v it_o far_o off_o the_o colour_n begin_v to_o show_v themselves_o upon_o the_o edge_n thereby_o convince_a manifest_o that_o it_o be_v the_o excess_n of_o light_n which_o hinder_v they_o from_o appear_v at_o the_o first_o and_o in_o like_a manner_n if_o you_o put_v a_o burn_a glass_n between_o the_o light_n and_o the_o prism_n so_o as_o to_o multiply_v the_o light_n which_o go_v through_o the_o prism_n to_o the_o paper_n you_o destroy_v much_o of_o the_o colour_n by_o convert_v it_o into_o light_n but_o on_o the_o otherside_n if_o you_o thicken_v the_o air_n and_o make_v it_o dusky_a with_o smoke_n or_o dust_n you_o will_v plain_o see_v that_o where_o the_o light_n come_v through_o a_o convex_a glass_n perpendicular_o oppose_v to_o the_o illuminant_fw-la there_o will_v appear_v colour_n on_o the_o edge_n of_o the_o cones_fw-la that_o the_o light_n make_v and_o peradventure_o the_o whole_a cones_fw-la will_v appear_v colour_v if_o the_o darken_n be_v convenient_o make_v for_o if_o a_o opacous_a body_n be_v set_v within_o either_o of_o the_o cones_fw-la its_o side_n will_v appear_v colour_v though_o the_o air_n be_v but_o

thus_o you_o have_v the_o true_a and_o adequate_a cause_n of_o the_o appearance_n of_o such_o colour_n now_o to_o understand_v what_o colour_n and_o upon_o which_o side_n will_v prism_n appear_v we_o may_v consider_v that_o when_o light_n pass_v through_o a_o glass_n or_o other_o diaphanous_a body_n so_o much_o of_o it_o as_o shine_v in_o the_o air_n or_o upon_o some_o reflect_a body_n big_a than_o itself_o after_o its_o passage_n through_o the_o glass_n must_v of_o necessity_n have_v darkness_n on_o both_o side_n of_o it_o and_o so_o be_v comprise_v and_o limit_v by_o two_o darkness_n but_o if_o some_o opacous_a body_n less_o than_o the_o light_n be_v put_v in_o the_o way_n of_o the_o light_n than_o it_o may_v happen_v contrariwise_o that_o there_o be_v darkness_n or_o the_o shadow_n of_o that_o opacous_a body_n between_o two_o light_n again_o we_o must_v consider_v that_o when_o light_n fall_v so_o upon_o a_o prism_n as_o to_o make_v colour_n the_o two_o outward_a ray_n which_o proceed_v from_o the_o light_n to_o the_o two_o side_n of_o the_o superficies_n at_o which_o the_o light_n enter_v be_v so_o refract_v that_o at_o their_o come_n out_o again_o through_o the_o other_o superficies_n that_o ray_n which_o make_v the_o less_o angle_n with_o the_o outward_a superficies_n of_o the_o glass_n go_v in_o make_v the_o great_a angle_n with_o the_o outside_n of_o the_o other_o superficies_n come_v out_o and_o contrariwise_o that_o ray_n which_o make_v the_o great_a angle_n go_v in_o make_v the_o lesser_a at_o its_o come_n out_o and_o the_o two_o internal_a angle_n make_v by_o those_o two_o ray_n and_o the_o outside_n of_o the_o superficies_n they_o issue_v at_o be_v great_a than_o two_o right_a angle_n and_o so_o we_o see_v that_o the_o light_n dilate_v itself_o at_o its_o come_n out_o now_o because_o ray_n that_o issue_n through_o a_o superficies_n the_o near_o they_o be_v to_o be_v perpendicular_o to_o that_o superficies_n so_o much_o the_o thick_a they_o be_v it_o follow_v that_o this_o dilation_n of_o light_n at_o its_o come_n out_o of_o the_o glass_n must_v be_v make_v and_o increase_v from_o that_o side_n where_o the_o angle_n be_v least_o at_o the_o go_n in_o and_o great_a at_o the_o come_n out_o so_o that_o the_o near_a to_o the_o contrary_a side_n you_o take_v a_o part_n of_o light_n the_o thin_a the_o light_n must_v be_v there_o and_o contrariwise_o the_o thick_a it_o must_v be_v the_o near_a it_o be_v to_o the_o side_n where_o the_o angle_n at_o the_o ray_n come_v out_o be_v the_o great_a wherefore_o the_o strong_a light_n that_o be_v the_o place_n where_o the_o light_n be_v least_o mix_v with_o darkness_n must_v be_v near_a that_o side_n than_o the_o other_o consequent_o hereto_o if_o by_o a_o opacous_a body_n you_o make_v a_o shadow_n comprehend_v within_o this_o light_n that_o shadow_n must_v also_o have_v its_o strong_a part_n near_a to_o one_o of_o the_o light_n betwixt_o which_o it_o be_v comprise_v then_o to_o the_o other_o for_o shadow_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o want_n of_o light_n hinder_v by_o some_o opacous_a body_n it_o must_v of_o necessity_n lie_v averse_v from_o the_o illuminant_fw-la just_a as_o the_o light_n will_v have_v lie_v if_o it_o have_v not_o be_v hinder_v wherefore_o see_v that_o the_o strong_a side_n of_o light_n more_o impeache_n the_o darkness_n than_o the_o feeble_a

towards_o that_o side_n on_o which_o the_o shadow_n appear_v in_o respect_n of_o the_o opacous_a body_n or_o of_o the_o illuminant_fw-la and_o so_o be_v a_o cause_n of_o deepness_n of_o colour_n on_o

touch_v the_o sense_n and_o the_o sensible_a quality_n out_o of_o these_o ground_n we_o be_v to_o seek_v the_o resolution_n of_o all_o such_o symptom_n as_o appear_v to_o we_o in_o this_o kind_n of_o colour_n prism_n first_o therefore_o call_v to_o mind_n how_o we_o have_v already_o declare_v that_o the_o red_a colour_n be_v make_v by_o a_o great_a proportion_n of_o light_n mingle_v with_o darkness_n and_o the_o blue_a with_o a_o less_o proportion_n it_o must_v follow_v that_o when_o light_n pass_v through_o a_o glass_n in_o such_o sort_n as_o to_o make_v colour_n the_o mixture_n of_o the_o light_n and_o darkness_n on_o that_o side_n where_o the_o light_n be_v strong_a will_v incline_v to_o a_o red_a and_o their_o mixture_n on_o the_o otherside_n where_o the_o light_n be_v weak_a will_v make_v a_o violet_n or_o blue_a and_o this_o we_o see_v fall_v out_o according_o in_o the_o light_n which_o be_v tinct_a by_o go_v through_o a_o prism_n for_o a_o red_a colour_n appear_v on_o

next_o to_o trace_v out_o a_o eminent_a propriety_n of_o a_o separate_a soul_n namely_o that_o she_o be_v no_o where_o and_o yet_o upon_o the_o matter_n every_o where_o that_o she_o be_v bind_v to_o
