mention_v in_o the_o element_n of_o fire_n the_o essential_a property_n of_o this_o earth_n be_v ponderosity_n corporeity_n and_o transparency_n for_o you_o must_v know_v that_o this_o eternal_a earth_n be_v not_o like_o the_o outward_a elementary_a earth_n so_o gross_a and_o opacous_a but_o it_o be_v a_o transparent_a crystalline_a earth_n yet_o it_o give_v essentiality_n and_o corporeity_n to_o the_o three_o forementioned_a element_n and_o it_o be_v therefore_o create_v by_o god_n to_o make_v eternal_a nature_n essence_n substantial_a for_o fire_n water_n and_o air_n must_v have_v one_o

a_o harmony_n and_o equal_a temperament_n she_o do_v proportion_v they_o to_o a_o equality_n in_o number_n weight_n and_o measure_n three_o wisdom_n art_n appear_v in_o that_o be_v thus_o

and_o so_o of_o the_o rest_n four_o wisdom_n art_n appear_v in_o this_o that_o in_o the_o harmonize_a of_o these_o four_o eternal_a element_n she_o have_v make_v all_o their_o contrary_a property_n to_o be_v useful_a one_o to_o another_o the_o harsh_a darkness_n be_v serviceable_a to_o the_o meek_a light_n for_o darkness_n be_v the_o subject_n through_o which_o light_n display_v itself_o be_v there_o no_o darkness_n there_o will_v be_v no_o light_n the_o fierceness_n of_o the_o fire_n give_v strength_n to_o the_o meek_a water-essence_n and_o meekness_n of_o the_o water_n allay_v the_o

they_o a_o body_n to_o act_v and_o move_v in_o we_o may_v yet_o further_o consider_v the_o usefulness_n of_o the_o element_n to_o one_o another_o as_o they_o stand_v harmonize_v and_o temper_v together_o by_o the_o hand_n of_o wisdom_n the_o fire_n give_v life_n mobility_n and_o strength_n to_o the_o meek_a water_n and_o the_o water_n give_v food_n and_o nourishment_n to_o the_o fire●_n and_o thereby_o allay_v the_o fierce_a hunger_n of_o the_o fire_n so_o that_o darkness_n subsist_v in_o the_o light_n and_o the_o light_n in_o the_o darkness_n and_o satisfy_v the_o harsh_a bitter_a

in_o they_o since_o they_o all_o serve_v the_o will_n of_o their_o creator_n and_o be_v useful_a to_o one_o another_o the_o darkness_n be_v as_o useful_a as_o the_o light_n and_o the_o fire_n as_o the_o water_n and_o consequent_o they_o be_v all_o good_a their_o contrariety_n be_v harmonize_v and_o reconcile_v by_o the_o skilful_a hand_n of_o omnipotent_a wisdom_n five_o wisdom_n art_n appear_v in_o that_o in_o this_o temperature_n of_o the_o eternal_a element_n she_o make_v they_o qualify_v and_o serve_v one_o another_o in_o triumph_v joyfulness_n and_o to_o rejoice_v in_o each_o other_o be_v qualify_a for_o though_o these_o eternal_a element_n be_v not_o understand_v spirit_n yet_o they_o have_v a_o innate_a hunger_n in_o themselves_o which_o be_v their_o intrinsical_v form_n which_o make_v they_o desire_v each_o other_o thus_o the_o fire-essence_n hunger_n after_n the_o meekness_n of_o the_o water_n as_o its_o daily_a food_n wherewith_o its_o ravenous_a fierceness_n may_v be_v satisfy_v and_o allay_v and_o again_o the_o water_n hunger_n after_o the_o fire_n as_o its_o life_n strength_n and_o motion_n the_o astringent_a darkness_n hunger_n after_n the_o meek_a light_n and_o the_o light_n after_o the_o darkness_n that_o it_o may_v shine_v through_o it_o and_o subsist_v in_o it_o and_o from_o this_o inbred_a hunger_n it_o be_v that_o they_o rejoice_v to_o qualify_v one_o

wrestle_a wheel_n of_o nature_n for_o you_o must_v know_v that_o all_o these_o qualife_a power_n of_o nature_n have_v sensibility_n and_o mobility_n in_o themselves_o whereby_o they_o can_v feel_v and_o taste_v one_o another_o property_n and_o be_v sensible_a of_o the_o pleasure_n and_o satisfaction_n they_o receive_v one_o from_o another_o which_o continual_o awaken_v the_o hunger_n in_o every_o property_n to_o qualify_v one_o with_o another_o so_o the_o fire_n be_v sensible_a that_o the_o meek_a water_n do_v allay_v its_o fierceness_n and_o therefore_o it_o do_v hunger_n after_o it_o the_o anguish_a darkness_n be_v sensible_a that_o the_o amiable_a pleasantness_n of_o the_o light_n be_v a_o refreshment_n to_o it_o and_o thus_o each_o property_n feel_v and_o taste_n the_o other_o

this_o unsearchable_a art_n of_o the_o divine_a wisdom_n who_o alone_o can_v perform_v this_o masterpiece_n six_o wisdom_n art_n appear_v in_o nothing_o more_o than_o in_o the_o orderly_a place_n of_o
