more_o general_a observation_n of_o union_n and_o be_v but_o the_o appetite_n thereof_o make_v more_o observable_a through_o this_o more_o apparent_a motion_n towards_o union_n after_o separation_n for_o the_o common_a knowledge_n and_o observance_n of_o boldness_n as_o they_o be_v unite_v and_o keep_v close_o together_o as_o by_o so_o much_o more_o general_a than_o the_o motion_n of_o gravity_n as_o rest_v itself_o be_v more_o general_a than_o local_a motion_n for_o indeed_o what_o be_v usual_o call_v motion_n and_o rest_n be_v but_o these_o two_o but_o it_o be_v not_o so_o observable_a as_o

find_v both_o this_o constant_a practice_n of_o union_n or_o adhesion_n of_o body_n and_o also_o the_o cause_n thereof_o to_o be_v the_o general_a cause_n of_o all_o cause_n that_o be_v the_o will_n
