of_o the_o water_n of_o the_o sea_n in_o two_o great_a and_o notable_a respect_n the_o one_o be_v this_o as_o it_o be_v daily_o see_v in_o every_o place_n whereas_o it_o do_v ebb_v and_o flow_v that_o

whereas_o the_o opinion_n of_o some_o author_n be_v as_o aristotle_n &_o other_o that_o it_o be_v make_v salt_n by_o the_o power_n of_o the_o sun_n by_o the_o draw_n of_o the_o fine_a substance_n of_o

under_o or_o near_o the_o equinoctial_a for_o that_o the_o sun_n have_v a_o great_a force_n by_o the_o mean_n of_o the_o direction_n of_o the_o shadow_n of_o the_o sun_n whereby_o the_o sun_n shall_v

but_o a_o very_a glaunse_a shadow_n in_o june_n and_o in_o the_o winter_n part_n of_o the_o year_n the_o sun_n will_v not_o appear_v or_o rise_v unto_o they_o in_o the_o space_n of_o ten_o week_n and_o furthermore_o if_o the_o water_n of_o the_o sea_n be_v make_v salt_n only_o by_o the_o power_n of_o the_o sun_n than_o those_o sea_n must_v needs_o become_v fresh_a by_o another_o great_a
