appear_v that_o there_o be_v matter_n in_o it_o cause_n to_o temper_v the_o violence_n of_o the_o heat_n to_o this_o i_o will_v add_v a_o other_o reason_n which_o deserve_v to_o be_v know_v not_o

why_o the_o nearness_n of_o the_o sun_n cause_v the_o rain_n under_o the_o burn_a zone_n and_o without_o when_o it_o be_v far_o off_o in_o my_o opinion_n the_o reason_n be_v that_o in_o winter_n without_o the_o tropic_n the_o sun_n have_v not_o force_v sufficient_a to_o consume_v the_o vapour_n which_o rise_v from_o the_o land_n and_o sea_n for_o these_o vapour_n grow_v in_o great_a abundance_n in_o the_o cold_a region_n of_o the_o air_n where_o they_o be_v congeal_v and_o thicken_v by_o the_o extremity_n of_o the_o cold_a and_o after_o be_v press_v they_o dissolve_v and_o turn_v into_o water_n therefore_o in_o winter_n when_o the_o sun_n be_v far_a off_o the_o day_n short_a and_o the_o night_n long_o his_o heat_n have_v small_a force_n but_o when_o the_o sun_n approach_v which_o be_v in_o the_o summer_n time_n his_o force_n be_v such_o as_o it_o draw_v up_o the_o vapour_n and_o sudden_o consume_v and_o disperse_v they_o for_o the_o heat_n and_o the_o length_n of_o the_o day_n grow_v through_o the_o nearness_n of_o the_o sun_n but_o within_o the_o tropic_n under_o the_o burn_a zone_n the_o far_a distance_n of_o the_o sun_n work_v the_o same_o effect_n that_o the_o nearness_n do_v without_o the_o tropic_n by_o reason_n whereof_o it_o rain_v no_o more_o under_o the_o burn_a zone_n when_o the_o sun_n be_v far_o off_o then_o without_o the_o tropic_n when_o it_o be_v near_a for_o that_o in_o this_o approach_n and_o retire_v the_o sun_n remain_v always_o in_o one_o distance_n whence_o proceed_v this_o effect_n of_o clearness_n but_o when_o the_o sun_n

as_o it_o seem_v there_o shall_v be_v but_o rather_o great_a and_o strange_a shower_n for_o that_o by_o this_o violent_a heat_n he_o draw_v up_o sudden_o a_o great_a abundance_n of_o vapour_n from_o the_o earth_n and_o ocean_n which_o be_v so_o thick_a as_o the_o wind_n not_o able_a easy_o to_o disperse_v they_o they_o melt_v into_o water_n which_o breed_v the_o cold_a rain_n in_o so_o great_a abundance_n for_o the_o excessive_a heat_n may_v soon_o draw_v up_o many_o vapour_n the_o which_o be_v not_o so_o soon_o dissolve_v and_o be_v gather_v together_o through_o their_o great_a abundance_n they_o melt_v and_o dissolve_v into_o water_n the_o which_o we_o may_v easy_o discern_v by_o this_o familiar_a example_n roast_v a_o piece_n of_o pork_n mutton_n or_o veal_n if_o the_o fire_n be_v violent_a and_o the_o meat_n near_o we_o see_v the_o fat_a melt_v sudden_o and_o drop_v away_o the_o reason_n be_v that_o the_o violent_a heat_n draw_v forth_o the_o humour_n and_o fat_a from_o the_o
