of_o the_o zodiac_n about_o the_o equinoctial_a and_o three_o because_o the_o day_n be_v there_o equal_a with_o the_o night_n whereby_o the_o heat_n of_o the_o one_o be_v temper_v by_o the_o

the_o disposition_n of_o the_o air_n be_v temperate_a as_o well_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o commixture_n of_o the_o heat_n which_o be_v about_o the_o tropic_n and_o the_o cold_a which_o be_v about_o the_o polarie_a circle_n as_o because_o of_o the_o mean_a radiation_n of_o the_o sun_n that_o be_v to_o say_v neither_o too_o direct_a nor_o too_o oblique_a so_o then_o the_o middle_a zone_n
