cause_n of_o sand_n and_o bank_n in_o the_o sea_n and_o river_n my_o opinion_n be_v this_o that_o whereas_o a_o great_a number_n of_o sand_n and_o bank_n be_v many_o time_n see_v at_o the_o mouth_n and_o entrance_n of_o many_o great_a river_n both_o into_o the_o sea_n and_o also_o up_o into_o the_o river_n that_o it_o happn_v by_o this_o mean_n by_o the_o shalownesse_n of_o those_o sea_n and_o the_o great_a indraft_n of_o the_o ryver_n and_o then_o by_o the_o mean_n of_o the_o soil_n of_o the_o country_n in_o the_o river_n be_v a_o good_a distance_n from_o the_o sea_n and_o especial_o after_o any_o great_a rain_n do_v bring_v down_o the_o soil_n for_o all_o the_o land_n water_n do_v always_o run_v down_o towards_o the_o sea_n where_o as_o it_o do_v ebb_v and_o flow_v and_o sometime_o the_o water_n overflow_v the_o bank_n and_o then_o the_o swiftness_n of_o the_o run_n of_o the_o water_n do_v fret_v away_o the_o bank_n and_o sometime_o it_o happen_v in_o the_o winter_n after_o a_o great_a frost_n and_o such_o other_o like_o cause_n sometime_o from_o sandye_v ground_n &_o sometime_o from_o clay_n ground_n &_o sometime_o stony_a ground_n &_o other_o good_a mould_n do_v fall_v into_o the_o ryver_n and_o so_o be_v mix_v and_o tumble_v too_o and_o fro_o with_o the_o water_n and_o be_v always_o carry_v towards_o the_o sea_n by_o the_o violence_n of_o the_o stream_n for_o that_o always_o where_o it_o do_v not_o ebb_n &_o flow_v the_o stream_n run_v towards_o the_o sea_n &_o whereas_o it_o do_v ebb_v &_o flow_v there_o the_o ebb_n do_v run_v both_o swift_a &_o long_o than_o the_o flood_n do_v &_o so_o by_o that_o mean_n it_o be_v always_o carry_v towards_o the_o sea_n &_o also_o any_o thing_n be_v apt_a to_o roll_v or_o run_v down_o the_o hill_n rather_o than_o against_o the_o hill_n and_o thus_o the_o soil_n of_o the_o country_n be_v tumble_v too_o &_o fro_o in_o the_o water_n be_v wash_v and_o soak_a in_o such_o sort_n that_o the_o water_n be_v make_v thick_a therewith_o and_o the_o fat_a or_o clammye_n substance_n become_v owe_v but_o the_o greety_a or_o sandy_a or_o gravel_o substance_n do_v always_o keep_v towards_o the_o bottom_n for_o that_o it_o be_v more_o ponderous_a or_o heavy_a than_o the_o fatty_a or_o clammy_a substance_n and_o then_o this_o gravel_o or_o sandye_v substance_n be_v dryven_v down_o towards_o the_o sea_n by_o the_o violence_n of_o the_o stream_n go_v by_o the_o bottom_n then_o where_o it_o do_v find_v any_o place_n to_o stay_v at_o by_o the_o way_n there_o it_o rest_v and_o so_o grow_v more_o and_o more_o and_o so_o become_v a_o sand_n and_o then_o the_o tide_n by_o the_o mean_n of_o ebb_a and_o flow_a do_v make_v or_o scour_v out_o a_o channel_n or_o pasadge_n between_o one_o sand_n or_o bank_n and_o another_o and_o always_o this_o happen_v whereas_o the_o sea_n be_v but_o shalowe_v and_o the_o ryver_n or_o haven_n have_v a_o great_a indraught_n that_o be_v to_o say_v to_o run_v a_o great_a

to_o run_v down_o the_o hill_n and_o then_o by_o the_o mean_n of_o the_o flood_n &_o the_o bellows_n of_o the_o sea_n do_v cause_v it_o to_o be_v stay_v although_o that_o sometime_o it_o happen_v

the_o greatness_n of_o the_o bellows_n of_o the_o sea_n do_v beat_v or_o wash_v away_o the_o sand_n from_o one_o place_n and_o so_o do_v rest_n upon_o another_o place_n and_o then_o the_o tide_n or_o

in_o water_n never_o so_o much_o yet_o notwithstanding_o it_o can_v be_v consume_v all_o away_o but_o if_o you_o do_v let_v it_o stand_v still_o than_o it_o
