thereby_o do_v join_v and_o grow_v as_o it_o be_v into_o one_o stream_n whereas_o the_o near_a you_o come_v to_o the_o pole_n the_o more_o you_o will_v find_v they_o sever_v and_o each_o of_o they_o work_v by_o its_o own_o virtue_n and_o very_o near_o the_o point_n which_o cause_v the_o variation_n each_o stream_n work_v single_o by_o itself_o and_o therefore_o here_o the_o point_n of_o
