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

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
