of_o old_a men._n with_o more_o reason_n ought_v to_o be_v understand_v of_o old_a man_n because_o the_o fibre_n of_o their_o brain_n be_v still_o more_o inflexible_a and_o that_o for_o want_n of_o

these_o thing_n when_o they_o who_o be_v not_o extreme_o short_a sight_v behold_v the_o moon_n they_o see_v two_o eye_n a_o nose_n and_o a_o mouth_n in_o a_o word_n it_o seem_v to_o they_o as_o if_o

they_o consult_v the_o description_n which_o hevelius_n riccioli_n and_o other_o have_v publish_v now_o the_o reason_n why_o man_n general_o behold_v a_o face_n in_o the_o moon_n and_o not_o the_o

light_n of_o the_o moon_n imprint_n and_o enter_v into_o those_o trace_n to_o which_o the_o idea_n of_o a_o face_n be_v natural_o affix_v beside_o that_o the_o appear_v bigness_n of_o the_o moon_n not_o be_v much_o different_a from_o the_o largeness_n of_o a_o ordinary_a head_n at_o a_o certain_a distance_n the_o impression_n of_o it_o form_v those_o trace_n which_o have_v a_o great_a

some_o there_o be_v who_o see_v a_o man_n a_o horseback_n in_o the_o moon_n or_o any_o thing_n else_o which_o be_v not_o a_o face_n because_o their_o imagination_n have_v be_v strong_o affect_v by_o certain_a object_n the_o same_o trace_n be_v open_v by_o the_o least_o thing_n to_o which_o they_o have_v any_o relation_n for_o the_o same_o reason_n it_o be_v that_o we_o imagine_v we_o behold_v chariot_n man_n lion_n and_o other_o animal_n in_o the_o cloud_n when_o there_o be_v the_o least_o resemblance_n between_o those_o creature_n and_o their_o figure_n and_o that_o all_o man_n but_o
