for_o instance_n suppose_v the_o sun_n in_o hipparchus_n his_o time_n to_o have_v be_v at_o the_o height_n of_o o_o be_v then_o in_o his_o great_a declination_n from_o the_o equinoctial_a a_o b_o if_o

when_o the_o world_n shall_v be_v return_v again_o into_o a_o confusion_n or_o chaos_n so_o that_o you_o may_v observe_v as_o at_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o world_n the_o weighty_a element_n do_v gradual_o expel_v and_o at_o last_o overpower_v the_o light_a one_o so_o the_o light_a one_o do_v now_o gradual_o gain_v upon_o the_o weighty_a one_o and_o at_o last_o will_v again_o overpower_v they_o and_o so_o you_o have_v a_o description_n of_o the_o long_a year_n consist_v of_o 20_o thousand_o solar_a circuit_n gain_v near_o a_o degree_n every_o 68_o year_n but_o towards_o the_o latter_a
