between_o the_o mountain_n of_o these_o coast_n for_o the_o east_n side_n of_o those_o mountain_n be_v supply_v with_o rain_n enough_o as_o may_v be_v know_v by_o the_o great_a river_n that_o

to_o the_o equator_fw-la only_o we_o may_v probable_o conjecture_v that_o it_o be_v a_o rainy_a coast_n for_o most_o place_n lie_v near_o the_o line_n be_v very_o subject_a to_o rains_n yet_o some_o more_o than_o other_o and_o guinea_n may_v be_v reckon_v among_o the_o wette_v place_n in_o the_o world_n there_o may_v be_v place_n where_o the_o rain_n continue_v long_o but_o none_o be_v more_o

shall_v be_v subject_a to_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o rain_n because_o there_o be_v a_o great_a bite_v or_o bend_v in_o of_o the_o land_n a_o little_a to_o the_o north_n of_o the_o line_n and_o from_o
