happen_v in_o the_o motion_n of_o restitution_n the_o work_n must_v needs_o be_v do_v by_o the_o force_n of_o heat_n and_o because_o this_o effect_n proceed_v evident_o out_o of_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n in_o which_o it_o be_v wrought_v and_o not_o from_o any_o outward_a cause_n we_o may_v conclude_v it_o have_v its_o origine_fw-la from_o a_o heat_n that_o be_v within_o the_o thing_n

bend_v both_o every_o man_n conceit_n be_v and_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n make_v we_o believe_v that_o the_o force_n which_o bring_v the_o tree_n back_o again_o to_o its_o figure_n come_v from_o the_o inner_a side_n that_o be_v bend_v which_o be_v compress_v together_o as_o be_v shrink_v into_o a_o circular_a figure_n from_o a_o straight_a one_o for_o when_o solid_a body_n that_o be_v

be_v plain_a but_o the_o concave_n will_v be_v short_a and_o therefore_o we_o may_v conceive_v that_o the_o spirit_n which_o be_v in_o the_o contract_a part_n be_v there_o squeeze_v into_o less_o

rejoint_v whence_o it_o follow_v that_o as_o you_o see_v the_o splinter_n of_o a_o half_a break_a stick_n meet_v with_o one_o a_o other_o do_v hold_v the_o stick_n somewhat_o crooked_a so_o these_o

from_o a_o dryness_n peculiar_a to_o it_o that_o comprehend_v and_o fix_v the_o humidity_n of_o it_o for_o by_o the_o first_o they_o be_v render_v capable_a of_o be_v drive_v into_o any_o figure_n

because_o these_o two_o condition_n be_v common_a to_o all_o solid_a body_n we_o may_v conclude_v that_o if_o no_o other_o circumstance_n concur_v the_o effect_n arise_v out_o of_o they_o will_v

all_o upon_o one_o string_n and_o in_o my_o conceit_n neither_o gilbert_n nor_o galileo_n have_v hit_v upon_o the_o right_n as_o for_o gilbert_n he_o think_v that_o in_o iron_n there_o be_v original_o

the_o virtue_n of_o both_o join_v together_o be_v great_a than_o the_o virtue_n of_o the_o loadestone_n alone_o but_o if_o this_o be_v the_o reason_n the_o virtue_n of_o the_o iron_n will_v be_v

they_o several_o the_o virtue_n of_o the_o loadestone_n be_v great_a than_o the_o virtue_n of_o the_o iron_n why_o shall_v not_o the_o middle_a iron_n stick_v close_o to_o the_o stone_n then_o to_o the_o further_a iron_n which_o must_v of_o necessity_n have_v less_o virtue_n refute_v galileo_n yield_v the_o cause_n of_o this_o effect_n that_o when_o a_o iron_n touch_v a_o iron_n there_o be_v more_o part_n which_o touch_v one_o a_o other_o then_o when_o a_o loadestone_n touch_v the_o iron_n both_o because_o the_o loadestone_n have_v general_o much_o impurity_n in_o it_o and_o therefore_o diverse_a part_n of_o it_o have_v no_o virtue_n whereas_o iron_n by_o be_v melt_v have_v all_o its_o part_n pure_a and_o second_o because_o iron_n can_v be_v smooth_v and_o polisk_v more_o than_o a_o

a_o iron_n and_o then_o pluck_v away_o the_o iron_n the_o needle_n will_v leave_v the_o iron_n and_o stick_v to_o the_o stone_n but_o if_o you_o turn_v the_o needle_n the_o other_o way_n it_o will_v leave_v the_o stone_n and_o stick_v to_o the_o iron_n out_o of_o which_o he_o infer_v that_o it_o be_v the_o multitude_n of_o part_n which_o cause_v the_o close_a and_o strong_a stick_v and_o it_o

it_o be_v since_o no_o more_o virtue_n can_v go_v from_o one_o iron_n to_o the_o other_o then_o go_v from_o the_o loadestone_n to_o the_o first_o iron_n and_o if_o this_o virtue_n can_v not_o tie_v

be_v that_o it_o impregnate_v the_o iron_n and_o give_v
it_o a_o permanent_a virtue_n by_o which_o it_o work_v like_o a_o weak_a loadestone_n the_o second_o be_v that_o as_o it_o make_v the_o iron_n work_v towards_o the_o lesser_a loadestone_n by_o its_o

that_o both_o these_o steame_n do_v in_o company_n climb_v up_o the_o steam_n of_o the_o little_a loadestone_n which_o meet_v they_o and_o that_o steam_n clymb_v up_o the_o enlarge_a one_o of_o both_o they_o together_o the_o three_o effect_n which_o the_o great_a loadestone_n work_v be_v that_o it_o make_v the_o steam_n of_o the_o little_a loadestone_n become_v strong_a by_o augment_v its_o innate_a virtue_n in_o some_o degree_n now_o then_o the_o go_v of_o the_o iron_n to_o either_o of_o the_o loadestone_n must_v follow_v the_o great_a and_o quick_a conjunction_n of_o the_o two_o meeting_n steame_n and_o not_o the_o greatness_n of_o one_o alone_a so_o that_o if_o the_o conjunction_n of_o the_o two_o steame_n between_o the_o iron_n and_o the_o little_a loadestone_n be_v great_a and_o quick_a than_o the_o conjunction_n of_o the_o two_o steame_n which_o meet_v between_o the_o great_a loadestone_n and_o the_o iron_n the_o iron_n must_v stick_v to_o the_o lesser_a loadestone_n and_o this_o must_v happen_v more_o often_o then_o otherwise_o for_o the_o steam_n which_o go_v from_o the_o iron_n to_o the_o great_a loadestone_n will_v for_o the_o most_o part_n be_v less_o than_o the_o steam_n which_o go_v from_o the_o lesser_a loadestone_n to_o the_o iron_n and_o though_o the_o other_o steam_n be_v never_o so_o great_a yet_o it_o can_v not_o draw_v more_o than_o according_a to_o the_o proportion_n of_o its_o antagonist_n come_v from_o the_o iron_n wherefore_o see_v the_o two_o steame_n betwixt_o the_o iron_n and_o the_o little_a loadestone_n be_v more_o proportionable_a to_o one_o a_o other_o and_o the_o steam_n come_v out_o of_o the_o little_a loadestone_n be_v notable_o great_a than_o the_o steam_n go_v from_o the_o iron_n to_o the_o great_a loadestone_n the_o conjunction_n must_v be_v make_v for_o the_o most_o part_n to_o the_o little_a loadestone_n and_o if_o this_o discourse_n do_v not_o hold_v in_o the_o former_a part_n of_o the_o problem_n betwixt_o a_o second_o iron_n and_o a_o loadestone_n it_o be_v supply_v by_o the_o former_a reason_n which_o we_o give_v for_o that_o particular_a purpose_n the_o three_o case_n depend_v also_o of_o this_o

the_o aequator_fw-la the_o reason_n whereof_o be_v plain_a in_o our_o doctrine_n for_o consider_v that_o the_o magnetike_a virtue_n of_o the_o earth_n stream_v from_o the_o north_n towards_o the_o aequator_fw-la it_o follow_v of_o necessity_n that_o if_o there_o be_v two_o stream_n of_o magnetike_a fluour_n issue_v from_o the_o north_n one_o of_o they_o precise_o from_o the_o pole_n and_o the_o other_o from_o a_o part_n of_o the_o earth_n near_o the_o pole_n and_o that_o the_o stream_n come_v from_o the_o point_n by_o side_n the_o pole_n be_v but_o a_o little_a the_o strong_a of_o the_o two_o there_o will_v appear_v very_o little_a difference_n in_o their_o several_a operation_n after_o they_o have_v have_v a_o long_a space_n to_o mingle_v their_o emanation_n together_o which_o 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 variation_n must_v be_v master_n and_o will_v carry_v the_o needle_n strong_o unto_o his_o course_n from_o the_o due_a north_n if_o his_o stream_n be_v never_o so_o little_o more_o efficacious_a than_o the_o other_o again_o a_o line_n draw_v from_o a_o point_n of_o the_o earth_n wide_o of_o the_o pole_n to_o a_o point_n of_o the_o meridian_n near_o the_o aequator_fw-la make_v a_o less_o

that_o in_o the_o part_n near_o the_o aequator_fw-la the_o variation_n may_v proceed_v from_o some_o piece_n of_o land_n not_o much_o more_o northerly_a than_o where_o the_o needle_n be_v but_o that_o

loadestone_n proceed_v out_o of_o this_o that_o the_o sun_n work_v more_o upon_o the_o torride_a zone_n then_o upon_o the_o pole_n and_o that_o his_o too_o strong_a operation_n be_v contrary_a to_o the_o loadestone_n as_o be_v of_o the_o nature_n of_o fire_n it_o follow_v evident_o that_o the_o land_n of_o the_o torride_a zone_n can_v not_o be_v so_o magnetical_a general_o speak_v as_o the_o polar_n land_n be_v and_o by_o consequence_n that_o a_o lesser_a land_n near_o the_o pole_n will_v have_v a_o great_a effect_n than_o a_o large_a continent_n near_o the_o aequator_fw-la and_o

whether_o in_o the_o same_o part_n of_o the_o world_n a_o touch_v needle_n may_v at_o one_o time_n vary_v more_o from_o the_o true_a north_n point_n and_o at_o a_o other_o time_n less_o in_o which_o
