A13217	Speculum mundi· Or A glasse representing the face of the world shewing both that it did begin, and must also end: the manner how, and time when, being largely examined. Whereunto is joyned an hexameron, or a serious discourse of the causes, continuance, and qualities of things in nature; occasioned as matter pertinent to the work done in the six dayes of the worlds creation.

the_o nature_n of_o the_o place_n over_o which_o it_o pass_v it_o may_v be_v alter_v of_o which_o i_o shall_v speak_v more_o afterward_o and_o beside_o all_o this_o the_o secret_a influence_n of_o

to_o the_o great_a preservation_n and_o refreshment_n of_o the_o distress_a in_o which_o regard_n it_o may_v be_v suppose_v that_o it_o be_v a_o immediate_a work_n of_o god_n wrought_v without_o the_o
