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

which_o other_o call_v prodigious_a rain_n as_o when_o worm_n frog_n fish_n wheat_n milk_n rain_n flesh_n blood_n wool_n stone_n iron_z earth_n etc._n etc._n fall_v from_o the_o cloud_n pliny_n make_v

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

second_o for_o the_o four_o angel_n stand_v upon_o the_o four_o corner_n of_o the_o earth_n to_o keep_v the_o wind_n from_o blow_v i_o marvel_v that_o it_o can_v be_v take_v so_o near_o a_o literal_a sense_n napeir_n in_o his_o comment_n upon_o the_o revelation_n confess_v that_o the_o jew_n indeed_o have_v certain_a book_n of_o antiquity_n divide_v the_o government_n of_o the_o earth_n among_o

therefore_o he_o understand_v by_o these_o four_o angel_n the_o good_a angel_n of_o god_n and_o the_o four_o wind_n he_o expound_v to_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o satan_n and_o executour_n of_o

in_o a_o day_n do_v sufficient_o show_v as_o it_o be_v elsewhere_o witness_v by_o another_o author_n that_o they_o be_v not_o immediate_o govern_v by_o any_o intellectual_a substance_n for_o in_o

that_o wind_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o flow_a and_o reflow_a or_o motion_n of_o the_o air_n have_v no_o other_o material_a substance_n than_o the_o very_a thin_a air_n itself_o to_o which_o it_o may_v be_v answer_v that_o this_o opinion_n although_o answer_n better_a than_o the_o former_a can_v float_v far_o before_o it_o sink_v and_o will_v therefore_o drown_v he_o in_o a_o error_n

it_o be_v condense_v into_o water_n all_o which_o be_v very_o idle_a for_o furthermore_o if_o the_o wind_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o air_n the_o motion_n of_o the_o air_n than_o it_o will_v necessary_o follow_v that_o all_o and_o every_o air_n move_v shall_v be_v wind_n but_o all_o and_o every_o move_v air_n be_v not_o wind_n therefore_o wind_n be_v more_o than_o the_o move_a air_n havenreuter_n in_o his_o comment_n upon_o aristotle_n meteor_n prove_v the_o assumption_n by_o this_o similitude_n even_o as_o every_o flow_a water_n say_v he_o although_o there_o be_v great_a
