other_o man_n who_o adore_v the_o inextinguible_n fire_n who_o keep_v and_o preserve_v the_o same_o religious_o for_o the_o space_n of_o a_o infinite_a number_n of_o year_n one_o after_o another_o

be_v it_o not_o much_o better_a to_o ascribe_v the_o cause_n thereof_o unto_o some_o coldness_n or_o moisture_n of_o the_o air_n or_o rather_o contrariwise_o to_o some_o dryness_n and_o heat_n by_o reason_n whereof_o the_o fire_n in_o the_o lamp_n be_v enfeeble_v be_v not_o able_a to_o spend_v so_o much_o nutriment_n and_o therefore_o have_v no_o need_n thereof_o for_o i_o have_v hear_v it_o

without_o any_o great_a vehemency_n and_o vigour_n nay_o if_o a_o man_n kindle_v it_o against_o the_o sunshine_n the_o operation_n of_o it_o be_v less_o hardly_o catch_v it_o hold_v of_o the_o wood_n or_o fuel_n and_o more_o slow_o consume_v it_o the_o same_o but_o most_o of_o all_o a_o man_n may_v lay_v the_o cause_n upon_o the_o oil_n itself_o for_o it_o go_v not_o against_o reason_n to_o say_v that_o in_o old_a time_n the_o oil_n be_v of_o less_o nutriment_n and_o stand_v more_o upon_o the_o waterish_a substance_n than_o now_o it_o do_v as_o press_v out_o of_o olive_n which_o grow_v upon_o
