upon_o the_o deluge_n as_o a_o much_o more_o considerable_a thing_n than_o these_o author_n will_v represent_v it_o and_o as_o a_o kind_n of_o dissolution_n of_o nature_n moses_n call_v it_o a_o destroy_n of_o the_o earth_n as_o well_o as_o of_o mankind_n and_o beneath_o he_o say_v st._n peter_n compare_v the_o conflagration_n with_o the_o deluge_n as_o two_o general_a dissolution_n of_o

to_o be_v gainsay_v that_o the_o deluge_n do_v not_o keep_v itself_o within_o the_o limit_n of_o any_o one_o region_n whatsoever_o and_o much_o more_o the_o author_n urge_v both_o in_o his_o english_a and_o latin_a copy_n to_o the_o same_o purpose_n and_o how_o all_o this_o can_v consist_v with_o a_o preservation_n of_o some_o remnant_n of_o man_n in_o every_o continent_n at_o the_o time_n of_o the_o deluge_n i_o must_v leave_v it_o to_o he_o to_o consider_v second_o according_a to_o the_o author_n own_o hypothesis_n when_o he_o say_v that_o the_o passage_n north_n and_o south_n be_v not_o
