middle_a nature_n as_o betwixt_o water_n and_o air_n for_o by_o the_o rarifaction_n it_o be_v not_o so_o gross_a nor_o so_o wet_a as_o water_n nor_o rarefy_v so_o much_o as_o to_o be_v as_o thin_a

a_o reason_n for_o that_o for_o say_v she_o a_o dilatation_n cause_v heat_n and_o a_o contraction_n cause_v cold_a and_o say_v she_o if_o one_o breathe_v on_o the_o hand_n they_o open_v the_o mouth_n

that_o wind_n be_v make_v cold_a by_o contraction_n so_o much_o as_o to_o blow_v upon_o the_o hand_n which_o show_v that_o wind_n be_v contract_v air._n then_o they_o ask_v she_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n wind_n can_v blow_v out_o flame_n and_o in_o a_o flame_n it_o can_v kindle_v and_o put_v out_o fire_n she_o say_v that_o wind_n do_v strive_v to_o dissipate_v all_o thing_n it_o do_v encounter_v and_o where_o it_o have_v not_o so_o much_o power_n to_o dissipate_v it_o only_o dilatates_fw-la and_o when_o fire_n be_v set_v to_o any_o combustible_a matter_n as_o wood_n or_o the_o like_a the_o wind_n have_v not_o a_o forcible_a power_n to_o dissipate_v it_o into_o dust_n or_o ash_n it_o beat_v the_o heat_n of_o the_o fire_n into_o it_o and_o fire_n have_v a_o nature_n to_o

or_o at_o least_o to_o enter_v sudden_o the_o wind_n like_o a_o hammer_n strike_v they_o in_o and_o so_o lend_v the_o fire_n force_n and_o help_v the_o fire_n to_o extend_v by_o its_o dissipating-power_n dilatates_fw-la the_o heat_n into_o the_o smoke_n or_o vapour_n of_o the_o matter_n and_o so_o into_o a_o flame_n but_o when_o it_o put_v out_o fire_n or_o flame_n it_o be_v when_o

fire_n have_v nothing_o to_o work_v on_o for_o fire_n die_v when_o it_o have_v no_o fuel_n to_o work_v or_o feed_v on_o this_o be_v the_o reason_n a_o man_n with_o his_o breath_n can_v blow_v out_o the_o flame_n of_o a_o candle_n and_o with_o his_o breath_n blow_v the_o flame_n in_o again_o if_o the_o snuff_n of_o the_o candle_n be_v full_a and_o thorough_o fire_v or_o else_o he_o can_v but_o if_o it_o be_v full_a and_o thorough_o fire_v he_o may_v blow_v so_o hard_o as_o to_o dissipate_v the_o flame_n yet_o not_o so_o hard_a as_o to_o dissipate_v the_o fiery_a snuff_n or_o wieck_v of_o the_o candle_n so_o that_o the_o flame_n by_o the_o dissipate_v go_v out_o be_v dilatate_v to_o a_o dissipation_n and_o when_o the_o flame_n be_v out_o and_o the_o fire_n remain_v with_o a_o gentle_a
