earth_n in_o that_o line_n it_o will_v be_v a_o adequate_a cause_n of_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o earth_n 6._o now_o astronomer_n teach_v that_o the_o earth_n continual_o turn_v about_o its_o own_o centre_n run_v under_o the_o zodiac_n its_o axis_n retain_v a_o certain_a inclination_n to_o the_o axis_n of_o the_o zodiac_n wherefore_o when_o we_o have_v find_v out_o a_o line_n in_o which_o the_o earth_n be_v thrust_v on_o will_v observe_v this_o motion_n the_o flux_n must_v be_v imagine_v to_o move_v the_o earth_n according_a to_o that_o 7._o astronomer_n prove_v these_o motion_n of_o the_o earth_n because_o otherwise_o great_a motion_n of_o great_a body_n must_v be_v suppose_v and_o those_o neither_o themselves_o constant_a nor_o proportion_v to_o the_o body_n and_o beside_o more_o entangle_v both_o in_o the_o star_n and_o in_o the_o sun_n itself_o as_o be_v apparent_a by_o its_o spot_n which_o if_o you_o say_v make_v not_o up_o a_o perfect_a astronomical_a demonstration_n that_o maxim_n must_v be_v renounce_v upon_o which_o all_o astronomy_n depend_v viz._n that_o the_o phenomena_n or_o appearance_n be_v to_o be_v solve_v the_o best_a way_n we_o can_v 8._o again_o because_o there_o follow_v a_o variety_n in_o the_o fix_a star_n from_o the_o diversity_n of_o the_o earth_n position_n in_o its_o orbis_n magnus_n when_o there_o be_v once_o find_v out_o a_o telescope_n of_o such_o perfection_n as_o to_o be_v able_a to_o distinguish_v that_o variety_n we_o may_v expect_v a_o geometrical_a demonstration_n and_o because_o for_o the_o same_o reason_n there_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o variety_n of_o reflection_n from_o mars_n and_o jupiter_n when_o the_o law_n &_o rule_n of_o light_n shall_v be_v better_o know_v there_o will_v not_o want_v a_o physical_a demonstration_n lesson_n xv._n of_o the_o opposition_n against_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o of_o its_o effect_n 1._o astronomer_n object_n that_o this_o annual_a transfer_v of_o the_o earth_n will_v cause_v a_o diversity_n of_o elevation_n in_o those_o star_n which_o be_v near_o the_o pole_n and_o a_o variety_n in_o the_o appear_a bigness_n of_o those_o in_o the_o zodiac_n which_o since_o we_o see_v not_o follow_v neither_o be_v there_o any_o such_o thing_n as_o this_o annual_a motion_n of_o the_o earth_n 2._o it_o be_v answer_v the_o vast_a remoteness_n of_o the_o fix_a star_n render_v such_o variation_n imperceptible_a and_o that_o their_o distance_n from_o we_o be_v sufficient_a to_o produce_v this_o effect_n may_v be_v collect_v from_o the_o effect_n it_o have_v upon_o a_o telescope_n which_o though_o it_o amplify_v so_o much_o the_o planet_n and_o even_a saturn_n himself_o yet_o add_v nothing_o or_o a_o insensible_a matter_n to_o the_o fix_a star_n 3._o out_o of_o this_o motion_n of_o the_o earth_n rise_v first_o the_o reason_n of_o night_n and_o day_n for_o since_o in_o a_o determinate_a time_n it_o be_v roll_a about_o its_o centre_n suppose_v in_o about_o 24_o hour_n the_o thing_n that_o be_v in_o the_o heaven_n must_v needs_o appear_v sometime_o and_o otherwhile_o disappear_v to_o a_o determine_a place_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o such_o a_o variety_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o sun_n make_v day_n and_o night_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o other_o star_n a_o variety_n not_o own_a by_o any_o common_a name_n 4._o again_o by_o its_o motion_n under_o the_o zodiac_n it_o attain_v various_a conjunction_n with_o the_o other_o planet_n 5._o last_o in_o that_o it_o carry_v its_o axis_n turn_v still_o towards_o the_o same_o part_n of_o the_o heaven_n it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o the_o part_n of_o the_o earth_n enlighten_v by_o the_o sun_n possess_v sometime_o great_a sometime_o lesser_a part_n of_o the_o parallel_n according_a to_o which_o the_o diurnal_a motion_n proceed_v and_o consequent_o that_o the_o day_n be_v long_o and_o short_a 6._o thence_o too_o be_v it_o that_o the_o sun_n become_v more_o perpendicular_a at_o one_o time_n then_o another_o whence_o the_o nature_n of_o winter_n and_o summer_n be_v deduce_v and_o the_o variety_n of_o declination_n descension_n and_o twilight_n 7._o but_o that_o the_o winter_n be_v short_a than_o the_o summer_n proceed_v from_o this_o that_o the_o motion_n through_o the_o inequality_n of_o the_o body_n raise_v up_o in_o the_o winter_n time_n be_v swift_a than_o in_o the_o summer_n 8._o a_o effect_n too_o of_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o earth_n be_v the_o carry_v of_o the_o water_n about_o with_o it_o but_o not_o the_o tide_n first_o because_o if_o the_o earth_n shall_v stand_v still_o the_o water_n will_v stand_v still_o withal_o 1._o since_o as_o we_o have_v say_v above_o there_o be_v no_o impetus_fw-la but_z from_o the_o gravity_n and_o such_o there_o will_v be_v none_o in_o the_o present_a case_n 9_o again_o there_o be_v no_o cause_n of_o the_o unequal_a motion_n of_o the_o water_n since_o there_o be_v the_o same_o quality_n continual_o in_o the_o movable_a and_o not_o by_o skip_n 10._o again_o if_o the_o whole_a water_n of_o the_o sea_n be_v so_o move_v it_o will_v drown_v the_o mountain_n last_o the_o period_n of_o the_o earth_n motion_n do_v not_o agree_v with_o those_o of_o the_o tide_n be_v 11._o but_o that_o the_o flux_n depend_v on_o a_o extrinsecall_a agent_n which_o impell_v only_o the_o superficies_n of_o the_o sea_n be_v most_o evident_a by_o the_o experiment_n of_o a_o late_a diver_n that_o discover_v there_o be_v no_o flux_n in_o the_o bottom_n of_o the_o sea_n lesson_n xvi_o of_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o air_n with_o the_o earth_n and_o its_o effect_n 1._o out_o of_o what_o have_v be_v say_v it_o be_v manifest_o infer_v that_o the_o air_n which_o cling_v to_o the_o earth_n be_v roll_a in_o the_o same_o manner_n about_o or_o rather_o with_o the_o earth_n for_o since_o both_o by_o the_o nature_n of_o quantity_n and_o the_o weight_n of_o its_o gravity_n it_o press_v towards_o the_o earth_n and_o stick_v to_o and_o incorporate_n with_o it_o it_o can_v without_o some_o great_a force_n interpose_v be_v separate_v from_o it_o since_o therefore_o in_o it_o there_o be_v no_o resistance_n against_o motion_n and_o only_o a_o resistance_n against_o be_v tear_v away_o from_o the_o air_n next_o it_o which_o take_v another_o course_n and_o this_o resistance_n be_v not_o great_a than_o that_o against_o be_v tear_v off_o from_o the_o air_n below_o and_o perhaps_o not_o so_o great_a since_o air_n be_v so_o much_o the_o light_a the_o high_o it_o be_v it_o be_v evident_a it_o will_v follow_v the_o earth_n wherefore_o to_o the_o very_a confine_n of_o the_o emanation_n of_o some_o star_n that_o have_v a_o different_a motion_n the_o whole_a air_n will_v be_v roll_a about_o with_o the_o earth_n 2._o and_o experience_n also_o prove_v it_o for_o else_o the_o twilight_n vapour_n comet_n and_o bird_n above_o the_o high_a mountain_n will_v seem_v hurry_v extreme_a swift_o towards_o the_o west_n again_o it_o be_v plain_a those_o cloud_n of_o dust_n which_o we_o call_v the_o sun_n spot_n fly_v along_o with_o the_o sun_n and_o that_o the_o same_o way_n as_o appear_v because_o the_o bright_a part_n be_v burn_v still_o the_o same_o way_n notwithstanding_o they_o be_v judge_v to_o be_v a_o hundred_o mile_n distant_a from_o the_o sun_n the_o vapour_n too_o of_o the_o moon_n be_v find_v to_o be_v carry_v about_o with_o the_o moon_n 3._o from_o this_o motion_n of_o the_o air_n it_o follow_v that_o body_n in_o the_o air_n itself_o be_v so_o move_v in_o respect_n to_o the_o part_n of_o the_o air_n and_o the_o earth_n as_o if_o there_o be_v no_o motion_n at_o all_o in_o neither_o they_o be_v carry_v still_o along_o together_o with_o the_o air_n itself_o as_o one_o in_o a_o ship_n under_o sail_n with_o a_o constant_a wind_n exercise_n the_o same_o motion_n and_o with_o the_o same_o facility_n in_o the_o ship_n as_o he_o can_v do_v if_o she_o stand_v still_o 4._o wherefore_o arrow_n shoot_v just_o upright_o will_v fall_v in_o the_o very_a same_o place_n or_o shoot_v towards_o the_o east_n they_o will_v fly_v no_o far_o then_o if_o shoot_v towards_o the_o west_n the_o motion_n of_o the_o earth_n will_v raise_v no_o wind_n etc._n etc._n this_o too_o will_v be_v certain_a that_o the_o air_n can_v be_v carry_v less_o than_o the_o earth_n as_o one_o that_o sit_v in_o a_o coach_n can_v rid_v less_o ground_n than_o the_o coach_n itself_o 5._o nor_o can_v all_o these_o be_v make_v good_a by_o a_o impetus_fw-la conceive_v upon_o the_o earth_n and_o remain_v in_o the_o movable_a after_o its_o separation_n from_o the_o earth_n for_o neither_o can_v bird_n retain_v that_o impetus_fw-la for_o many_o hour_n together_o at_o least_o without_o any_o notable_a diminution_n and_o less_o can_v little_o body_n for_o many_o day_n nor_o can_v that_o impetus_fw-la carry_v a_o
