in_o that_o part_n which_o be_v direct_o opposite_a to_o the_o sun_n and_o therefore_o in_o this_o our_o hemesphere_n because_o the_o sun_n never_o pass_v perpendicular_o over_o our_o zenith_n the_o earth_n can_v never_o be_v so_o lighten_v but_o that_o one_o side_n or_o other_o of_o it_o will_v be_v shadow_v which_o happen_v unto_o those_o part_n which_o lie_v direct_o under_o the_o

there_o be_v no_o shadow_n see_v unto_o the_o very_a foot_n whence_o the_o judicious_a in_o this_o art_n forbid_v we_o to_o give_v light_n in_o a_o picture_n unto_o all_o body_n after_o one_o and_o the_o self_n same_o manner_n but_o beside_o this_o consideration_n of_o the_o light_a illuminate_n and_o the_o earth_n with_o all_o earthly_a body_n lighten_v there_o be_v another_o more_o forcible_a reason_n draw_v from_o the_o ground_n of_o the_o mathematics_n viz._n from_o the_o visual_a line_n of_o perspective_n together_o with_o the_o eye_n for_o the_o better_a understanding_n whereof_o we_o must_v note_v that_o three_o thing_n concur_v to_o our_o sight_n the_o visual_a line_n the_o colour_a body_n and_o the_o faculty_n of_o see_v which_o be_v in_o our_o eye_n the_o visual_a line_n lighten_v which_o be_v the_o proper_a matter_n and_o subject_n of_o the_o perspective_n come_v to_o our_o eye_n in_o a_o pyramidal_a form_n the_o base_a of_o which_o pyramid_n rest_v in_o the_o object_n and_o the_o conus_fw-la or_o angle_v thereof_o come_v to_o our_o eye_n more_o blunt_a and_o obtuse_a and_o hereby_o we_o see_v the_o object_n more_o plain_o and_o distinct_o but_o if_o the_o object_n be_v afar_o off_o the_o conus_fw-la or_o angle_v of_o the_o pyramid_n come_v to_o the_o eye_n sharp_a and_o lesser_a and_o then_o our_o eye_n can_v discern_v it_o so_o clear_o as_o otherwise_o it_o will_v second_o it_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o the_o object_n come_v not_o to_o our_o eye_n but_o the_o visible_a species_n or_o shape_n be_v diffuse_v through_o the_o clearness_n of_o the_o air_n unto_o the_o eye_n which_o species_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o certain_a image_n like_v unto_o those_o which_o we_o see_v in_o a_o glass_n when_o a_o man_n or_o any_o thing_n else_o stand_v against_o it_o be_v represent_v therein_o and_o if_o the_o colour_a body_n or_o object_n stand_v near_o to_o this_o image_n it_o come_v to_o our_o eye_n in_o the_o same_o quantity_n and_o bigness_n of_o the_o angle_n of_o the_o pyramid_n now_o because_o this_o angle_n come_v to_o our_o eye_n in_o a_o obtuse_a and_o blunt_a form_n the_o image_n also_o seem_v great_a and_o so_o be_v discern_v more_o distinct_o but_o when_o the_o colour_a object_n stand_v afar_o off_o the_o image_n come_v to_o the_o eye_n in_o a_o very_a small_a and_o slender_a angle_n and_o therefore_o fill_v not_o the_o eye_n but_o waver_v in_o such_o sort_n that_o it_o can_v be_v clear_o and_o distinct_o discern_v as_o touch_v the_o three_o i_o have_v no_o more_o to_o say_v but_o that_o the_o faculty_n of_o see_v be_v reduce_v into_o art_n be_v form_v by_o the_o concur_v of_o the_o other_o two_o thing_n require_v before_o viz._n the_o visual_a line_n without_o which_o the_o eye_n can_v see_v and_o the_o image_n of_o the_o colour_a body_n which_o inform_v the_o eye_n by_o reduce_v it_o from_o mere_a ability_n into_o act_n and_o inform_v it_o more_o perfect_o with_o a_o great_a image_n by_o perform_v his_o operation_n better_a and_o cause_v the_o thing_n to_o be_v see_v more_o apparent_o and_o distinct_o whereas_o with_o the_o small_a image_n of_o a_o thing_n too_o far_o distant_a the_o eye_n can_v be_v so_o well_o inform_v and_o therefore_o it_o can_v see_v the_o thing_n perfect_o from_o which_o ground_n i_o draw_v these_o two_o reason_n why_o the_o self_n same_o body_n can_v be_v lighten_v equal_o in_o all_o place_n the_o first_o be_v because_o the_o light_n do_v not_o with_o all_o his_o brightness_n illuminate_v any_o more_o than_o that_o part_n which_o be_v direct_o opposite_a to_o it_o be_v not_o able_a to_o illustrate_v the_o other_o part_n so_o perfect_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o dark_a terrene_a and_o gross_a body_n which_o so_o hinder_v the_o beam_n that_o they_o can_v pierce_v inward_o and_o perform_v their_o effect_n perfect_o the_o second_o reason_n be_v take_v from_o the_o nature_n of_o our_o eye_n for_o as_o the_o first_o part_n of_o the_o body_n be_v see_v and_o place_v near_a the_o eye_n come_v unto_o it_o with_o a_o big_a angle_n so_o be_v it_o also_o see_v more_o distinct_o because_o it_o be_v more_o lighten_v but_o the_o second_o part_n thereof_o be_v far_a of_o come_v to_o the_o eye_n in_o a_o lesser_a angle_n and_o be_v less_o lighten_v be_v not_o so_o plain_o see_v as_o the_o first_o and_o by_o this_o rule_n the_o three_o part_n will_v be_v obscurer_n and_o so_o the_o four_o proportionable_o until_o the_o eye_n can_v see_v no_o far_o now_o if_o you_o ask_v i_o what_o the_o painter_n ought_v to_o do_v when_o he_o will_v paint_v two_o three_o or_o four_o man_n stand_v one_o behind_o another_o all_o of_o they_o equal_o
