mention_v the_o animal_n then_o in_o the_o planet_n must_v make_v use_n of_o one_o or_o more_o of_o these_o like_o our_o amphibious_a bird_n which_o can_v swim_v in_o water_n as_o well_o as_o walk_v on_o land_n or_o fly_v in_o the_o air_n or_o like_o our_o crocodile_n and_o sea-horse_n must_v be_v mongrel_n between_o land_n and_o water_n there_o can_v no_o other_o method_n be_v imagine_v but_o

there_o be_v so_o many_o way_n of_o its_o production_n as_o by_o the_o collection_n of_o the_o ray_n of_o the_o sun_n by_o the_o reflection_n of_o mirror_n by_o the_o strike_n of_o flint_n and_o

in_o jupiter_n ten_o or_o fifteen_o time_n large_a than_o elephant_n and_o as_o much_o long_o than_o our_o whale_n and_o then_o their_o man_n must_v be_v mere_a goliah_n in_o respect_n of_o our_o

nature_n have_v not_o always_o tie_v herself_o to_o those_o rule_n which_o we_o have_v think_v more_o convenient_a for_o she_o for_o example_n the_o magnitude_n of_o the_o planet_n be_v not_o
