A57666	The new planet no planet, or, The earth no wandring star, except in the wandring heads of Galileans here out of the principles of divinity, philosophy, astronomy, reason, and sense, the earth's immobility is asserted : the true sense of Scripture in this point, cleared : the fathers and philosophers vindicated : divers theologicall and philosophicall points handled, and Copernicus his opinion, as erroneous, ridiculous, and impious, fully refuted / by Alexander Rosse ; in answer to a discourse, that the earth may be a planet.

nine_o argument_n which_o i_o urge_v in_o one_o chapter_n against_o your_o opinion_n but_o because_o i_o proceed_v say_v you_o with_o such_o scorn_n and_o triumph_n you_o will_v examine_v my_o boasting_n you_o do_v wise_o like_o the_o roman_n who_o that_o their_o general_n may_v not_o be_v puff_v up_o with_o the_o glory_n of_o their_o triumph_n cause_v some_o to_o walk_v along_o by_o their_o chariot_n use_v upbraid_a word_n the_o like_a do_v you_o call_v my_o argument_n cavil_v not_o worth_a the_o name_n yet_o you_o be_v please_v to_o name_v they_o to_o show_v doubtless_o their_o weakness_n and_o your_o wit_n my_o first_o cavil_n as_o you_o call_v it_o be_v this_o if_o the_o earth_n move_v it_o will_v be_v hot_a than_o the_o water_n because_o motion_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o heat_n but_o that_o the_o earth_n shall_v be_v hot_a than_o water_n be_v repugnant_a to_o that_o principal_a in_o natural_a philosophy_n which_o affirm_v the_o earth_n to_o be_v cold_a beside_o the_o water_n will_v never_o freeze_v if_o it_o be_v move_v as_o swift_o as_o the_o earth_n this_o argument_n because_o you_o can_v answer_v you_o pick_v as_o you_o think_v a_o contradiction_n out_o of_o it_o which_o be_v this_o the_o earth_n by_o motion_n be_v hot_a than_o the_o water_n and_o yet_o the_o water_n move_v along_o with_o it_o which_o water_n be_v make_v warm_a also_o by_o motion_n that_o it_o be_v not_o capable_a of_o congelation_n answ._n be_v this_o a_o contradiction_n think_v you_o the_o earth_n be_v hot_a than_o the_o water_n and_o yet_o the_o water_n be_v hot_a too_o the_o fire_n be_v hot_a than_o the_o air_n and_o yet_o the_o air_n be_v hot_a too_o who_o ever_o hear_v that_o the_o degree_n of_o comparison_n make_v a_o contradiction_n i_o shall_v not_o contradict_v myself_o if_o i_o shall_v say_v keplar_n be_v a_o cold_a disputant_n but_o you_o be_v a_o cold_a 2._o though_o i_o say_v that_o the_o water_n move_v along_o with_o the_o earth_n yet_o the_o earth_n may_v be_v hot_a than_o the_o water_n without_o any_o contradiction_n for_o of_o two_o body_n move_v together_o one_o may_v be_v hot_a than_o the_o other_o especial_o if_o they_o be_v of_o different_a nature_n who_o know_v not_o that_o dry_a and_o solid_a body_n such_o as_o the_o earth_n be_v be_v more_o capable_a intensive_o of_o heat_n then_o thin_a and_o moist_a body_n such_o as_o the_o water_n be_v 3._o though_o the_o earth_n water_n and_o air_n next_o to_o it_o be_v not_o sever_v one_o from_o another_o yet_o they_o be_v make_v hot_a by_o such_o a_o violent_a motion_n when_o you_o run_v your_o clothes_n skin_n flesh_n blood_n etc._n etc._n be_v not_o sever_v one_o from_o the_o other_o and_o yet_o your_o motion_n make_v they_o all_o hot_a 4._o if_o motion_n in_o fluid_a body_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o coldness_n as_o you_o say_v some_o do_v think_v than_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o the_o more_o you_o move_v your_o blood_n shall_v be_v the_o cold_a scaliger_n show_v that_o they_o who_o water_n their_o horse_n be_v hot_a use_v to_o stir_v the_o water_n violent_o that_o it_o may_v be_v bring_v to_o a_o warm_a temper_n that_o the_o horse_n may_v drink_v without_o danger_n 5._o i_o deny_v that_o all_o run_a water_n be_v the_o cold_a neither_o be_v they_o the_o cold_a because_o they_o run_v but_o because_o the_o meet_v still_o with_o fresh_a air_n so_o shall_v you_o in_o a_o cold_a day_n if_o you_o rise_v to_o walk_v be_v cold_o for_o a_o while_n then_o when_o you_o sit_v still_o not_o because_o you_o walk_v for_o that_o in_o time_n will_v warm_v you_o but_o because_o you_o meet_v with_o fresh_a air_n which_o you_o do_v not_o while_o you_o sit_v neither_o be_v there_o yet_o so_o much_o heat_n in_o you_o as_o to_o abate_v the_o sense_n of_o the_o cold_a air_n till_o your_o motion_n have_v cause_v it_o 6._o i_o deny_v that_o the_o strong_a wind_n be_v still_o the_o cold_a though_o they_o blow_v from_o the_o same_o coast_n at_o the_o same_o time_n of_o the_o year_n for_o i_o have_v observe_v that_o in_o one_o february_n a_o gentle_a easterly_a wound_n have_v bring_v snow_n and_o the_o next_o february_n a_o strong_a east_n wind_n have_v bring_v rain_n 7._o if_o rest_n be_v the_o cause_n that_o in_o cold_a weather_n water_n do_v freeze_v than_o all_o water_n that_o rest_n will_v freeze_v and_o no_o run_v water_n will_v freeze_v but_o this_o be_v false_a for_o some_o water_n rest_v do_v not_o freeze_v and_o sometime_o run_v water_n do_v freeze_v when_o the_o motion_n be_v not_o so_o strong_a as_o to_o stir_v up_o the_o heat_n therefore_o it_o remain_v that_o the_o heat_n cause_v by_o the_o motion_n and_o not_o the_o motion_n itself_o be_v the_o hindrance_n of_o the_o water_n freeze_v 8._o if_o this_o motion_n be_v true_a that_o the_o earth_n run_v four_o mile_n in_o a_o minute_n the_o heat_n of_o the_o air_n will_v be_v more_o than_o moderate_a even_o in_o winter_n you_o can_v not_o endure_v the_o heat_n of_o it_o we_o shall_v need_v no_o fire_n to_o warm_v we_o wood_n will_v be_v cheap_a enough_o 2._o my_o second_o argument_n be_v this_o if_o the_o earth_n do_v move_v the_o air_n than_o the_o air_n which_o be_v next_o to_o the_o earth_n will_v be_v pure_a as_o be_v more_o rarify_v but_o the_o contrary_n be_v true_a for_o the_o high_a the_o air_n be_v the_o pure_a it_o be_v you_o answer_v never_o a_o word_n to_o this_o argument_n which_o show_v you_o assent_n qui_fw-la tacet_fw-la consentire_fw-la videiur_fw-fr 3._o my_o three_o argument_n if_o the_o earth_n do_v move_v the_o air_n it_o will_v cause_v a_o sound_n but_o this_o be_v no_o more_o audible_a than_o the_o pythagorical_a harmony_n of_o heaven_n you_o answer_v that_o there_o be_v no_o reason_n why_o this_o motion_n shall_v cause_v a_o sound_n more_o than_o the_o suppose_a motion_n of_o the_o heaven_n but_o i_o say_v there_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o reason_n for_o if_o any_o solid_a body_n be_v it_o never_o so_o small_a though_o a_o arrow_n bullet_n or_o wand_n move_v the_o air_n cause_n a_o sound_n will_v not_o the_o vast_a body_n of_o the_o earth_n turn_v the_o air_n with_o that_o violence_n cause_n a_o hideous_a noise_n which_o will_v make_v we_o all_o deaf_a now_o there_o be_v no_o reason_n why_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o heaven_n shall_v make_v any_o sound_n for_o neither_o be_v they_o solid_a body_n themselves_o nor_o do_v they_o move_v or_o encounter_v any_o solid_a body_n nor_o be_v there_o any_o air_n in_o heaven_n which_o thing_n be_v require_v to_o make_v a_o sound_n 4._o i_o argue_v that_o nature_n have_v in_o vain_a endow_v the_o heaven_n with_o all_o condition_n requisite_a for_o motion_n if_o they_o be_v not_o to_o move_v for_o they_o have_v a_o round_a figure_n they_o have_v neither_o gravity_n nor_o levity_n they_o be_v incorruptible_a and_o they_o have_v no_o contrary_n this_o you_o say_v will_v prove_v the_o earth_n to_o move_v as_o well_o as_o the_o heaven_n for_o that_o have_v a_o round_a figure_n it_o be_v not_o heavy_a in_o its_o proper_a place_n and_o be_v consider_v as_o whole_a the_o other_o two_o condition_n you_o reject_v as_o be_v untrue_a and_o not_o conduce_v to_o motion_n answ._n though_o i_o shall_v grant_v you_o that_o the_o earth_n be_v round_o yet_o it_o be_v not_o so_o exact_o round_a and_o smooth_a as_o the_o heaven_n for_o it_o have_v many_o mountain_n and_o valley_n and_o some_o hill_n high_o some_o low_a be_v a_o globe_n or_o bowl_n that_o have_v knob_n and_o dent_n in_o it_o so_o fit_a for_o motion_n as_o that_o which_o be_v smooth_a and_o equal_o round_a 2._o i_o have_v show_v already_o the_o folly_n of_o that_o conceit_n which_o hold_v the_o whole_a earth_n not_o to_o be_v heavy_a in_o it_o be_v own_o place_n as_o if_o the_o element_n must_v loose_v their_o essential_a property_n be_v in_o their_o own_o place_n whereas_o it_o be_v the_o place_n that_o preserve_v the_o propertiese_n and_o essenc_n of_o thing_n have_v the_o fire_n and_o air_n lose_v their_o levity_n because_o they_o be_v in_o their_o own_o place_n and_o be_v it_o not_o absurd_a to_o say_v as_o i_o have_v already_o show_v that_o there_o shall_v be_v weight_n in_o a_o part_n of_o any_o thing_n and_o not_o in_o the_o whole_a as_o if_o a_o piece_n of_o a_o iron_n bullet_n be_v heavy_a but_o not_o the_o whole_a bullet_n you_o be_v as_o good_a say_v that_o totum_fw-la

subject_a to_o generation_n and_o corruption_n they_o be_v of_o the_o same_o nature_n with_o sublunary_a body_n and_o must_v

8.27_o why_o say_v you_o shall_v these_o be_v count_v sufficient_a expression_n to_o take_v away_o motion_n from_o the_o earth_n i_o answer_v we_o do_v not_o count_v this_o word_n establish_v of_o
