you_o with_o the_o supposition_n of_o the_o two_o terrestrial_a motion_n give_v a_o reason_n of_o the_o ebb_a and_o flow_v and_o then_o again_o argue_v circular_o from_o the_o ebb_a and_o flow_v draw_v the_o reason_n and_o confirmation_n of_o those_o very_a motion_n and_o so_o proceed_v to_o a_o more_o specious_a discourse_n you_o say_v that_o the_o water_n as_o be_v a_o fluid_a body_n and_o
