multiplicaret_fw-la as_o our_o author_n be_v descend_v into_o the_o golden_a mine_n at_o cremnitz_n he_o find_v in_o one_o place_n the_o heat_n to_o increase_v as_o he_o descend_v more_o and_o more_o

the_o sun_n beam_n or_o by_o the_o manifest_a fire_n of_o burn_a hill_n as_o aetna_n and_o vesuvius_n and_o if_o it_o shall_v be_v object_v that_o this_o subterraneal_a heat_n be_v adventitious_a to_o

some_o include_v fire_n and_o if_o i_o misremember_v not_o he_o have_v this_o consideration_n that_o it_o be_v somewhat_o strange_a that_o nature_n shall_v have_v intend_v the_o earth_n for_o its_o

be_v the_o primum_fw-la frigidum_fw-la they_o mean_v not_o the_o elementary_a earth_n but_o some_o body_n that_o be_v mingle_v with_o it_o i_o shall_v desire_v to_o know_v which_o it_o be_v they_o

shall_v conclude_v against_o they_o that_o the_o earth_n itself_o have_v none_o since_o they_o grant_v a_o cold_a body_n than_o it_o and_o such_o a_o one_o as_o the_o earth_n must_v be_v behold_v to_o for_o the_o great_a degree_n of_o coldness_n it_o chance_v to_o possess_v 11._o but_o though_o i_o presume_v enough_o have_v be_v say_v to_o make_v it_o appear_v unlikely_a that_o the_o earth_n shall_v be_v the_o primum_fw-la frigidum_fw-la yet_o i_o must_v in_o this_o dissent_n from_o the_o learned_a gassendus_fw-la that_o he_o think_v the_o earth_n not_o only_o not_o to_o be_v the_o primum_fw-la frigidum_fw-la but_o not_o to_o be_v natural_o cold_a any_o more_o than_o hot_a for_o the_o insensible_a part_n of_o the_o earth_n like_o those_o of_o other_o firm_a body_n be_v heavy_a and_o perhaps_o gross_a and_o either_o have_v no_o constant_a motion_n at_o all_o or_o at_o least_o a_o far_o more_o remiss_a agitation_n then_o that_o of_o our_o sensory_n it_o seem_v to_o follow_v that_o the_o earth_n must_v seem_v cold_a to_o we_o unless_o it_o be_v by_o the_o communicate_v heat_n or_o motion_n of_o some_o extrinsic_a agent_n put_v into_o a_o degree_n of_o agitation_n that_o belong_v not_o to_o its_o nature_n and_o for_o the_o like_a reason_n i_o think_v it_o not_o improbable_a that_o pure_a earth_n shall_v in_o its_o own_o nature_n be_v cold_a than_o either_o pure_a water_n or_o pure_a air_n since_o the_o earth_n be_v a_o consistent_a body_n its_o component_a particle_n be_v at_o rest_n among_o themselves_o or_o at_o least_o move_v with_o a_o almost_o infinite_a

which_o be_v a_o state_n wherein_o the_o various_a agitation_n of_o the_o minute_n particle_n be_v more_o vehement_a 12._o and_o if_o those_o that_o plead_v for_o the_o earth_n have_v declare_v that_o

and_o will_v have_v earth_n in_o that_o sense_n not_o to_o be_v the_o primum_fw-la frigidum_fw-la but_o only_o the_o summum_fw-la frigidum_fw-la perhaps_o they_o may_v have_v a_o better_a plea_n for_o

ready_o diffuse_v in_o imperceptible_a particle_n through_o the_o air_n and_o i_o have_v observe_v upon_o the_o open_n of_o issue_n in_o some_o man_n arm_n that_o though_o no_o smoke_n be_v visible_a

we_o see_v how_o fast_o the_o water_n in_o pond_n and_o ditch_n waste_n and_o decrease_v in_o summer_n there_o be_v no_o cause_n to_o doubt_v but_o that_o it_o do_v then_o continual_o emit_v

because_o i_o know_v themistius_n will_v look_v upon_o a_o thing_n so_o disagreeable_a to_o the_o vulgar_a opinion_n of_o the_o coldness_n of_o the_o whole_a element_n of_o earth_n as_o a_o paradox_n i_o will_v take_v this_o opportunity_n to_o add_v a_o further_a confirmation_n to_o what_o i_o have_v be_v say_v 46._o and_o first_o that_o there_o arise_v copious_a and_o warm_a steam_n from_o the_o

most_o though_o not_o in_o all_o deep_a mine_n that_o they_o be_v oftentimes_o trouble_v and_o sometime_o endanger_v by_o sudden_a damp_n which_o do_v frequent_o so_o stuff_v up_o and_o thicken_v the_o subterraneal_a air_n that_o they_o make_v it_o not_o only_o unfit_a for_o respiration_n but_o able_a to_o extinguish_v the_o lamp_n and_o candle_n that_o the_o miner_n use_v to_o give_v they_o

not_o sometime_o actual_o take_v fire_n within_o the_o bowel_n of_o the_o earth_n i_o be_v answer_v that_o in_o some_o of_o their_o pit_n and_o particular_o in_o one_o that_o they_o show_v i_o though_o not_o in_o all_o they_o do_v insomuch_o that_o the_o exhalation_n sudden_o kindle_v will_v make_v a_o report_n at_o the_o mouth_n of_o the_o pit_n like_o a_o musket_n or_o a_o small_a piece_n

that_o his_o very_a notion_n of_o cold_a be_v not_o so_o accurate_o nor_o wary_o deliver_v i_o will_v not_o here_o urge_v that_o it_o may_v well_o be_v question_v whether_o the_o tend_v outward_o of_o

rather_o take_v notice_n that_o though_o mr._n hobbs_n tell_v we_o that_o to_o cool_v be_v to_o make_v the_o exterior_a part_n of_o the_o body_n endeavour_v inward_o yet_o our_o experiment_n tell_v

aetherial_a substance_n as_o his_o doctrine_n seem_v to_o suppose_v be_v necessary_a to_o the_o perception_n of_o cold_a since_o as_o the_o mind_n perceive_v divers_a other_o quality_n by_o various_a
