yet_o hereby_o they_o even_o deprive_v he_o of_o that_o true_a glory_n which_o god_n and_o scripture_n ascribe_v unto_o he_o and_o therefore_o as_o i_o promise_v and_o because_o it_o be_v so_o

on_o the_o earth_n now_o where_o the_o rule_n and_o dominion_n be_v there_o be_v also_o the_o motion_n and_o action_n whereby_o it_o be_v exercise_v and_o so_o thereby_o the_o planet_n be_v say_v to_o

hold_v a_o candle_n to_o the_o earth_n move_a about_o it_o and_o it_o be_v also_o say_v in_o the_o first_o day_n that_o god_n himself_o so_o divide_v the_o light_n from_o the_o darkness_n before_o sun_n or_o moon_n be_v make_v and_o thereby_o make_v day_n and_o night_n and_o as_o the_o sun_n do_v now_o divide_v the_o diurnal_a light_n from_o the_o nocturnal_a darkness_n by_o his_o light_n so_o do_v the_o moon_n divide_v the_o nocturnal_a darkness_n from_o the_o diurnal_a light_n by_o her_o light_n and_o so_o she_o be_v make_v to_o rule_v the_o night_n as_o well_o as_o the_o sun_n to_o rule_v the_o day_n which_o certain_o she_o do_v by_o her_o motion_n about_o the_o earth_n and_o therefore_o so_o do_v also_o the_o sun_n by_o his_o motion_n about_o the_o earth_n wherefore_o joshua_n who_o be_v the_o disciple_n and_o next_o successor_n of_o our_o divine_a philosopher_n moses_n say_v sun_n stand_v thou_o still_o upon_o gibeon_n and_o thou_o moon_n in_o the_o valley_n of_o ajalon_n which_o conjunction_n of_o sun_n and_o moon_n have_v be_v very_o incongruous_a if_o the_o sun_n do_v not_o move_v as_o well_o as_o the_o moon_n diurnaly_n as_o he_o do_v also_o annualy_a and_o she_o

or_o popular_o as_o they_o term_v it_o that_o be_v false_o whereas_o it_o be_v most_o absurd_a to_o conceiv_v he_o to_o speak_v both_o proper_o and_o popular_o true_o and_o false_o at_o the_o same_o time_n and_o in_o the_o same_o word_n and_o whereas_o they_o say_v this_o be_v only_o popular_a speak_v they_o thereby_o do_v acknowledge_v that_o mankind_n be_v ancient_o of_o this_o opinion_n before_o pythagoras_n leucippus_n and_o other_o grecian_a wit_n fancy_v the_o contrary_a and_o therefore_o propound_v it_o as_o their_o novel_a invention_n though_o i_o be_o not_o satisfy_v that_o they_o affirm_v any_o more_o than_o the_o diurnal_a motion_n of_o the_o earth_n about_o its_o own_o centre_n to_o save_v as_o they_o suppose_v the_o vast_a aether_n so_o great_a a_o labour_n but_o i_o conceiv_v that_o they_o allow_v the_o sun_n also_o to_o move_v annualy_n aswell_o as_o the_o moon_n menstrualy_n whereas_o our_o new_a philosopher_n who_o invention_n be_v only_a addition_n and_o their_o addition_n some_o great_a absurditys_n will_v move_v the_o earth_n not_o only_a diurnaly_n but_o also_o annualy_n which_o be_v both_o contrary_a to_o reason_n and_o sens_n as_o i_o shall_v

stand_v still_o and_o the_o moon_n stay_v and_o though_o it_o be_v true_a that_o the_o sun_n do_v not_o move_v diurnaly_n by_o his_o own_o planetary_a virtue_n as_o he_o do_v about_o his_o axis_n and_o annualy_n but_o be_v carry_v about_o by_o the_o diurnal_a motion_n of_o the_o aether_n which_o so_o move_v by_o its_o own_o planetary_a virtue_n as_o i_o have_v show_v yet_o even_o so_o the_o sun_n move_v together_o with_o the_o aether_n diurnaly_n for_o motion_n be_v as_o i_o say_v only_o a_o transition_n from_o place_n to_o place_n though_o the_o sun_n do_v not_o so_o change_v his_o place_n in_o the_o aether_n by_o the_o diurnal_a motion_n thereof_o yet_o he_o do_v in_o and_o with_o the_o aether_n thereby_o change_v his_o place_n in_o the_o whole_a body_n of_o the_o world_n and_o consequent_o move_v as_o rare_a body_n do_v move_v localy_a in_o ascend_v upward_o though_o they_o be_v move_v virtualy_n by_o the_o elevation_n of_o more_o den_n body_n as_o i_o have_v show_v and_o so_o also_o the_o sun_n and_o moon_n and_o star_n and_o aether_n itself_o stay_v in_o all_o their_o motion_n according_a to_o the_o context_n so_o the_o sun_n stand_v still_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o

and_o this_o opacity_n be_v a_o terrene_a quality_n whereunto_o the_o density_n thereof_o be_v assistant_n and_o so_o earth_n itself_o be_v most_o opacous_a and_o water_n less_o yet_o have_v some_o

have_v prove_v matter_n and_o spirit_n by_o their_o different_a accident_n to_o be_v several_a substantial_a principle_n and_o realy_a different_a one_o from_o another_o and_o though_o none_o can_v

that_o two_o such_o substance_n shall_v be_v consubstantiate_v into_o one_o since_o there_o be_v no_o matter_n without_o some_o spirit_n to_o diversify_v it_o and_o it_o be_v also_o grant_v that_o

though_o it_o affect_v polar_a rest_n yet_o have_v also_o a_o intrinsical_a motion_n of_o verticity_n in_o itself_o to_o restore_v it_o unto_o it_o nor_o can_v all_o the_o terreous_a qualitys_n be_v

in_o all_o the_o wisedam_n of_o the_o egyptian_n yet_o probable_o that_o be_v only_o such_o improvement_n of_o some_o human_a art_n and_o science_n as_o they_o and_o the_o chaldean_n and_o grecian_n and_o other_o heathen_n have_v make_v thereof_o and_o not_o that_o knowledge_n of_o these_o fundamental_a and_o more_o profound_a veritys_n which_o he_o deliver_v certain_o thales_n pythagoras_n

of_o a_o common_a language_n and_o so_o in_o scripture_n we_o read_v of_o no_o great_a action_n perform_v by_o those_o mighty_a builder_n in_o many_o year_n after_o and_o they_o be_v say_v to_o have_v
