the_o half_a of_o the_o moon_n which_o be_v enlighten_v be_v turn_v towards_o the_o sun_n and_o the_o obscure_a part_n towards_o the_o earth_n it_o be_v no_o wonder_n then_o that_o we_o can_v see_v that_o half_a which_o be_v dark_a but_o that_o same_o half_a of_o the_o moon_n which_o be_v in_o darkness_n be_v turn_v towards_o the_o enlighten_v half_a of_o the_o earth_n the_o inhabitant_n see_v we_o without_o be_v see_v and_o the_o earth_n appear_v to_o they_o as_o their_o fullmoon_n do_v to_o we_o and_o so_o if_o one_o may_v use_v the_o expression_n it_o be_v with_o they_o full-earth_n after_o this_o the_o moon_n go_v on_o in_o her_o monthly_a circle_n disengages_a herself_o from_o the_o sun_n and_o begin_v to_o turn_v towards_o we_o a_o part_n of_o she_o enlighten_v half_a which_o be_v the_o crescent_n at_o the_o very_a same_o time_n the_o darken_a half_a of_o the_o moon_n lose_v some_o share_n of_o the_o enlighten_v part_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o then_o the_o earth_n be_v in_o the_o wain_n as_o to_o its_o inhabitant_n say_v no_o more_o say_v the_o marquiese_n brisk_o i_o shall_v know_v all_o the_o rest_n when_o i_o please_v i_o need_v only_o think_v a_o little_a and_o follow_v the_o moon_n in_o her_o monthly_a circle_n i_o see_v in_o general_a that_o the_o inhabitant_n of_o the_o moon_n have_v their_o month_n the_o exact_a reverse_n of_o we_o and_o i_o be_o persuade_v when_o it_o be_v fullmoon_n the_o enlighten_v half_a of_o it_o be_v turn_v towards_o the_o obscure_a part_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o then_o they_o do_v not_o see_v we_o but_o a_o certain_a new_a earth_n i_o will_v not_o have_v any_o body_n reproach_v i_o with_o the_o want_n of_o so_o much_o sense_n as_o that_o you_o need_v explain_v so_o easy_a a_o thing_n to_o i_o but_o as_o to_o the_o

half_n be_v cast_v upon_o the_o earth_n if_o the_o moon_n be_v direct_o under_o the_o sun_n this_o shadow_n hide_v the_o sun_n from_o we_o and_o at_o the_o same_o time_n darken_v a_o part_n of_o the_o enlighten_v half_a of_o the_o earth_n which_o be_v see_v by_o the_o inhabitant_n of_o the_o obscure_a half_a of_o the_o moon_n and_o this_o be_v a_o eclipse_n of_o the_o sun_n to_o we_o in_o our_o day_n and_o a_o eclipse_n of_o the_o earth_n to_o those_o in_o the_o moon_n in_o their_o night_n when_o the_o moon_n be_v at_o the_o full_a the_o earth_n be_v betwixt_o she_o and_o the_o sun_n and_o all_o the_o obscure_a part_n of_o the_o earth_n be_v turn_v towards_o the_o enlighten_v half_a of_o the_o moon_n the_o shadow_n of_o the_o earth_n be_v then_o cast_v upon_o the_o moon_n and_o if_o it_o fall_v direct_o on_o her_o surface_n it_o obscure_v the_o enlighten_v half_o which_o we_o see_v and_o hide_v the_o sun_n from_o that_o enlighten_v part_n of_o the_o moon_n that_o enjoy_v the_o day_n this_o be_v a_o eclipse_n of_o the_o moon_n to_o we_o during_o our_o night_n and_o a_o eclipse_n of_o the_o sun_n to_o they_o during_o their_o day_n by_o this_o reason_n it_o fall_v out_o that_o there_o be_v not_o always_o eclipse_n when_o the_o moon_n interpose_v between_o the_o sun_n and_o the_o earth_n or_o the_o earth_n be_v interject_v between_o the_o sun_n and_o the_o moon_n because_o these_o three_o body_n be_v not_o opposite_a one_o to_o another_o in_o a_o straight_a line_n and_o by_o consequence_n that_o of_o the_o three_o which_o ought_v to_o make_v the_o eclipse_n cast_v its_o

that_o as_o they_o go_v to_o work_v will_v not_o find_v it_o out_o for_o age_n to_o come_v for_o all_o over_o the_o east-india_n the_o inhabitant_n believe_v that_o when_o the_o sun_n or_o moon_n be_v

they_o nay_o more_o i_o be_o apt_a to_o believe_v that_o as_o there_o have_v be_v and_o still_o be_v many_o inhabitant_n in_o our_o globe_n who_o be_v such_o fool_n to_o adore_v the_o moon_n there_o

of_o long_a telescope_n they_o tell_v we_o they_o have_v discover_v vast_a country_n sea_n lake_n high_a mountain_n and_o deep_a valley_n you_o surprise_v i_o say_v the_o marquiese_n i_o know_v very_o

great_a a_o matter_n as_o you_o imagine_v and_o the_o sun_n only_o be_v remarkable_a for_o that_o quality_n it_o be_v he_o alone_o that_o be_v enlighten_v of_o himself_o by_o virtue_n of_o his_o

that_o side_n of_o the_o moon_n which_o be_v turn_v towards_o the_o earth_n at_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o world_n have_v continue_v towards_o the_o earth_n ever_o since_o which_o still_o represent_v
