press_v on_o the_o bladder_n the_o internal_a air_n not_o find_v the_o wont_a resistance_n first_o swell_v and_o distend_v the_o bladder_n and_o then_o break_v it_o with_o so_o wide_a and_o crooked_a a_o rent_n as_o if_o it_o have_v be_v forcible_o tear_v asunder_o with_o hand_n after_o which_o a_o second_o bladder_n be_v convey_v in_o the_o experiment_n be_v repeat_v with_o like_a success_n and_o i_o suppose_v it_o will_v not_o be_v imagine_v that_o in_o this_o case_n the_o bladder_n be_v break_v by_o its_o own_o fibre_n rather_o than_o by_o the_o imprison_v air._n and_o of_o this_o experiment_n these_o two_o phaenomena_n may_v be_v take_v notice_n of_o the_o one_o that_o the_o bladder_n at_o its_o break_n give_v a_o great_a report_n almost_o like_o a_o craker_n and_o the_o other_o that_o the_o air_n contain_v in_o the_o bladder_n have_v the_o power_n to_o break_v it_o with_o the_o mention_a impetuosity_n long_o before_o the_o ambient_fw-la air_n be_v all_o or_o near_o all_o draw_v out_o of_o the_o receiver_n but_o to_o verify_v what_o we_o say_v in_o another_o discourse_n where_o we_o show_v that_o even_o true_a experiment_n may_v by_o reason_n of_o the_o easy_a mistake_n of_o some_o unheeded_a circumstance_n be_v unsuccessful_o try_v we_o will_v advertise_v on_o this_o occasion_n that_o we_o do_v oftentimes_o in_o vain_a try_v the_o break_n of_o bladder_n after_o the_o manner_n abovementioned_a of_o which_o the_o cause_n appear_v to_o be_v this_o that_o the_o bladder_n we_o can_v not_o break_v have_v be_v bring_v we_o ready_a blow_v from_o those_o that_o sell_v they_o be_v grow_v dry_a before_o they_o come_v to_o our_o hand_n whence_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o if_o we_o afterward_o tie_v they_o very_o hard_o they_o be_v apt_a to_o fret_v and_o so_o become_v unserviceable_a and_o if_o we_o tie_v they_o but_o moderate_o hard_a their_o stiffness_n keep_v they_o from_o be_v close_v so_o exact_o but_o that_o when_o the_o include_v air_n have_v in_o the_o exhaust_a receiver_n distend_v they_o as_o much_o as_o easy_o it_o can_v it_o will_v in_o part_n get_v out_o between_o the_o little_a wrinkle_n of_o the_o sphincter_n of_o t●e_v neck_n whence_o also_o it_o usual_o happen_v that_o upon_o the_o let_n in_o the_o air_n from_o without_o the_o bladder_n appear_v more_o flaccid_a and_o empty_a then_o before_o they_o be_v put_v in_o whereas_o when_o the_o bladder_n be_v bring_v we_o moist_a from_o the_o butcher_n we_o can_v without_o injure_v they_o tie_v their_o neck_n so_o close_o that_o none_o of_o the_o air_n once_o blow_v in_o can_v get_v out_o of_o they_o but_o by_o violent_o break_v they_o it_o will_v not_o be_v amiss_o on_o this_o occasion_n to_o point_n at_o something_o which_o may_v deserve_v a_o more_o deliberate_a speculation_n than_o we_o can_v now_o afford_v it_o namely_o that_o the_o elastical_a power_n of_o the_o s●me_a quantity_n of_o air_n may_v be_v as_o well_o increase_v by_o the_o agitation_n of_o the_o aërial_a particle_n whether_o only_o move_v they_o more_o swift_o and_o scatter_v they_o or_o also_o extend_v or_o stretch_v they_o out_o i_o determine_v not_o within_o a_o every_o way_n enclose_v and_o yet_o yield_a body_n as_o display_v by_o the_o withdraw_n of_o the_o air_n that_o press_v it_o without_o for_o we_o find_v that_o a_o bladder_n but_o moderate_o fill_v with_o air_n and_o strong_o tie_v be_v a_o while_n hold_v near_o the_o fire_n not_o only_o grow_v exceed_v turgid_a and_o hard_a but_o afterward_o be_v approach_v near_o to_o the_o fire_n sudden_o break_v with_o so_o loud_a and_o vehement_a a_o noise_n as_o stony_v those_o that_o be_v by_o and_o make_v we_o for_o a_o while_n after_o almost_o deaf_a 6._o experiment_n 6._o have_v thus_o see_v that_o the_o air_n have_v a_o elastical_a power_n we_o be_v next_o desirous_a to_o know_v in_o some_o measure_n how_o far_o a_o parcel_n of_o air_n may_v by_o this_o its_o own_o spring_n be_v dilate_v and_o though_o we_o be_v not_o provide_v of_o instrument_n fit_a to_o measure_v the_o dilatation_n of_o the_o air_n any_o thing_n accurate_o yet_o because_o a_o imperfect_a measure_n of_o it_o be_v more_o desirable_a than_o none_o at_o all_o we_o devise_v the_o follow_a method_n as_o very_o easy_o practicable_a we_o take_v a_o limber_a lamb_n bladder_n which_o be_v thorough_o wet_v in_o fair_a water_n that_o the_o side_n of_o it_o be_v squeeze_v together_o there_o may_v be_v no_o air_n leave_v in_o its_o fold_n as_o indeed_o we_o can_v not_o afterward_o upon_o trial_n discern_v any_o the_o neck_n of_o this_o bladder_n be_v strong_o tie_v about_o that_o of_o a_o small_a glass_n capable_a of_o hold_v five_o full_a drachma_n of_o water_n the_o bladder_n be_v first_o so_o compress_v that_o all_o the_o include_v air_n be_v only_o in_o the_o glass_n without_o be_v press_v there_o then_o the_o pump_n be_v set_v a-work_o after_o a_o few_o exsuction_n the_o air_n in_o the_o little_a viol_n begin_v to_o dilate_v itself_o and_o produce_v a_o small_a tumour_n in_o the_o neck_n of_o the_o bladder_n and_o as_o the_o ambient_fw-la air_n be_v more_o and_o more_o draw_v away_o so_o the_o include_v air_n penetrate_v further_o and_o further_o into_o the_o bladder_n and_o by_o degree_n lift_v up_o the_o side_n and_o display_v its_o fold_n till_o at_o length_n it_o seem_v to_o have_v blow_v it_o up_o to_o its_o full_a extent_n whereupon_o the_o external_a air_n be_v permit_v to_o flow_v back_o into_o the_o reciver_n repulse_v the_o air_n that_o have_v fill_v the_o bladder_n into_o its_o former_a narrow_a receptacle_n and_o bring_v the_o bladder_n to_o be_v again_o flaccid_a and_o wrinkle_a as_o before_o then_o take_v out_o the_o bladder_n but_o without_o sever_n it_o from_o the_o glass_n we_o do_v by_o a_o hole_n make_v at_o the_o top_n of_o the_o bladder_n fill_v the_o vessel_n they_o both_o make_v up_o with_o water_n who_o weight_n be_v five_o ounce_n five_o drachma_n and_o a_o half_a five_o drachma_n whereof_o be_v abovementioned_a to_o be_v the_o content_n of_o the_o bottle_n so_o that_o in_o this_o experiment_n when_o the_o air_n have_v most_o extend_v the_o bladder_n it_o possess_v in_o all_o above_o nine_o time_n as_o much_o room_n as_o it_o do_v when_o it_o be_v put_v into_o the_o receiver_n and_o it_o will_v probable_o have_v much_o enlarge_v its_o bound_n but_o that_o the_o bladder_n by_o its_o weight_n and_o the_o stick_v together_o of_o its_o side_n do_v somewhat_o resist_v its_o expansion_n and_o which_o be_v more_o considerable_a the_o bladder_n appear_v tumid_a enough_o whilst_o yet_o a_o pretty_a deal_n of_o air_n be_v leave_v in_o the_o receiver_n who_o exsuction_n will_v according_a to_o our_o former_a observation_n probable_o have_v give_v way_n to_o a_o further_a expansion_n of_o the_o air_n especial_o suppose_v the_o dilatation_n not_o to_o be_v restrain_v by_o the_o bladder_n since_o we_o write_v the_o other_o day_n the_o former_a experiment_n we_o have_v meet_v with_o some_o glass_n not_o very_o unfit_a for_o our_o purpose_n by_o mean_n of_o which_o we_o be_v now_o able_a with_o a_o little_a more_o trouble_n to_o measure_v the_o expansion_n of_o the_o air_n a_o great_a deal_n more_o accurate_o than_o we_o can_v by_o the_o help_n of_o the_o abovementioned_a bladder_n which_o be_v much_o to_o narrow_a to_o allow_v the_o air_n its_o utmost_a distension_n we_o take_v then_o first_o a_o cylindrical_a pipe_n of_o glass_n who_o bore_n be_v about_o a_o quarter_n of_o a_o inch_n in_o diameter_n this_o pipe_n be_v so_o bend_v and_o double_v that_o notwithstanding_o its_o be_v about_o two_o foot_n in_o length_n it_o may_v have_v be_v shut_v up_o into_o a_o small_a receiver_n not_o a_o foot_n high_a but_o by_o misfortune_n it_o crack_v in_o the_o cool_a whereby_o we_o be_v reduce_v to_o make_v use_n of_o one_o part_v which_o be_v straight_o and_o entire_a but_o exceed_v not_o six_o or_o seven_o inch_n this_o little_a tube_n be_v open_a at_o one_o end_n and_o at_o the_o other_o where_o it_o be_v hermetical_o seal_v have_v a_o small_a glass_n bubble_n to_o receive_v the_o air_n who_o dilatation_n be_v to_o be_v measure_v along_o the_o side_n of_o this_o tube_n be_v past_v a_o straight_a narrow_a piece_n of_o parchment_n divide_v into_o twenty_o six_o equal_a part_n mark_v with_o black_a line_n and_o figure_n that_o by_o they_o may_v be_v measure_v both_o the_o include_v air_n and_o its_o dilatation_n afterward_o we_o fill_v the_o tube_n with_o water_n almost_o to_o the_o top_n and_o stop_v the_o open_a end_n with_o a_o finger_n and_o invert_v the_o tube_n the_o air_n be_v permit_v to_o ascend_v to_o the_o abovementioned_a glass_n bubble_n and_o by_o reason_n this_o ascent_n be_v very_o slow_a it_o give_v we_o the_o opportunity_n to_o mark_v how_o

so_o very_o slow_o in_o the_o pipe_n that_o their_o progress_n be_v scarce_o discernible_a which_o seem_v to_o proceed_v from_o this_o that_o their_o bigness_n be_v such_o that_o they_o can_v not_o sufficient_o extend_v themselves_o in_o the_o cavity_n of_o the_o glass_n without_o press_v on_o both_o hand_n against_o the_o side_n of_o it_o whereby_o they_o become_v of_o more_o difficult_a extrusion_n to_o the_o water_n and_o though_o it_o may_v seem_v strange_a these_o bubble_n shall_v be_v of_o any_o considerable_a bulk_n since_o it_o be_v like_a they_o consist_v of_o lesser_a parcel_n of_o the_o air_n lurk_v in_o the_o water_n than_o those_o that_o be_v vigorous_a enough_o to_o make_v their_o way_n through_o long_a before_o they_o yet_o they_o be_v common_o much_o large_a than_o before_o some_o of_o they_o be_v equal_a in_o quantity_n to_o four_o or_o five_o pea_n whether_o this_o their_o increase_n of_o bulk_n proceed_v from_o the_o great_a decrement_n of_o the_o pressure_n of_o the_o air_n or_o from_o the_o union_n of_o two_o or_o three_o of_o those_o numerous_a bubble_n which_o be_v then_o generate_v below_o the_o bottom_n of_o the_o pipe_n where_o we_o can_v not_o see_v what_o be_v do_v among_o they_o another_o thing_n we_o note_v in_o our_o bubble_n be_v that_o whereas_o in_o ordinary_a one_o the_o air_n together_o with_o the_o thin_a film_n of_o water_n that_o invest_v and_o detain_v be_v wont_a to_o swell_v above_o the_o surface_n of_o the_o water_n it_o swim_v on_o and_o common_o to_o constitute_v hemispherical_a body_n with_o it_o the_o little_a parcel_n of_o air_n that_o come_v up_o after_o the_o receiver_n be_v pretty_a well_o empty_v do_v not_o make_v protuberant_a bubble_n but_o such_o who_o upper_a surface_n be_v either_o level_n with_o or_o beneath_o that_o of_o the_o water_n so_o that_o the_o upper_a surface_n be_v usual_o somewhat_o convex_a the_o less_o protuberant_a part_n of_o it_o have_v a_o pretty_a quantity_n of_o water_n remain_v above_o they_o we_o also_o further_o observe_v that_o whereas_o in_o the_o bubble_n that_o first_o appear_v in_o the_o pipe_n the_o ascend_a air_n do_v as_o in_o other_o common_a bubble_n make_v its_o way_n upward_o by_o divide_v the_o water_n through_o which_o it_o pass_v in_o those_o bubble_n that_o appear_v at_o the_o latter_a end_n of_o our_o experiment_n when_o the_o pressure_n of_o the_o little_a external_a air_n remain_v in_o the_o receiver_n be_v grow_v inconsiderable_a the_o ascend_a parcel_n of_o air_n have_v now_o little_o more_o than_o the_o weight_n of_o the_o incumbent_a water_n to_o surmount_v be_v able_a both_o so_o to_o expand_v themselves_o as_o to_o fill_v up_o that_o part_n of_o the_o pipe_n which_o they_o pervade_v &_o by_o press_v every_o way_n against_o the_o side_n of_o it_o to_o lift_v upward_o with_o they_o what_o water_n they_o find_v above_o they_o without_o let_v any_o considerable_a quantity_n glide_v down_o along_o the_o side_n of_o the_o glass_n so_o that_o sometime_o we_o can_v see_v a_o bubble_n thrust_v on_o before_o it_o a_o whole_a cylinder_n of_o water_n of_o perhaps_o a_o inch_n high_a and_o carry_v it_o up_o to_o the_o top_n of_o the_o pipe_n though_o as_o we_o former_o note_v upon_o the_o let_n in_o the_o external_a air_n these_o tumid_a bubble_n sudden_o relapse_v to_o their_o former_a inconspicuousness_n all_o these_o thing_n lay_v together_o seem_v sufficient_o to_o confirm_v that_o which_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o thing_n itself_o will_v easy_o enough_o persuade_v namely_o that_o the_o air_n and_o such_o like_a body_n be_v under_o water_n may_v be_v press_v upon_o as_o well_o by_o the_o atmosphere_n as_o by_o the_o weight_n of_o the_o incumbent_a water_n itself_o hence_o likewise_o we_o may_v verify_v what_o we_o observe_v at_o the_o close_a of_o the_o forego_n experiment_n namely_o that_o from_o the_o sole_a swell_a of_o water_n there_o record_v it_o can_v be_v so_o safe_o conclude_v that_o water_n when_o free_v from_o compression_n be_v endow_v with_o a_o elastical_a power_n of_o expand_v itself_o since_o thereby_o it_o appear_v that_o the_o intumescence_n produce_v by_o that_o experiment_n may_v at_o least_o in_o great_a part_n be_v ascribe_v to_o the_o numerous_a little_a bubble_n which_o be_v wont_a to_o be_v produce_v in_o water_n from_o which_o the_o pressure_n of_o the_o atmosphere_n be_v in_o great_a measure_n take_v off_o so_o apt_a be_v we_o to_o be_v mislead_v even_o by_o experiment_n themselves_o into_o mistake_v when_o either_o we_o consider_v not_o that_o most_o effect_n may_v proceed_v from_o various_a cause_n or_o mind_n only_o those_o circumstance_n of_o our_o experiment_n which_o seem_v to_o comply_v with_o our_o preconceived_a hypothesis_n or_o conjecture_n and_o hence_o it_o seem_v also_o probable_a that_o in_o the_o pore_n or_o invisible_a little_a recess_n of_o water_n itself_o there_o lie_v common_o intersperse_v many_o parcel_n of_o either_o air_n or_o at_o least_o something_a analogous_n thereunto_o although_o so_o very_o small_a that_o they_o have_v not_o be_v hitherto_o so_o much_o as_o suspect_v to_o lurk_v there_o but_o if_o it_o be_v demand_v how_o it_o appear_v that_o there_o be_v intersperse_v through_o the_o body_n of_o water_n any_o substance_n thin_a than_o itself_o and_o why_o that_o which_o produce_v the_o bubble_n above_o mention_v shall_v not_o be_v resolute_o say_v to_o be_v nothing_o else_o then_o a_o more_o active_a and_o spirituous_a part_n of_o the_o water_n we_o shall_v in_o order_n to_o the_o elucidation_n of_o this_o matter_n subjoin_v to_o what_o be_v former_o deliver_v the_o follow_a experiment_n we_o recite_v in_o our_o nineteenth_o experiment_n 22._o experiment_n 22._o how_o by_o draw_v most_o of_o the_o air_n out_o of_o the_o receiver_n we_o make_v the_o water_n subside_o by_o degree_n in_o a_o glass_n not_o four_o foot_n long_o we_o shall_v now_o add_v that_o in_o the_o like_a experiment_n make_v in_o such_o a_o tube_n or_o a_o great_a it_o may_v be_v observe_v that_o when_o the_o water_n begin_v to_o fall_v there_o will_v

arise_v good_a number_n to_o the_o top_n of_o the_o water_n and_o there_o break_v and_o as_o the_o cylinder_n of_o water_n be_v bring_v to_o be_v low_a and_o low_o so_o the_o bubble_n will_v appear_v more_o numerous_a in_o that_o part_n of_o the_o tube_n which_o the_o water_n yet_o fill_v and_o the_o near_o the_o surface_n of_o the_o water_n in_o its_o descent_n approach_v to_o these_o bubble_n the_o great_a they_o will_v grow_v because_o have_v the_o less_o weight_n and_o pressure_n upon_o they_o the_o expansion_n of_o that_o air_n which_o make_v they_o can_v be_v the_o less_o resist_v by_o the_o pressure_n of_o the_o incumbent_a water_n and_o air_n as_o seem_v probable_a from_o hence_o that_o upon_o the_o let_n in_o a_o little_a external_a air_n those_o bubble_n immediate_o shrink_v it_o may_v indeed_o as_o we_o late_o intimate_v be_v conjecture_v that_o these_o bubble_n proceed_v not_o so_o much_o from_o any_o air_n pre-existent_a in_o the_o water_n and_o lurk_v in_o the_o

may_v generate_v such_o bubble_n and_o indeed_o i_o be_o not_o yet_o so_o well_o satisfy_v that_o bubble_n may_v not_o at_o least_o sometime_o have_v such_o a_o origination_n but_o that_o which_o
