of_o the_o stone_n shall_v draw_v the_o weak_a pole_n of_o the_o needle_n near_o unto_o itself_o then_o the_o weak_a pole_n of_o the_o stone_n can_v be_v able_a to_o draw_v the_o strong_a pole_n of_o the_o needle_n and_o by_o consequence_n that_o the_o needle_n shall_v not_o lie_v parallel_n to_o the_o axis_fw-la of_o the_o stone_n but_o shall_v incline_v somewhat_o to_o the_o strong_a pole_n of_o it_o for_o after_o you_o have_v well_o consider_v the_o matter_n you_o will_v find_v that_o the_o strength_n of_o the_o pole_n of_o the_o stone_n can_v not_o work_v according_a to_o its_o material_a

loadestone_n other_o the_o answer_n be_v because_o iron_n be_v indifferent_a in_o all_o its_o part_n to_o receive_v the_o impression_n of_o a_o loadestone_n whereas_o a_o other_o loadestone_n receive_v it_o only_o in_o a_o determinate_a part_n and_o therefore_o a_o loadestone_n draw_v iron_n more_o easy_o than_o it_o can_v a_o other_o loadestone_n because_o it_o find_v repugnance_n in_o the_o part_n of_o a_o other_o loadestone_n unless_o it_o be_v exact_o situate_v in_o a_o right_a position_n beside_o iron_n seem_v to_o be_v compare_v to_o a_o loadestone_n like_v as_o a_o more_o humid_a body_n to_o a_o dryer_n of_o the_o same_o nature_n and_o the_o difference_n of_o male_a and_o female_a sex_n in_o animal_n do_v manifest_o show_v the_o great_a appetence_n of_o conjunction_n between_o moisture_n and_o dryness_n when_o they_o belong_v to_o body_n of_o the_o same_o species_n an_o other_o question_n itself_o be_v that_o great_a one_o why_o a_o loadestone_n cap_v with_o steel_n take_v up_o more_o iron_n than_o it_o will_v do_v if_o it_o be_v without_o that_o cap_v an_o other_o conclusion_n like_a unto_o this_o be_v that_o if_o by_o a_o loadestone_n you_o take_v up_o a_o iron_n and_o by_o that_o iron_n a_o second_o iron_n and_o then_o you_o pull_v away_o the_o second_o iron_n the_o first_o iron_n in_o some_o position_n will_v leave_v the_o loadestone_n to_o stick_v unto_o the_o second_o iron_n as_o long_o as_o the_o second_o iron_n be_v within_o the_o sphere_n of_o the_o loadestone_n activity_n but_o if_o you_o remove_v the_o second_o out_o of_o that_o sphere_n than_o the_o first_o iron_n remain_v within_o it_o though_o the_o other_o be_v out_o of_o it_o will_v leave_v the_o second_o and_o leap_v back_o to_o the_o loadestone_n to_o the_o same_o purpose_n be_v this_o other_o conclusion_n that_o the_o great_a the_o iron_n be_v which_o be_v entire_o within_o the_o compass_n of_o the_o loadestone_n virtue_n the_o more_o strong_o the_o loadestone_n will_v be_v move_v unto_o it_o and_o the_o more_o forcible_o it_o will_v stick_v to_o it_o the_o reason_n of_o all_o these_o three_o we_o must_v give_v att_z once_o for_o they_o hang_v all_o upon_o one_o string_n and_o in_o my_o conceit_n neither_o gilbert_n nor_o galileo_n have_v hit_v upon_o the_o right_n as_o for_o gilbert_n he_o think_v that_o in_o iron_n there_o be_v original_o the_o virtue_n of_o the_o loadestone_n but_o that_o it_o be_v as_o it_o be_v a_o sleep_n until_o by_o the_o touch_n of_o the_o loadestone_n it_o be_v awake_v and_o set_v on_o work_n and_o therefore_o the_o virtue_n of_o both_o join_v together_o be_v great_a than_o the_o virtue_n of_o the_o loadestone_n alone_o but_o if_o this_o be_v the_o reason_n the_o virtue_n of_o the_o iron_n will_v be_v great_a in_o every_o regard_n and_o not_o only_o in_o stick_v or_o in_o take_v up_o whereas_o himself_o confess_v that_o a_o cap_a stone_n draw_v no_o further_o than_o a_o naked_a stone_n nor_o hardly_o so_o far_o beside_o it_o will_v continue_v its_o virtue_n out_o of_o the_o sphere_n of_o activity_n of_o the_o loadestone_n which_o it_o do_v not_o again_o see_v that_o if_o you_o compare_v they_o several_o the_o virtue_n of_o the_o loadestone_n be_v great_a than_o the_o virtue_n of_o the_o iron_n why_o shall_v not_o the_o middle_a iron_n stick_v close_o to_o the_o stone_n then_o to_o the_o further_a iron_n which_o must_v of_o necessity_n have_v less_o virtue_n refute_v galileo_n yield_v the_o cause_n of_o this_o effect_n that_o when_o a_o iron_n touch_v a_o iron_n there_o be_v more_o part_n which_o touch_v one_o a_o other_o then_o when_o a_o loadestone_n touch_v the_o iron_n both_o because_o the_o loadestone_n have_v general_o much_o impurity_n in_o it_o and_o therefore_o diverse_a part_n of_o it_o have_v no_o virtue_n whereas_o iron_n by_o be_v melt_v have_v all_o its_o part_n pure_a and_o second_o because_o iron_n can_v be_v smooth_v and_o polisk_v more_o than_o a_o loadestone_n can_v be_v and_o therefore_o its_o superficies_n touch_v in_o a_o manner_n with_o all_o its_o part_n whereas_o diverse_a part_n of_o the_o stone_n superficies_n can_v not_o touch_v by_o reason_n of_o its_o ruggedness_n and_o he_o confirm_v his_o opinion_n by_o experience_n for_o if_o you_o put_v the_o head_n of_o a_o needle_n to_o a_o barestone_n and_o the_o point_n of_o it_o to_o a_o iron_n and_o then_o pluck_v away_o the_o iron_n the_o needle_n will_v leave_v the_o iron_n and_o stick_v to_o the_o stone_n but_o if_o you_o turn_v the_o needle_n the_o other_o way_n it_o will_v leave_v the_o stone_n and_o stick_v to_o the_o iron_n out_o of_o which_o he_o infer_v that_o it_o be_v the_o multitude_n of_o part_n which_o cause_v the_o close_a and_o strong_a stick_v and_o it_o seem_v he_o find_v the_o same_o in_o the_o cap_v of_o his_o loadestone_n for_o he_o use_v flat_a iron_n for_o that_o purpose_n which_o by_o their_o whole_a plane_n do_v take_v up_o other_o iron_n whereas_o gilbert_n cap_v his_o with_o convexe_n iron_n which_o not_o apply_v

for_o such_o substance_n can_v not_o be_v subsistent_a without_o quantity_n and_o when_o we_o frame_v a_o notion_n of_o it_o as_o be_v indivisible_a it_o be_v a_o effect_n of_o the_o force_n of_o

for_o his_o word_n be_v true_a in_o the_o meaning_n he_o speak_v they_o but_o to_o show_v how_o thing_n be_v so_o much_o change_v by_o come_v into_o the_o understanding_n and_o into_o the_o soul_n that_o although_o on_o the_o one_o side_n they_o be_v the_o very_a same_o thing_n yet_o on_o the_o other_o side_n there_o remain_v no_o likeness_n at_o all_o between_o they_o in_o themselves_o as_o they_o be_v in_o the_o understade_n which_o be_v a_o most_o evident_a proof_n when_o the_o weight_n of_o it_o be_v due_o consider_v that_o the_o nature_n of_o our_o soul_n be_v main_o different_a
