pass_v on_o the_o fifteen_o day_n of_o the_o moon_n age_n because_o that_o then_o she_o do_v opposite_o confront_v the_o sun_n another_o time_n the_o superior_a moiety_n be_v full_o illuminate_v to_o

the_o end_n of_o the_o moon_n and_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o month_n she_o have_v diverse_a illumination_n for_o from_o her_o conjunction_n with_o the_o sun_n the_o light_n in_o the_o upper_a

and_o the_o other_o which_o we_o see_v not_o become_v all_o shine_a and_o it_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o the_o horn_n of_o the_o moon_n which_o her_o diverse_a aspect_n show_v we_o turn_v their_o

moreover_o add_v to_o each_o day_n three_o quarter_n and_o the_o four_o and_o twentieth_o part_n of_o a_o hour_n begin_v from_o the_o second_o day_n till_o the_o time_n she_o make_v full_a moon_n

of_o they_o high_o than_o the_o moon_n be_v they_o seem_v to_o be_v lesser_a so_o in_o the_o same_o consideration_n it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o the_o brightness_n of_o the_o sun_n hinder_v we_o of_o the_o sight_n of_o the_o fix_a star_n in_o the_o day_n time_n which_o nevertheless_o shine_v as_o well_o in_o the_o day_n as_o in_o the_o night_n time_n as_o may_v be_v perceive_v at_o the_o

the_o earth_n moreover_o all_o these_o star_n be_v never_o eclipse_v for_o the_o shadow_n of_o the_o earth_n which_o cause_v the_o moon_n to_o loose_v her_o light_n reach_v not_o beyond_o her_o heaven_n and_o the_o night_n also_o be_v no_o other_o thing_n but_o the_o shadow_n of_o the_o earth_n which_o shadow_n be_v in_o form_n like_o a_o pyramid_n grow_v still_o less_o and_o less_o taperwise_o towards_o a_o point_n till_o at_o last_o it_o fade_v for_o all_o shadow_n wax_v less_o and_o less_o till_o they_o be_v clean_o diminish_v by_o distance_n as_o may_v evident_o be_v see_v by_o shadow_n of_o bird_n which_o fly_v in_o the_o air_n now_o the_o shadow_n of_o the_o earth_n finish_v in_o the_o air_n at_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o region_n of_o fire_n &_o above_o the_o moon_n all_o thing_n be_v pure_a wherefore_o it_o be_v not_o possible_a that_o the_o terrestrial_a shadow_n can_v hinder_v the_o brightness_n of_o the_o star_n which_o be_v above_o the_o moon_n and_o therefore_o likewise_o we_o behold_v they_o in_o the_o night_n time_n like_o a_o candle_n in_o a_o dark_a place_n but_o the_o shadow_n of_o the_o earth_n be_v the_o very_a cause_n that_o the_o moon_n be_v eclipse_v always_o by_o night_n month_n why_o the_o eclipse_n happen_v not_o every_o month_n and_o it_o be_v to_o be_v note_v in_o that_o that_o the_o eclipse_n both_o of_o the_o sun_n and_o moon_n happen_v not_o every_o month_n that_o it_o be_v by_o reason_n of_o the_o obliquenes_n of_o the_o zodiac_n and_o of_o the_o variable_a motion_n of_o the_o moon_n which_o be_v sometime_o north_n

the_o head_n or_o in_o the_o tail_n of_o the_o dragon_n we_o may_v note_v also_o that_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o shadow_n and_o eclipse_n aforesaid_a have_v teach_v man_n to_o judge_v of_o the_o greatness_n of_o the_o sun_n of_o the_o moon_n and_o of_o the_o earth_n earth_n how_o one_o may_v ●udg_v of_o the_o greatness_n of_o the_o sun_n the_o moon_n and_o the_o earth_n for_o first_o it_o shall_v be_v impossible_a that_o there_o have_v be_v any_o universal_a eclipse_n of_o the_o sun_n by_o the_o diametrall_a interposition_n of_o the_o moon_n if_o the_o earth_n be_v great_a than_o the_o moon_n again_o this_o planet_n and_o the_o shadow_n of_o the_o earth_n deliver_v unto_o we_o great_a certainty_n that_o the_o unmeasurable_a magnitude_n of_o the_o sun_n be_v much_o more_o

the_o eye_n or_o by_o conjecture_n since_o that_o the_o tree_n plant_v by_o the_o way_n side_n have_v all_o of_o they_o their_o shadow_n proportionable_o equal_a though_o there_o be_v much_o

in_o the_o equinoctiall-point_n over_o the_o southern_a climate_n and_o region_n he_o cast_v his_o light_n down_o right_a without_o make_v any_o shadow_n and_o yet_o in_o the_o north_n region_n on_o

not_o very_o much_o great_a than_o the_o earth_n but_o leave_v this_o discourse_n we_o must_v out_o of_o our_o speech_n learn_v some_o point_n of_o christian_a astrology_n now_o we_o have_v hear_v that_o the_o moon_n have_v no_o light_n of_o herself_o at_o least_o that_o can_v appear_v unto_o we_o but_o so_o much_o as_o she_o receive_v from_o the_o sun_n according_a to_o the_o disposition_n or_o opposition_n of_o their_o diverse_a course_n in_o such_o sort_n that_o the_o moon_n never_o persi_v in_o one_o estate_n but_o change_v incessant_o but_o it_o be_v not_o so_o with_o the_o sun_n for_o he_o have_v always_o as_o much_o light_n at_o one_o time_n as_o at_o another_o and_o be_v not_o subject_a to_o any_o change_n i_o say_v then_o that_o in_o he_o we_o have_v a_o goodly_a image_n
