of_o the_o world_n which_o be_v contain_v within_o the_o hollow_a upper_a face_n of_o the_o moon_n orb_n and_o sphere_n in_o which_o be_v all_o corruptible_a body_n and_o thing_n harm_v by_o diverse_a

to_o conclude_v this_o element_n compass_v and_o enclose_v both_o the_o earth_n and_o water_n by_o his_o largeness_n the_o next_o element_n to_o the_o air_n which_o move_v be_v the_o water_n for_o

the_o moon_n by_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o first_o mover_n have_v pass_v about_o all_o the_o quarter_n of_o heaven_n also_o the_o water_n have_v a_o motion_n and_o that_o downward_o into_o the_o

that_o there_o be_v only_o four_o element_n be_v this_o that_o to_o each_o element_n the_o two_o first_o quality_n agree_v and_o the_o combynation_n the_o like_a of_o the_o four_o quality_n as_o of_o heat_n and_o dri_v which_o consist_v in_o the_o fire_n of_o moisture_n and_o heat_n which_o rest_n in_o the_o air_n of_o coldness_n and_o moisture_n which_o be_v in_o the_o water_n of_o dryness_n &_o coldness_n which_o be_v find_v in_o the_o earth_n by_o these_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o there_o be_v but_o four_o element_n of_o which_o heat_n exceed_v in_o the_o fire_n moisture_n in_o the_o air_n coldness_n in_o the_o water_n and_o dryness_n in_o the_o earth_n to_o conclude_v it_o appear_v that_o heat_n with_o cold_a and_o moisture_n with_o dri_v can_v apt_o be_v join_v what_o the_o star_n be_v and_o that_o as_o to_o the_o motion_n of_o their_o orb_n they_o be_v carry_v about_o the_o ethereal_a region_n contain_v the_o star_n which_o be_v the_o thick_a part_n of_o their_o orb_n perfect_a round_n clear_a most_o pure_a and_o simple_a and_o free_a of_o any_o mixture_n except_o the_o moor_n which_o be_v dark_a than_o the_o other_o yea_o variable_a and_o shadow_v and_o these_o

time_n and_o those_o continual_o agree_v in_o themselves_o that_o they_o may_v so_o engender_v the_o difference_n and_o order_n of_o time_n and_o in_o the_o inferior_a nature_n prepare_v and_o cause_v the_o first_o quality_n and_o other_o effect_n the_o sun_n the_o fountain_n of_o light_n do_v not_o only_o give_v light_n and_o make_v shine_v clear_a the_o inferior_a body_n but_o the_o superior_a also_o by_o the_o brightness_n and_o light_n of_o his_o beam_n but_o the_o star_n see_v with_o a_o borrow_a light_n they_o shine_v which_o be_v far_o weak_a than_o the_o sun_n therefore_o with_o that_o strange_a light_n which_o they_o take_v proper_o of_o the_o sun_n do_v they_o shine_v although_o unlike_a to_o the_o sun_n for_o into_o all_o the_o star_n which_o by_o nature_n be_v round_o about_o thin_a and_o penetrable_a be_v the_o sun_n light_n equal_o shed_v and_o pierce_v and_o so_o fill_v all_o that_o they_o be_v subject_a to_o no_o time_n of_o increase_a and_o decrease_v of_o

not_o equal_o nor_o round_o about_o receive_v the_o sun_n light_n so_o that_o the_o th'inner_n part_n take_v more_o of_o the_o sun_n light_n and_o of_o the_o same_o do_v clear_a shine_n but_o the_o lesser_a shadow_a part_n which_o also_o be_v see_v appear_v dark_a as_o the_o spot_n in_o the_o moon_n do_v show_v that_o the_o body_n of_o the_o star_n be_v round_o do_v the_o round_a form_n in_o

perfect_a round_o although_o the_o body_n of_o the_o star_n be_v know_v by_o sundry_a reason_n to_o be_v round_o as_o a_o bowl_n yet_o by_o their_o great_a distance_n from_o the_o earth_n appear_v to_o we_o as_o plain_v or_o flat_a nor_o the_o star_n be_v not_o move_v by_o their_o own_o proper_a motion_n but_o by_o the_o accydentary_a as_o unto_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o orb_n to_o which_o they_o hang_v as_o part_n unto_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o whole_a for_o to_o every_o round_a body_n do_v two_o proper_a motion_n only_o belong_v as_o a_o moan_v to_o and_o fro_o and_o turn_v about_o therefore_o the_o star_n see_v they_o be_v round_o be_v by_o some_o proper_a and_o principal_a motion_n carry_v round_o but_o the_o fix_a star_n be_v not_o so_o move_v round_o in_o that_o they_o turn_v about_o do_v not_o alter_v the_o same_o face_n or_o body_n which_o they_o once_o turn_v and_o show_v to_o we_o but_o that_o the_o same_o shall_v of_o necessity_n happen_v like_a be_v turn_v
