much_o for_o the_o form_n and_o figure_n of_o heaven_n p._n you_o say_v then_o that_o the_o heaven_n be_v most_o perfect_o round_o and_o not_o only_o that_o but_o you_o will_v have_v it_o also_o to_o

be_v true_a but_o because_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o fix_a star_n follow_v the_o motion_n of_o the_o nine_o sphere_n from_o west_n to_o east_n be_v so_o slow_a and_o so_o little_a that_o in_o a_o
