azure_a have_v some_o affinity_n and_o relation_n to_o green_a as_o we_o find_v those_o that_o die_v green_a do_v first_o dip_v in_o blue_a yet_o green_a have_v more_o light_n and_o azure_a more_o

the_o smell_v hot_a and_o dry_a and_o for_o this_o be_v fish_v good_a for_o the_o eye_n because_o of_o the_o moist_a ambient_fw-la air_n by_o the_o river_n side_n the_o vapour_n of_o a_o onion_n will_v extract_v tear_n and_o not_o pepper_n and_o therefore_o not_o only_o because_o of_o its_o acrimony_n but_o because_o of_o the_o adjoin_v tenaciousnesse_n and_o viscosity_n in_o the_o vapour_n of_o the_o onion_n but_o whereas_o our_o author_n say_v it_o offend_v the_o eye_n and_o not_o other_o part_n he_o do_v not_o consider_v that_o though_o the_o eye_n because_o of_o its_o porosity_n
