whereas_o fire_n serve_v all_o the_o five_o sense_n &_o do_v they_o good_a for_o it_o be_v feel_v both_o near_a at_o hand_n and_o also_o see_v afar_o of_o so_o that_o among_o other_o mean_n that_o

impossible_a nay_o he_o can_v have_v his_o first_o generation_n without_o it_o and_o yet_o there_o be_v a_o difference_n in_o this_o kind_n as_o in_o all_o other_o thing_n the_o very_a sea_n itself_o be_v make_v more_o 〈◊〉_d by_o heat_n so_o as_o it_o do_v heat_n more_o by_o the_o agitation_n and_o current_n that_o it_o have_v than_o any_o other_o water_n for_o of_o itself_o otherwise_o it_o

they_o have_v plenty_n and_o store_n of_o natural_a heat_n within_o they_o so_o that_o in_o this_o very_a point_n the_o commodity_n of_o fire_n ought_v to_o be_v esteem_v the_o more_o and_o as_o for_o water_n it_o be_v never_o in_o that_o good_a state_n but_o some_o need_v it_o have_v of_o help_n without_o whereas_o the_o exellencie_n of_o fire_n be_v such_o as_o it_o be_v content_a with_o itself_o and_o require_v not_o the_o aid_n of_o the_o other_o like_a as_o therefore_o that_o captain_n be_v to_o be_v repute_v more_o excellent_a who_o know_v to_o order_n and_o furnish_v a_o city_n so_o as_o it_o have_v no_o need_n of_o foreign_a ally_n so_o we_o be_v to_o think_v that_o among_o element_n that_o be_v the_o worthy_a which_o may_v often_o time_n consist_v without_o the_o succour_n and_o aid_v of_o another_o and_o even_o as_o much_o may_v be_v say_v of_o live_a creature_n which_o have_v least_o need_n of_o other_o help_n and_o yet_o haply_o it_o may_v be_v reply_v contrariwise_o that_o the_o thing_n be_v more_o profitable_a which_o we_o use_v alone_o by_o itself_o namely_o when_o by_o discourse_n of_o reason_n we_o be_v able_a to_o choose_v the_o better_a for_o what_o be_v more_o commodious_a and_o profitable_a to_o man_n than_o reason_n and_o yet_o there_o be_v none_o at_o all_o in_o brute_n beast_n and_o what_o follow_v hereupon_o shall_v we_o infer_v therefore_o that_o it_o be_v less_o profitable_a as_o invent_v by_o the_o providence_n of_o a_o better_a nature_n which_o be_v god_n but_o since_o we_o be_v fall_v into_o this_o argument_n what_o be_v more_o profitable_a to_o man_n life_n than_o art_n but_o there_o be_v no_o art_n which_o fire_n devise_v not_o or_o at_o least_o wise_a do_v not_o maintain_v and_o hereupon_o it_o be_v that_o we_o make_v 〈◊〉_d the_o prince_n and_o master_n of_o all_o art_n furthermore_o whereas_o the_o time_n and_o space_n of_o life_n be_v very_o short_a that_o be_v give_v unto_o man_n as_o short_a as_o it_o be_v yet_o sleep_v as_o ariston_n say_v like_v unto_o a_o false_a bailie_n or_o publican_n take_v the_o half_a thereof_o for_o itself_o true_a it_o be_v that_o a_o man_n may_v lie_v awake_a and_o not_o sleep_v all_o night_n long_o but_o i_o may_v aswell_o say_v that_o his_o wake_n will_v serve_v he_o in_o small_a stead_n be_v it_o not_o that_o fire_n present_v unto_o he_o the_o commodity_n of_o the_o day_n and_o put_v a_o difference_n between_o the_o darkness_n of_o the_o night_n and_o the_o light_n of_o the_o day_n if_o then_o there_o be_v nothing_o more_o profitable_a unto_o man_n than_o life_n why_o shall_v we_o not_o judge_v fire_n to_o be_v the_o best_a thing_n in_o the_o world_n since_o it_o do_v augment_v and_o multiply_v our_o life_n over_o and_o beside_o that_o of_o which_o the_o five_o sense_n participate_v most_o be_v more_o profitable_a but_o evident_a it_o be_v that_o there_o be_v not_o one_o of_o the_o say_a sense_n make_v use_v of_o the_o nature_n of_o water_n
upon_o the_o land_n which_o have_v remain_v a_o long_a time_n among_o they_o and_o have_v pass_v by_o descent_n from_o father_n to_o son_n and_o by_o their_o forefather_n have_v be_v first_o bring_v

be_v it_o not_o much_o better_a to_o ascribe_v the_o cause_n thereof_o unto_o some_o coldness_n or_o moisture_n of_o the_o air_n or_o rather_o contrariwise_o to_o some_o dryness_n and_o heat_n by_o

without_o any_o great_a vehemency_n and_o vigour_n nay_o if_o a_o man_n kindle_v it_o against_o the_o sunshine_n the_o operation_n of_o it_o be_v less_o hardly_o catch_v it_o hold_v of_o the_o wood_n or_o fuel_n and_o more_o slow_o consume_v it_o the_o same_o but_o most_o of_o all_o a_o man_n may_v lay_v the_o cause_n upon_o the_o oil_n itself_o for_o it_o go_v not_o against_o reason_n to_o say_v that_o in_o old_a time_n the_o oil_n be_v of_o less_o nutriment_n and_o stand_v more_o upon_o the_o waterish_a substance_n than_o now_o it_o do_v as_o press_v out_o of_o olive_n which_o grow_v upon_o
