which_o be_v consider_v and_o for_o other_o reason_n we_o can_v say_v that_o the_o moon_n be_v a_o world_n fill_v with_o inhabitant_n animal_n and_o plant_n as_o many_o ancient_a philosopher_n have_v

which_o cloud_n be_v it_o raise_v to_o the_o height_n of_o the_o moon_n and_o that_o it_o be_v as_o big_a it_o will_v shine_v in_o the_o night_n after_o the_o same_o manner_n add_v hereunto_o that_o the_o pillar_n of_o the_o cloud_n which_o conduct_v the_o israelite_n in_o the_o wilderness_n be_v a_o cloud_n by_o day_n and_o a_o pillar_n of_o fire_n by_o night_n we_o judge_v that_o all_o the_o star_n of_o heaven_n except_o the_o sun_n be_v of_o the_o same_o substance_n the_o moon_n be_v of_o it_o be_v moreover_o a_o great_a wonder_n that_o this_o nocturnal_a light_n appear_v unto_o we_o here_o below_o to_o have_v borrow_a the_o likeness_n of_o a_o woman_n face_n in_o her_o disque_n plutarch_n have_v write_v a_o treatise_n express_o wherein_o he_o say_v this_o figure_n of_o a_o human_a face_n be_v in_o the_o mouth_n and_o hand_n of_o all_o the_o world_n although_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o some_o of_o great_a wit_n and_o exquisite_a judgement_n do_v protest_v they_o do_v not_o perceive_v any_o image_n of_o a_o woman_n face_n in_o this_o planet_n but_o plutarch_n himself_o give_v a_o reason_n of_o this_o mistake_n say_v that_o it_o be_v because_o those_o people_n have_v the_o sight_n low_a and_o weak_a uncapable_a of_o well_o perceive_v the_o lineament_n of_o this_o face_n or_o rather_o it_o be_v because_o their_o thought_n be_v not_o intent_n upon_o the_o

most_o people_n in_o the_o world_n think_v they_o do_v beside_o let_v we_o observe_v this_o face_n in_o the_o moon_n with_o the_o telescope_n and_o let_v we_o consider_v it_o altogether_o and_o several_o than_o you_o will_v say_v this_o human_a face_n will_v no_o more_o be_v see_v but_o only_o certain_a irregular_a vapour_n without_o any_o order_n which_o have_v no_o likeness_n unto_o any_o

vaporous_a air_n which_o encompass_v all_o the_o superficies_n of_o the_o moon_n as_o round_o the_o earth_n there_o consist_v the_o like_a orb_n of_o vaporous_a and_o cloudy_a air_n which_o contain_v the_o first_o region_n of_o the_o air._n 2._o the_o telescope_n have_v far_a give_v we_o to_o understand_v a_o thing_n very_o surprise_v in_o the_o moon_n which_o be_v that_o in_o her_o eclipse_n when_o it_o be_v eclipse_v a_o finger_n breadth_n or_o two_o to_o the_o naked_a eye_n it_o be_v not_o at_o all_o eclipse_v if_o you_o look_v on_o it_o with_o the_o telescope_n and_o when_o it_o be_v

and_o wonderful_a to_o wit_n that_o although_o the_o moon_n be_v low_o near_o the_o horizon_n appear_v great_a unto_o the_o naked_a eye_n and_o be_v mount_v towards_o the_o zenith_n appear_v less_o
