conclude_v that_o the_o earth_n be_v at_o the_o centre_n without_o any_o motion_n but_o copernicus_n answer_v to_o these_o reason_n and_o infer_v on_o the_o motion_n of_o twenty_o four_o hour_n that_o though_o its_o very_a swift_a yet_o nevertheless_o it_o have_v its_o due_a proportion_n and_o may_v be_v resemble_v to_o a_o rest_n as_o those_o who_o be_v in_o a_o boat_n sit_fw-la at_o their_o ease_n though_o the_o boat_n swift_o move_v which_o be_v also_o more_o evident_a in_o a_o pale_a full_a of_o water_n which_o may_v be_v turn_v about_o in_o the_o air_n four_o or_o five_o time_n without_o spill_v a_o drop_n yet_o nevertheless_o this_o answer_n which_o he_o hold_v forth_o be_v to_o little_a purpose_n since_o that_o if_o the_o earth_n shall_v perform_v its_o course_n in_o twenty_o four_o hour_n and_o that_o have_v eight_o thousand_o league_n of_o circuit_n to_o accomplish_v it_o must_v then_o make_v five_o or_o six_o league_n in_o a_o minute_n of_o a_o hour_n and_o if_o a_o stone_n be_v cast_v up_o into_o the_o air_n shall_v remain_v a_o minute_n of_o a_o hour_n in_o its_o ascent_n or_o descent_n it_o will_v then_o fall_v five_o or_o six_o league_n beyond_o the_o place_n from_o whence_o it_o be_v fling_v which_o have_v never_o be_v see_v nor_o hear_v of_o nevertheless_o he_o answer_v to_o this_o reason_n and_o say_v that_o the_o earth_n do_v not_o only_o turn_v but_o the_o air_n also_o with_o a_o equal_a swiftness_n which_o cause_v the_o earth_n the_o man_n the_o air_n and_o the_o stone_n to_o turn_v all_o by_o a_o equal_a swiftness_n but_o suppose_v this_o be_v then_o there_o will_v happen_v two_o inconvenience_n which_o be_v against_o all_o experience_n the_o first_o be_v that_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v shoot_v a_o arrow_n with_o all_o his_o force_n towards_o the_o east_n and_o contrary_a to_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o air_n and_o that_o the_o same_o man_n shall_v shoot_v such_o another_o arrow_n towards_o the_o west_n according_a to_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o air_n the_o arrow_n shoot_v towards_o the_o west_n with_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o air_n will_v go_v much_o swift_a for_o have_v the_o air_n to_o back_v it_o than_o that_o shot_n towards_o the_o west_n for_o have_v the_o air_n against_o it_o the_o which_o contradict_v to_o experience_n itself_o the_o second_o be_v that_o those_o thing_n support_v by_o the_o air_n the_o light_a they_o be_v the_o further_a they_o be_v carry_v the_o heavy_a they_o be_v the_o less_o be_v they_o transport_v it_o must_v therefore_o follow_v that_o if_o from_o the_o top_n of_o a_o tower_n a_o stone_n and_o a_o hat_n shall_v be_v fling_v the_o hat_n will_v be_v carry_v a_o great_a deal_n further_o than_o the_o stone_n which_o be_v also_o against_o experience_n those_o which_o maintain_v the_o motion_n of_o the_o earth_n be_v force_v to_o set_v the_o sun_n at_o the_o centre_n and_o although_o this_o opinion_n be_v as_o far_o from_o a_o seem_a truth_n as_o from_o the_o truth_n itself_o nevertheless_o as_o the_o haughtiness_n of_o man_n wit_n tend_v to_o affect_v always_o some_o particular_a point_n so_o there_o be_v many_o find_v who_o have_v more_o passion_n than_o reason_n and_o will_v maintain_v thing_n which_o they_o themselves_o know_v to_o contradict_v reason_n only_o to_o give_v a_o essay_n of_o their_o wit_n and_o eloquence_n but_o these_o be_v mere_a flash_n and_o direct_o against_o the_o holy_a scripture_n where_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o 1._o epistle_n and_o 10._o verse_n of_o st._n paul_n to_o the_o hebrew_n et_fw-la tu_fw-la in_fw-la principio_fw-la domine_fw-la terram_fw-la fundasti_n that_o be_v to_o say_v and_o thou_o lord_n in_o the_o beginning_n have_v lay_v the_o foundation_n of_o the_o earth_n stable_n and_o by_o the_o same_o unreprovable_a word_n it_o be_v likewise_o prove_v that_o the_o sun_n have_v its_o course_n and_o motion_n and_o that_o therefore_o it_o can_v be_v at_o the_o centre_n of_o the_o world_n need_v there_o any_o other_o allegation_n or_o instance_n hereon_o than_o the_o commandment_n which_o joshua_n give_v to_o the_o sun_n to_o retard_v its_o course_n as_o it_o be_v write_v in_o the_o 10._o chapter_n 12._o and_o 13._o verse_n of_o the_o book_n of_o joshua_n sol_fw-la contra_fw-la gabaon_n ne_fw-la movearis_fw-la et_fw-la luna_fw-la donec_fw-la ulciscereturse_fw-la gens_fw-la de_fw-la inimicus_fw-la suis_fw-la that_o be_v to_o say_v sun_n stand_v thou_o still_o upon_o gibeon_n and_o thou_o moon_n in_o the_o valley_n of_o ajalon_n and_o the_o sun_n stand_v still_o and_o the_o moon_n stop_v until_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n have_v avenge_v themselves_o on_o their_o enemy_n we_o will_v not_o trouble_v you_o with_o a_o further_a search_n of_o any_o other_o motion_n since_o these_o be_v sufficient_o deduct_v and_o confirm_v but_o in_o all_o age_n there_o have_v be_v such_o critic_n only_o for_o to_o make_v themselves_o famous_a and_o to_o be_v speak_v of_o and_o hereat_o we_o need_v not_o to_o wonder_v since_o there_o be_v so_o many_o diverse_a opinion_n and_o belief_n extant_a which_o repugn_v direct_o against_o the_o holy_a scripture_n and_o against_o the_o article_n of_o our_o faith_n whereon_o our_o salvation_n be_v ground_v let_v we_o conclude_v therefore_o this_o lecture_n with_o all_o due_a acknowledgement_n and_o admiration_n that_o god_n have_v be_v please_v in_o his_o infinite_a incomprehensible_a bounty_n to_o create_v for_o our_o use_n who_o be_v but_o dust_n and_o ash_n these_o inaccessible_a heaven_n as_o also_o the_o sun_n moon_n and_o star_n prescribe_v unto_o they_o their_o several_a infallible_a course_n and_o admirable_a order_n for_o as_o he_o be_v above_o they_o all_o he_o need_v they_o out_o but_o we_o can_v subsist_v without_o they_o our_o eye_n will_v not_o stand_v we_o in_o stead_n unless_o we_o do_v make_v use_n of_o they_o as_o the_o two_o great_a light_n of_o our_o body_n to_o contemplate_v and_o study_v the_o admirable_a order_n motion_n and_o distance_n of_o the_o great_a light_n of_o heaven_n which_o by_o their_o marvellous_a operation_n and_o course_n do_v manifest_a to_o the_o good_a and_o bad_a who_o do_v equal_o enjoy_v the_o light_n of_o the_o sun_n moon_n and_o star_n the_o glory_n excellency_n power_n and_o bottomless_a riches_n of_o god_n and_o who_o do_v confound_v those_o wilful_a blind_a atheist_n more_o to_o be_v abhor_v if_o possible_a can_v be_v than_o the_o devil_n for_o that_o devil_n do_v acknowledge_v god_n though_o they_o do_v not_o believe_v in_o he_o we_o know_v that_o some_o will_v be_v apt_a to_o allege_v that_o divers_a great_a and_o wise_a man_n have_v not_o believe_v that_o there_o be_v a_o god_n but_o those_o be_v more_o than_o blind_a and_o bereave_v of_o all_o their_o sense_n and_o far_o worse_a than_o swine_n who_o never_o look_v up_o to_o the_o oak_n whence_o the_o acorn_n fall_v down_o to_o they_o certain_o they_o be_v great_a enemy_n than_o friend_n to_o knowledge_n be_v they_o study_v not_o to_o know_v the_o principle_n of_o all_o the_o author_n of_o immortality_n and_o see_v they_o deny_v that_o point_n it_o be_v no_o wonder_n they_o

to_o what_o purpose_n do_v hell_n the_o devil_n and_o fury_n serve_v and_o against_o who_o do_v they_o enrage_v and_o where_o do_v they_o discharge_v their_o fury_n if_o they_o shall_v not_o swallow_v these_o monster_n who_o do_v not_o apprehend_v that_o the_o sun_n may_v eclipse_v or_o that_o it_o shall_v withdraw_v its_o beam_n condemn_v they_o to_o a_o eternal_a night_n for_o that_o they_o do_v
