than_o at_o other_o vii_o the_o moon_n be_v by_o all_o astronomer_n believe_v to_o be_v less_o than_o the_o terrestrial_a globe_n because_o the_o shadow_n of_o the_o eclipse_n of_o the_o sun_n be_v much_o too_o little_a to_o obtenebrate_v all_o the_o earth_n but_o suppose_v the_o sun_n to_o be_v of_o so_o inapparent_n a_o bigness_n and_o distance_n from_o the_o earth_n as_o the_o vulgar_a of_o astronomer_n do_v receive_v he_o to_o be_v of_o and_o the_o moon_n to_o be_v of_o a_o far_o great_a distance_n from_o the_o earth_n than_o she_o be_v certain_o the_o shadow_n which_o she_o will_v cast_v must_v be_v much_o less_o than_o her_o body_n although_o it_o be_v forty_o time_n big_a than_o it_o be_v because_o the_o sun_n be_v great_a than_o she_o must_v according_a to_o the_o ordinary_a
