region_n habitable_a i_o shall_v be_v very_o short_a because_o the_o same_o reason_n serve_v for_o this_o purpose_n which_o be_v allege_v before_o in_o the_o prove_v the_o middle_a zone_n to_o be_v

equinoctial_a this_o benefit_n of_o the_o sun_n long_a continuance_n &_o increase_n of_o the_o day_n do_v augment_v so_o much_o the_o more_o in_o cold_a region_n as_o they_o be_v near_o the_o pole_n
