fast_o upon_o us._n the_o dainty_a smell_v of_o flower_n be_v out_o of_o those_o plant_n who_o leave_n smell_v not_o as_o violet_n rose_n wall-flower_n gillyflower_n pink_n woodbine_n vine-flower_n

intolerable_a as_o they_o be_v in_o barbary_n and_o the_o skirt_n of_o the_o torrid_a zone_n equinoctial_a the_o cause_n be_v first_o the_o great_a brize_n which_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o air_n in_o

brize_n be_v great_a as_o about_o nine_o or_o ten_o of_o the_o clock_n in_o the_o forenoon_n another_o cause_n be_v for_o that_o the_o length_n of_o the_o night_n and_o the_o dew_n thereof_o do_v compense_v the_o heat_n of_o the_o day_n a_o three_o cause_n be_v the_o stay_n of_o the_o sun_n not_o in_o respect_n of_o day_n and_o night_n for_o that_o we_o speak_v of_o before_o but_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o season_n for_o under_o the_o line_n the_o sun_n cross_v the_o line_n and_o make_v two_o summer_n and_o two_o winter_n but_o in_o the_o skirt_n of_o the_o torrid_a zone_n it_o double_v and_o go_v back_o again_o and_o so_o make_v one_o long_a summer_n the_o heat_n of_o the_o sun_n make_v man_n black_a in_o some_o country_n as_o in_o aethiopia_n and_o ginny_n etc._n etc._n moor_n fire_n do_v it_o not_o as_o we_o see_v in_o glasseman_n that_o be_v continual_o about_o the_o fire_n the_o reason_n may_v be_v because_o fire_n do_v lick_v up_o the_o spirit_n and_o blood_n of_o the_o body_n so_o as_o they_o exhale_v so_o that_o it_o ever_o make_v man_n look_v pale_a and_o sallow_a but_o the_o sun_n which_o be_v a_o gentle_a heat_n do_v but_o draw_v the_o blood_n to_o the_o outward_a part_n and_o rather_o concoot_v it_o than_o soak_v it_o and_o therefore_o we_o see_v that_o all_o aethiape_n be_v fleshy_a and_o plump_a and_o have_v great_a lip_n all_o which_o betoken_v moisture_n retain_v and_o not_o draw_v out_o we_o see_v also_o that_o the_o negro_n be_v breed_v in_o country_n that_o have_v plenty_n of_o water_n by_o river_n or_o otherwise_o for_o meroe_n which_o be_v the_o metropolis_n of_o aethiopia_n be_v upon_o a_o great_a lake_n and_o congo_n where_o the_o negro_n be_v be_v full_a of_o rivers_n and_o the_o confine_n of_o the_o river_n niger_n where_o the_o negro_n also_o be_v be_v well_o water_v and_o the_o region_n about_o capo_n verde_v be_v likewise_o moist_a in_o so_o much_o as_o it_o be_v pestilent_a through_o moisture_n but_o the_o country_n of_o the_o abyssenes_n and_o barbary_n and_o peru._n where_o they_o be_v tawny_a and_o olivaster_n and_o pale_a be_v general_o more_o sandy_a and_o dry._n as_o for_o the_o aethiope_n as_o they_o be_v plump_a and_o fleshy_a so_o it_o may_v be_v they_o be_v sanguine_a and_o ruddy_a colour_a if_o their_o black_a skin_n will_v suffer_v it_o to_o be_v see_v some_o creature_n do_v

the_o first_o lie_v loser_n and_o the_o latter_a lay_v deep_o so_o that_o if_o you_o infuse_v rhubarb_n for_o a_o hour_n and_o crush_v it_o well_o it_o will_v purge_v better_o and_o bind_v the_o

therefore_o it_o be_v of_o good_a use_n in_o physic_n if_o you_o can_v retain_v the_o purge_v virtue_n and_o take_v away_o the_o unpleasant_a taste_n of_o the_o purger_n which_o it_o be_v like_o you_o may_v do_v by_o this_o course_n of_o infuse_v oft_o with_o little_a stay_n for_o it_o be_v probable_a that_o the_o horrible_a and_o odious_a taste_n be_v in_o the_o grosser_n part_n general_o the_o
