attenuate_a of_o air_n by_o heat_n in_o a_o invert_v oval_a glass_n the_o water_n seem_v to_o be_v draw_v up_o by_o a_o kind_n of_o suction_n as_o some_o will_v have_v it_o or_o to_o prevent_v a_o vacuum_n as_o other_o think_v but_o most_o probable_o if_o not_o demonstrative_o it_o ascend_v gradual_o and_o sensible_o for_o this_o cause_n viz_o that_o when_o the_o air_n in_o the_o glass_n which_o before_o by_o heat_n be_v attenuate_v be_v either_o by_o cold_a reduce_v into_o its_o pristine_a form_n or_o have_v as_o so_o thinned_a but_o a_o languid_a pressure_n be_v therefore_o by_o a_o more_o strong_a elastic_a force_n of_o air_n upon_o the_o surface_n of_o the_o water_n force_v up_o till_o it_o come_v to_o such_o a_o height_n as_o the_o pressure_n of_o air_n within_o and_o that_o without_o the_o glass_n be_v bring_v to_o a_o aequilibrium_fw-la or_o equal_a poysure_n i_o mean_v till_o the_o springy_a power_n of_o the_o air_n within_o and_o without_o the_o glass_n be_v of_o a_o equal_a force_n and_o there_o it_o stand_v till_o the_o springy_a power_n of_o the_o air_n within_o the_o glass_n by_o heat_n become_v dilate_v and_o then_o it_o force_v down_o the_o water_n in_o the_o tube_n and_o make_v the_o water_n in_o the_o viol_n rise_v high_o proportionable_a to_o the_o degree_n of_o the_o attenuation_n of_o the_o ayr._n 57_o that_o the_o air_n receive_v a_o considerable_a alteration_n by_o heat_n be_v further_a confirm_v by_o the_o experiment_n of_o invert_v a_o glass_n cucurbit_n over_o a_o candle_n fasten_v with_o tallow_n upon_o the_o bottom_n of_o a_o glass_n or_o earthen_a basin_n wherein_o water_n be_v first_o pour_v to_o the_o height_n of_o two_o or_o three_o finger_n breadth_n where_o the_o heat_n of_o the_o candle_n do_v so_o weaken_v the_o spring_n of_o the_o air_n within_o the_o glass_n that_o it_o want_v the_o help_n of_o the_o circulate_v air_n always_o requisite_a to_o the_o perpetuate_a the_o motion_n of_o body_n which_o be_v intercept_v by_o the_o body_n of_o water_n that_o in_o stead_n thereof_o the_o water_n itself_o circulate_v be_v force_v thereto_o by_o the_o spring_n of_o the_o air_n that_o press_v upon_o it_o from_o without_o and_o therefore_o it_o rise_v up_o to_o a_o great_a height_n of_o the_o glass-body_n as_o i_o have_v sometime_o see_v upon_o trial_n thereof_o and_o put_v out_o the_o candle_n which_o experiment_n seem_v somewhat_o to_o contradict_v the_o former_a of_o a_o weatherglass_n though_o in_o reality_n it_o do_v not_o for_o although_o there_o heat_n make_v it_o descend_v but_o here_o it_o make_v it_o ascend_v yet_o if_o we_o consider_v that_o in_o that_o of_o the_o weatherglass_n the_o air_n in_o it_o be_v first_o thin_v by_o heat_n before_o the_o glass_n be_v put_v into_o water_n and_o therefore_o when_o it_o be_v condense_v by_o cold_a it_o draw_v up_o the_o water_n or_o rather_o the_o water_n be_v force_v by_o the_o outward_a spring_n of_o the_o air_n and_o follow_v it_o to_o a_o aequilibrium_fw-la but_o in_o this_o last_o experiment_n the_o glass_n be_v invert_v into_o water_n without_o any_o previous_a alteration_n of_o the_o air_n therein_o which_o be_v to_o supply_v the_o motion_n of_o a_o body_n viz._n the_o burn_a of_o the_o candle_n do_v it_o for_o a_o while_n but_o want_v a_o fresh_a supply_n from_o other_o air_n without_o to_o promote_v the_o circulation_n thereof_o always_o necessary_a for_o the_o motion_n of_o body_n the_o want_n thereof_o make_v the_o strong_a spring_n of_o the_o air_n upon_o the_o surface_n of_o the_o water_n to_o force_v up_o the_o water_n itself_o into_o the_o glass-body_n from_o which_o experiment_n result_v these_o follow_a corollary_n viz._n first_o that_o a_o circulation_n of_o air_n be_v requisite_a for_o the_o motion_n of_o all_o body_n the_o candle_n in_o the_o glass_n we_o see_v extinguish_v for_o want_v thereof_o by_o force_v up_o the_o water_n in_o lieu_n of_o air._n second_o that_o air_n may_v be_v attenuate_v by_o the_o heat_n of_o the_o sun_n whereby_o the_o same_o portion_n of_o air_n may_v be_v make_v to_o extend_v itself_o over_o a_o large_a space_n witness_v the_o heat_n the_o glass_n in_o the_o first_o of_o the_o two_o last_o experiment_n three_o that_o this_o air_n thus_o attenuate_v and_o extend_v by_o the_o heat_n of_o the_o sun_n be_v the_o reason_n why_o culinary_a fire_n die_v or_o go_v out_o when_o the_o beam_n of_o the_o sun_n be_v cast_v upon_o it_o because_o they_o thin_a the_o air_n and_o the_o air_n be_v the_o natural_a bellows_o of_o fire_n which_o fire_n burn_v according_a to_o the_o intenseness_n or_o remissness_n of_o the_o air._n four_o that_o the_o air_n thus_o thinned_a make_v way_n for_o water_n to_o ascend_v up_o the_o small_a vein_n thereof_o which_o be_v like_o so_o many_o slender_a syphon_n by_o which_o it_o mount_v from_o earth_n water_n and_o sea_n up_o into_o the_o cloud_n for_o the_o supply_n of_o rain_n and_o snow_n which_o syphon_n in_o droughty_a hot_a weather_n be_v mostwhat_o at_o work_n carrying_z it_o upward_o whereas_o in_o moist_a weather_n the_o water_n descend_v by_o the_o same_o syphon_n and_o moisten_v the_o ground_n with_o dew_n and_o wall_n or_o floor_n of_o stonebuilding_n in_o wet_a season_n so_o that_o the_o repute_a exhalation_n of_o moisture_n by_o the_o sun_n for_o the_o supply_n of_o rain_n be_v no_o other_o than_o this_o gradual_a steam_v up_o of_o slender_a syphon_n whereby_o water_n mount_v insensible_o the_o uppermost_a part_n of_o the_o atmosphere_n five_o that_o in_o great_a heat_n of_o weather_n many_o disease_n happen_v through_o the_o thinness_n of_o the_o air_n for_o the_o air_n in_o the_o lung_n be_v the_o bellows_o of_o the_o vital_a fire_n in_o the_o heart_n which_o if_o it_o become_v attenuate_v either_o through_o a_o general_a heat_n in_o the_o air_n whence_o arise_v frequent_o some_o epidemical_a disease_n or_o through_o the_o obstruction_n of_o the_o lung_n themselves_o whereby_o the_o air_n for_o want_v of_o foundness_n of_o organ_n become_v thin_v before_o it_o come_v to_o volatize_v the_o blood_n in_o its_o current_n from_o the_o right_n to_o the_o left_a ventricle_n of_o the_o heart_n cause_v faint_n lassitude_n candialgia_n asthma_n deliquium_n and_o in_o woman_n swound_n palpitation_n rouse_a up_o the_o spleen_n and_o mother_n etc._n etc._n yea_o in_o fine_a make_v the_o lamp_n of_o life_n burn_v dark_a and_o dim_o whereas_o the_o air_n by_o cold_a be_v reduce_v to_o its_o pristine_a form_n and_o the_o lung_n free_v from_o obstruction_n quicken_v the_o vital_a ferment_n sharpen_v the_o appetite_n make_v the_o vital_a fire_n burn_v clear_o and_o make_v evident_a that_o the_o ferment_n of_o the_o several_a digestion_n be_v vital_a for_o in_o cold_a weather_n we_o find_v our_o appetite_n more_o acuate_v our_o ferment_n more_o vigorous_a and_o the_o digestion_n more_o powerful_a but_o i_o will_v not_o though_o i_o may_v here_o further_o enlarge_v to_o show_v how_o the_o air_n in_o a_o due_a order_n contribute_v to_o the_o invigorate_n the_o ferment_n and_o how_o much_o it_o conduce_v in_o the_o change_n thereof_o towards_o the_o cure_n disease_n but_o i_o proceed_v sixthly_a and_o which_o chief_o concern_v our_o present_a purpose_n assert_v that_o the_o heat_n of_o the_o sun_n contribute_v by_o thin_a the_o air_n towards_o the_o circulation_n of_o water_n from_o sea_n to_o spring_n and_o from_o water_n upon_o the_o earth_n to_o cloud_n for_o the_o sun_n whilst_o he_o be_v suppose_v in_o the_o northern_a sign_n especial_o towards_o the_o tropic_a of_o cancer_n cast_v his_o ray_n pretty_a powerful_o upon_o those_o place_n which_o be_v within_o the_o oblique_a position_n of_o the_o

right_a angle_n whilst_o he_o be_v i_o say_v in_o the_o northern_a sign_n by_o his_o heat_n he_o thin_n the_o air_n of_o those_o region_n especial_o as_o those_o place_n fall_v under_o the_o meridian_n as_o some_o place_n must_v always_o do_v the_o sun_n in_o his_o suppose_a diurnal_a circuit_n make_v twenty_o four_o meridian_n the_o air_n under_o these_o meridian_n especial_o in_o those_o place_n where_o the_o sun_n be_v or_o incline_v to_o be_v vertical_a be_v attenuate_v make_v the_o air_n circulate_v the_o more_o strong_o towards_o the_o other_o quadrant_n of_o the_o terraqueous_a globe_n cause_v there_o a_o strong_a pressure_n upon_o the_o surface_n of_o the_o sea_n and_o this_o must_v be_v constant_o do_v because_o the_o sun_n real_o or_o apparent_o be_v always_o in_o motion_n about_o the_o earth_n who_o in_o his_o circuit_n thin_n the_o air_n of_o those_o place_n which_o lie_v most_o direct_o under_o his_o beam_n and_o so_o make_v the_o air_n as_o
