who_o so_o will_v near_o look_v into_o what_o have_v be_v speak_v may_v likewise_o understand_v wind_n that_o go_v from_o the_o west_n to_o the_o east_n in_o altitude_n beyond_o the_o tropike_n we_o shall_v find_v western_a wind_n for_o that_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o equinoctial_a be_v so_o swift_a it_o be_v a_o cause_n that_o the_o air_n move_v under_o it_o according_a to_o this_o motion_n which_o be_v from_o the_o east_n to_o west_n draw_v after_o it_o the_o vapour_n and_o exhalation_n that_o rise_v of_o either_o side_n the_o equinoctial_a or_o burn_a zone_n in_o counter_v the_o

like_a in_o vapour_n and_o exhalation_n whereby_o it_o grow_v that_o the_o wind_n do_v turn_v and_o separate_v themselves_o from_o one_o part_n to_o another_o these_o westerly_a wind_n do_v common_o rain_v in_o a_o mean_a altitude_n which_o be_v from_o twenty_o and_o seven_o to_o thirty_o and_o seven_o degree_n though_o they_o be_v not_o so_o certain_a nor_o so_o regular_a as_o the_o brise_n that_o be_v in_o a_o less_o altitude_n the_o reason_n be_v for_o that_o the_o south-west_n wind_n be_v no_o cause_n of_o this_o proper_a and_o equal_a motion_n of_o the_o heaven_n as_o the_o brise_n

forty_o degree_n there_o be_v as_o small_a assurance_n of_o wind_n at_o sea_n as_o at_o land_n for_o sometime_o the_o east_n or_o north_n wind_n blow_n wind_n and_o sometime_o the_o south_n or_o

the_o zone_n must_v be_v understand_v of_o the_o main_a sea_n and_o in_o the_o great_a gulf_n for_o at_o land_n it_o be_v otherwise_o where_o we_o find_v all_o sort_n of_o wind_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o inequality_n which_o be_v betwixt_o the_o mountain_n and_o the_o valley_n the_o great_a number_n of_o river_n and_o lake_n and_o the_o diverse_a situation_n of_o country_n whence_o the_o gross_a

the_o motion_n of_o the_o air_n cause_v by_o the_o heaven_n have_v not_o power_n enough_o to_o draw_v and_o move_v they_o with_o it_o and_o this_o variety_n of_o wind_n be_v not_o only_o find_v at_o

blow_v from_o the_o sea_n the_o which_o wind_n from_o the_o sea_n be_v common_o more_o wholesome_a and_o more_o pleasant_a than_o those_o of_o the_o land_n which_o be_v contrariwise_o troublesome_a and_o unwholesome_a although_o it_o be_v the_o difference_n of_o the_o coast_n that_o cause_v this_o diversity_n common_o the_o land_n wind_v blow_n from_o midnight_n to_o the_o sun_n rise_v and_o the_o sea_n wind_n until_o sun_n set_v the_o reason_n perhaps_o may_v be_v simile_n that_o the_o earth_n as_o a_o gross_a substance_n fume_n more_o when_o as_o the_o sun_n shine_v not_o upon_o it_o even_o as_o green_a wood_n or_o scarce_o dry_a smoke_v most_o when_o the_o flame_n be_v quench_v but_o the_o sea_n which_o be_v compound_v of_o more_o subtle_a part_n engender_v no_o fume_n but_o when_o it_o be_v hot_a even_o as_o straw_n or_o ha●e_n be_v moist_a and_o in_o small_a quantity_n breed_v smoke_n when_o it_o be_v burn_v and_o when_o the_o flame_n fail_v the_o fume_n sudden_o

violent_a and_o tempestuous_a wind_n upon_o the_o sea_n coast_n so_o do_v we_o see_v very_o great_a calm_n some_o man_n of_o great_a experience_n report_n note_n that_o have_v sail_v many_o great_a passage_n at_o sea_n under_o the_o line_n yet_o do_v they_o never_o see_v any_o calm_n but_o that_o they_o always_o make_v way_n little_a or_o much_o the_o air_n be_v move_v by_o the_o celestial_a

the_o burn_a zone_n and_o without_o it_o you_o shall_v usual_o see_v great_a calm_n upon_o the_o coast_n where_o the_o vapour_n come_v from_o the_o land_n or_o main_a land_n and_o therefore_o storm_n and_o tempest_n and_o the_o sudden_a motion_n of_o the_o air_n be_v more_o certain_a and_o ordinary_a upon_o the_o coast_n whereas_o the_o vapour_n come_v from_o the_o land_n then_o in_o full_a sea_n i_o mean_v under_o the_o burn_a zone_n for_o without_o it_o and_o at_o sea_n there_o be_v both_o calm_n and_o whirlwind_n notwithstanding_o sometime_o betwixt_o the_o two_o tropicke_n yea_o under_o
