the_o face_n of_o the_o water_n also_o if_o several_a local_a motion_n be_v the_o formalitys_n or_o formal_a being_n of_o all_o spirit_n and_o spiritual_a qualitys_n than_o they_o shall_v not_o be_v before_o nor_o after_o nor_o any_o long_o than_o the_o local_a motion_n do_v continue_v for_o the_o formality_n of_o any_o thing_n be_v the_o very_a specifical_a be_v thereof_o as_o wind_n which_o

appear_v by_o vapour_n and_o to_o earth_n beneath_o it_o as_o may_v appear_v by_o ice_n and_o though_o earth_n and_o water_n be_v in_o this_o three_o day_n make_v and_o still_o be_v one_o

and_o thereby_o the_o other_o to_o ascend_v yet_o apparent_o the_o pound_n weight_n be_v also_o heavy_a because_o it_o weigh_v one_o pound_n though_o the_o two_o pound_n be_v more_o heavy_a and_o so_o cause_v that_o scale_n proportionable_o to_o descend_v and_o the_o other_o to_o ascend_v thus_o the_o motion_n of_o ascent_n of_o rare_a body_n be_v indeed_o rather_o a_o be_v move_v and_o their_o
