A77226	A new and cleer discovery, of the true, and proper, natural cause, of the ebbing and flowing of the main sea. Convincingly held forth, both from Scripture and reason. So as any rational man, may easily apprehend, the proper cause on its flucnt [sic] motion: and that it is not the Moon, as some have imagined, and gone about to prove. / Written by Ellis Bradshawe of the Parish of Boulton in the County of Lancaster, Husbandman.	Bradshaw, Ellis.	1649 (1649)	Wing B4146; Thomason E575_34; ESTC R206353	10,802	16

these_o conceit_n will_v prove_v ridiculous_a and_o they_o be_v altogether_o without_o ground_n or_o reason_n from_o any_o scripture_n testimony_n but_o it_o will_v be_v object_v that_o aristotle_n

to_o affirm_v or_o account_v it_o any_o cause_n at_o all_o either_o of_o the_o sea_n its_o ebb_a or_o its_o flow_v again_o or_o of_o any_o such_o thing_n of_o which_o it_o may_v be_v observe_v as_o
