Whereunto is joyned an hexameron, or a serious discourse of the causes, continuance, and qualities of things in nature; occasioned as matter pertinent to the work done in the six dayes of the worlds creation.

this_o effect_n must_v needs_o also_o be_v produce_v arm_a with_o these_o reason_n it_o be_v superfluous_a to_o join_v our_o force_n with_o copernicus_n but_o perhaps_o you_o will_v say_v it_o be_v

which_o i_o must_v first_o answer_v that_o in_o these_o mensuration_n we_o must_v not_o think_v to_o come_v so_o near_o the_o truth_n as_o in_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v subject_a to_o sense_n

their_o manifold_a distance_n second_o i_o also_o answer_v that_o the_o wonder_n be_v not_o more_o in_o the_o swiftness_n of_o the_o motion_n then_o in_o the_o largeness_n of_o the_o circumference_n for_o that_o which_o be_v but_o a_o slow_a motion_n in_o a_o little_a circuit_n although_o it_o be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o motion_n still_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o extraordinary_a motion_n in_o a_o

go_v on_o a_o while_n and_o adhere_v a_o little_a to_o the_o sect_n of_o copernicus_n and_o then_o you_o shall_v find_v so_o large_a a_o space_n between_o the_o convexitie_n of_o satur_n sphere_n

yet_o it_o be_v not_o so_o far_o forth_o to_o be_v understand_v as_o that_o in_o their_o substance_n they_o shall_v be_v quite_o burn_v up_o but_o rather_o that_o they_o shall_v be_v purify_v in_o
