of_o a_o liquor_n can_v not_o be_v considerable_a this_o glass_n weigh_v 23_o 1_o ●_o grain_n we_o fill_v almost_o with_o quicksilver_n and_o fasten_v a_o mark_n over_o against_o the_o middle_n of_o

that_o though_o water_n as_o appear_v by_o the_o experiment_n former_o mention_v of_o the_o pewter_n vessel_n seem_v not_o capable_a of_o ●ny_n considerable_a condensation_n and_o seem_v not_o to_o have_v intersperse_v in_o it_o any_o store_n of_o air_n yet_o quicksilver_n of_o no_o great_a bulk_n than_o water_n shall_v weigh_v near_o fourteen_o time_n as_o much_o but_o have_v only_o point_v at_o this_o as_o a_o thing_n worthy_a of_o consideration_n we_o will_v proceed_v in_o our_o inquiry_n after_o the_o height_n of_o the_o atmosphere_n and_o to_o avoid_v the_o trouble_n of_o fraction_n we_o will_v assume_v that_o quicksilver_n be_v fourteen_o time_n as_o heavy_a as_o water_n since_o it_o want_v so_o little_a of_o be_v so_o wherefore_o have_v now_o give_v we_o the_o proportion_n of_o air_n to_o water_n and_o water_n to_o quicksilver_n it_o will_v be_v very_o easy_a to_o find_v the_o proportion_n betwixt_o air_n and_o quicksilver_n in_o case_n we_o will_v suppose_v the_o atmosphere_n to_o be_v uniform_o of_o such_o a_o consistence_n as_o the_o air_n we_o weigh_v here_o below_o for_o since_o our_o engine_n have_v sufficient_o manifest_v that_o it_o be_v the_o aequilibrium_fw-la with_o the_o external_a air_n that_o in_o the_o torricellian_a experiment_n keep_v the_o quicksilver_n from_o subside_v and_o since_o by_o our_o accurate_a experiment_n former_o mention_v it_o appear_v that_o a_o cylinder_n of_o mercury_n able_a to_o balance_v a_o cylinder_n of_o the_o whole_a atmosphere_n amount_v to_o near_a about_o thirty_o inch_n and_o since_o consequent_o we_o may_v assume_v the_o proportion_n of_o quicksilver_n to_o air_n to_o be_v as_o fourteen_o thousand_o to_o one_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o a_o cylinder_n of_o air_n capable_a to_o maintain_v a_o aequilibrium_fw-la with_o a_o mercurial_a cylinder_n of_o two_o foot_n and_o a_o half_a in_o height_n must_v amount_v to_o 35000_o foot_n of_o our_o english_a measure_n and_o consequent_o reckon_v five_o foot_n to_o a_o geometrical_a pace_n and_o one_o thousand_o such_o pace_n to_o a_o mile_n to_o seven_o full_a mile_n but_o this_o as_o we_o late_o intimate_v proceed_v upon_o the_o supposition_n that_o the_o air_n be_v every_o where_o of_o the_o same_o consistence_n that_o we_o find_v it_o near_o the_o surface_n of_o the_o earth_n but_o that_o can_v with_o any_o
