uncertainty_n of_o all_o his_o write_n among_o who_o be_v picus_n patricius_n and_o gassendus_fw-la and_o from_o these_o author_n i_o will_v give_v you_o a_o brief_a account_n of_o this_o matter_n first_o than_o theophrastus_n aristotle_n scholar_n write_v several_a thing_n that_o have_v the_o same_o title_n with_o those_o we_o presume_v be_v his_o and_o who_o then_o can_v tell_v whether_o

make_v they_o sometime_o differ_v more_o in_o their_o style_n from_o themselves_o than_o other_o do_v from_o they_o at_o least_o second_o theophrastus_n have_v great_a advantage_n of_o add_v alter_v

what_o not_o they_o have_v meet_v with_o such_o hard_a usage_n as_o we_o mention_v yea_o the_o book_n themselves_o give_v notorious_a evidence_n of_o those_o abuse_n in_o the_o confusion_n inversion_n
