this_o manner_n if_o the_o earth_n shall_v not_o be_v settle_v in_o her_o proper_a place_n this_o will_v of_o necessity_n happen_v either_o by_o dissolution_n and_o separation_n of_o the_o part_v

be_v admit_v because_o as_o we_o have_v before_o teach_v in_o the_o second_o chapter_n of_o this_o book_n all_o terrestrial_a body_n be_v endow_v with_o a_o inclination_n or_o ponderosity_n to_o approach_v as_o near_o as_o they_o can_v to_o the_o centre_n of_o the_o earth_n so_o that_o by_o this_o coherency_n and_o conformity_n the_o whole_a earth_n be_v ransom_v from_o any_o such_o

earth_n have_v she_o two_o pole_n magnetical_a make_v fast_o unto_o the_o pole_n of_o the_o world_n as_o if_o they_o be_v bind_v firm_o to_o two_o great_a pillar_n never_o to_o be_v shake_v final_o the_o centre_n of_o the_o earth_n can_v be_v move_v out_o of_o his_o place_n any_o wise_a because_o as_o we_o have_v demonstrate_v in_o the_o chapter_n before_o without_o the_o disturbance_n and_o inversion_n of_o the_o whole_a frame_n of_o nature_n the_o earth_n can_v have_v no_o other_o place_n then_o the_o centre_n or_o midst_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n some_o have_v allege_v as_o a_o argument_n that_o principle_n of_o aristotle_n that_o one_o simple_a body_n can_v have_v but_o one_o simple_a motion_n and_o therefore_o the_o earth_n challenge_v to_o itself_o a_o right_a motion_n to_o the_o centre_n can_v also_o have_v a_o circular_a or_o round_a motion_n and_o so_o of_o necessity_n must_v rest_v unmoved_a in_o her_o proper_a place_n but_o this_o reason_n as_o i_o have_v show_v be_v weak_a to_o prove_v this_o assertion_n first_o because_o this_o principle_n of_o aristotle_n be_v not_o ground_v on_o certainty_n but_o contradict_v experience_n as_o i_o have_v elsewhere_o show_v 2._o this_o right_a motion_n to_o the_o centre_n be_v not_o to_o be_v ascribe_v to_o the_o whole_a as_o the_o immediate_a subject_n but_o to_o the_o part_n of_o it_o separate_v from_o the_o whole_a so_o that_o nothing_o will_v hinder_v but_o that_o the_o whole_a globe_n may_v have_v a_o motion_n proper_a to_o itself_o on_o his_o own_o pole_n but_o to_o let_v this_o reason_n
