that_o conceive_v motion_n aright_o can_v but_o know_v that_o motion_n be_v the_o privation_n of_o one_o place_n and_o the_o acquisition_n of_o another_o in_o the_o next_o place_n we_o have_v their_o

always_o equal_a angle_n with_o each_o of_o they_o from_o which_o definition_n it_o follow_v first_o that_o any_o two_o straight_a line_n not_o incline_v opposite_a way_n fall_v upon_o two_o other_o straight_a line_n which_o be_v parallel_n and_o intercept_n equal_a part_n in_o both_o of_o they_o be_v themselves_o also_o equal_a and_o parallel_v as_o if_o ab_fw-la and_o cd_o in_o the_o three_o

therefore_o the_o angle_n cdh_n will_v be_v equal_a to_o the_o angle_n abdella_n and_o by_o the_o definition_n of_o parallel_n ab_fw-la and_o cd_o will_v be_v parallel_n which_o be_v the_o second_o
