A05102	The third volume of the French academie contayning a notable description of the whole world, and of all the principall parts and contents thereof: as namely, of angels both good and euill: of the celestiall spheres, their order and number: of the fixed stars and planets; their light, motion, and influence: of the fower elements, and all things in them, or of them consisting: and first of firie, airie, and watrie meteors or impressions of comets, thunders, lightnings, raines, snow, haile, rainebowes, windes, dewes, frosts, earthquakes, &c. ingendered aboue, in, and vnder the middle or cloudie region of the aire. And likewise of fowles, fishes, beasts, serpents, trees with their fruits and gum; shrubs, herbes, spices, drugs, minerals, precious stones, and other particulars most worthie of all men to be knowen and considered. Written in French by that famous and learned gentleman Peter de la Primaudaye Esquier, Lord of the same place, and of Barree: and Englished by R. Dolman.; Academie françoise. Part 3.

also_o consider_v in_o the_o sphere_n four_o principal_a lesser_o and_o mooveable_a circle_n whereof_o the_o two_o first_o do_v limit_n out_o the_o whole_a obliquenes_n of_o the_o zodiac_n and_o the_o

tropic_n and_o you_o must_v note_v that_o these_o say_v four_o lesser_a circle_n do_v divide_v the_o whole_a sphere_n into_o five_o part_n or_o principal_a region_n common_o call_v zone_n whereto_o

and_o greatness_n as_o also_o in_o nature_n or_o accidental_a disposition_n cause_v chief_o by_o the_o radiation_n of_o the_o sun_n the_o first_o then_o of_o these_o five_o part_n or_o region_n of_o the_o sphere_n be_v comprehend_v between_o the_o two_o tropic_n &_o divide_v by_o the_o equinoctial_a in_o the_o midst_n for_o which_o cause_n it_o be_v the_o most_o ample_a of_o all_o the_o rest_n the_o two_o extreme_a and_o small_a be_v comprise_v about_o the_o pole_n of_o the_o world_n within_o the_o arctic_a and_o antarctic_a circle_n wherefore_o the_o one_o be_v call_v the_o north_n and_o

of_o the_o world_n be_v large_a towards_o the_o two_o tropicke_n then_o towards_o the_o polary_a circle_n which_o together_o be_v the_o bound_n of_o they_o and_o among_o these_o five_o zone_n which_o

by_o mean_n of_o the_o diverse_a effect_n cause_v by_o the_o sun_n for_o the_o mean_a region_n about_o the_o equinoctial_a be_v for_o three_o cause_n temperate_a first_o because_o the_o sun_n be_v under_o or_o about_o the_o say_v equinoctial_a it_o make_v a_o great_a circuit_n in_o the_o universal_a motion_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n and_o run_v fast_a away_o for_o which_o cause_n his_o heat_n make_v not_o so_o great_a impression_n upon_o the_o earth_n second_o because_o it_o pass_v sudden_o from_o the_o south_n to_o the_o north_n part_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o transuer_n disposition_n of_o the_o zodiac_n about_o the_o equinoctial_a and_o three_o because_o the_o day_n be_v there_o equal_a with_o the_o night_n whereby_o the_o heat_n of_o the_o one_o be_v temper_v by_o the_o coldness_n of_o the_o other_o but_o about_o the_o tropic_n the_o heat_n be_v excessive_a in_o summer_n first_o because_o the_o sun_n be_v then_o in_o those_o station_n wherein_o his_o shine_a endure_v long_a upon_o the_o earth_n and_o by_o reason_n also_o that_o he_o perform_v less_o compass_n and_o pass_v slow_o away_o whereby_o his_o heat_n take_v more_o deep_a impression_n and_o beside_o all_o this_o the_o day_n be_v long_o than_o the_o night_n in_o such_o sort_n that_o the_o heat_n of_o the_o one_o surmount_v the_o cold_a of_o the_o other_o for_o the_o two_o polarie_a region_n and_o the_o circumiacent_a part_n it_o be_v manifest_a that_o they_o be_v far_o out_o of_o the_o fun_v way_n whereof_o ensue_v that_o by_o the_o too_o much_o oblique_a radiation_n thereof_o heat_n be_v there_o exceed_v feeble_a and_o cold_a great_a and_o intolerable_a final_o in_o the_o midst_n or_o about_o the_o two_o other_o foresay_a region_n between_o the_o equinoctial_a and_o pole_n of_o the_o world_n the_o disposition_n of_o the_o air_n be_v temperate_a as_o well_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o commixture_n of_o the_o heat_n which_o be_v about_o the_o tropic_n and_o the_o cold_a which_o be_v about_o the_o polarie_a circle_n as_o because_o of_o the_o mean_a radiation_n of_o the_o sun_n that_o be_v to_o say_v neither_o too_o direct_a nor_o too_o oblique_a so_o then_o the_o middle_a zone_n comprise_v between_o the_o two_o tropic_n be_v temperate_a about_o the_o midst_n &_o intemperate_a through_o excessive_a heat_n about_o the_o extremity_n thereof_o whereupon_o it_o be_v in_o this_o part_n call_v the_o torrid-zone_n because_o the_o sun_n do_v always_o turn_v about_o it_o and_o the_o two_o polarie_n and_o extreme_a region_n be_v perpetual_o intemperate_a through_o cold_a and_o the_o two_o mean_n be_v temperate_a about_o the_o midst_n and_o in_o one_o extreme_a thereof_o intemperate_a with_o heat_n and_o in_o the_o other_o with_o cold_a but_o thereof_o follow_v not_o that_o all_o intemperate_a place_n shall_v be_v inhabitable_a but_o only_o very_o hard_a and_o difficult_a to_o dwell_v in_o hitherto_o have_v our_o talk_n be_v concern_v the_o principal_a and_o mooveable_a circle_n of_o the_o sphere_n horizon_n of_o immooveable_a circle_n and_o first_o of_o the_o horizon_n now_o let_v we_o entreat_v of_o the_o immooveable_a even_o then_o as_o the_o zodiac_n &_o equinoctial_a be_v the_o two_o chief_a among_o the_o mooveable_a circle_n so_o be_v the_o horizon_n and_o meridian_n among_o the_o immooveable_a by_o the_o horizon_n be_v mean_v a_o great_a circle_n imagine_v in_o heaven_n which_o divide_v that_o half_a of_o heaven_n which_o be_v see_v from_o that_o half_n which_o be_v not_o see_v that_o be_v which_o part_v the_o hemisphere_n under_o we_o from_o that_o which_o be_v above_o us._n and_o to_o this_o same_o circle_n one_o of_o the_o pole_n be_v always_o the_o vertical_a point_n and_o the_o other_o pole_n be_v the_o point_n opposite_a wherefore_o by_o how_o much_o each_o place_n have_v his_o point_n high_o by_o so_o much_o do_v the_o horizon_n of_o each_o place_n differ_v for_o there_o be_v so_o many_o orison_n as_o there_o be_v particular_a place_n and_o therefore_o the_o horizon_n of_o those_o which_o have_v the_o vertical_a point_n that_o be_v the_o point_n which_o be_v right_a over_o head_n under_o the_o equinoctial_a be_v name_v the_o right_a horizon_n because_o it_o must_v needs_o pass_v by_o the_o pole_n of_o the_o world_n and_o divide_v the_o equinoctial_a at_o right_n angle_v one_o equal_a to_o another_o whereupon_o it_o be_v also_o call_v a_o right_a sphere_n because_o it_o seem_v to_o be_v right_o place_v in_o respect_n of_o that_o horizon_n and_o the_o star_n to_o make_v their_o motion_n direct_o by_o the_o universal_a motion_n of_o the_o sphere_n but_o the_o horizon_n of_o those_o who_o zenith_n be_v out_o of_o the_o equinoctial_a towards_o the_o one_o or_o other_o pole_n of_o the_o world_n be_v call_v oblique_a because_o that_o one_o of_o the_o pole_n to_o wit_n that_o which_o the_o vertical_a point_n be_v next_o to_o be_v elevate_v above_o the_o say_a horizon_n and_o the_o other_o pole_n be_v so_o much_o depress_v under_o the_o same_o which_o for_o this_o occasion_n do_v divide_v the_o equinoctial_a at_o oblique_a angle_n unequal_a one_o to_o another_o wherefore_o also_o the_o sphere_n be_v say_v to_o be_v oblique_a because_o it_o be_v oblique_o place_v in_o respect_n of_o the_o say_a horizon_n and_o the_o star_n turn_v oblique_o in_o the_o universal_a motion_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o all_o direct_a orison_n be_v of_o one_o selfsame_a disposition_n but_o among_o the_o oblique_a there_o be_v as_o many_o difference_n of_o obliquity_n as_o be_v distance_n between_o the_o vertical_a point_n and_o the_o equinoctial_a or_o as_o the_o elevation_n of_o the_o pole_n be_v diverse_a above_o they_o for_o the_o meridian_n it_o be_v a_o great_a circle_n
