the_o common_a air_n in_o that_o hemisphere_n wax_v cold_a and_o be_v contract_v and_o condense_a and_o consequent_o the_o particular_a air_n in_o the_o glass_n will_v be_v contract_v after_o the_o

that_o i_o have_v show_v you_o thus_o much_o mark_v that_o when_o the_o sun_n come_v new_o into_o a_o hemisphere_n where_o winter_n do_v reign_v or_o have_v dominion_n and_o therefore_o the_o cold_a
