they_o line_n other_o sort_n on_o which_o the_o virtue_n of_o thing_n do_v depend_v they_o err_v not_o much_o in_o this_o say_n only_o in_o appear_v to_o divide_v the_o godhead_n into_o diversity_n

whole_a effect_n of_o the_o divine_a action_n in_o the_o humid_a nature_n of_o this_o inferior_a world_n do_v consist_v in_o congelation_n and_o rarefaction_n and_o that_o the_o first_o be_v cause_v by_o the_o privative_a and_o northern_a act_n of_o god_n spirit_n which_o do_v operate_v by_o cold_a and_o the_o other_o by_o his_o positive_a operation_n which_o be_v guide_v by_o heat_n now_o as_o these_o two_o have_v their_o dominion_n or_o depression_n by_o the_o presence_n or_o absence_n of_o the_o sun_n so_o also_o be_v the_o universal_a air_n more_o cold_a spisse_fw-la opake_v and_o

veni_fw-la spiritus_fw-la à_fw-la quatuor_fw-la ventis_fw-la etc._n etc._n wherefore_o this_o spirit_n be_v it_o that_o govern_v the_o universal_a sublunary_a air_n as_o well_o privative_o as_o positive_o and_o although_o this_o spirit_n be_v most_o plentiful_o in_o the_o sun_n yet_o it_o be_v nevertheless_o every_o where_o be_v able_a at_o all_o time_n and_o in_o every_o place_n to_o

most_o clear_o demonstrate_v unto_o you_o that_o the_o air_n include_v in_o the_o weatherglass_n have_v in_o every_o respect_n a_o relation_n unto_o the_o air_n or_o catholic_a element_n of_o the_o great_a world_n where_o also_o it_o be_v prove_v that_o the_o aerial_a humid_a nature_n do_v as_o exact_o fill_v every_o place_n of_o the_o vault_a world_n where_o the_o earth_n or_o water_n be_v not_o lest_o any_o vacuity_n shall_v be_v find_v in_o the_o cavity_n thereof_o no_o otherwise_o than_o the_o dilate_a air_n in_o the_o head_n and_o neck_n of_o the_o weatherglass_n do_v fill_v the_o

the_o near_o the_o sun_n be_v and_o the_o more_o perpendicular_a his_o beam_n be_v the_o great_a will_v the_o general_a air_n be_v rarefaction_n be_v and_o consequent_o of_o that_o particular_a air_n which_o be_v in_o the_o glass_n on_o the_o other_o side_n when_o the_o sun_n be_v absent_a from_o the_o boreall_n hemisphere_n namely_o when_o it_o move_v beyond_o the_o aequinoctial_a then_o will_v 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 same_o proportion_n which_o may_v easy_o be_v measure_v or_o conceive_v by_o the_o degree_n of_o ascent_n of_o the_o water_n in_o the_o glass_n as_o the_o rarefaction_n may_v be_v collect_v by_o the_o descent_n thereof_o this_o therefore_o be_v well_o conceive_v or_o understand_v and_o that_o the_o cause_n of_o this_o rarefaction_n be_v the_o presence_n of_o this_o divine_a act_n in_o the_o sunny_a tabernacle_n and_o that_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o condensation_n be_v the_o absence_n or_o remoteness_n of_o the_o say_a act_n or_o operate_n and_o emanate_a spirit_n and_o consequent_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o divine_a puissance_n which_o be_v darkness_n for_o as_o we_o say_v the_o absence_n of_o heat_n be_v the_o presence_n of_o cold_a which_o be_v the_o essential_a worker_n in_o the_o divine_a puissance_n and_o again_o the_o presence_n of_o heat_n be_v the_o absence_n of_o cold_a so_o also_o the_o absence_n of_o positive_a light_n conceive_v privative_a darkness_n and_o the_o

external_a be_v and_o how_o that_o air_n be_v animate_v by_o the_o vivify_a spirit_n which_o be_v send_v out_o from_o the_o sun_n consider_v therefore_o that_o when_o the_o sun_n be_v present_a with_o

when_o the_o sun_n be_v present_a the_o air_n include_v be_v forthwith_o dilate_v more_o or_o less_o according_a unto_o the_o vigour_n of_o the_o solar_n spirit_n and_o wind_n that_o blow_v but_o when_o it_o be_v dilate_v it_o require_v by_o so_o much_o the_o more_o a_o large_a place_n to_o be_v contain_v in_o by_o how_o much_o the_o more_o it_o be_v dilate_v or_o rarify_v and_o that_o be_v

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
