will_v say_v that_o the_o great_a part_n of_o the_o water_n of_o the_o sea_n be_v engender_v in_o the_o north._n as_o albert_n the_o great_a declare_v in_o the_o second_o of_o the_o meteor_n the_o six_o chapter_n where_o he_o say_v that_o the_o sea_n run_v from_o the_o north_n to_o the_o south_n and_o the_o cause_n be_v that_o the_o sea_n be_v high_a in_o the_o north_n then_o towards_o the_o south_n and_o the_o reason_n why_o it_o be_v high_a be_v because_o that_o the_o cold_a of_o the_o north_n engender_v more_o water_n than_o the_o sea_n can_v contain_v in_o the_o space_n distance_n and_o height_n of_o its_o coast_n there_o the_o water_n which_o be_v in_o the_o south_n be_v consume_v and_o diminish_v by_o the_o heat_n of_o the_o sun_n therefore_o one_o part_n of_o the_o south_n water_n drive_v the_o other_o back_n towards_o the_o lowermost_a side_n yet_o nevertheless_o either_o move_v accidental_o from_o the_o place_n of_o their_o generation_n because_o that_o which_o be_v moist_a run_v to_o be_v retain_v in_o the_o dry_a part_n the_o reason_n why_o the_o water_n consume_v itself_o so_o much_o in_o the_o south_n be_v because_o the_o sun_n turn_v always_o in_o his_o excentrique_fw-la circle_n and_o that_o its_o centre_n be_v not_o the_o same_o with_o that_o of_o the_o earth_n so_o that_o if_o the_o diameter_n of_o the_o circle_n of_o the_o sun_n be_v pass_v between_o two_o diameter_n its_o centre_n and_o that_o of_o the_o earth_n the_o great_a part_n of_o the_o diameter_n will_v be_v at_o one_o side_n and_o the_o lesser_a at_o the_o other_o in_o consideration_n of_o the_o centre_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o thus_o it_o be_v geometrical_o demonstrate_v that_o the_o great_a length_n of_o the_o diameter_n be_v near_o the_o twenty_o degree_n of_o gemini_fw-la and_o that_o the_o least_o length_n of_o it_o be_v at_o the_o twenty_o degree_n of_o sagitarius_n its_o opposite_a sign_n it_o appear_v then_o that_o the_o sun_n approach_v near_a unto_o the_o earth_n in_o the_o southern_a part_n then_o in_o the_o northern_a and_o thus_o by_o its_o approach_v the_o south_n heat_v it_o so_o violent_o that_o it_o consume_v the_o water_n and_o scorch_v the_o earth_n which_o it_o do_v not_o at_o the_o north._n wherefore_o the_o water_n of_o the_o sea_n be_v brinish_a and_o salt_n and_o that_o such_o water_n be_v best_a for_o navigation_n the_o matter_n which_o cause_v the_o sea_n to_o be_v brinish_a and_o salt_n be_v because_o that_o there_o be_v two_o sort_n of_o vapour_n in_o the_o sea_n viz._n hot_a and_o moist_a and_o hot_a and_o dry_v the_o one_o whereof_o evaporate_n itself_o from_o the_o superficies_n of_o the_o sea_n and_o the_o other_o raise_v itself_o from_o its_o bottom_n by_o force_n of_o the_o sun_n and_o star_n which_o be_v the_o efficient_a cause_n of_o its_o vapour_n and_o because_o that_o the_o vapour_n of_o the_o water_n be_v very_o subtle_a between_o these_o two_o therefore_o it_o elevate_v itself_o in_o the_o air_n and_o be_v consume_v by_o the_o sun_n and_o there_o remain_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o exhalation_n of_o the_o earth_n the_o which_o be_v dissipate_v extend_v and_o mingle_v among_o the_o water_n as_o appear_v by_o the_o example_n of_o those_o who_o eat_v for_o the_o digest_v meat_n spread_v and_o divide_v itself_o through_o the_o member_n and_o all_o the_o gross_a and_o undigested_a
