reserve_v for_o the_o last_o of_o all_o as_o the_o haven_n and_o sabbath_n of_o all_o man_n contemplation_n we_o will_v now_o proceed_v to_o natural_a philosophy_n if_o then_o it_o be_v true_a that_o

divide_v natural_a philosophy_n into_o the_o i_o and_o the_o furnace_n and_o to_o make_v two_o profession_n or_o occupation_n of_o natural_a philosopher_n some_o to_o be_v pionner_n and_o some_o

term_n namely_o that_o these_o be_v the_o two_o part_n of_o natural_a philosophy_n the_o inqvisition_n of_o cause_n and_o the_o pro●…uction_n of_o effect_n speculative_a and_o operative_a natural_a

will_v make_v a_o request_n that_o for_o the_o latter_a or_o at_o least_o for_o a_o part_n thereof_o i_o may_v revive_v and_o reintegrate_a the_o misapply_v and_o abuse_v name_n of_o natural_a magic_n

although_o it_o be_v true_a and_o i_o know_v it_o well_o that_o ther●…_n be_v a_o intercourse_n between_o cause_n and_o eff●…_n so_o as_o both_o these_o knowledge_n 〈◊〉_d &_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d a_o great_a connexion_n between_o themselves_o yet_o because_o all_o true_a and_o fruitful_a natural_a philosophy_n have_v a_o double_a scale_n or_o ladder_n ascendent_n and_o descendent_a ascend_v from_o experiment_n to_o the_o invention_n of_o cause_n and_o descend_v from_o cause_n to_o the_o invention_n of_o new_a experiment_n therefore_o i_o judge_v it_o most_o requisite_a that_o these_o two_o

that_o in_o this_o and_o other_o particular_n wheresoever_o my_o conception_n &_o notion_n may_v differ_v from_o the_o ancient_a yet_o i_o be_o studious_a to_o keep_v the_o ancient_a term_n for_o hope_v well_o to_o deliver_v myself_o from_o mistake_v by_o the_o order_n and_o perspicuous_a express_v of_o that_o i_o do_v propound_v i_o be_o otherwise_o zealous_a and_o affectionate_a to_o recede_v as_o little_a from_o antiquity_n either_o in_o term_n or_o opinion_n as_o may_v stand_v with_o truth_n &_o the_o proficience_n of_o knowledge_n and_o herein_o i_o can_v a_o little_a marvel_n at_o the_o philosopher_n aristotle_n that_o do_v proceed_v in_o such_o a_o spirit_n of_o difference_n &_o contradiction_n towards_o all_o antiquity_n undertake_v not_o only_a to_o frame_v new_a word_n of_o science_n at_o pleasure_n but_o to_o confound_v and_o extinguish_v all_o ancient_a wisdom_n insomuch_o as_o he_o never_o name_v or_o mention_v a_o ancient_a author_n or_o opinion_n but_o to_o

with_o who_o it_o seem_v he_o do_v emulate_v the_o one_o to_o conquer_v all_o opinion_n as_o the_o other_o to_o conquer_v all_o nation_n wherein_o nevertheless_o it_o may_v be_v he_o may_v at_o some_o
