i_o say_v again_o that_o this_o same_o celestial_a ray_n and_o astral_a spirit_n that_o be_v send_v down_o hither_o and_o here_o have_v its_o influence_n in_o this_o sublunary_a world_n do_v not_o

for_o this_o be_v that_o very_a thing_n according_a as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o question_n which_o he_o ought_v to_o prove_v to_o wit_n that_o upon_o metal_n and_o paper_n ignorant_o engrave_v and_o

star_n have_v their_o secret_a influence_n upon_o these_o inferior_a body_n and_o therefore_o he_o have_v take_v much_o pain_n to_o very_o little_a purpose_n in_o prove_v of_o it_o to_o wit_n that_o

especial_o of_o which_o there_o be_v great_a question_n to_o be_v make_v the_o first_o be_v this_o whether_o the_o star_n have_v in_o they_o any_o such_o virtue_n of_o produce_v fortuitous_a event_n and_o mere_a casualty_n and_o such_o effect_n as_o be_v not_o natural_a but_o whole_o depend_v upon_o the_o will_n and_o good_a pleasure_n of_o men._n and_o the_o other_o be_v this_o to_o wit_n why_o they_o do_v not_o communicate_v those_o their_o influential_a virtue_n unto_o metal_n as_o they_o be_v of_o themselves_o but_o only_o unto_o such_o of_o they_o as_o be_v engrave_v with_o character_n for_o what_o have_v those_o character_n to_o do_v with_o the_o star_n and_o what_o have_v mars_n in_o the_o heaven_n to_o do_v with_o the_o image_n of_o a_o arm_a man_n or_o what_o have_v saturn_n to_o do_v with_o a_o old_a man_n hold_v the_o plough_n and_o so_o of_o all_o other_o the_o planet_n and_o the_o very_a same_o be_v likewise_o to_o be_v say_v the_o case_n stand_v all_o one_o touch_v the_o sign_n of_o the_o zodiac_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o asterism_n unto_o which_o name_n have_v be_v give_v by_o man_n according_a to_o their_o will_n and_o pleasure_n for_o the_o teach_n and_o instruct_v of_o other_o in_o the_o ground_n of_o astronomy_n who_o can_v if_o they_o have_v so_o please_v have_v give_v some_o other_o name_n unto_o those_o asterism_n which_o we_o now_o from_o they_o call_v pisces_fw-la or_o sagitarius_n like_a as_o the_o hollander_n even_o in_o our_o age_n have_v most_o free_o and_o according_a as_o they_o think_v good_a impose_v name_n upon_o all_o those_o meridional_a sign_n that_o they_o observe_v in_o their_o navigation_n to_o the_o southerly_a part_n and_o so_o the_o sign_n and_o figure_n likewise_o denote_v those_o asterism_n have_v be_v impose_v according_a to_o the_o will_n and_o fancy_n of_o man_n and_o therefore_o we_o conclude_v that_o there_o be_v no_o necessity_n at_o all_o why_o the_o virtue_n of_o any_o star_n shall_v insinuate_v itself_o into_o any_o such_o character_n as_o be_v impose_v mere_o by_o the_o will_n and_o fancy_n of_o man_n although_o it_o be_v engrave_v and_o inscribe_v at_o such_o a_o certain_a time_n the_o star_n be_v then_o in_o such_o or_o such_o a_o position_n and_o therefore_o the_o whole_a controversy_n at_o length_n return_v to_o this_o that_o from_o a_o natural_a cause_n there_o can_v no_o such_o
