for_o assure_o if_o the_o iron_n stand_v so_o in_o the_o northern_a hemisphere_n it_o will_v turn_v to_o the_o north_n and_o if_o in_o the_o southern_a hemisphere_n it_o will_v turn_v to_o the_o

as_o have_v be_v already_o declare_v the_o virtue_n which_o come_v out_o of_o the_o earth_n in_o the_o northern_a hemisphere_n will_v give_v to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o iron_n next_o it_o a_o

question_n be_v why_o a_o loadstone_n seem_v to_o love_v iron_n another_o better_o than_o another_o loadstone_n the_o answer_n be_v because_o iron_n be_v indifferent_a in_o all_o its_o part_n to_o receive_v the_o impression_n of_o a_o loadstone_n whereas_o another_o loadstone_n receive_v it_o only_o in_o a_o determinate_a part_n and_o therefore_o a_o loadstone_n draw_v iron_n more_o easy_o than_o it_o can_v another_o loadstone_n because_o it_o find_v repugnance_n in_o the_o part_n of_o another_o loadstone_n unless_o it_o be_v exact_o situate_v in_o a_o right_a position_n beside_o iron_n seem_v to_o be_v compare_v to_o a_o loadstone_n like_o a_o more_o humid_a body_n to_o a_o dryer_n of_o the_o same_o nature_n and_o the_o difference_n of_o male_a and_o female_a sex_n in_o animal_n manifest_o show_v the_o great_a appetence_n of_o conjunction_n between_o moisture_n and_o dryness_n when_o they_o belong_v to_o body_n of_o the_o same_o species_n another_o question_n be_v that_o great_a one_o why_o a_o loadstone_n cape_v itself_o with_o steel_n take_v up_o more_o iron_n than_o it_o will_v do_v if_o it_o be_v without_o that_o cape_v another_o conclusion_n like_o this_o be_v that_o if_o by_o a_o loadstone_n you_o take_v up_o a_o iron_n and_o by_o that_o iron_n a_o second_o iron_n and_o then_o pull_v away_o the_o second_o iron_n the_o first_o iron_n in_o some_o position_n

more_o strong_o the_o loadstone_n will_v be_v move_v to_o it_o and_o the_o more_o forcible_o stick_v to_o it_o the_o reason_n of_o all_o these_o three_o we_o must_v give_v at_o once_o for_o they_o hang_v all_o upon_o on_o string_n and_o in_o my_o conceit_n neither_o gilbert_n nor_o galileo_n have_v hit_v upon_o the_o right_n as_o for_o gilbert_n he_o think_v that_o in_o iron_n there_o be_v original_o the_o virtue_n of_o the_o loadstone_n but_o that_o it_o be_v as_o it_o be_v asleep_a till_o by_o the_o touch_n of_o the_o loadstone_n it_o be_v awake_v and_o set_v on_o work_n and_o therefore_o the_o virtue_n of_o bath_n join_v together_o be_v great_a than_o the_o virtue_n of_o the_o loadstone_n alone_o but_o if_o this_o be_v the_o reason_n the_o virtue_n of_o the_o iron_n will_v be_v great_a in_o every_o regard_n and_o not_o only_o in_o stick_v or_o in_o take_v up_o whereas_o himself_o confess_v that_o a_o cape_v stone_n draw_v no_o further_a than_o a_o naked_a stone_n nor_o

they_o several_o the_o virtue_n of_o the_o loadstone_n be_v great_a than_o the_o virtue_n of_o the_o iron_n why_o shall_v not_o the_o middle_a iron_n stick_v close_o to_o the_o stone_n then_o to_o the_o further_a iron_n which_o must_v of_o necessity_n have_v less_o virtue_n galileo_n yield_v the_o cause_n of_o this_o effect_n that_o when_o a_o iron_n touch_v a_o iron_n there_o be_v more_o

leave_v the_o stone_n and_o stick_v to_o the_o iron_n out_o of_o which_o he_o infer_v that_o it_o be_v the_o multitude_n of_o part_n which_o cause_v the_o close_o and_o strong_a stick_v and_o it_o

whereas_o gilbert_n cape_v his_o with_o convex_a iron_n which_o not_o apply_v themselves_o to_o other_o iron_n so_o strong_o or_o with_o so_o many_o port_n as_o galileo_n do_v will_v not_o by_o much_o take_v up_o so_o great_a weight_n as_o he_o nevertheless_o it_o seem_v not_o to_o i_o that_o his_o answer_n be_v sufficient_a or_o that_o his_o reason_n convince_v for_o we_o be_v to_o consider_v that_o the_o virtue_n which_o he_o put_v in_o the_o iron_n must_v according_a to_o his_o own_o supposition_n proceed_v from_o the_o loadstone_n and_o then_o what_o import_v it_o whether_o the_o

all_o this_o conduce_v nothing_o to_o make_v the_o virtue_n great_a than_o it_o be_v since_o no_o more_o virtue_n can_v go_v from_o one_o iron_n to_o the_o other_o then_o go_v from_o the_o loadstone_n to_o the_o first_o iron_n and_o if_o this_o virtue_n can_v tie_v the_o first_o iron_n to_o the_o loadstone_n it_o can_v proceed_v out_o of_o this_o virtue_n that_o the_o second_o iron_n be_v tie_v to_o the_o first_o again_o if_o a_o paper_n be_v put_v betwixt_o the_o cap_n and_o another_o iron_n it_o do_v not_o hinder_v the_o magnetical_a virtue_n from_o pass_v through_o it_o to_o the_o iron_n

render_v quite_o useless_a therefore_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o this_o virtue_n must_v be_v put_v in_o something_o else_o and_o not_o in_o the_o application_n of_o the_o magnetical_a virtue_n and_o to_o examine_v his_o reason_n particular_o it_o may_v very_o well_o fall_v out_o that_o whatever_o the_o cause_n be_v the_o point_n of_o a_o needle_n may_v be_v too_o little_a to_o make_v a_o exact_a

pitcoal_n that_o near_a hand_n burn_v more_o fierce_o in_o the_o same_o manner_n the_o loadstone_n will_v draw_v further_o without_o a_o cap_n then_o with_o one_o but_o with_o a_o cap_n it_o stick_v

now_o this_o modification_n may_v proceed_v either_o from_o the_o multitude_n of_o part_n which_o come_v out_o of_o the_o loadstone_n and_o be_v as_o it_o be_v stop_v in_o the_o iron_n &_o so_o the_o

the_o little_a loadstone_n become_v strong_a by_o augment_v its_o innate_a virtue_n in_o some_o degree_n now_o then_o the_o go_v of_o the_o iron_n to_o either_o of_o the_o lodestone_n must_v follow_v

their_o chief_a issue_n the_o reason_n of_o the_o first_o part_n of_o this_o position_n be_v because_o no_o particular_a body_n can_v be_v exempt_a from_o the_o law_n of_o all_o body_n and_o we_o have_v above_o declare_v that_o every_o physical_a body_n must_v of_o necessity_n have_v a_o orb_n of_o fluour_n or_o a_o sphere_n of_o activity_n about_o it_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o second_o part_n be_v that_o see_v these_o fluour_n proceed_v out_o of_o the_o very_a substance_n and_o nature_n of_o the_o loadstone_n they_o can_v choose_v but_o be_v find_v of_o both_o sort_n in_o every_o part_n how_o little_a soever_o it_o be_v where_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o loadstone_n reside_v the_o reason_n of_o the_o three_o part_n be_v that_o because_o the_o polar_n emanation_n tend_v whole_o towards_o the_o pole_n each_o of_o they_o to_o their_o proper_a pole_n it_o follow_v that_o in_o every_o hemisphere_n both_o those_o which_o come_v from_o the_o contrary_a hemisphere_n and_o those_o which_o be_v breed_v in_o that_o they_o go_v out_o at_o be_v all_o assemble_v in_o that_o hemisphere_n and_o therefore_o of_o necessity_n it_o must_v be_v strong_a in_o that_o kind_n of_o fluour_n than_o the_o opposite_a end_n be_v all_o which_o appear_v true_a in_o experience_n for_o if_o a_o long_a iron_n touch_v any_o part_n of_o that_o hemisphere_n of_o a_o loadstone_n which_o tend_v to_o

another_o loadstone_n that_o be_v if_o each_o of_o these_o part_n be_v divide_v from_o their_o whole_n &_o each_o of_o they_o make_v a_o whole_a by_o itself_o they_o may_v be_v so_o join_v together_o as_o they_o will_v agree_v nevertheless_o when_o the_o part_n be_v in_o their_o two_o whole_n they_o do_v not_o all_o of_o they_o agree_v together_o but_o of_o two_o loadstone_n only_o the_o pole_n

of_o this_o be_v because_o the_o fluour_n which_o issue_n out_o of_o the_o stone_n be_v in_o certain_a different_a degree_n in_o several_a part_n of_o the_o entire_a loadstone_n whereby_o it_o

and_o not_o so_o well_o if_o any_o other_o part_n lie_v towards_o it_o and_o according_o experience_n show_v that_o if_o you_o put_v the_o pole_n of_o a_o loadstone_n towards_o the_o middle_n of_o a_o

of_o they_o those_o be_v the_o line_n of_o the_o needle_n length_n will_v bend_v towards_o the_o pole_n of_o the_o stone_n except_v if_o they_o touch_v by_o the_o equator_fw-la of_o the_o stone_n &_o the_o middle_n of_o the_o needle_n yet_o not_o so_o that_o if_o you_o draw_v out_o the_o line_n of_o the_o needle_n length_n it_o will_v go_v through_o the_o pole_n of_o the_o stone_n unless_o they_o

the_o
needle_n will_v lie_v parallel_n to_o the_o axis_fw-la of_o the_o stone_n and_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o be_v manifest_a for_o in_o that_o case_n the_o two_o pole_n be_v equidistant_a to_o the_o needle_n they_o draw_v it_o equal_o and_o by_o consequence_n the_o needle_n must_v remain_v parallel_n to_o the_o axis_fw-la of_o the_o stone_n nor_o do_v it_o import_v that_o the_o inequality_n of_o

can_v be_v able_a to_o draw_v the_o strong_a pole_n of_o the_o needle_n and_o by_o consequence_n that_o the_o needle_n shall_v not_o lie_v parallel_n to_o the_o axis_fw-la of_o the_o stone_n but_o incline_v somewhat_o to_o the_o strong_a pole_n of_o it_o for_o after_o you_o have_v well_o consider_v the_o matter_n you_o will_v find_v that_o the_o strength_n of_o the_o pole_n of_o the_o stone_n
