plain_o appear_v that_o not_o without_o great_a mystery_n the_o creator_n settle_v four_o foundation_n of_o all_o this_o mundane_a frame_n which_o in_o admirable_a proportion_n do_v accord_v

dance_n or_o else_o as_o if_o they_o be_v conjoin_v and_o link_v together_o as_o with_o chain_n and_o buckle_n and_o therefore_o the_o water_n be_v moist_a and_o cold_a retain_v the_o moisture_n as_o

some_o measure_n participate_v in_o heat_n with_o the_o nature_n of_o fire_n wherefore_o as_o the_o earth_n accord_v in_o coldness_n with_o the_o water_n so_o be_v the_o water_n answerable_a in_o

above_o all_o the_o academic_n have_v invent_v a_o goodly_a concord_n between_o these_o element_n in_o their_o discourse_n of_o the_o quadruple_a proportion_n from_o which_o only_o their_o musical_a proportion_n do_v proceed_v for_o if_o one_o pass_v far_o man_n ear_n seem_v to_o be_v offend_v they_o say_v then_o element_n of_o the_o harmony_n of_o the_o element_n that_o the_o fire_n be_v twice_o more_o subtle_a than_o the_o air_n thrice_o more_o mooveable_a and_o four_o time_n more_o pierce_n likewise_o that_o the_o air_n be_v twice_o more_o sharp_a than_o the_o water_n thrice_o more_o

this_o proportion_n have_v they_o find_v out_o the_o harmony_n of_o the_o element_n and_o show_v that_o though_o the_o fire_n be_v sharp_a subtle_a and_o mooveable_a the_o air_n subtle_a mooveable_a and_o moist_a the_o water_n mooveable_a moist_a and_o corporal_a the_o earth_n corporal_a immooveable_a and_o dry_a yet_o be_v there_o a_o certain_a accord_n and_o union_n between_o they_o because_o that_o betwixt_o the_o fire_n and_o the_o earth_n the_o air_n and_o water_n have_v be_v place_v by_o such_o a_o covenant_n that_o there_o be_v the_o same_o respect_n betwixt_o the_o fire_n and_o the_o air_n that_o be_v between_o the_o air_n and_o the_o water_n and_o between_o the_o water_n and_o the_o earth_n and_o again_o that_o such_o as_o the_o earth_n be_v towards_o the_o water_n such_o be_v the_o water_n towards_o the_o air_n and_o the_o air_n towards_o the_o fire_n in_o correspondency_n of_o quality_n and_o harmonious_a contrariety_n wherefore_o they_o conclude_v that_o the_o harmony_n be_v on_o all_o side_n so_o great_a among_o the_o element_n that_o it_o be_v no_o marvel_n if_o in_o their_o proper_a place_n and_o in_o their_o compound_n they_o maintain_v and_o repose_v themselves_o with_o very_o great_a and_o friendly_a concord_n whereby_o it_o appear_v that_o none_o can_v induce_v a_o goodly_a reason_n why_o the_o water_n do_v not_o overflow_v the_o earth_n be_v high_a than_o it_o then_o to_o say_v that_o it_o will_v not_o swerve_v from_o this_o agreement_n but_o further_o concern_v this_o matter_n what_o shall_v we_o say_v of_o those_o which_o accept_v but_o of_o three_o element_n namely_o the_o air_n the_o water_n and_o the_o earth_n and_o reject_v the_o elementary_a fire_n i_o will_v fain_o hear_v you_o aram_n discourse_v thereof_o of_o the_o opinion_n
