A13217	Speculum mundi· Or A glasse representing the face of the world shewing both that it did begin, and must also end: the manner how, and time when, being largely examined. Whereunto is joyned an hexameron, or a serious discourse of the causes, continuance, and qualities of things in nature; occasioned as matter pertinent to the work done in the six dayes of the worlds creation.

be_v of_o a_o middle_a nature_n between_o earth_n and_o fire_n but_o a_o vapour_n be_v of_o a_o middle_a nature_n between_o water_n and_o air_n and_o further_o all_o vapour_n be_v warm_a and_o moist_a and_o will_v vapour_n easy_o be_v resolve_v into_o water_n much_o like_o the_o breath_n that_o proceed_v out_o of_o a_o man_n mouth_n or_o out_o of_o a_o pot_n of_o water_n stand_v on_o the_o fire_n and_o these_o be_v never_o draw_v high_a than_o the_o middle_a region_n of_o the_o air_n for_o there_o they_o be_v thicken_v and_o conglomerate_v by_o the_o cold_a into_o cloud_n and_o why_o vapour_n be_v warm_a be_v draw_v from_o that_o warm_a which_o be_v cold_a be_v not_o from_o any_o internal_a property_n of_o their_o own_o but_o they_o receive_v this_o quality_n from_o the_o power_n and_o

be_v cold_a again_o all_o fume_n be_v as_o smoke_n which_o be_v hot_a and_o dry_a fume_n which_o because_o they_o be_v thin_a and_o light_a than_o vapour_n they_o often_o pass_v the_o low_a and_o middle_a region_n of_o the_o air_n be_v sometime_o carry_v even_o beyond_o the_o high_a region_n itself_o and_o thus_o we_o see_v how_o there_o be_v two_o kind_n of_o exhalation_n the_o one_o somewhat_o hot_a but_o heavy_a moist_a and_o thick_a the_o other_o light_n dry_a burn_a pure_a and_o quick_a moreover_o these_o exhalation_n be_v the_o matter_n of_o meteor_n as_o have_v be_v say_v

and_o in_o come_v to_o particular_n it_o may_v be_v find_v that_o these_o kind_n of_o meteor_n concern_v which_o i_o speak_v be_v meteor_n of_o three_o sort_n either_o fiery_a watery_a or_o airy_a

the_o matter_n whereof_o they_o consist_v for_o if_o it_o be_v heavy_a and_o gross_a it_o can_v be_v carry_v high_a but_o if_o it_o be_v not_o so_o gross_a but_o rather_o light_a and_o more_o full_a
