and_o general_a cause_n be_v the_o sun_n itself_o which_o attenuate_v and_o rarefi_v the_o air_n by_o his_o fiery_a beam_n especial_o that_o on_o which_o he_o send_v forth_o his_o perpendicular_a

the_o vicine_fw-la air_n with_o a_o great_a force_n and_o when_o that_o the_o sun_n be_v move_v round_o from_o the_o east_n into_o the_o west_n the_o chief_a force_n of_o the_o air_n cause_v by_o he_o be_v towards_o the_o west_n and_o a_o sign_n of_o it_o may_v be_v that_o in_o many_o place_n of_o the_o torrid_a zone_n and_o every_o where_n in_o the_o sea_n a_o continual_a easterly_a wind_n do_v blow_v viz._n the_o sun_n thrust_v forward_o the_o air_n from_o the_o east_n towards_o the_o west_n and_o exceed_v not_o the_o torrid_a zone_n indeed_o the_o rarefy_a air_n be_v thrust_v forward_o circular_o towards_o all_o the_o quarter_n north_n east_n south_n west_n but_o yet_o it_o be_v not_o admit_v in_o all_o quarter_n but_o the_o more_o vehement_a protrusion_n be_v towards_o the_o west_n because_o that_o the_o sun_n move_v towards_o that_o quarter_n therefore_o the_o wind_n be_v almost_o continual_o more_o sensible_a in_o the_o torrid_a zone_n towards_o this_o quarter_n but_o in_o our_o zone_n for_o many_o day_n in_o the_o morning_n before_o the_o rise_n of_o the_o sun_n and_o after_o that_o where_o for_o the_o most_o part_n other_o wind_n do_v cease_v of_o other_o quarter_n some_o be_v sometime_o more_o dispose_v than_o other_o to_o receive_v this_o force_n therefore_o where_o the_o protrusion_n become_v great_a towards_o the_o north_n the_o south_n wind_n be_v say_v to_o blow_v when_o that_o it_o be_v thrust_v towards_o the_o east_n than_o the_o west_n wind_n blow_v when_o towards_o the_o south_n the_o north_n and_o so_o for_o other_o quarter_n and_o it_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o when_o this_o protrusion_n be_v make_v to_o any_o quarter_n lie_v without_o those_o four_o cardinal_n quarter_n then_o in_o divers_a region_n a_o diverse_a wind_n shall_v be_v

that_o they_o make_v a_o perpendicular_a ●ine_o over_o the_o horizon_n the_o cause_n be_v by_o reason_n that_o the_o air_n in_o a_o spherical_a figure_n do_v encompass_v the_o earth_n and_o the_o

we_o may_v suppose_v the_o air_n to_o be_v force_v according_a to_o a_o transverse_a line_n yet_o because_o that_o there_o be_v a_o lesser_a force_n from_o the_o side_n and_o great_a resistance_n
