may_v have_v some_o body_n to_o entertain_v i_o in_o the_o time_n of_o my_o brutification_n one_o day_n my_o male_n for_o they_o look_v upon_o i_o as_o the_o female_a do_v relate_v to_o i_o the_o reason_n of_o his_o travel_n about_o all_o the_o earth_n and_o what_o at_o last_o oblige_v he_o to_o quit_v it_o for_o the_o moon_n which_o be_v that_o he_o have_v not_o find_v one_o country_n where_o the_o imagination_n itself_o be_v free_a for_o look_v you_o say_v he_o if_o you_o have_v not_o a_o corner_a cap_n whatsoever_o you_o say_v though_o never_o so_o witty_a yet_o it_o be_v against_o the_o doctor_n opinion_n and_o you_o be_v a_o idiot_n a_o fool_n and_o something_o worse_a they_o will_v have_v put_v i_o in_o my_o country_n in_o the_o inquisition_n because_o i_o maintain_v to_o all_o the_o pedant_n tooth_n that_o there_o be_v a_o vacuum_n and_o that_o i_o know_v no_o matter_n in_o the_o world_n heavy_a than_o another_o i_o ask_v he_o upon_o what_o foundation_n he_o build_v so_o little_o receive_v a_o opinion_n oh_o say_v he_o to_o compass_v it_o you_o must_v suppose_v there_o be_v but_o one_o element_n for_o though_o we_o separate_o see_v water_n earth_n air_n and_o fire_n yet_o we_o never_o find_v they_o so_o perfect_o pure_a but_o that_o they_o be_v interchangeable_o engage_v one_o with_o another_o as_o for_o example_n when_o you_o see_v the_o fire_n it_o be_v not_o fire_n but_o air_n mighty_o extend_v air_n be_v but_o water_n much_o dilate_v water_n be_v but_o earth_n dissolve_v and_o earth_n itself_o be_v but_o condense_a water_n and_o thus_o serious_o to_o penetrate_v the_o matter_n you_o will_v find_v it_o be_v but_o one_o who_o like_o a_o excellent_a comedian_n play_v all_o several_a part_n under_o all_o diversity_n of_o habit_n otherwise_o we_o must_v admit_v as_o many_o element_n as_o there_o be_v sort_n of_o body_n and_o if_o you_o will_v ask_v i_o why_o the_o fire_n burn_v and_o the_o water_n cool_v be_v it_o be_v the_o selfsame_a matter_n i_o answer_v you_o that_o this_o matter_n agitate_v sympathetical_o according_a to_o the_o disposition_n it_o be_v then_o in_o fire_n that_o be_v nothing_o but_o earth_n more_o dilate_v than_o when_o it_o be_v to_o constitute_v air_n endeavour_v to_o convert_v to_o itself_o by_o sympathy_n what_o it_o meet_v with_o so_o the_o heat_n of_o a_o coal_n be_v the_o subtle_a and_o fit_a to_o penetrate_v a_o body_n slide_v through_o the_o pore_n of_o our_o bulk_n and_o in_o the_o first_o place_n because_o it_o be_v a_o new_a matter_n that_o fill_v we_o it_o cause_v a_o breathe_a sweat_n which_o sweat_v disperse_v by_o the_o fire_n convert_v itself_o into_o fume_n and_o become_v air_n this_o air_n be_v moreover_o melt_v by_o the_o heat_n of_o the_o antiperistass_n or_o adjoin_a star_n be_v call_v fire_n and_o the_o earth_n abandon_v by_o the_o cold_a and_o humidity_n which_o be_v ligament_n to_o the_o whole_a fall_v to_o earth_n water_n on_o the_o other_o side_n though_o it_o differ_v not_o from_o the_o matter_n of_o fire_n but_o in_o be_v more_o close_v it_o do_v not_o burn_v we_o because_o that_o we_o be_v close_v it_o sympathetical_o close_v the_o body_n it_o meet_v with_o and_o the_o cold_a that_o we_o feel_v be_v nothing_o but_o our_o flesh_n rally_v in_o a_o less_o compass_n draw_v with_o it_o part_n of_o the_o neighbour_n water_n of_o earth_n from_o whence_o it_o proceed_v that_o those_o that_o be_v sick_a of_o a_o dropsy_n convert_v all_o their_o nourishment_n into_o water_n and_o choleric_a man_n change_v the_o blood_n their_o liver_n create_v into_o choler_n suppose_v then_o that_o there_o be_v but_o one_o element_n and_o it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o all_o our_o body_n each_o according_a to_o its_o quality_n equal_o incline_v to_o the_o centre_n of_o the_o earth_n but_o you_o will_v ask_v i_o why_o that_o iron_n and_o other_o metal_n earth_n and_o wood_n have_v a_o swift_a descent_n towards_o the_o centre_n than_o a_o sponge_n but_o that_o it_o be_v full_a of_o air_n which_o natural_o tend_v upward_o but_o that_o be_v not_o at_o all_o the_o reason_n and_o thus_o i_o answer_v you_o though_o a_o rock_n fall_n with_o more_o rapidity_n than_o a_o feather_n yet_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o have_v the_o same_o inclination_n for_o that_o voyage_n as_o for_o example_n a_o cannon-bullet_n if_o the_o earth_n be_v pierce_v quite_o through_o will_v precipitate_v more_o furious_o towards_o its_o centre_n than_o a_o bladder_n fill_v with_o air_n and_o the_o reason_n be_v that_o that_o mass_n of_o the_o metal_n be_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o earth_n crowd_v into_o a_o little_a compass_n and_o that_o wind_v a_o little_a earth_n in_o a_o large_a compass_n for_o all_o the_o part_n of_o the_o matter_n which_o be_v lodge_v in_o the_o iron_n be_v join_v one_o with_o another_o augment_v their_o force_n by_o that_o union_n because_o be_v thus_o close_v they_o be_v a_o great_a many_o fight_v against_o a_o few_o since_o that_o parcel_n of_o air_n equal_a to_o the_o bullet_n in_o bigness_n be_v not_o equal_a in_o quantity_n without_o prove_v this_o by_o a_o multitude_n of_o argument_n in_o good_a faith_n how_o do_v you_o believe_v that_o a_o pike_n a_o sword_n or_o a_o dagger_n wound_v we_o if_o it_o be_v not_o because_o the_o steel_n be_v a_o matter_n where_o the_o part_n be_v close_o together_o and_o more_o within_o one_o another_o than_o our_o flesh_n who_o poriness_n and_o softness_n demonstrate_v that_o it_o contain_v a_o very_a little_a matter_n spread_v into_o a_o large_a compass_n and_o the_o point_n of_o the_o sword_n be_v a_o innumerable_a quantity_n of_o part_n against_o a_o little_a flesh_n force_v it_o to_o yield_v to_o the_o strong_a as_o a_o well-knit_a squadron_n will_v easy_o break_v a_o scatter_a batallion_n for_o why_o shall_v a_o bar_n of_o red_a hot_a iron_n cast_v a_o great_a heat_n than_o a_o log_n of_o the_o same_o bigness_n thorough_o light_v but_o because_o that_o more_o part_n be_v light_v or_o burn_v in_o a_o little_a space_n then_o in_o the_o wood_n which_o because_o it_o be_v spongeous_a include_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o emptiness_n or_o vacuum_n within_o it_o and_o a_o vacuum_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o privation_n of_o be_v can_v be_v susceptible_a of_o fire_n but_o may_v be_v you_o will_v object_v to_o i_o that_o i_o suppose_v a_o vacuum_n as_o if_o i_o have_v prove_v it_o and_o that_o it_o be_v that_o we_o dispute_v of_o well_o then_o i_o will_v now_o prove_v it_o to_o you_o and_o though_o that_o difficulty_n be_v the_o labour_n of_o the_o gordion-knot_n yet_o my_o arm_n be_v strong_a enough_o to_o become_v its_o alexander_n then_o let_v that_o vulgar_a beast_n who_o will_v not_o believe_v man_n to_o be_v man_n but_o that_o it_o be_v tell_v so_o answer_v i_o suppose_v that_o there_o be_v but_o one_o matter_n as_o i_o think_v i_o have_v sufficient_o prove_v how_o come_v it_o that_o according_a to_o its_o appetite_n or_o disposition_n it_o restrain_v or_o swell_v how_o come_v it_o that_o a_o piece_n of_o earth_n by_o condensity_n become_v a_o stone_n be_v it_o that_o the_o part_n of_o that_o pebble_n be_v retire_v one_o into_o another_o in_o such_o sort_n that_o where_o one_o grain_n of_o sand_n be_v lodge_v in_o the_o same_o point_n or_o place_n another_o can_v be_v intrude_v all_o this_o can_v be_v nay_o according_a to_o their_o own_o principle_n since_o body_n can_v penetrate_v one_o another_o but_o this_o matter_n be_v get_v close_o together_o or_o if_o you_o please_v grow_v less_o in_o fill_v some_o place_n that_o be_v empty_a before_o to_o say_v that_o it_o be_v incomprehensible_a there_o shall_v be_v a_o nothing_o in_o the_o world_n that_o we_o in_o part_n be_v compose_v of_o nothing_o pray_v why_o not_o be_v not_o the_o whole_a world_n encompass_v with_o nothing_o since_o you_o will_v grant_v that_o article_n confess_v that_o it_o be_v as_o easy_a for_o the_o world_n to_o have_v nothing_o in_o it_o as_o about_o it_o i_o foresee_v you_o will_v ask_v i_o why_o that_o water_n be_v restrain_v by_o frost_n in_o another_o vessel_n shall_v crack_v it_o if_o it_o be_v not_o to_o hinder_v a_o vacuum_n but_o my_o answer_n to_o it_o be_v that_o the_o air_n above_o it_o which_o tend_v as_o well_o as_o earth_n or_o water_n to_o the_o centre_n if_o it_o find_v in_o its_o journey_n a_o empty_a place_n present_o lodge_v itself_o if_o it_o find_v the_o pore_n of_o this_o vessel_n that_o be_v the_o way_n to_o this_o chamber_n of_o vacuum_n too_o straight_o too_o long_o and_o too_o crooked_a it_o by_o break_v it_o satisfy_v its_o impatience_n to_o arrive_v at_o its_o inn._n but_o without_o trouble_v myself_o to_o answer_v all_o their_o objection_n i_o dare_v bold_o say_v that_o

if_o there_o be_v no_o vacuum_n there_o will_v be_v no_o motion_n or_o we_o must_v admit_v penetration_n of_o body_n for_o it_o will_v be_v ridiculous_a to_o think_v that_o when_o a_o fly_n beat_v back_o with_o her_o wing_n a_o parcel_n of_o air_n and_o that_o parcel_n another_o and_o that_o other_o another_o and_o so_o by_o the_o stir_n of_o a_o flea_n little_a toe_n there_o rise_v a_o bum_n behind_o the_o world_n but_o when_o they_o can_v say_v no_o more_o they_o fly_v to_o rarefaction_n but_o in_o good_a faith_n how_o come_v it_o that_o when_o a_o body_n scarify_v itself_o that_o one_o particle_n can_v be_v separate_v from_o another_o without_o leave_v a_o empty_a place_n must_v not_o these_o two_o body_n that_o be_v just_a now_o separate_v have_v be_v at_o the_o same_o time_n in_o the_o same_o place_n of_o this_o and_o that_o in_o this_o sort_n they_o must_v be_v all_o three_o penetrate_v i_o expect_v you_o will_v ask_v i_o why_o through_o a_o hollow_a trunk_n a_o syringe_n or_o a_o pump_n they_o force_v the_o water_n up_o against_o its_o inclination_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v you_o it_o be_v by_o violence_n but_o it_o be_v not_o the_o fear_n of_o a_o vacuum_n that_o divert_v it_o from_o its_o way_n but_o be_v join_v to_o the_o air_n by_o a_o invisible_a conjuncture_n it_o be_v elevate_v with_o the_o air_n which_o hold_v it_o embrace_v this_o be_v not_o very_o difficult_a to_o comprehend_v when_o one_o know_v the_o perfect_a circle_n and_o delicate_a contexture_n of_o the_o element_n for_o if_o you_o attentive_o consider_v the_o slime_n which_o marry_v the_o earth_n to_o the_o water_n you_o will_v find_v that_o it_o be_v no_o more_o earth_n nor_o water_n but_o the_o interposer_n betwixt_o these_o two_o enemy_n the_o water_n and_o the_o air_n reciprocal_o form_v a_o mist_n which_o penetrate_v the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o humour_n to_o conclude_v a_o peace_n and_o the_o air_n be_v reconcile_v to_o the_o fire_n by_o a_o exhalation_n their_o mediator_n i_o believe_v he_o will_v have_v pursue_v his_o discourse_n but_o that_o our_o commons_o be_v bring_v and_o my_o body_n be_v very_o hungry_a close_v my_o ear_n to_o his_o discourse_n and_o open_v my_o mouth_n and_o stomach_n to_o the_o welcome_a meat_n i_o remember_v another_o time_n as_o we_o be_v philosophy_v for_o neither_o the_o one_o nor_o the_o other_o delight_v to_o discourse_n of_o mean_a thing_n i_o be_o very_o sorry_a say_v he_o to_o find_v a_o wit_n of_o your_o temper_n infect_v with_o vulgar_a error_n you_o must_v know_v in_o spite_n of_o aristotle_n pedantism_n of_o who_o all_o your_o school_n in_o france_n ring_n that_o all_o be_v in_o all_o that_o be_v for_o example_n that_o in_o water_n there_o be_v fire_n and_o in_o fire_n there_o be_v water_n in_o air_n earth_n and_o in_o earth_n air_n and_o though_o this_o opinion_n make_v your_o scholar_n open_v their_o eye_n as_o big_a as_o saucer_n yet_o it_o be_v easy_a to_o prove_v then_o to_o persuade_v they_o to_o it_o for_o i_o will_v first_o ask_v they_o if_o water_n will_v not_o engender_v fish_n which_o if_o they_o deny_v dig_v a_o pit_n and_o fill_v it_o with_o water_n which_o if_o they_o please_v they_o may_v strain_v to_o avoid_v all_o blind_a objection_n and_o if_o in_o some_o time_n you_o find_v not_o fish_v there_o i_o will_v be_v bind_v to_o swallow_v all_o the_o

now_o to_o find_v water_n in_o fire_n as_o i_o take_v it_o be_v no_o hard_a enterprise_n for_o let_v they_o pick_v out_o fire_n that_o be_v most_o separate_v from_o the_o matter_n if_o they_o please_v

that_o there_o be_v air_n in_o the_o earth_n they_o will_v not_o deny_v or_o else_o they_o never_o hear_v of_o the_o horrible_a earthquake_n wherewith_o the_o mountain_n of_o sicily_n be_v agitate_a and_o beside_o that_o we_o see_v the_o earth_n all_o vary_v to_o the_o very_a grain_n of_o sand_n that_o compose_v it_o and_o yet_o none_o say_v those_o pore_n contain_v a_o vacuum_n i_o hope_v then_o they_o will_v not_o be_v angry_a that_o i_o say_v air_n lodge_v there_o now_o i_o must_v prove_v that_o in_o air_n there_o be_v earth_n but_o i_o will_v scarce_o take_v the_o pain_n since_o you_o be_v
