the_o instance_n of_o those_o willow-top_n that_o grow_v to_o a_o extraordinary_a bigness_n in_o comparison_n of_o their_o trunk_n which_o undoubted_o proceed_v from_o hence_o that_o their_o

enough_o that_o the_o sap_n causes-the_a bigness_n of_o the_o branch_n in_o tree_n and_o the_o leave_n in_o all_o other_o plant_n almost_o in_o the_o same_o manner_n as_o the_o melt_a wax_n do_v in_o taper_n flambeaux_fw-fr and_o torch_n with_o this_o difference_n only_o which_o yet_o do_v not_o alter_v the_o comparison_n that_o the_o sap_n risesup_n between_o the_o wood_n and_o the_o bark_n aspire_v to_o the_o centre_n of_o light_a body_n whereas_o on_o the_o contrary_a the_o melt_a wax_n run_v downward_o along_o the_o suspend_v wyck_n because_o it_o tend_v to_o the_o centre_n of_o heavy_a body_n and_o if_o it_o happen_v that_o any_o of_o that_o melt_a wax_n stay_v any_o long_o in_o one_o part_n than_o in_o another_o it_o will_v not_o fail_v of_o produce_v the_o same_o effect_n that_o the_o sap_n do_v in_o the_o extremity_n of_o maim_a tree_n i_o can_v find_v any_o thing_n in_o mechanic_n fit_a to_o give_v a_o lively_a representation_n how_o sap_n though_o liquid_a itself_o
