nothing_o but_o water_n rarify_v and_o subtilise_v by_o heat_n as_o also_o when_o they_o be_v reduce_v into_o water_n by_o condensation_n this_o water_n be_v nothing_o but_o air_n condense_v and_o so_o air_n and_o water_n differ_v not_o but_o by_o rarefaction_n and_o condensation_n which_o be_v but_o accident_n and_o consequent_o can_v make_v different_a species_n of_o element_n both_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o may_v be_v see_v in_o the_o aeolipila_n of_o vitruvius_n out_o of_o which_o the_o heat_n of_o fire_n cause_v the_o water_n which_o be_v therein_o to_o issue_n in_o the_o form_n of_o air_n and_o a_o impetuous_a wind_n which_o be_v the_o very_a image_n of_o that_o which_o nature_n ordinary_o do_v i_o conceive_v also_o that_o the_o air_n be_v neither_o hot_a nor_o moist_a nor_o light_n as_o philosopher_n common_o hold_v for_o as_o to_o the_o first_o the_o air_n be_v much_o more_o cold_a than_o hot_a and_o for_o one_o torrid_a zone_n there_o be_v two_o cold_a beside_o heat_n be_v but_o accidental_a to_o it_o be_v cause_v by_o the_o incidence_n and_o reflection_n of_o the_o ray_n of_o the_o sun_n so_o that_o this_o cause_n fail_v in_o the_o night_n when_o the_o sun_n shine_v not_o or_o in_o winter_n when_o its_o ray_n be_v very_o oblique_a and_o their_o reflection_n weak_a or_o in_o the_o middle_a region_n whether_o the_o reflection_n reach_v not_o the_o air_n become_v cold_a and_o consequent_o in_o its_o natural_a quality_n since_o there_o be_v no_o external_n cause_v that_o produce_v that_o coldness_n as_o for_o the_o second_o the_o air_n dry_v more_o than_o it_o moisten_v and_o if_o it_o moisten_v it_o be_v when_o it_o be_v cold_a and_o condense_v and_o consequent_o mix_v with_o many_o particle_n of_o water_n and_o when_o it_o dry_v it_o be_v by_o its_o own_o heat_n for_o the_o definition_n which_o aristotle_n give_v of_o humid_a and_o moist_a be_v only_o proper_a to_o every_o thing_n which_o be_v fluid_a and_o not_o stable_n and_o in_o this_o respect_n agree_v to_o the_o air_n which_o be_v fluid_a and_o give_v way_n to_o all_o sort_n of_o body_n as_o for_o the_o last_o which_o be_v its_o levity_n the_o harmony_n of_o the_o world_n by_o which_o all_o thing_n conspire_v to_o union_n and_o so_o to_o one_o common_a centre_n seem_v to_o contradict_v it_o for_o if_o the_o air_n have_v its_o motion_n from_o the_o centre_n the_o part_n of_o the_o world_n may_v be_v disunite_v for_o the_o air_n will_v escape_v away_o there_o be_v no_o restraint_n upon_o it_o by_o any_o external_n surface_n moreover_o if_o we_o judge_v the_o air_n light_n because_o we_o see_v it_o mount_v above_o water_n we_o must_v also_o say_v that_o wax_n and_o oil_n be_v light_n since_o we_o observe_v the_o same_o in_o they_o but_o that_o which_o they_o do_v be_v not_o mount_v above_o the_o water_n but_o be_v repel_v by_o the_o water_n and_o so_o the_o principal_a of_o motion_n be_v external_n the_o same_o be_v violent_a and_o not_o natural_a whereas_o when_o the_o air_n descend_v into_o the_o well_o it_o descend_v thither_o natural_o there_o be_v no_o external_n cause_n of_o that_o descent_n for_o vacuum_n not_o exist_v in_o nature_n can_v produce_v this_o effect_n since_o according_a to_o the_o receive_a maxim_n of_o a_o thing_n which_o be_v not_o there_o can_v be_v no_o action_n beside_o it_o will_v be_v it_o self-cause_n of_o its_o own_o destruction_n and_o do_v contrary_a to_o its_o own_o intention_n preserve_v nature_n by_o this_o action_n whereas_o it_o be_v a_o enemy_n to_o it_o and_o seek_v the_o ruin_n thereof_o last_o since_o many_o particle_n of_o air_n be_v condense_v and_o press_v together_o give_v ponderosity_n to_o a_o thing_n as_o be_v see_v in_o a_o baloon_n or_o football_n it_o must_v needs_o be_v ponderous_a itself_o for_o many_o light_a body_n join_v together_o be_v more_o light_n the_o second_o say_v that_o the_o difference_n between_o water_n and_o air_n be_v as_o clear_a as_o either_o of_o those_o element_n for_o that_o the_o vapour_n which_o arise_v from_o the_o water_n by_o mean_n of_o the_o sun_n heat_n and_o the_o wind_n which_o issue_v out_o of_o the_o abovesaid_a vessel_n full_a of_o water_n and_o place_v upon_o the_o fire_n can_v be_v call_v air_n save_v abusive_o but_o they_o be_v mixt_n actual_o compose_v of_o water_n and_o fire_n for_o the_o ray_n of_o the_o sun_n enter_v into_o the_o water_n raise_v it_o into_o vapour_n and_o the_o fire_n infinuate_v itself_o by_o the_o pore_n of_o the_o vessel_n into_o the_o water_n which_o it_o contain_v cause_v the_o same_o to_o come_v forth_o in_o the_o form_n of_o wind_n which_o be_v compose_v of_o fire_n and_o water_n of_o fire_n because_o the_o property_n of_o fire_n be_v to_o mount_v on_o high_a it_o lift_v up_o that_o subtilise_v water_n with_o itself_o of_o water_n because_o this_o vapour_n have_v some_o coldness_n and_o humidity_n whence_o meet_v with_o a_o solid_a body_n it_o be_v resolve_v into_o water_n because_o the_o fire_n alone_o pass_v through_o the_o pore_n of_o that_o body_n beside_o water_n be_v moist_a and_o air_n on_o the_o contrary_a dry_a as_o the_o precedent_a opinion_n import_v they_o can_v be_v the_o same_o thing_n and_o since_o all_o alteration_n be_v make_v between_o two_o different_a thing_n water_n and_o air_n transmute_v one_o into_o another_o as_o it_o have_v be_v say_v can_v be_v the_o same_o last_o as_o there_o be_v two_o element_n whereof_o one_o be_v absolute_o light_n as_o the_o fire_n the_o other_o absolute_o heavy_a as_o the_o earth_n so_o there_o be_v two_o which_o be_v such_o but_o in_o comparison_n with_o the_o rest_n the_o water_n compare_v with_o the_o earth_n be_v light_a because_o it_o float_v above_o it_o the_o air_n in_o comparison_n of_o the_o water_n be_v light_a too_o because_o it_o be_v above_o it_o so_o that_o when_o it_o descend_v low_a than_o the_o water_n into_o the_o cavern_n of_o the_o earth_n it_o be_v nature_n that_o oblige_v it_o to_o renounce_v its_o proper_a and_o particular_a interest_n for_o preserve_v the_o general_a one_o which_o be_v destroy_v by_o the_o vacuum_n not_o that_o the_o vacuum_n be_v the_o cause_n thereof_o for_o it_o have_v no_o existence_n and_o the_o air_n wherewith_o the_o baloon_n be_v fill_v render_v the_o same_o more_o heavy_a because_o it_o be_v

find_v in_o our_o region_n the_o common_a opinion_n have_v also_o more_o probability_n which_o hold_v that_o the_o air_n be_v hot_a and_o moist_a hot_a because_o it_o be_v rare_a and_o light_a which_o be_v effect_n of_o heat_n moist_a because_o it_o be_v difficult_o contain_v within_o its_o own_o bound_n and_o easy_o within_o those_o of_o another_o thence_o it_o be_v that_o the_o more_o body_n partake_v of_o air_n the_o more_o they_o have_v of_o those_o quality_n as_o we_o see_v in_o oil_n which_o be_v hot_a be_v easy_o set_v on_o flame_n and_o moist_a in_o that_o it_o great_o humect_v and_o easy_o expand_v itself_o on_o all_o side_n but_o if_o the_o air_n seem_v sometime_o to_o be_v cold_a it_o be_v by_o accident_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o cold_a vapour_n wherewith_o it_o be_v fill_v at_o that_o time_n the_o three_o say_v that_o he_o conceive_v that_o contrary_o the_o air_n be_v cold_a and_o dry_a 1._o because_o it_o freeze_v the_o earth_n and_o water_n in_o winter_n and_o therefore_o be_v cold_a in_o either_o of_o they_o 2._o because_o it_o refresh_v the_o lung_n and_o by_o its_o coolness_n temper_v the_o extreme_a heat_n of_o the_o heart_n and_o of_o the_o other_o part_n which_o it_o can_v not_o do_v if_o it_o be_v hot_a 3._o inasmuch_o as_o hot_a thing_n expose_v to_o the_o air_n be_v cool_v which_o they_o will_v not_o be_v but_o at_o least_o preserve_v their_o heat_n be_v in_o a_o place_n of_o the_o same_o nature_n 4._o the_o more_o it_o be_v agitate_a the_o more_o it_o refresh_v as_o we_o see_v by_o fan_n because_o then_o the_o unessential_a thing_n be_v separate_v from_o it_o it_o be_v more_o close_a and_o unite_a quite_o contrary_a to_o the_o other_o element_n which_o grow_v hot_a by_o be_v agitate_a 5._o in_o the_o night_n time_n the_o more_o pure_a and_o serene_a and_o void_a of_o mixture_n the_o air_n be_v the_o cold_a it_o be_v 6._o thence_o it_o be_v that_o flame_n burn_v less_o than_o boil_a water_n or_o hot_a iron_n because_o in_o flame_n there_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o air_n which_o be_v cold_a than_o water_n and_o iron_n repress_v more_o the_o strength_n of_o the_o fire_n last_o since_o according_a to_o aristotle_n

say_v of_o its_o corruption_n be_v take_v improper_o it_o be_v for_o that_o it_o be_v cold_a and_o dry_a both_o these_o quality_n be_v enemy_n to_o putrefication_n as_o on_o the_o contrary_a hot_a and_o moist_a be_v friend_n to_o it_o and_o the_o usual_a way_n that_o lead_v thereunto_o wherefore_o if_o the_o air_n be_v hot_a and_o moist_a it_o will_v putrify_v incessant_o beside_o it_o will_v be_v easy_o inflame_v be_v so_o near_o neighbour_n to_o the_o elementary_a fire_n which_o can_v have_v no_o food_n more_o proper_a than_o it_o the_o four_o say_v it_o be_v true_a all_o antiquity_n believe_v the_o air_n supreme_o moist_a and_o moderate_o hot_a 1._o for_o salve_v the_o harmony_n of_o the_o universe_n the_o air_n become_v symbolical_a with_o the_o fire_n by_o its_o heat_n and_o with_o the_o water_n by_o its_o moisture_n 2._o because_o we_o see_v heat_n produce_v air_n which_o thence_o must_v have_v affinity_n of_o nature_n with_o its_o progenitor_n 3._o it_o be_v light_a and_o by_o consequence_n hot_a 4._o experience_n show_v we_o this_o in_o winter_n time_n in_o subterraneous_a place_n where_o the_o air_n be_v hot_a because_o the_o external_a cold_a stop_v the_o

the_o three_o that_o this_o cold_a vapour_n be_v light_a as_o well_o as_o a_o hot_a exhalation_n to_o the_o four_o experience_n be_v oppose_v to_o experience_n for_o in_o summer_n the_o air_n be_v cold_a in_o the_o cavity_n of_o the_o earth_n as_o well_o as_o hot_a there_o in_o the_o winter_n which_o proceed_v not_o from_o the_o air_n but_o from_o the_o sense_n which_o whereas_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v void_a of_o the_o quality_n of_o the_o object_n be_v here_o prepossesed_a therewith_o the_o modern_n affirm_v with_o more_o probability_n that_o the_o air_n be_v cold_a 1._o because_o in_o

1._o that_o the_o middle_a region_n of_o the_o air_n be_v not_o so_o cold_a of_o its_o own_o nature_n but_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o vapour_n which_o refrigerate_v it_o uniform_o every_o where_o though_o those_o vapour_n ascend_v not_o equal_o from_o the_o water_n but_o more_o in_o one_o place_n then_o in_o a_o other_o just_a as_o the_o heat_n of_o the_o fire_n which_o be_v direct_o under_o
