of_o the_o squeeze_v ocean_n do_v return_v into_o the_o ocean_n the_o universal_a intumescence_n pass_v twice_o every_o natural_a day_n do_v cause_v a_o double_a change_n of_o the_o polar_n tide_n in_o the_o same_o time_n that_o swiftness_n which_o befall_v our_o tide_n in_o these_o part_n be_v likewise_o cause_v through_o the_o shallowness_n of_o water_n which_o be_v necessary_o impel_v

the_o reason_n why_o the_o tide_n in_o some_o place_n do_v move_v swift_a than_o in_o other_o namely_o because_o the_o sea_n be_v more_o shallow_a there_o and_o therefore_o ship_n arrive_v near_o the_o shore_n make_v a_o great_a benefit_n of_o the_o tide_n than_o far_o from_o it_o the_o flood_n be_v common_o weak_a and_o slow_a near_o the_o shore_n and_o within_o the_o compass_n of_o these_o narrow_a sea_n but_o the_o ebb_n be_v strong_a and_o swift_a because_o the_o water_n do_v climb_v upward_o be_v force_v against_o their_o natural_a impulse_n and_o therefore_o resist_v more_o potent_o but_o return_v do_v descend_v fortify_v with_o their_o own_o natural_a inclination_n into_o place_n detumefy_v and_o therefore_o meet_v with_o no_o resistance_n on_o the_o contrary_a in_o the_o middle_n of_o the_o ocean_n the_o flood_n or_o rather_o intumescence_n be_v strong_a and_o swift_a than_o the_o ebb_n or_o detumescence_n because_o the_o universal_a bore_n which_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o flood_n or_o intumescence_n of_o the_o water_n do_v cause_v a_o great_a impulse_n of_o the_o water_n atop_o through_o her_o presence_n than_o when_o she_o be_v quite_o pass_v hence_o it_o be_v that_o ship_n sail_v from_o east-india_n westward_o do_v over_o run_v a_o large_a tract_n in_o one_o six_o hour_n of_o the_o intumescence_n than_o the_o other_o six_o of_o detumescence_n those_o

that_o the_o irish_a sea_n be_v direct_o opposite_a from_o the_o north_n to_o the_o ocean_n do_v undergo_v more_o violent_a tide_n than_o other_o because_o they_o receive_v the_o squeeze_v or_o

where_o meet_v with_o the_o irish_a sea_n do_v much_o intend_v the_o aforesaid_a roughness_n this_o also_o cause_v the_o duplication_n of_o tide_n in_o several_a part_n of_o the_o irish_a sea_n it_o will_v not_o be_v unprofitable_a to_o observe_v the_o stream_n of_o the_o tide_n where_o seaman_n do_v state_n a_o general_a rule_n viz._n that_o the_o tide_n set_v off_o athwart_o wherever_o it_o beat_v against_o a_o great_a promontory_n hence_o it_o be_v that_o throughout_o the_o channel_n the_o tide_n set_v off_o athwart_o in_o many_o place_n from_o the_o french_a coast_n towards_o the_o

in_o the_o no_o theast_n whence_o it_o be_v that_o there_o be_v no_o tide_n in_o the_o east_n or_o baltic_a sea_n beside_o 1._o because_o the_o tide_n of_o the_o german_a sea_n be_v clip_v off_o by_o
