first_o to_o the_o north_n then_o to_o the_o south_n he_o see_v they_o be_v like_o two_o crystal_n squirt_n which_o some_o call_v syringe_n those_o suck_n and_o draw_v in_o a_o certain_a quantity_n of_o water_n from_o those_o honey-comb-cloud_n and_o when_o they_o be_v full_a they_o spout_v that_o water_n with_o such_o a_o force_n back_o that_o it_o go_v a_o great_a length_n and_o the_o

perspective_n to_o the_o midst_n between_o the_o east_n and_o the_o west_n which_o be_v call_v the_o torrid_a zone_n he_o perceive_v it_o be_v like_o a_o cymbal_n of_o fire_n which_o have_v three_o
