when_o it_o decline_v from_o the_o ecliptic_a towards_o the_o south_n and_o therefore_o then_o it_o more_o swift_o fill_v but_o the_o cause_n why_o then_o the_o flux_n be_v no_o long_o protract_v even_o until_o the_o moon_n come_v to_o the_o meridian_n may_v be_v by_o reason_n that_o the_o moon_n force_v the_o sea_n more_o near_o the_o sea_n of_o mexico_n and_o hudsons_n strait_n where_o there_o be_v find_v a_o great_a intumescency_n and_o detumescency_n on_o the_o coast_n of_o china_n we_o therefore_o say_v that_o the_o intumescency_n do_v anticipate_v the_o appulse_n of_o the_o
