shall_v admire_v he_o for_o a_o excellent_a vertuoso_fw-la phil._n now_o i_o have_v something_o to_o say_v to_o the_o four_o day_n work_v according_a to_o moses_n his_o hypothesis_n the_o deity_n must_v bestir_v himself_o this_o day_n more_o than_o ordinary_a for_o sun_n moon_n and_o star_n be_v a_o very_a considerable_a job_n of_o work_n for_o one_o day_n especial_o when_o the_o furniture_n of_o our_o poor_a earth_n take_v up_o so_o many_o indeed_o you_o have_v handsome_o remove_v the_o difficulty_n of_o the_o fix_a star_n but_o then_o even_o each_o of_o those_o six_o planet_n which_o remain_v will_v require_v as_o long_o a_o time_n for_o their_o formation_n as_o this_o our_o earth_n 72._o o_o r._n p._n 72._o because_o they_o be_v of_o the_o same_o form_n and_o as_o we_o have_v

beside_o i_o can_v see_v how_o the_o relation_n of_o this_o day_n work_n agree_v with_o the_o explication_n in_o your_o scheme_n for_o if_o the_o planet_n be_v form_v by_o the_o first_o secretion_n

therefore_o i_o be_o at_o a_o loss_n to_o find_v what_o the_o sun_n can_v be_v make_v of_o this_o do_v to_o i_o seem_v something_o dark_a and_o mysterious_a and_o require_v a_o little_a of_o your_o

the_o planet_n be_v say_v to_o be_v make_v the_o four_o day_n whereas_o you_o suppose_v that_o all_o the_o planet_n be_v form_v this_o four_o day_n and_o have_v all_o those_o ornament_n they_o be_v probable_o endow_v with_o then_o bestow_v on_o they_o this_o be_v more_o than_o can_v from_o scripture_n be_v infer_v it_o be_v not_o improbable_a that_o god_n almighty_n wrought_v they_o all_o off_o one_o as_o soon_o as_o the_o other_o and_o that_o they_o grow_v on_o to_o perfection_n by_o the_o same_o degree_n so_o that_o the_o work_n of_o each_o of_o they_o be_v go_v forward_o from_o the_o first_o to_o the_o six_o day_n for_o all_o these_o planet_n be_v so_o mutual_o link_v to_o one_o another_o and_o be_v so_o much_o of_o the_o same_o piece_n that_o one_o can_v easy_o suppose_v the_o

some_o of_o their_o ornamental_a part_n as_o perhaps_o their_o sea_n and_o their_o plant_n yet_o they_o be_v say_v to_o be_v make_v the_o four_o day_n because_o they_o be_v make_v the_o moon_n and_o the_o erratic_a star_n to_o we_o they_o be_v before_o only_o invisible_a globe_n but_o by_o the_o light_n of_o the_o sun_n which_o be_v this_o day_n create_v they_o become_v conspicuous_a and_o
