great_a tourbillion_n remain_v where_o they_o do_v before_o and_o it_o be_v a_o strange_a misfortune_n that_o there_o shall_v be_v certain_a fix_a star_n which_o appear_v to_o we_o and_o after_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o time_n of_o appear_v and_o dis-appearing_a entire_o vanish_v and_o be_v lose_v in_o that_o time_n the_o half-sun_n i_o speak_v of_o will_v appear_v again_o and_o sun_n that_o be_v sink_v into_o the_o heaven_n will_v disappear_a once_o and_o not_o to_o appear_v again_o for_o a_o long_a time_n resolve_v well_o what_o to_o think_v madam_n and_o take_v courage_n there_o be_v a_o necessity_n that_o these_o star_n must_v be_v sun_n which_o grow_v obscure_a enough_o to_o be_v invisible_a to_o our_o sight_n be_v afterward_o enlighten_v and_o in_o the_o end_n must_v lie_v extinguish_v how_o say_v the_o marquiese_n can_v a_o sun_n be_v obscure_v or_o entire_o extinguish_v who_o be_v himself_o the_o fountain_n of_o light_n the_o most_o easy_o in_o the_o world_n say_v i_o madam_n according_a to_o the_o opinion_n of_o des_n cartes_n our_o sun_n have_v spot_n let_v they_o be_v scum_n or_o vapour_n or_o what_o else_o you_o will_v these_o spot_n may_v condense_a and_o many_o of_o they_o may_v come_v together_o and_o form_v a_o kind_n of_o crust_n which_o may_v afterward_o augment_v and_o then_o farewell_n the_o sun_n and_o all_o its_o light._n it_o be_v say_v we_o

that_o crust_n that_o begin_v to_o gather_v and_o the_o face_n of_o the_o sun_n break_v and_o dissipate_v it_o but_o have_v it_o continue_v we_o have_v be_v all_o undo_v you_o make_v i_o tremble_v say_v the_o marquiese_n and_o now_o that_o i_o understand_v the_o consequence_n of_o the_o paleness_n of_o the_o sun_n i_o shall_v henceforth_o every_o morning_n instead_o of_o go_v to_o my_o looking-glass_n to_o consult_v my_o own_o face_n go_v and_o look_v up_o to_o the_o heaven_n to_o consider_v that_o of_o the_o sun._n madam_n say_v i_o be_v assure_v there_o go_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o time_n to_o ruin_v a_o world._n then_o say_v she_o there_o be_v nothing_o requisite_a but_o time._n i_o acknowledge_v it_o madam_n say_v i_o all_o this_o vast_a mass_n of_o matter_n which_o compose_v the_o universe_n be_v in_o perpetual_a motion_n from_o which_o no_o part_n of_o it_o be_v entire_o exempt_a and_o therefore_o change_n must_v come_v soon_o or_o late_a but_o always_o in_o time_n proportionable_a to_o the_o effect_n the_o ancient_n be_v foolish_a to_o imagine_v that_o the_o celestial_a body_n be_v of_o a_o unchangeable_a nature_n because_o they_o never_o see_v any_o change_n in_o they_o but_o they_o have_v neither_o leisure_n nor_o life_n long_o enough_o to_o undeceive_v themselves_o by_o experience_n but_o the_o ancient_n be_v young_a in_o respect_n of_o we_o suppose_v now_o madam_n that_o the_o rose_n which_o last_v but_o for_o a_o day_n shall_v write_v history_n and_o leave_v memorial_n from_o one_o to_o another_o the_o first_o will_v have_v describe_v the_o picture_n of_o their_o gardener_n of_o a_o certain_a manner_n and_o after_o fifteen_o thousand_o age_n of_o rose_n the_o other_o that_o have_v follow_v they_o will_v have_v alter_v nothing_o in_o that_o description_n of_o the_o gardener_n but_o will_v have_v say_v we_o have_v always_o see_v the_o same_o gardener_n since_o the_o memory_n of_o rose_n we_o have_v see_v but_o he_o he_o have_v always_o be_v as_o he_o be_v he_o die_v not_o as_o we_o do_v nay_o he_o change_v not_o and_o certain_o will_v never_o be_v other_o than_o what_o he_o be_v will_v this_o way_n of_o argue_v of_o the_o rose_n be_v good_a yet_o it_o will_v be_v better_o ground_v than_o that_o of_o the_o ancient_n concern_v celestial_a body_n and_o though_o there_o have_v never_o happen_v any_o change_n in_o the_o heaven_n to_o this_o day_n and_o though_o they_o shall_v seem_v to_o last_v for_o ever_o yet_o i_o will_v not_o believe_v it_o but_o will_v wait_v for_o a_o long_a experience_n nor_o ought_v we_o to_o measure_v the_o duration_n of_o any_o thing_n by_o that_o of_o our_o own_o scanty_a life_n suppose_v a_o thing_n have_v a_o be_v a_o hundred_o thousand_o time_n long_o than_o we_o shall_v we_o therefore_o conclude_v it_o shall_v last_v for_o ever_o eternity_n be_v not_o so_o easy_a a_o matter_n and_o some_o thing_n must_v have_v pass_v many_o age_n of_o man_n one_o after_o another_o before_o any_o sign_n of_o decay_n have_v appear_v in_o in_o they_o i_o be_o not_o so_o unreasonable_a say_v the_o marquiese_n as_o to_o consider_v the_o world_n as_o thing_n eternal_a nor_o will_v i_o do_v they_o the_o honour_n to_o compare_v they_o to_o your_o gardener_n who_o live_v so_o many_o age_n long_o than_o the_o rose_n they_o be_v themselves_o but_o as_o a_o rose_n which_o be_v produce_v but_o in_o a_o garden_n that_o bud_n one_o day_n and_o fall_v the_o next_o and_o as_o those_o rose_n die_v new_a one_o succeed_v so_o for_o some_o ancient_a star_n that_o disappear_a other_o new_a one_o be_v bear_v in_o their_o place_n and_o that_o defect_n in_o nature_n must_v be_v so_o repair_v and_o no_o species_n can_v total_o perish_v some_o will_v tell_v you_o they_o be_v sun_n which_o draw_v near_o to_o we_o after_o have_v be_v long_o lose_v in_o the_o depth_n of_o heaven_n other_o will_v say_v they_o be_v sun_n that_o have_v cast_v off_o the_o crust_n which_o begin_v to_o

be_v form_v in_o it_o from_o time_n to_o time_n and_o what_o shall_v hinder_v the_o substance_n proper_a to_o make_v sun_n from_o gather_v together_o and_o produce_v new_a world_n and_o i_o be_o the_o more_o incline_v to_o believe_v these_o new_a production_n since_o they_o be_v more_o correspondent_a to_o the_o great_a idea_n i_o have_v of_o the_o glorious_a work_n of_o nature_n and_o why_o shall_v not_o she_o who_o know_v the_o secret_a to_o bring_v forth_o and_o destroy_v herb_n plant_n and_o flower_n in_o a_o continue_a succession_n practise_v also_o the_o same_o secret_a on_o the_o
