in_o the_o middle_a region_n and_o by_o reason_n of_o its_o leightness_n can_v not_o go_v direct_o to_o the_o bottom_n but_o be_v carry_v by_o the_o air_n up_o and_o down_o some_o will_v have_v it_o

of_o wind_n ask_v whether_o they_o can_v tell_v how_o snow_n be_v make_v to_o which_o they_o answer_v that_o according_a to_o their_o observation_n snow_n be_v make_v by_o a_o commixture_n of_o

amaze_v the_o empress_n very_o much_o for_o she_o have_v hitherto_o believe_v that_o snow_n be_v make_v by_o cold_a motion_n and_o not_o by_o such_o a_o agitation_n or_o beat_n of_o a_o fiery_a extract_n upon_o water_n nor_o can_v she_o be_v persuade_v to_o believe_v it_o until_o the_o fish_n or_o mear-man_n have_v deliver_v their_o observation_n upon_o the_o make_n of_o ice_n which_o they_o say_v be_v not_o produce_v as_o some_o have_v hitherto_o conceive_v by_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o air_n rake_v the_o superficies_n of_o the_o earth_n but_o by_o some_o strong_a saline_a vapour_n

but_o the_o reason_n that_o it_o do_v not_o so_o much_o freeze_v in_o the_o torrid_a zone_n or_o under_o the_o ecliptic_a as_o near_o or_o under_o the_o pole_n be_v that_o this_o vapour_n in_o those_o

the_o pole_n the_o heat_n of_o the_o sun_n be_v not_o so_o vehement_a the_o same_o vapour_n have_v no_o force_n or_o power_n to_o rise_v so_o high_a and_o therefore_o cause_v so_o much_o ice_n by_o ascend_v and_o act_v only_o upon_o the_o surface_n of_o water_n this_o relation_n confirm_v partly_o the_o observation_n of_o the_o bird-man_n concern_v the_o cause_n of_o snow_n but_o since_o they_o have_v make_v mention_n that_o that_o same_o extract_n which_o by_o its_o commixture_n with_o water_n make_v snow_n proceed_v from_o the_o element_n of_o fire_n that_o be_v under_o the_o moon_n the_o

of_o the_o earth_n and_o as_o the_o famous_a mountain_n vesuvius_n and_o aetna_n do_v burn_v withal_o or_o whether_o it_o be_v such_o a_o sort_n of_o fire_n as_o be_v find_v in_o flint_n etc._n etc._n they_o answer_v that_o the_o elementary_a fire_n which_o be_v underneath_o the_o sun_n be_v not_o so_o solid_a as_o any_o of_o those_o mention_a fire_n because_o it_o have_v no_o solid_a fuel_n to_o

part_n of_o a_o fire_a body_n last_o the_o empress_n ask_v the_o bird-man_n of_o the_o nature_n of_o thunder_n and_o lightning_n and_o whether_o it_o be_v not_o cause_v by_o rove_n of_o ice_n fall_v upon_o each_o other_o to_o which_o they_o answer_v that_o it_o be_v not_o make_v that_o way_n but_o by_o a_o encounter_n of_o cold_a and_o heat_n so_o that_o a_o exhalation_n be_v kindle_v in_o the_o cloud_n do_v dash_v forth_o lightning_n and_o that_o there_o be_v so_o many_o renting_n of_o cloud_n as_o there_o be_v sound_n and_o crack_v noise_n but_o this_o opinion_n be_v contradict_v by_o other_o who_o affirm_v that_o thunder_n be_v a_o sudden_a and_o monstrous_a blaz_n stir_v up_o in_o the_o air_n and_o do_v not_o always_o require_v a_o cloud_n but_o the_o empress_n not_o know_v

tedious_a dispute_n and_o have_v the_o truth_n of_o the_o phaenomena_n of_o celestial_a body_n more_o exact_o know_v command_v the_o bear-man_n which_o be_v her_o experimental_a philosopher_n to_o

part_n the_o sea_n at_o last_o the_o empress_n command_v they_o to_o go_v with_o their_o telescope_n to_o the_o very_a end_n of_o the_o pole_n that_o be_v join_v to_o the_o world_n she_o come_v from_o and_o try_v whether_o they_o can_v perceive_v any_o star_n in_o it_o which_o they_o do_v and_o be_v return_v to_o her_o majesty_n report_v that_o they_o have_v see_v three_o blazing-star_n appear_v

bear-man_n reply_v that_o it_o be_v not_o the_o fault_n of_o their_o glass_n which_o cause_v such_o difference_n in_o their_o opinion_n but_o the_o sensitive_a motion_n in_o their_o optic_a organ_n do_v not_o move_v alike_o nor_o be_v their_o rational_a judgement_n always_o regular_a to_o which_o the_o empress_n answer_v that_o if_o their_o glass_n be_v true_a informer_n they_o will_v rectify_v

and_o will_v never_o lead_v you_o to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o truth_n wherefore_o i_o command_v you_o again_o to_o break_v they_o for_o you_o may_v observe_v the_o progressive_a motion_n of_o celestial_a body_n with_o your_o natural_a eye_n better_a than_o through_o artificial_a glass_n the_o
their_o optic_a observation_n through_o the_o several_a sort_n of_o their_o glass_n will_v be_v a_o tedious_a work_n and_o tire_v even_o the_o most_o patient_a reader_n wherefore_o i_o will_v pass_v
