they_o who_o say_v that_o a_o effect_n may_v be_v call_v natural_a two_o manner_n of_o way_n first_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o cause_n themselves_o second_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o direction_n and_o

of_o the_o earth_n give_v occasion_n to_o think_v that_o the_o water_n in_o itself_o be_v sweet_a and_o yet_o become_v salt_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o divers_a savour_n that_o it_o meet_v withal_o in_o the_o ground_n or_o vein_n of_o the_o earth_n which_o cause_n by_o the_o 1._o interpreter_n of_o aristotle_n be_v also_o attribute_v to_o anaxagoras_n &_o metrodorus_n as_o be_v please_a to_o

be_v the_o opinion_n of_o empedocles_n who_o affirm_v that_o the_o sea_n be_v but_o the_o sweat_n of_o the_o earth_n be_v as_o it_o be_v roast_v by_o the_o heat_n of_o the_o sun_n and_o be_v therefore_o salt_n because_o all_o sweat_n be_v of_o such_o a_o savour_n now_o these_o three_o opinion_n aristotle_n endeavour_v to_o confute_v by_o several_a reason_n show_v other_o cause_n of_o the_o sea_n saltness_n and_o indeed_o have_v it_o be_v so_o with_o he_o that_o he_o can_v have_v repair_v unto_o moses_n then_o have_v the_o first_o opinion_n be_v strike_v dead_a more_o easy_o than_o

salt_n as_o well_o as_o sea_n because_o they_o run_v in_o the_o vein_n of_o the_o earth_n yet_o know_v that_o all_o and_o every_o vein_n be_v not_o of_o one_o and_o the_o same_o temper_n as_o be_v apparent_a by_o the_o differ_a quality_n of_o spring_a water_n as_o for_o the_o three_o it_o seem_v rather_o a_o ridiculous_a then_o philosophical_a opinion_n for_o sweat_n be_v but_o a_o small_a

neither_o cause_v the_o sea_n nor_o saltness_n of_o it_o but_o beside_o all_o these_o there_o be_v other_o opinion_n also_o wherefore_o some_o again_o have_v attribute_v the_o cause_n to_o adust_a
