XLVIII in the twenty four rank of prerogative instance we will place wrestle  instance which we be also wont to call instance of predominance they be such  as point out the predominance and submission of power compare with each other  and which of they be the more energetic and superior or more weak and inferior  for the motion and effect of body be compound decompose and combine no less  than the body themselves we will exhibit therefore the principal kind of  motion or active power in order that their comparative strength and thence a  demonstration and definition of the instance in question may be render more  clear let the first motion be that of the resistance of matter which exist in  every particle and complete prevent its annihilation so that no conflagration  weight pressure violence or length of time can reduce even the small portion  of matter to nothing or prevent it from be something and occupy some space and  deliver itself whatever strait it be put to by change its from or place or if  that be impossible remain as it be nor can it ever happen that it shall either  be nothing or nowhere this motion be designate by the school which general  name and define everything by its effect and inconvenience rather than by its  inherent cause by the axiom that two body can exist in the same place or they  call it a motion to prevent the penetration of dimension it be useless to give  example of this motion since it exist in every body let the second motion be  that which we term the motion of connection by which body do not allow  themselves to be separate at any point from the contact of another body  delight as it be in the mutual connection and contact this be call by the  school a motion to prevent a vacuum it take place when water be draw up by  suction or a syringe the flesh by cup or when the water remain without escape  from perforate jar unless the mouth be open to admit the air and innumerable  instance of a like nature let the three be that which we term the motion of  liberty by which body strive to deliver themselves from any unnatural pressure  or tension and to restore themselves to the dimension suit to their mass and  of which also there be innumerable example thus we have example of their  escape from pressure in the water in swim in the air in fly in the water again  in row and in the air in the undulation of the wind and in spring of watch a  exact instance of the motion of compress air be see in child popgun which they  make by scoop out elder branch or some such matter and force in a piece of  some pulpy root or the like at each end then they force the root or other  pellet with a ramrod to the opposite end from which the low pellet be emit and  project with a report and that before it be touch by the other piece of root  or pellet or by the ramrod we have example of their escape from tension in the  motion of the air that remain in glass egg after suction in string leather and  cloth which recoil after tension unless it be long continue the school define  this by the term of motion from the from of the element injudicious enough  since this motion be to be find not only in air water or fire but in every  species of solid as wood iron lead cloth parchment etcetera each of which have  its own proper size and be with difficulty stretch to any other since however  this motion of liberty be the most obvious of all and to be see in a infinite  number of case it will be as well to distinguish it correct and clear for some  most careless confound this with the two other of resistance and connection  namely the freedom from pressure with the former and that from tension with  the latter as if body when compress yield or expand to prevent a penetration  of dimension and when stretch rebound and contract themselves to prevent a  vacuum but if the air when compress can be bring to the density of water or  wood to that of stone there will be no needs of any penetration of dimension  and yet the compression will be much great than they actual admit of so if  water can be expand till it become as rare as air or stone as rare as wood  there will be no needs of a vacuum and yet the expansion will be much great  than they actual admit of we do not therefore arrive at a penetration of  dimension or a vacuum before the extreme of condensation and rarefaction while  the motion we speak of stop and exert itself much within they and be nothing  more than a desire of body to preserve their specific density or if it be  prefer their from and not to desert they sudden but only to change by degree  and of their own accord it be however much more necessary to intimate to  mankind because many other point depend upon this that the violent motion  which we call mechanical and Democritus who in explain his primary motion be  to be rank even below the middling class of philosopher term the motion of a  blow be nothing else than this motion of liberty namely a tendency to  relaxation from compression for in all simple impulsion or flight through the  air the body be not displace or move in space until its part be place in a  unnatural state and compress by the impel force when that take place the  different part urge the other in succession the whole be move and that with a  rotatory as well as progressive motion in order that the part may by this mean  also set themselves at liberty or more ready submit let this suffice for the  motion in question let the four be that which we term the motion of matter and  which be oppose to the last for in the motion of liberty body abhor reject and  avoid a new size or volume or any new expansion or contraction for these  different term have the same meaning and strive with all their power to  rebound and resume their former density on the contrary in the motion of  matter they be anxious to acquire a new volume or dimension and attempt it  Willing and rapid and occasional by a most vigorous effort as in the example  of gunpowder the most powerful or at least most frequent though not the only  instrument of this motion be heat and cold for instance the air if expand by  tension as by suction in the glass egg struggle anxious to restore itself but  if heat be apply it strive on the contrary to dilate itself and long for a  large volume regular pass and migrate into it as into a new from as it be term  nor after a certain degree of expansion be it anxious to return unless it be  invite to do so by the application of cold which be not indeed a return but a  fresh change so also water when confine by compression resist and wish to  become as it be before namely more expand but if there happen a intense and  continue cold it change itself ready and of its own accord into the condense  state of ice and if the cold be long continue without any intervene warmth as  in grotto and deep cave it be change into crystal or similar matter and never  resume its from let the five be that which we term the motion of continuity we  do not understand by this simple and primary continuity with any other body  for that be the motion of connection but the continuity of a particular body  in itself for it be most certain that all body abhor a solution of continuity  some more and some less but all partial in hard body such as steel and glass  the resistance to a interruption of continuity be most powerful and  efficacious while although in liquid it appear to be faint and languid yet it  be not altogether null but exist in the low degree and show itself in many  experiment such as bubble the round from of drop the thin thread which drip  from roof the cohesion of glutinous substance and the like it be most  conspicuous however if a attempt be make to push this separation to still  small particle thus in mortar the pestle produce no effect after a certain  degree of contusion water do not penetrate small fissure and the air itself  notwithstanding its subtlety do not penetrate the poor of solid vessel at once  but only by long continue insinuation let the six be that which we term the  motion of acquisition or the motion of needs it be that by which body place  among other of a heterogeneous and as it be hostile nature if they meet with  the mean or opportunity of avoid they and unite themselves with other of a  more analogous nature even when these latter be not close alley to they  immediate seize and as it be select they and appear to consider it as  something acquire whence we derive the name and to have needs of these latter  body for instance gold or any other metal in leaf do not like the  neighbourhood of air if therefore they meet with any tangible and thick  substance such as the finger paper or the like they immediate adhere to it and  be not easy tear from it paper too and cloth and the like do not agree with  the air which be inherent and mix in their poor they ready therefore imbibe  water or other liquid and get rid of the air sugar or a sponge dip in water or  wine and though part of it be out of the water or wine and at some height  above it will yet gradual absorb they hence a excellent rule be derive for the  open and dissolution of body for not to mention corrosive and strong water  which force their way if a body can be find which be more adapt suit and  friendly to a give solid than that with which it be by some necessity unite  the give solid immediate open and dissolve itself to receive the former and  exclude or remove the latter nor be the effect or power of this motion confine  to contact for the electric energy of which Gilbert and other after he have  tell so many fable be only the energy excite in a body by gentle friction and  which do not endure the air but prefer some tangible substance if there be any  at hand let the seven be that which we term the motion of great congregation  by which body be bear towards mass of a similar nature for instance heavy body  towards the earth light to the sphere of heaven the school term this natural  motion by a superficial consideration of it because produce by no external  visible agent which make they consider it innate in the substance or perhaps  because it do not cease which be little to be wonder at since heaven and earth  be always present while the cause and source of many other motion be sometime  absent and sometime present they therefore call this perpetual and proper  because it be never interrupt but instant take place when the other be  interrupt and they call the other adscititious the former however be in  reality weak and slow since it yield and be inferior to the other as long as  they act unless the mass of the body be great and although this motion have so  fill man mind as almost to have obscure all other yet they know but little  about it and commit many error in its estimate let the eight be that which we  term the motion of lesser congregation by which the homogeneous part in any  body separate themselves from the heterogeneous and unite together and whole  body of a similar substance coalesce and tend towards each other and be  sometime congregate attract and meet from some distance thus in milk the cream  rise after a certain time and in wine the dregs and tartar sink which effect  be not to be attribute to gravity and levity only so as to account for the  rise of some part and the sink of other but much more to the desire of the  homogeneous body to meet and unite this motion differ from that of needs in  two point saint because the latter be the stimulus of a malignant and contrary  nature while in this of which we treat if there be no impediment or restraint  the part be unite by their affinity although there be no foreign nature to  create a struggle dly because the union be close and more select for in the  other motion body which have no great affinity unite if they can but avoid the  hostile body while in this substance which be connect by a decide kindred  resemblance come together and be mould into one it be a motion exist in all  compound body and will be ready see in each if it be not confine and check by  the other affection and necessity of body which disturb the union this motion  be usual confine in the three follow manner by the torpor of the body by the  power of the predominate body by external motion with regard to the first it  be certain that there be more or less sluggishness in tangible body and a  abhorrence of locomotion so that unless excite they prefer remain content with  their actual state to place themselves in a better position there be three  mean of break through this sluggishness heat the active power of a similar  body vivid and powerful motion with regard to the first heat be on this  account define as that which separate heterogeneous and draw together  homogeneous substance a definition of the peripatetic which be just ridicule  by Gilbert who say it be as if one be to define man to be that which sovus  wheat and plant vineyard be only a definition deduce from effect and those but  partial but it be still more to be blame because those effect such as they be  be not a peculiar property of heat but a mere accident for cold as we shall  afterward show do the same arise from the desire of the homogeneous part to  unite the heat then assist they in break through that sluggishness which  before restrain their desire with regard to the assistance derive from the  power of a similar body it be most conspicuous in the magnet when arm with  steel for it excite in the steel a power of adhere to steel as a homogeneous  substance the power of the magnet break through the sluggishness of the steel  with regard to the assistance of motion it be see in wooden arrow or point  which penetrate more deep into wood than if they be tip with iron from the  similarity of the substance the swiftness of the motion break through the  sluggishness of the wood of which two last experiment we have speak above in  the aphorism on clandestine instance the confinement of the motion of lesser  congregation which arise from the power of the predominant body be show in the  decomposition of blood and urine by cold for as long as these substance be  fill with the active spirit which regulate and restrain each of their  component part as the predominant ruler of the whole the several different  part do not collect themselves separate on account of the check but as soon as  that spirit have evaporate or have be choke by the cold then the decompose  part unite accord to their natural desire hence it happen that all body which  contain a sharp spirit as salt and the like last without decomposition owe to  the permanent and durable power of the predominate and imperious spirit the  confinement of the motion of lesser congregation which arise from external  motion be very evident in that agitation of body which preserve they from  putrefaction for all putrefaction depend on the congregation of the  homogeneous part whence by degree there ensue a corruption of the first from  as it be call and the generation of another for the decomposition of the  original from which be itself the union of the homogeneous part precede the  putrefaction which prepare the way for the generation of another this  decomposition if not interrupt be simple but if there be various obstacle  putrefaction ensue which be the rudiment of a new generation but if to come to  our present point a frequent agitation be excite by external motion the motion  towards union which be delicate and gentle and require to be free from all  external influence be disturb and cease which we perceive to be the case in  innumerable instance thus the daily agitation or flow of water prevent  putrefaction wind prevent the air from be pestilent corn turn about and shake  in granary continue clean in short everything which be external agitate will  with difficulty rot internal we must not omit that union of the part of body  which be the principal cause of induration and desiccation when the spirit or  moisture which have evaporate into spirit have escape from a porous body such  as wood bone parchment and the like the thick part be draw together and unite  with a great effort and induration or desiccation be the consequence and this  we attribute not so much to the motion of connection in order to prevent a  vacuum as to this motion of friendship and union union from a distance be rare  and yet be to be meet with in more instance than be general observe we  perceive it when one bubble dissolve another when medicine attract humour from  a similarity of substance when one string move another in unison with it on  different instrument and the like we be of opinion that this motion be very  prevalent also in animal spirit but be quite ignorant of the fact it be  however conspicuous in the magnet and magnetize iron while speak of the motion  of the magnet we must plain distinguish they for there be four distinct power  or effect of the magnet which shall not be confound although the wonder and  astonishment of mankind have class they together the attraction of the magnet  to the magnet or of iron to the magnet or of magnetize iron to iron its  polarity towards the north and south and its variation its penetration through  gold glass stone and all other substance the communication of power from the  mineral to iron and from iron to iron without any communication of the  substance here however we only speak of the first there be also a singular  motion of attraction between quicksilver and gold so that the gold attract  quicksilver even when make use of in ointment and those who work surround by  the vapour of quicksilver be wont to hold a piece of gold in their mouth to  collect the exhalation which will otherwise attack their head and bone and  this piece soon grow white let this suffice for the motion of lesser  congregation let the nine be the magnetic motion which although of the nature  of that last mention yet when operate at great distance and on great mass  deserve a separate inquiry especial if it neither begin in contact as most  motion of congregation do nor end by bring the substance into contact as all  do but only raise they and make they swell without any further effect for if  the moon raise the water or cause moist substance to swell or if the starry  sphere attract the planet towards their apogees or the sun confine the planet  Mercury and Venus to within a certain distance of his mass these motion do not  appear capable of be class under either of those of congregation but to be as  it be intermediately and imperfect congregative and thus to from a distinct  species let the ten motion be that of avoidance or that which be oppose to the  motion of lesser congregation by which body with a kind of antipathy avoid and  disperse and separate themselves from or refuse to unite themselves with other  of a hostile nature for although this may sometime appear to be a accidental  motion necessary attendant upon that of the lesser congregation because the  homogeneous part can unite unless the heterogeneous be first remove and  exclude yet it be still to be class separate and consider as a distinct  species because in many case the desire of avoidance appear to be more mark  than that of union it be very conspicuous in the excrement of animal nor less  perhaps in object odious to particular sense especial the smell and taste for  a fetid smell be reject by the nose so as to produce a sympathetic motion of  expulsion at the mouth of the stomach a bitter and rough taste be reject by  the palate or throat so as to produce a sympathetic concussion and shiver of  the head this motion be visible also in other case thus it be observe in some  kind of antiperistasis as in the middle region of the air the cold of which  appear to be occasion by the rejection of cold from the region of the heavenly  body and also in the heat and combustion observe in subterranean spot which  appear to be owe to the rejection of heat from the centre of the earth for  heat and cold when in small quantity mutual destroy each other while in large  quantity like army equal match they remove and eject each other in open  conflict it be say also that cinnamon and other perfume retain their odour  long when place near privy and foul place because they will not unite and mix  with stink it be well know that quicksilver which will otherwise reunite into  a complete mass be prevent from so do by man spittle pork lard turpentine and  the like from the little affinity of its part with those substance so that  when surround by they it draw itself back and its avoidance of these intervene  obstacle be great than its desire of reunite itself to its homogeneous part  which be what they term the mortification of quicksilver again the difference  in weight of oil and water be not the only reason for their refuse to mix but  it be also owe to the little affinity of the two for spirit of wine which be  light than oil mix very well with water a very remarkable instance of the  motion in question be see in nitre and crude body of a like nature which abhor  flame as may be observe in gunpowder quicksilver and gold the avoidance of one  pole of the magnet by iron be not as Gilbert have well observe strict speak a  avoidance but a conformity or attraction to a more convenient situation let  the eleven motion be that of assimilation or self multiplication or simple  generation by which latter term we do not mean the simple generation of  integral body such as plant or animal but of homogeneous body by this motion  homogeneous body convert those which be alley to they or at least well dispose  and prepare into their own substance and nature thus flame multiply itself  over vapour and oily substance and generate fresh flame the air over water and  watery substance multiply itself and generate fresh air the vegetable and  animal spirit over the thin particle of a watery or oleaginous spirit contain  in its food multiply itself and generate fresh spirit the solid part of plant  and animal as the leaf flower the flesh bone and the like each of they  assimilate some part of the juice contain in their food and generate a  successive and daily substance for let none rave with Paracelsus who blind by  his distillation will have it that nutrition take place by mere separation and  that the eye nose brain and liver lie conceal in breed and meat the root leaf  and flower in the juice of the earth assert that just as the artist bring out  a leaf flower eye nose hand foot and the like from a rude mass of stone or  wood by the separation and rejection of what be superfluous so the great  artist within we bring out our several limb and part by separation and  rejection but to leave such trifle it be most certain that all the part of  vegetable and animal as well the homogeneous as organic first of all attract  those juice contain in their food which be near common or at least not very  different and then assimilate and convert they into their own nature nor do  this assimilation or simple generation take place in animate body only but the  inanimate also participate in the same property as we have observe of flame  and air and that languid spirit which be contain in every tangible animate  substance be perpetual work upon the coarse part and convert they into spirit  which afterward be exhale whence ensue a diminution of weight and a  desiccation of which we have speak elsewhere nor shall we in speak of  assimilation neglect to mention the accretion which be usual distinguish from  aliment and which be observe when mud grow into a mass between stone and be  convert into a stony substance and the scaly substance round the tooth be  convert into one no less hard than the tooth themselves for we be of opinion  that there exist in all body a desire of assimilation as well as of unite with  homogeneous mass each of these power however be confine although in different  manner and shall be diligent investigate because they be connect with the  revival of old age last it be worthy of observation that in the nine precede  motion body appear to aim at the mere preservation of their nature while in  this they attempt its propagation let the twelve motion be that of excitement  which appear to be a species of the last and be sometime mention by we under  that name it be like that a diffusive communicative transitive and multiply  motion and they agree remarkable in their effect although they differ in their  mode of action and in their subject matter the former proceed imperious and  with authority it order and compel the assimilate to be convert and change  into the assimilate body the latter proceed by be insinuation and stealth  invite and dispose the excite towards the nature of the excite body the former  both multiply and transform body and substance thus a great quantity of flame  air spirit and flesh be from but in the latter the power only be multiply and  change and heat the magnetic power and putrefaction in the above instance be  increase heat do not diffuse itself when heat other body by any communication  of the original heat but only by excite the part of the heat body to that  motion which be the from of heat and of which we speak in the first vintage of  the nature of heat heat therefore be excite much less rapid and ready in stone  or metal than in air on account of the inaptitude and sluggishness of those  body in acquire that motion so that it be probable that there may be some  substance towards the centre of the earth quite incapable of be heat on  account of their density which may deprive they of the spirit by which the  motion of excitement be usual commence thus also the magnet create in the iron  a new disposition of its part and a conformable motion without lose any of its  virtue so the leaven of breed yeast rennet and some poison excite and invite  successive and continue motion in dough beer cheese or the human body not so  much from the power of the excite as the predisposition and yield of the  excite body let the thirteenth motion be that of impression which be also a  species of motion of assimilation and the most subtle of diffusive motion we  have think it right however to consider it as a distinct species on account of  its remarkable difference from the last two for the simple motion of  assimilation transform the body themselves so that if you remove the first  agent you diminish not the effect of those which succeed thus neither the  first light of flame nor the first conversion into air be of any importance to  the flame or air next generate so also the motion of excitement still continue  for a considerable time after the removal of the first agent as in a heat body  on the removal of the original heat in the excite iron on the removal of the  magnet and in the dough on the removal of the leaven but the motion of  impression although diffusive and transitive appear nevertheless to depend on  the first agent so that upon the removal of the latter the former immediate  fail and perish for which reason also it take effect in a moment or at least a  very short space of time we be wont to call the two former motion the motion  of the generation of Jupiter because when bear they continue to exist and the  latter the motion of the generation of Saturn because it be immediate devour  and absorb it may be see in three instance in the ray of light in the  percussion of sound in magnetic attraction as regard communication for on the  removal of light colour and all its other image disappear as on the cessation  of the first percussion and the vibration of the body sound soon fail and  although sound be agitate by the wind like wave yet it be to be observe that  the same sound do not last during the whole time of the reverberation thus  when a bell be strike the sound appear to be continue for a considerable time  and one may easy be lead into the mistake of suppose it to float and remain in  the air during the whole time which be most erroneous for the reverberation be  not one identical sound but the repetition of sound which be make manifest by  stop and confine the sonorous body thus if a bell be stop and hold tie so as  to be immovable the sound fail and there be no further reverberation and if a  musical string be touch after the first vibration either with the finger as in  the harp or a quill as in the harpsichord the sound immediate cease if the  magnet be remove the iron fall the moon however can be remove from the sea nor  the earth from a heavy fall body and we can therefore make no experiment upon  they but the case be the same let the fourteenth motion be that configuration  or position by which body appear to desire a peculiar situation collocation  and configuration with other rather than union or separation this be a very  abstruse notion and have not be well investigate and in some instance appear  to occur almost without any cause although we be mistake in suppose this to be  real the case for if it be ask why the heaven revolve from east to west rather  than from west to east or why they turn on pole situate near the bear rather  than round Oriyon or any other part of the heaven such a question appear to be  unreasonable since these phenomenon shall be receive as determinate and the  object of our experience there be indeed some ultimate and self exist  phenomenon in nature but those which we have just mention be not to be refer  to that class for we attribute they to a certain harmony and consent of the  universe which have not yet be proper observe but if the motion of the earth  from west to east be allow the same question may be put for it must also  revolve round certain pole and why shall they be place where they be rather  than elsewhere the polarity and variation of the needle come under our present  head there be also observe in both natural and artificial body especial solid  rather than fluid a particular collocation and position of part resemble hair  or fiber which shall be diligent investigate since without a discovery of they  body can be convenient control or wrought upon the eddy observable in liquid  by which when compress they successive raise different part of their mass  before they can escape so as to equalise the pressure be more correct assign  to the motion of liberty let the fifteen motion be that of transmission or of  passage by which the power of body be more or less impede or advance by the  medium accord to the nature of the body and their effective power and also  accord to that of the medium for one medium be adapt to light another to sound  another to heat and cold another to magnetic action and so on with regard to  the other action let the sixteenth be that which we term the royal or  political motion by which the predominant and govern part of any body check  subdue reduce and regulate the other and force they to unite separate stand  still move or assume a certain position not from any inclination of their own  but accord to a certain order and as best suit the convenience of the govern  part so that there be a sort of dominion and civil government exercise by the  rule part over its subject the motion be very conspicuous in the spirit of  animal where as long as it be in force it temper all the motion of the other  part it be find in a less degree in other body as we have observe in blood and  urine which be not decompose until the spirit which mix and retain their part  have be emit or extinguish nor be this motion peculiar to spirit only although  in most body the spirit predominate owe to its rapid motion and penetration  for the gross part predominate in denser body which be not fill with a quick  and active spirit such as exist in quicksilver or vitriol so that unless this  check or yoke be throw off by some contrivance there be no hope of any  transformation of such body and let not any one suppose that we have forget  our subject because we speak of predominance in this classification of motion  which be make entire with the view of assist the investigation of wrestle  instance or instance of predominance for we do not now treat of the general  predominance of motion or power but of that of part in whole body which  constitute the particular species here consider let the seventeenth motion be  the spontaneous motion of revolution by which body have a tendency to move and  place in a favourable situation enjoy their peculiar nature pursue themselves  and nothing else and seek as it be to embrace themselves for body seem either  to move without any limit or to tend towards a limit arrive at which they  either revolve accord to their peculiar nature or rest those which be  favourable situate and have a tendency to motion move in a circle with a  eternal and unlimited motion those which be favourable situate and abhor  motion rest those which be not favourable situate move in a straight line as  their short path in order to unite with other of a congenial nature this  motion of revolution admit of nine difference with regard to the centre about  which the body move the pole round which they move the circumference or orbit  relative to its distance from the centre the velocity or great or less speed  with which they revolve the direction of the motion as from east to west or  the reverse the deviation from a perfect circle by spiral line at a great or  less distance from the centre the deviation from the circle by spiral line at  a great or less distance from the pole the great or less distance of these  spiral from each other and last the variation of the pole if they be movable  which however only affect revolution when circular the motion in question be  accord to common and long receive opinion consider to be that of the heavenly  body there exist however with regard to this a considerable dispute between  some of the ancient as well as modern who have attribute a motion of  revolution to the earth a much more reasonable controversy perhaps exist if it  be not a matter beyond dispute whether the motion in question on the  hypothesis of the earth be fix be confine to the heaven or rather descend and  be communicate to the air and water the rotation of missile as in dart musket  ball and the like we refer entire to the motion of liberty let the eighteenth  motion be that of trepidation to which in the sense assign to it by astronomer  we do not give much credit but in our serious and general search after the  tendency of natural body this motion occur and appear worthy of from a  distinct species it be the motion of a as it be eternal captivity when body  for instance be place not altogether accord to their nature and yet not exact  ill constant tremble and be restless not content with their position and yet  not dare to advance such be the motion of the heart and pulse of animal and it  must necessary occur in all body which be situate in a mean state between  convenience and inconvenience so that be remove from their proper position  they strive to escape be repulse and again continue to make the attempt let  the nineteenth and last motion be one which can scarce be term a motion and  yet be one and which we may call the motion of repose or of abhorrence of  motion it be by this motion that the earth stand by its own weight while its  extreme move towards the middle not to a imaginary centre but in order to  unite it be owe to the same tendency that all body of considerable density  abhor motion and their only tendency be not to move which nature they preserve  although excite and urge in a variety of way to motion but if they be compel  to move yet do they always appear anxious to recover their former state and to  cease from motion in which respect they certain appear active and attempt it  with sufficient swiftness and rapidity as if fatigue and impatient of delay we  can only have a partial representation of this tendency because with we every  tangible substance be not only not condense to the utmost but even some spirit  be add owe to the action and concoct influence of the heavenly body
