1. The extreme heat of the funng 

 under the z,odiack^, draweth A 

 ftream of aire from each Pole 

 into the torrid z.one. 



2. The atomes of thefe two 

 streams coming together are apt 

 to incorporate with one ano- 

 ther. 



3. By the meeting and mingling 

 together of thefe ftreams at the 

 Equator, divers rivolets of 

 atomci of each Pole, are conti- 

 nM.tt ed from one Pole to the 

 other. 



q. Of thefe atomes incorporated 

 with fome fit matter in the 

 bowels of the earth, is made * 

 ftone. 



j. This flone workfth by emana- 

 tions j joyned with agreeing 

 ftreams that meet them in the 

 aire', and in fine it is 4 load-
