2 fodwc\ being neer the Solftitial points greater, and near the 
iEquino&ial points leaft of ail. Bat beiide this Annual Vicijji W 
tude of the Mqujnoxes.not to lay, of the 4. Cardinal Points 
( which my Hypothefis doth allow- andaffert ; ) I believe it will 
be found, that there is another Annual viciffitude anfwering to> 
the Sun? Apogceum and Perigaum . And that the greateft Tydes 
©fa!!, will be found to be upon a refnlc of thefe two caufes Co- 
operating : which( as doth the Inequality or Natural dayes, de- 
pending on thefe fame caufes ) will light nearer the times, I 
mention. To what is faid to be obferved at Chatham and in the 
Thames , contrary to that I allege as obferved in T^umneymarjbe 
f muft at prefent £mxw, and refer to a melius inquirendum . If 
thofe who objedf this contrary obfervation, fhall, after this no- 
tice, find, upon new Obfervations heedfuliy taken, that the 
Spring-tydes in February and November; are not fo high, as thofe 
in March and September ; I fhall then think the objection very: 
confiderable. But I do very well remember, that Lhave feea : 
ift November, very high Tydes at London, as well as in Eyimney 
MarftJ. And, the time is not yet fo far paft, but thatit may be’ 
remembered f by your felf or others then in London /whether 
in November laft when the Tydes were fo high at Dover 9 at Deaf, 
at Margate, and all along the Coaft from thence to Eymney 
Marfh, as to do in feme of thofe places much hurt, (and, in Hol- 
land, much more ;/ whether, Hay, there were not alfo at the 
fame time, at London; ( upon the Thames ) very high Tydes.,., 
But a good Diary of the Height and time both of High-water, 
and Low-water, for a year or two together, even at Chatham , , 
or Greenwich; but rather at f6me place in the open Sea, or at the: 
Lands end in Cornwal , or on the Weft parts of Ireland $ or at St. 
Hellensj or the Bertmdas y &e. would do more to the-refolvingg 
of this point,. tharrany^verbal difeourfe without it*.

is farthefi from it, and its compound motion at the fwiftefi ; and-thair, 
the Tydes abate as the Earth apprmcheth nearer, till it comes into thee
