A67384 | But if these Expedients of his do not serve; What is the Reason( you will ask) that the Man under Water, feels not the Weight of it? |
A67384 | But why? |
A67384 | Next, I would ask; What is meant by the Waters own Place? |
A67384 | Where he attempts the account of two Phaenomena: First, Why it weighs less in Water than in Air? |
A28968 | But the memorable Circumstances, for whose sake I mention this Narrative, were these: When I ask''d him how big the Bone was, that was last taken out? |
A28968 | When I ask''d him how long after it was taken out, he began to feel some Relief, as to his Paralytic Distemper? |
A28956 | And our Author himself speaks somewhere at the same rate, where to the Question, Why the walls that inclose fired Gun- powder must be blown asunder? |
A28956 | And why? |
A28956 | For what does their being indivisible do in this case, but make it the less intelligible how they can fill above a hundred parts of space? |
A28956 | In mala,& c. In a bad Cause they can do no other; but who compell''d them to undertake a bad Cause? |
A28956 | Whether the Mercury placed in its own station is upheld by the external Air, or suspended there by an internal Cord? |
A38619 | 242 What hinders, but that we may reckon the Globe of the Earth, as well as the Moon amongst the Stars? |
A38619 | But to what end is her motion needfull? |
A38619 | God created the Heaven and the Earth? |
A38619 | How then can any one conceive Cold to be friendly to Moisture, and to be its inherent property? |
A38619 | If the Matter radically doth lye under the dissentions of contraries, must not the Form, which springs from her very root, feel the same portion? |
A38619 | Nay, would it not be stifled by them in its first birth and cradle? |
A38619 | Yea, who would expect an uniform, and not a monstrous issue from the heterogeneous seed of opposite parents? |
A38619 | whether I do not rather confirm than weaken her priviledges? |
A38619 | whether I do not rather honour than impayr her Royalty? |
A38619 | why may not she also stand fixt amongst so many fixt bodies? |
A38619 | why should we fancie an external cause of motion, which may be all this time intrinsecal? |
A28966 | And if also you further ask, why Melody and sweet things do generally delight us? |
A28966 | And shall not we inquire, whether or no in that future state of things, which shall never have an end, we shall know one another? |
A28966 | And to let you see, that many of his Praises were such, as the Naturalist may best give, he exclaims in one place, How manifold are thy works, O Lord? |
A28966 | But if it be demanded, why then a Discourse finished so long ago, did not come abroad much sooner? |
A28966 | Nay, why a little more than enough of some Objects that produce pleasure, will produce pain? |
A28966 | Or whether God, as Absolute and Supreme Governour of the World, might have freely remitted the Penalties of sin? |
A28966 | Or whether all those things, as antiquated and slight, shall be obliterated, and, as it were, swallowed up? |
A28966 | Or why the smell of Castor, or Assa foetida, produces in most persons that which they call a Stink, rather than a Perfume? |
A28966 | Why among the familiarly visible Stars, there are so many in some parts of the Sky, and so few in others? |
A28966 | Why so many of those Celestial Lights are so plac''d, as not to be visible to our naked eyes, nor even when they are help''d by ordinary Telescopes? |
A28966 | Why their Sizes are so differing, and yet not more differing? |
A28966 | and discords and bitter things do generally displease us? |
A50778 | And after what manner doth the air, which gives life to the Heart, and matter to the vital Spirits, bring death to it? |
A50778 | And as to the second Experiment, in which rarified Air is condensed in the Bottle; how being rarified, can part of the Glass remain empty? |
A50778 | But some will ask, whence come these emancipated Atoms? |
A50778 | But what becomes of this Soul? |
A50778 | Fifthly, It is asked, Why some sounds are sweet and very pleasant, and others on the other hand harsh and displeasing? |
A50778 | How many different Pictures can one and the same Painter make out of the same Colours, only by a different disposition of them? |
A50778 | How then can a thousand Atoms of Matter pass in a right Line through one only Vacuum, no bigger than one single Atom, without penetration? |
A50778 | If it be asked why the Needle turns always to the North Pole? |
A50778 | If it be asked why they are not joyned with the Sun? |
A50778 | Is it corrupted or annihilated; or does it subsist apart in some other place, or is it taken into some other Body? |
A50778 | It is commonly asked why Sea- water is salt, and yet Spring- water which comes from it is sweet? |
A50778 | It is demanded what is the internal or external Cause of the Earths motion? |
A50778 | Lastly, it is asked why some People hear better than others? |
A50778 | Lastly, what is it that presses it, and forceth it with violence to seek its Exit? |
A50778 | Sixthly, it may be enquired from whence the noise in the Ears proceed? |
A50778 | The Question is, If three Atoms be placed together in Order, whether the middle one doth touch the other two which are on both sides of it? |
A50778 | What therefore happens to this Animal? |
A50778 | Yet nevertheless the same difficulty remains still,( viz) how it comes to be more rarified? |
A50778 | how many different sorts of Books can there be made out of the same Syllables and Words by Transposing of them? |
A50778 | or that a Drum made of sheeps- skin, should not sound where there is in place another Drum made of a Wolfs- skin? |
A50778 | who can give a Reason that Sheep should shun a Wolf though unseen? |
A50778 | who can give a reason that the Basilisk should kill by sight? |
A50778 | who emancipates them? |
A55584 | Again, Since it enters in so freely at the pores of the Bladder, what should improfen it there? |
A55584 | As first, Why the Quicksilver in the Tube, under 29. inches, descends not at all? |
A55584 | Besides, What reason is there that God should respect the one Hemisphaere of the Earth, more than the other? |
A55584 | But, alas, How many Souls are there, that never come to act beyond that of the gazing- Monarch''s? |
A55584 | For, to conclude with Muffet; Dei verò virtutem quàm validè animalcula ista, parùm sanè valida, demonstrant? |
A55584 | I pray you( as in the Torricellian- Experiment?) |
A55584 | Nay, what strangers had we been at home, and within the circle of our own selves? |
A55584 | Now Light must either be a Substance, or else how should it subsist( if a bare Quality) in a Vacuity where there is nothing to support it? |
A55584 | Now what sayes Linus to this? |
A55584 | What rare Considerations might an Ingenious Speculator take up here, even from this singular Experiment? |
A55584 | What, shall we judge them too small to be perforated by Nature? |
A55584 | Why does not his rope shrivel it self up, and pull up this Mercurial Cylinder in this Tube, as well as in all others of a larger Bore? |
A96369 | 1. who''d expect Fire out of water? |
A96369 | Again, because a Body is ordered naturally to Act and to Suffer, we ask, what it can or can not do? |
A96369 | Again, if, to endure be, for the same thing to be the same it was; is it not clear, ther''s nothing requir''d but a non- mutation? |
A96369 | Again, the universall answer is evident to all those questions, Whether God knows Future contingents? |
A96369 | Again; why''t is often sexangular, or rather like a Star with six rayes? |
A96369 | And this sense seems the better: for, what could be the end why God should appear a- walking? |
A96369 | And what did God? |
A96369 | And, how will it unite? |
A96369 | And, that this is true, appears out of those explications of Place, whereby, usually, answer is made to the Question, Where is such a thing? |
A96369 | But, if it be ask''d, what the proposition will signify, if it be referr''d immediately to the effect, as it sounds? |
A96369 | By what or How? |
A96369 | Concerning the proper nature of Body, because''t is Finite, we ask, of what Figure''t is? |
A96369 | Do you ask, What fruits I expect? |
A96369 | Hence, then, those Questions are superfluous, Whether one Form can be the same in divers Matters? |
A96369 | If in Rest, the Predicate is neither constantly fixt to the Subject, nor the Subject to the Predicate; and then we ask, where a thing is? |
A96369 | If it be, therefore, ask''d, what men mean by such propositions,''t will rain,''t will be hot, Socrates will be angry or go to Sea,& c? |
A96369 | In what? |
A96369 | Infinite things? |
A96369 | Materia prima? |
A96369 | Mentall or imaginary things? |
A96369 | Negations? |
A96369 | Of this last, we ask, When was the Motion? |
A96369 | Predicates of the first kind are said to be predicated in quid or as the what; being such as answer to the question, what a thing is? |
A96369 | THe solution, also, of that old Question is evident, Why God made not the World before? |
A96369 | The second is, Why God, of all others should name Day and Night, the Firmament, the Land and Seas, and lastly Man; but none of the rest? |
A96369 | The third is, Why God bless''d only the Fishes, Birds and Man; and not the Plants nor Animals? |
A96369 | To the question, therefore, Whether time would passe on were the Sun or Heavens immoveable? |
A96369 | WHat says Theology to this? |
A96369 | What more? |
A96369 | When the Subject is mov''d, we ask, by what? |
A96369 | Why? |
A96369 | You''l ask, wherein consists this action of an Intelligence upon a body? |
A96369 | You''l say, Since a Spirit is a Thing of another order then a body, how can it concurre into the same Thing? |
A96369 | and again, Whether many Forms in one Matter? |
A96369 | and that we answer is said to Act, and the Subject to Suffer from it: when the Subject moves, we ask, what it moves? |
A96369 | and what we answer is call''d its Quality: Lastly,''t is compar''d to other particular things; and we ask, what''t is in respect to another? |
A96369 | and, on the other side, that, of two things which exist, if one perish, that''s said to be chang''d; that which endures remaining still unchang''d? |
A96369 | and, what neighbourhood of one to the other? |
A96369 | because''t is Alterable by others, we ask, how''t is, in respect to those Qualities according to which''t is variable? |
A96369 | but, with the addition of what kind or what in particular? |
A96369 | is irrationall; and signifies just as if they should say, If the sides of the sphear were joyn''d,& nothing else done, would they be joyn''d? |
A96369 | or, what consequence is this, An Angel wills, therefore a Body is rarefy''d? |
A96369 | the secrets of Hearts? |
A96369 | then, how will it be cemented? |
A96369 | whereto the Predicate we answer is call''d its Site or Situation: Or lastly, the Predicate is fixt to the Subject, and we ask, what it has? |
A60282 | And if their production be of that nature, out of what matter they are formed? |
A60282 | As if the Coal dipped from A, which is the Cropp, to B, which should be the Center of that Body; and after that rise to C? |
A60282 | But here occurrs the great question, namely, why I find only the weight of the Water GA, and nothing of the weight of the Water, CE, or DE? |
A60282 | But how can AB, that''s 12 foot high, press A, with as much weight, as when it s 34 foot high? |
A60282 | But put the case( you say) the weight R, were 130 pound, 160 pound, or 180 pound, would the beam be less or more burdened with the superior Water? |
A60282 | But what if we do more,( say they) even overthrow many of all your Aerostatical and Hydrostatical Experiments, in this, and in your last Pe ● ce? |
A60282 | But why is it then,( say you) that the stronger the suction be, the higher the Mercury ascends in the Pipe? |
A60282 | But why is the Tub prest up with 13 ounces? |
A60282 | But why may not a man come up every half hour, when he finds difficulty to tarry down in a little Ark? |
A60282 | But why ought a surface to succumb, when the Pillar grows in hight, and not to fail when it grows only in breadth? |
A60282 | But why ought the Brass to be suspended at 25 foot from the top? |
A60282 | But why should a larger part of a surface be stronger than a narrower part? |
A60282 | First, what''s the reason, why the Mercury subsides, and sinks down from H to G? |
A60282 | First, why ought the Mercury to rise in the two Tubs, after the Vessel is filled with Water? |
A60282 | How then is it counterpoised? |
A60282 | If a Coal encountering amascent, or Brae above ground in its Streek, rises also with the ground, and keeps its ascent? |
A60282 | If it be asked, between what two things is the equipondium now? |
A60282 | If it be asked, how come we to the knowledge of this, that the pressure and weight of the Element of Air, is sometimes less, and sometimes more? |
A60282 | If it be asked, how comes it to pass, that the Pillar of Water IH, is exactly the weight of the 58 inches of Mercury? |
A60282 | If it be enquired, how can one and the same Water, counterpoise two Fluids of different weights? |
A60282 | If it be enquired, how much weight rests upon the palm of a mans hand, when the Ark is down about 68 foot? |
A60282 | If it be enquired, whether or not, would the Mercury run out at B, upon supposition, the shank LD were twice as wide, as the shank BD? |
A60282 | If it be inquired, whether bodies, that are naturally lighter, will weigh in Water? |
A60282 | If it be inquired, whether or not, would the 14 inches of Mercury AB fall down, a small hole being made in the top of the Tub at B? |
A60282 | If it be inquired, whither the greatest hazard is from the ingress of the Water, or from the egress of the Air? |
A60282 | If it be said, how can such a Fluid Body as Water, be able to support any part of the weight of the stone, that is such a heavy Body? |
A60282 | If so much rest upon the palm, how much must rest upon the rest of the parts of the body? |
A60282 | If then, it be supported by the said surface, why ought I to find the weight of it, when I lift up the Pipe a little from the bottom of the Vessel? |
A60282 | If this be,( you say) what is the weight of Air, that rests upon this Table, that''s 36 inches square? |
A60282 | Is then the Hydrostaticks, a Science long ago perfected? |
A60282 | It may be enquired here, how far this Glass would go down, before the 29 inches of Air IK were reduced to one inch? |
A60282 | It may be enquired, what hazard would follow, upon supposition a small hole were pierced in the head of the Ark above, when it is going down? |
A60282 | It may be here inquired, what sort of proportion is keeped by the unequal ingress of the Water? |
A60282 | It may be here inquired, whether or not, Mercury would ascend in this Glass, as the Water does? |
A60282 | It may be inquired next, what''s the weight of the Air, that burdens the pavement of this parlour, that''s 16 foot square? |
A60282 | It may be inquired secondly, how far Mercury will ascend, and how far Water will creep up? |
A60282 | It may be inquired secondly, why it halts at G, 58 inches from AB, and comes no further down? |
A60282 | Now the question is, why there being but 50 inches of Water in the Tub, while erected, there should be 60 in it, when it is reclined? |
A60282 | Now, I enquire, whether these 18 ounces, are the equipondium of the VVater within the Glass, or of the weight of Lead B? |
A60282 | Now, what''s the reason, why it runs up from R to E, and why it falls down from I to D? |
A60282 | Or if it should continue its declination thorow B to D, which is Antipodes to us? |
A60282 | Or if these 18 ounces in the Scale O, be the counterpoise of the Water within the Glass, I enquire what sustains the weight of the Lead B? |
A60282 | Or why doth it not extuberat in any other place of the Graff? |
A60282 | Or, if they have been but produced gradually, as they speak of Gold, and other Minerals, by the influence of the Sun, in the bowels of the Earth? |
A60282 | Secondly, how shall we come to the true knowledge of that weight; that is, to know distinctly how many pounds or ounces it is of? |
A60282 | Secondly, why rather six inches, then seven or eight? |
A60282 | Secondly, why there should be 90 inches of Water in the Tub BE, and but 50 in it, when it stands Perpendicular, as DA? |
A60282 | The Devil said to him, Saw you that? |
A60282 | The Devil then roared mightily, and cryed out, What? |
A60282 | The first question is, what sustains the VVater IO; for the part FI, is sustained by the ambient VVater? |
A60282 | The question now is, what''s the reason, why the VVater creeps up after this manner, 10 or 12 inches above the surface AB? |
A60282 | The question then is, why doth it lose half a pound of its weight? |
A60282 | Thirdly, what''s the reason, why it rises as high in the wide Tub, as in the narrow? |
A60282 | Trial likewise might be made, by firing a great piece of Ordnance above, whether the report would be heard below the Water or not? |
A60282 | What hath so highly commended Merchiston over all Europe, as his inventions, especially his Logarithmes? |
A60282 | Will ye not speak to me? |
A60282 | Would you see me? |
A60282 | 〈 ◊ 〉 be asked, What way goes about the Hool of the Wild Vetch? |
A34110 | 1 Whence is it; I pray you that an oxe quakes, and is madded, and runs away at the presence of the butcher? |
A34110 | 1 Why sleep most usually comes upon a man after meat? |
A34110 | 2 Whence afterwards heat? |
A34110 | 2 Whence is it that the body of a slain man bleeds at the presence of the murderer, and that after some dayes, or months, yea, and years? |
A34110 | 2 Why carefull thoughts disturb sleep? |
A34110 | 3 What it is to watch, and how it is done? |
A34110 | 3 Why the feaver leaves faintnesse behind it? |
A34110 | 4 Why food is hurtfull at the beginning of a feaver? |
A34110 | 4 Why too much watching is hurtfull? |
A34110 | 5 Why it is dangerous to expell the feaver over soon? |
A34110 | 8. what need we any other interpretation? |
A34110 | Again, it may easily be gathered from hence, why hard and oily things are durable? |
A34110 | And Sulphur, what is it but matter mixt with fire? |
A34110 | And what is a dream but an imagination? |
A34110 | And what need many words? |
A34110 | And what need words? |
A34110 | And why should not these things be accounted as new inventions; That ternarie of principles so clearly demonstrated from Scripture, Reason, and Sense? |
A34110 | Are not we placed as wel as they in Natures garden? |
A34110 | But how doth he correct, but by dashing over our vain cogitation with his word? |
A34110 | But now what mean the seven planets in heaven? |
A34110 | But whence had these life, I pray you, but from that diffused soul of the World? |
A34110 | Did not hee command him to behold his invisible things by these things that are seen? |
A34110 | For all that round head, and of so great capacity, is filled up vvith brain; to what end? |
A34110 | For did not God bring man into the School of the World, to contemplate his manifold Wisdome? |
A34110 | For doth not a dog barking at a stranger, distinguish betwixt those whom he knowes, and strangers? |
A34110 | For example; the vapour of water, what is it but water rarified and scattered in the air? |
A34110 | For how could a thunder- bolt be generated in the clouds, if stony vapours did not ascend into the cloud? |
A34110 | For if the spirit do so yet abiding in the body, why not parted from it? |
A34110 | For then the vapours that go out, what are they but the vapours of the inward vapours, far more subtle then the vapours of water? |
A34110 | For vvho knoweth not, that vvaters and oiles are gathered out of the vapours of Alembicks? |
A34110 | For what ability have we to praise him? |
A34110 | For what is become of the clot? |
A34110 | For what means that description of Moses else? |
A34110 | For what? |
A34110 | For who ever saw that? |
A34110 | For who knoweth not, that water doth evaporate, and is turned into air? |
A34110 | For why should we think that impossible in Physicks, which is so excellently atchieved in Mathematicks? |
A34110 | Hence also that question, Whether the soul be propagated by generation? |
A34110 | Hence it appears 1 why a feaver begins with cold? |
A34110 | Hence it is understood, why after a great fire there arises a wind presently,( even in the still air?) |
A34110 | III And what would we have more? |
A34110 | If true( for who can determine otherwise without blasphemie) why may we not conferre them with those things that are manifest by sense& reason? |
A34110 | Is it so indeed that there is not a God in Israel, that we go to enquire of the gods of Ekron? |
A34110 | Is the light of Hierusalem so put out, that we must needs borrow lamps at Athens? |
A34110 | It appeares also why they that are musculy or brawnie, are strong, but those that are thin, are weak? |
A34110 | It appears also, why man is commonly said to consist of a body and a soule only? |
A34110 | It appears then why motion provokes appetite? |
A34110 | It comes therefore to be explained, whence a living creature hath heat and fire? |
A34110 | Now it appeares hence, 1 Why too sharpe or too dull sounds offend, the temperate please us? |
A34110 | Or did David boast in vain? |
A34110 | Or the sonne of Sirach say in vain: The Word of God most High is the fountain of wisdom? |
A34110 | Or was it in vain that Salomon call''d God, the guide unto wisdome, and the corrector of the wise? |
A34110 | Right: But how the Maker without his work? |
A34110 | That the animall spirit can move nothing without an Organ: For why doth no man bend his knees before? |
A34110 | VVhy some living creatures see best in a strong light, others in an obsure light? |
A34110 | VVhy we see nothing, if there be any thing betwixt the eye and the object? |
A34110 | VVhy whitenesse disgregates the sight, and if it be overmuch, dissipates and corrupts it? |
A34110 | We see it done here below: why not above also? |
A34110 | What can be more clear? |
A34110 | What could be the cause of it, I pray you, but that the spirit, and that locally separated, doth maintain its spirituall unity? |
A34110 | What shall we think of the words of the all- wise God? |
A34110 | What the Echo is? |
A34110 | Whence it is understood why springs yield fresh water, though they come from those bitter, and salt waters of the sea? |
A34110 | Whence this Probleme may be profitably noted, why the East wind dries, but the West moistens? |
A34110 | Who hath placed the whole World? |
A34110 | Who sees not here that the spirits are the formers of plants? |
A34110 | Why a sound penetrates obliquely also? |
A34110 | Why a sound spread round about, failes by little and little? |
A34110 | Why do we not slip our wits out of those snares? |
A34110 | Why do we not, I say, turn over the living book of the world instead of dead papers? |
A34110 | Why doth no man move his ear? |
A34110 | Why not that admirable scale of substances, by a septenarie gradation? |
A34110 | Why only things that are coloured are seen? |
A34110 | Why should we learn the works of nature of any other Master, rather then of these? |
A34110 | Why the eye placed in the shade or in the dark sees the stronger? |
A34110 | Why then do we not cast about our eyes, nosthrils and ears as well as they? |
A34110 | Why those things that are to be seen must of necessity be enlightned? |
A34110 | Why when one hears all hear the same? |
A34110 | Yet who knows not, that there are for the most part more ends of one thing? |
A34110 | and by what means it is kindled, kept alive, and extinguished? |
A34110 | and it is certain that stones exposed to the air for some ages,( as in high towers) grow porous: how, but by evaporation? |
A34110 | and other things which we meet with throughout all nature? |
A34110 | and what is the melting of metals, but a kind of vaporation? |
A34110 | and what need many words? |
A34110 | for what is dust, but earth reduced into Atomes? |
A34110 | for why doth it delight in flame, but that it is of a like nature? |
A34110 | if you lay an apple or an egge into the fire, doth not the rarified humour break forth with a blast? |
A34110 | if you presse it when it is drawn into the bellows, doth it not breath through the pipe? |
A34110 | is it not because he smels the garments, the hand, the very breath of the butcher stained with the bloud and spirit of cattle of his own kind? |
A34110 | or else after wearinesse, when the members being chafed do exhale vapours? |
A34110 | smoak, what is it, but an exhalation of wood or other matter resolved? |
A34110 | that so we may finde out that harmony of truth, which is in things, and in the mouth of the Author of things? |
A34110 | the air it self, what is it but a most small comminution of drops of water, and unperceiveable by sense? |
A34110 | the seven combinations of tangible qualities? |
A34110 | the seven differences of taste? |
A34110 | the seven kinds of meteors, seven kinds of metalls, seven kinds of stones,& c? |
A34110 | the seven tones in musick? |
A34110 | the seven vitall members in man? |
A34110 | vvho seeth not also, that smoak in a chimney turns into soot, that is black dust? |
A34110 | what are the seven weeks betwixt the Passeover and Pentecost? |
A34110 | what do all these portend I say, but that it is, the expresse Image of that God whose seven eyes passe through the whole earth? |
A34110 | what is vapour, but water resolved into more subtile parts? |
A34110 | what mean the seven continents on earth? |
A34110 | what the seven times seventh of Jubilee? |
A34110 | what the seventh year of rest? |
A34110 | when he calls it earth, waters, the deep, darkness, a thing void, and without form? |
A34110 | who sees not that the spirit of a minerall or a plant is really preserved in the forme of a little water, oile, or poulder? |
A34110 | who sees not that they inhere so fast in their matter, that they can as it were raise it again after it is dead? |
A34110 | why do we not throw away those spectacles which present us with fancies instead of things? |
A34110 | why not also from tango, tangor? |
A34110 | yea that soot gets into the wals of chimneys, and turnes into a stony hardnesse? |
A34110 | yea, and in the Scripture the number of seven is every where very much celebrated, and sacred: For what do the seven dayes of the week point at? |
A44011 | A. Whence may this consent of Motion in the Load- stone and the Earth proceed? |
A44011 | A. Whence think you proceed the Winds? |
A44011 | And do not the Organs of Sight, the Eye, the Heart, and Brains resist that pressure by an endeavour of restitution outwards? |
A44011 | And first, how does the difficulty of separation argue the Plenitude of all the rest of the world? |
A44011 | And is not the diagonal the root of a square equal to 8 squares of DV? |
A44011 | And now you give it another odd motion; How can all these consist in one and the same body? |
A44011 | And this may answer to the Question, How a stone could fall to the Earth under the Poles of the Ecliptick, by the only casting off of Air? |
A44011 | And what say you is the cause of this? |
A44011 | And when you look towards the Sun or Moon, why is not that also which appears before your Eyes at that time a fancy? |
A44011 | And''t is the way also by which the Table of Sines, Secants aud Tangents have been calculated, Are they all Cut? |
A44011 | Before you leave the Ship tell me how it comes about that so small a thing as a Rudder, can so easily turn the greatest Ship? |
A44011 | But had you not Wind enough presently after? |
A44011 | But has that endeavour no effect at all before the impediment be removed? |
A44011 | But how can the slow motion of a Cloud make so swift a Wind as it does? |
A44011 | But how comes Wood with a certain degree of Heat to shine, and Iron also with a greater degree; but no Heat at all to be able to make water shine? |
A44011 | But how comes it to pass that water does not use to Freeze in a deep Pit? |
A44011 | But how? |
A44011 | But is it not too bold, if not extravagant, an assertion, to say the Earth is moved as a man shakes a Basen or a Seive? |
A44011 | But suppose there be no place empty( for I will defer the Question till anon) how can the Earth cast off either the Air, or any thing else? |
A44011 | But then how are great drops frozen into Hailstones, and that especially( as we see they are) in Summer? |
A44011 | But upon what ground do you believe it? |
A44011 | But what alteration do you find in your body at any time by being Hot? |
A44011 | But what had I to do to meddle with matters of that nature, seeing Religion is not Philosophy, but Law? |
A44011 | But what is that which appears after the pressing of the eye? |
A44011 | But what makes a stone come down, suppose from G? |
A44011 | But what of that? |
A44011 | But what part of the Heaven do you suppose the Poles of your pricked Circle point to? |
A44011 | But what should that innundate, unless it should overflow the Sea that comes close to the foot of those Mountains? |
A44011 | But when you pull the whole Superficies assunder, not without great difficulty, what is the cause of that difficulty? |
A44011 | But why comes it down still with encreasing swiftness? |
A44011 | By what Motion( seeing you ascribe all Effects to Motion) can a Load- stone draw Iron to it? |
A44011 | Can a line be equal to a Cube? |
A44011 | Can not every drop of bloud move at the same time in your veins? |
A44011 | Can not you also walk upon the Deck? |
A44011 | Can the Bullet lose so much of its force in the way from E to G? |
A44011 | Do you find any Experiment to the contrary? |
A44011 | Do you think( as some have written) that the Earth is a great Load- stone? |
A44011 | Does it not make 2 Roots of 2? |
A44011 | Does not the Earth move from West to East every day once, upon his own Center, and in the Ecliptick Circle once a year? |
A44011 | Does not the Mediterranean- Sea lie also East and West? |
A44011 | Does not the Sun by his thrusting back the Air upon you eyes press them? |
A44011 | For it is impossible that any Air can pass into the place to fill it? |
A44011 | For it will stop by the way, suppose at D. Is it not therefore necessary that that space between C and D be left empty? |
A44011 | H. How is light Refracted? |
A44011 | HAve you seen a Printed Paper sent from Paris, containing the Duplication of the Cube, written in French? |
A44011 | Have you drawn from hence no Corollaries? |
A44011 | Have you ever been so much distempered with drinking Wine, as to think the Windows and Table move? |
A44011 | How are you sure? |
A44011 | How can it be known that the particles of Wine have such a Motion as you suppose? |
A44011 | How can the difference be so much? |
A44011 | How come living creatures to be killed in this Receiver, in so little a time as 3 or 4 minutes of an hour? |
A44011 | How comes Refractin? |
A44011 | How comes it about that the Moon hath such a stroke in the business, as so sensibly to encrease the Tides at Full and Change? |
A44011 | How comes it to pass that a Ship should go against the Wind which moves it, even almost point blank, as if it were not driven but drawn? |
A44011 | How comes it to pass that a man is warmed even to sweating almost with every extraordinary labour of his body? |
A44011 | How comes the Light of the Sun to burn almost any combustible matter by rerefraction through a convex glass, and by reflection from a concave? |
A44011 | How comes the wind in? |
A44011 | How do you apply this to a Ship? |
A44011 | How does 3 roots of 72 make the root of 648? |
A44011 | How does 9 roots of 2 make the root of 162? |
A44011 | How does Heat cause light, and that partially in some bodies more, in some less, though the Heat be equal? |
A44011 | How does the root of 2 multiplyed into the root of 72 make 12? |
A44011 | How is that true? |
A44011 | How know you, that any thing is Hot but your self? |
A44011 | How many motions now do you assign to one and the same drop of bloud? |
A44011 | How then comes a Bullet, when shot very Obliquely into any broad Water, and having entred, yet to rise, again into the Air? |
A44011 | How then does the Fire from the Sun pass through the glass of water without being put out before it come to the matter they would have it burn? |
A44011 | How? |
A44011 | If a man thrust down into a vessel of Quick- silver a blown Bladder, will not that Bladder come up to the top? |
A44011 | If the Sun can thus draw up the water; though but in small drops, why can it not as easily hold it up? |
A44011 | If there were empty space in the World, why should not there be also some empty space in the Vial before it was sucked? |
A44011 | If you be a Shipboard under sail, do not you go with the Ship? |
A44011 | Is not that an argument that part of the Air had been sucked out, and part of the room within the Vial left empty? |
A44011 | Is their Calculation so inconstant, or rather so foolish as you make it? |
A44011 | Lines, or Squares, or Cubes? |
A44011 | One thing more I desire to know, and that is; What are those things they call Spirits? |
A44011 | Or does not those bodies whereon the Sun shines( though by reflection) do the same, though not so strongly? |
A44011 | Or will you say the Quick silver does not exactly touch the sides of the glass pipe? |
A44011 | Take a piece of soft wax; Do not you think the one half touches the other half as close as the smoothest Marbles? |
A44011 | That has already been granted, my question is what breaks them? |
A44011 | There must needs be the same or as much Air come to that space( which only is empty) between C and D. By what force? |
A44011 | WHat convincing Argument is there to prove, that in all the world there is no empty place? |
A44011 | WHat is the cause of Heat? |
A44011 | WHat is the original cause of Rain? |
A44011 | WHat makes the Flux and Reflux of the Sea twice in a natural day? |
A44011 | Well now, supposing the world full, how do you prove it possible to pull those Marbles assunder? |
A44011 | What are those sparks that flie out of the Fire? |
A44011 | What argument have you to convince me that there is Motion in a Cross- bow when it stands bent? |
A44011 | What bar is that you find in the Ocean, that stops the current of the water, like that you make in the Basen? |
A44011 | What can be the cause of that? |
A44011 | What is Flame? |
A44011 | What is it that breaketh the Clouds when they are frozen? |
A44011 | What is tbe difference between Reflection and Recoiling? |
A44011 | What is that 45? |
A44011 | What is the cause of Freezing of the Ocean towards the Poles of the Earth? |
A44011 | What is the cause of Reflection? |
A44011 | What is the cause of that? |
A44011 | What is the reason it Rains so seldom, but Snows so often upon very high Mountains? |
A44011 | What is the reason of that? |
A44011 | What makes Snow? |
A44011 | What makes them gather together? |
A44011 | What mean you by Spring? |
A44011 | What say you to that? |
A44011 | What then? |
A44011 | What then? |
A44011 | What was it then that troubled the Water? |
A44011 | What weight laid upon the head of a Nail, and in how much time will do the same? |
A44011 | When a Bullet enters not, but rebounds from the wall, does it make the same Angle going off, which it did falling on, as the Sun- beams do? |
A44011 | When a Bullet from out of the Air entreth into a Wall of Earth, will that also be Refracted towards the Perpendicular? |
A44011 | When you see( for example) a Cross- bow bent, do you think the parts of it stir? |
A44011 | Whence then comes the Motion by which it reboundeth? |
A44011 | Where lies the difference? |
A44011 | Whither can this Air go if all the World without that glass pipe B C were full? |
A44011 | Why are not somteimes also whole Clouds when pregnant and ready to drop, frozen into one piece of Ice? |
A44011 | Why are the Hardest things the most brittle, insomuch that what force soever is enough to bend them, is enough also to break them? |
A44011 | Why can not that Vacuum come into the place between? |
A44011 | Why do you grant it to be true in Arithmetick? |
A44011 | Why does any Brass or Iron Vessel, if it be hollow, flote upon the water, being so very heavy? |
A44011 | Why does the Earth cast off Air more easily than it does Water, or any other heavy bodies? |
A44011 | Why does the Fire melt divers Hard bodies, and yet not all? |
A44011 | Why does the South Wind more often then any other bring Rain with it? |
A44011 | Why is there so little Rain in Egypt, and yet so much in other parts nearer the Aequinoctial, as to make the Nile overflow the Countrey? |
A44011 | Why may not some of that Vacuum be brought in, and mingled with the Air here? |
A44011 | Why not? |
A44011 | Why should not the Nile then overflow that Countrey twice a year? |
A44011 | Why so? |
A44011 | Why so? |
A44011 | Why then should there not be without and before the Eye, an apparition of Light in this case as well as in the other? |
A44011 | Why will not Wine Freeze as well as Water? |
A44011 | Why, what is 2? |
A44011 | You will say the Air comes out again with the same violence by reflection; and I believe it? |
A44011 | and how is it generated? |
A44011 | the Root of 2, and 2 BR equal to the Diagonal? |
A44011 | what else can you think makes the Diurnal motion of the Earth, but the Sun? |
A44011 | why are there not the like Tides there? |
A43983 | 30 min? |
A43983 | A. I understand now from what Cause proceedeth the Annual Motion: Is the Sun the Cause also of the Diurnal Motion? |
A43983 | And by what Motion? |
A43983 | And how broad? |
A43983 | And how define you Time? |
A43983 | And if it have far to go, divide it self into drops? |
A43983 | And is not the Variation there D a Westerly, with the North- point of the Needle in the Line a h? |
A43983 | And is not there a great Sea called the Atlantick Sea that runneth Northward to us? |
A43983 | And since I can not go through them, I must give over somewhere, and why not here? |
A43983 | And where upon the Earth are there not Eminencies and depressions, except in some wide Sea, and a great way from Land? |
A43983 | And why falls it not down in shivers? |
A43983 | Are there not great Seas of Ice in the Northern parts of the Earth? |
A43983 | As how? |
A43983 | As how? |
A43983 | But how applies he this, to prove that the water can not hurt a Fish in the Sea by its weight? |
A43983 | But how comes it to pass, that when a Loadstone hath drawn a piece of Iron, you may add to it another, as if they begat one another? |
A43983 | But how is it possible that so soft a Substance as water should be turned into so hard a Substance as Ice? |
A43983 | But how then could there be made in the Recipient such strange alteration both on animate and inanimate Bodies? |
A43983 | But how? |
A43983 | But if the Water be above the Fire in a Kettle, what then will it do? |
A43983 | But is there any necessity of so much niceness? |
A43983 | But since we seek the Natural Causes of Sublunary Effects, where shall we begin? |
A43983 | But the Greeks that travelled( you say) into Egypt, what Philosophy did they carry home? |
A43983 | But the Natural heat of a man or other living Creature, whence proceedeth it? |
A43983 | But then I ask you whether the Moon have also that compounded Motion of the Earth, and with it a Motion upon its own Centre, as hath the Earth? |
A43983 | But what Natural Cause doth he assign of this revolution of 600 years? |
A43983 | But what are his Suppositions for the Question he handles? |
A43983 | But what are the Questions which from these Books you intend to ask me? |
A43983 | But what deduce you from these Motions of the Sun? |
A43983 | But what if there be Islands, and narrow Inlets of the Sea, or Rivers also about the Pole of the Aequinoctial? |
A43983 | But what infers he from it? |
A43983 | But what is that which kills men that lie asleep too neer a Charcole- fire? |
A43983 | But what is the Cause that the Obliquity of the Ecliptique, that is, the distance between the Aequinoctial and the Solstice, is not always the same? |
A43983 | But what is the second Experiment? |
A43983 | But what mean you by resistance? |
A43983 | But what need had they then to assigne any cause at all, seeing they could not shew the Effect was to follow from it? |
A43983 | But what of that? |
A43983 | But what say you to the stupendious Tides which happen on the Coasts of Lincolnshire on the East, and in the River of Severn on the West? |
A43983 | But when the Ice is made, how is it broken? |
A43983 | But when there proceed from one Sound divers Echoes, what are those Echoes? |
A43983 | But when you finde your self hot, what Body do you feel? |
A43983 | But why then should Quicksilver be heavier than Stone or Steel? |
A43983 | Can a Cloud be turned into Ice? |
A43983 | Can you guess what may be the Cause of Wind? |
A43983 | Can you prove the contrary? |
A43983 | Did neither of them consider that descending is local Motion, that they might have called it an intrinsecal Motion rather than an intrinsecal quality? |
A43983 | Do not you see that every day Men make Glass, and other Diaphanous Bodies not much inferior in beauty to the fairest Gems? |
A43983 | Do you conceive me? |
A43983 | Do you think Air and Water to be pure and Homogeneous Bodies? |
A43983 | Do you think Wind the general Cause of Cold? |
A43983 | Do you think any Argument can be drawn from it to prove there is Vacuum? |
A43983 | Do you think that to be impossible? |
A43983 | Do you think the Air makes no resistance, especially to so swift a Motion as is the Annual Motion of the Earth? |
A43983 | Do you think( as many Philosophers have held and now hold) that Cold is nothing but a privation of Heat? |
A43983 | Does he think the Body of water that runs out at the side, and that which runs out at the bottom is but one and the same Body of water? |
A43983 | Does it follow thence that one Body can go more than one way at once? |
A43983 | Does not the Earth make the Wind as great in one part of the Ecliptique as in another? |
A43983 | Does, when the Tide runs up into a River, the water all rise together, and fall together when it goes out? |
A43983 | For in so great an Agitation of Natural Bodies, may not some small parts of them be cast out, and leave the places empty from whence they were thrown? |
A43983 | For why may not there be some other fixed Star, neerer to some Planet than is the Sun, and cause such a light in it as we call a Comet? |
A43983 | From what Experiment can you evidently infer that there is no Vacuum? |
A43983 | From whence come the Rivers? |
A43983 | Has the Moon nothing to do in this business? |
A43983 | Hath it also an intrinsecal quality to go from the Earth? |
A43983 | Have you any Experiment that shews it? |
A43983 | Have you never seen a Stone that seemed to have been formerly Wood, and some like Shells, and some like Serpents, and others like other things? |
A43983 | How know you that the Sun is hot? |
A43983 | How lieth the water in those two Seas? |
A43983 | How long? |
A43983 | How then can there be a Spring upon the top of a Hill? |
A43983 | How then can you infer your heat from the Sense of Feeling? |
A43983 | How? |
A43983 | How? |
A43983 | If I have a minde to study( for example Natural Philosophy) must I then needs read Aristotle, or some of those that now are in request? |
A43983 | If sucking would make Vacuum, what would become of those women that are Nurses? |
A43983 | In what time do they make the whole Revolution through the Ecliptique of the Sky? |
A43983 | Is it a hard or Fluid Body? |
A43983 | Is it another kind of Fly? |
A43983 | Is it not Flame? |
A43983 | Is it so? |
A43983 | Is it so? |
A43983 | Is not the Sun the same it was? |
A43983 | Is not there a great Sea that reacheth from the Straight of Magellan Eastward to the Indies, and thence to the same Straight again? |
A43983 | Is not this a certain signe that you had suckt out some of the Air, and consequently that some part of the Vial was left empty? |
A43983 | Is that all? |
A43983 | Is that true? |
A43983 | Is there any thing within their Bodies that hath this compounded Motion? |
A43983 | Is there the like Motion in the generation of Animals? |
A43983 | Is there then no transubstantiation of Bodies but by mixture? |
A43983 | Is this all the preparation I am to make? |
A43983 | Know you not Gunpowder is made of the powder of Charcole, Brimstone, and Salt- peter? |
A43983 | Must not the Air that lay upon it rise with it? |
A43983 | Must not the Sun work upon it as it did upon the Water? |
A43983 | Must not then the Air Gravitate? |
A43983 | Must not then the Water in the Vessel rise? |
A43983 | Now seeing they have the same internal motion of parts with that of the Earth, why should not their substance be the same, or very near a kin? |
A43983 | Or from the Hangings of a Chamber wherein a man hath died? |
A43983 | Or is Charcole venimous? |
A43983 | Or is there no Earth now soft enough? |
A43983 | Seeing all Generation, Augmentation, and Alteration is local Motion, how can a Body not Transparent be made Transparent? |
A43983 | Shall another man there draw the Infection from the Clothes onely by his breath? |
A43983 | Shall the particles of water go toward the Fire, as it did toward the Sun? |
A43983 | Since they can make one Transparent Body of many, why do they not of a great many small sparks of natural Diamant compound one great one? |
A43983 | Suppose A c to be the Needle, shall it not incline, as well here as at D a, and the Variation B c be Easterly? |
A43983 | The Counter is certainly one of those things we call Bodies: Are not the others so too? |
A43983 | The Sucker being now forc''d up into the Cylinder, what do you think must follow? |
A43983 | WHat Books are those? |
A43983 | Was not part of the Glass under Water? |
A43983 | What Experiment have you seen to this purpose? |
A43983 | What Motion is it that maketh a hard Body to melt? |
A43983 | What Natural Cause can you assigne for this Excentricity? |
A43983 | What are Dr. Wallis his Suppositions? |
A43983 | What cause then can there be, why it should stand still at 29 inches above the level of the Bason, rather than any place else? |
A43983 | What do you infer from this? |
A43983 | What follows? |
A43983 | What is his second Hypothesis? |
A43983 | What is next to be done? |
A43983 | What is that you call Fire? |
A43983 | What is the Cause why a Bow of Wood or Steel, or other very hard Body, being bent, but not broken, will recover its former degree of straightness? |
A43983 | What is the Cause why the Iron rub''d over by a Loadstone will receive the vertue which the Loadstone hath of drawing Iron to it? |
A43983 | What is this, but a confession that the Poles of the Magnet and of the Earth are the same? |
A43983 | What kind of Motion is the Cause of Cold? |
A43983 | What need had they of that? |
A43983 | What other Definitions have I need of? |
A43983 | What other Suppositions has he? |
A43983 | What poor Geometrician is there, but takes pride to be thought a Conjurer? |
A43983 | What saies he further concerning Gravity? |
A43983 | What then be they but fancies, so many fancies of one and the same thing in several places? |
A43983 | What think you must happen to the Sea, which resteth on it, and is a Fluid Body? |
A43983 | What think you of it? |
A43983 | What think you of this? |
A43983 | What was it that deceiv''d him now? |
A43983 | What wonder is it then, if two parts of water run two ways at once, or a thousand parts a thousand ways? |
A43983 | When began they thus to play the Charletants? |
A43983 | When the Ice is once made and hard, what dissolves it? |
A43983 | When the Swords are in the hands of men, whether had you rather command the Men or the Swords? |
A43983 | Where is Vaygate? |
A43983 | Which of them think you had the greater share? |
A43983 | Whither should this rising Air go, since there is no place empty to receive it? |
A43983 | Whom do you mean, the Successors of Plato, Epicurus, Aristotle, and the other first Philosophers? |
A43983 | Why do some hard Bodies resist breaking more one way than another? |
A43983 | Why hath not the Earth the same vertue now? |
A43983 | Why is he still medling with things of such difficulty? |
A43983 | Why is not Ice as well made in a moved as in a still water? |
A43983 | Why is that? |
A43983 | Why may not so much Air rather descend into the place forsaken, and leave as much Vacuum as that comes to, in the Recipient? |
A43983 | Why may not that Substance within our Bodies, which are called Animal spirits, be another kind of Body, and more subtile than the common Air? |
A43983 | Why not? |
A43983 | Why not? |
A43983 | Why say you that? |
A43983 | Why so? |
A43983 | Why then do men say they finde one Air healthy, another infectious? |
A43983 | Why, when the Cause of Gravity consisteth in Motion, should you despair of finding it? |
A43983 | Why? |
A43983 | Will not that Lightning burn? |
A43983 | Would you have them then betray their Profession and Authority, that is to say, their Livelihood, by confessing their ignorance? |
A43983 | You hope not then to make Gold by Art? |
