fancy to my ſelf a body under one aſpect, and by and by under

another very different, I cannot think it impoſſible but that it may

happen by a ſimple tranſpoſition of parts, without corrupting or

ingendring any thing a-new; for we ſee ſuch kinds of

that inaſmuch as you go about to perſwade me that the Earth can
<

not move circularly by way of corruptibility and generability,
<

you have undertook a much harder task than I, that with

lb

ments more difficult indeed, but no leſs concluding, will prove
<

the contrary.</
