better, the ill-inferred conſequences of good Principles carry a

in calling the Magnet a mixt body, and the Terreſtrial Globe a

ſimple body, which is ſenſibly perceived to be a thouſand times

more compound: for, beſides that it containeth an hundred an

hundred matters, exceeding different from one another, it

taineth great abundance of this which you call mixt, I mean
