162150That the Moon may be a World. is in ſome part of the World ſuch a place
where
Men might be plentifully nouriſh’d by
the
Air they breath;
which cannot more pro-
perly
be aſſign’d to any one particular, than to
the
Æthereal Air above this.
1. This Æthereal Air is not an Element’; and
tho’
it be purer, yet ’tis perhaps of a greater
agreabieneſs
to man’s Nature and Conſtitution.
