- Hitherto.
Thus far shall thy flux and reflux extend. The tides are
marvellously limited and regulated, not only by the lunar and
solar attraction, but by the quantum of time required to
remove any part of the earth's surface, by its rotation round
its axis, from under the immediate attractive influence of the
sun and moon. Hence the attraction of the sun and moon, and
the gravitation of the sea to its own center, which prevent
too great a flux on the one hand, and too great reflux on the
other, are some of those bars and doors by which its proud
waves are stayed, and prevented from coming farther.

VERSE 26
- To cause.
It is well known that rain falls copiously in thunder storms.
The flash is first seen, the clap is next heard, and last the
rain descends; though in fact they all take place at the same
time. The lightning traverses all space in no perceivable
succession of time. Sound is propagated at the rate of 1,142
feet in a second. Rain travels still more slowly, and will be
seen sooner or later according to the weight of the drops, and
the distance of the cloud. Now as water is composed of two
elastic airs or gases, called oxygen and hydrogen, in the
proportion of 88 of the former and 11 3/4 of the latter in
100 parts, the electric spark, or matter of lightning, passing
through the atmosphere, ignites and decomposes those gases,
which explode; and the water falls down in the form of rain.
This explosion, as well as the rushing in of the circumambient
air to restore the equilibrium, will account for the clap and
peal; and thus by the lightning of thunder God causes it to
rain on the earth.
