SEA, is frequently used for that vast tract of water encompassing the whole earth; but is more properly a part or division of these waters, and is better defined a lesser assemblage of water, which lieth before and washeth the coasts of some particular countries from whence it is generally denominated, as the Irish sea, the Mediterranean sea, the Arabian sea, &c.

What proportion the superficies of the sea bears to that of the land is not precisely known, though it is said to be somewhat more than two thirds. As the waters of the earth must necessarily rise to the surface thereof, as being specifically lighter than the earth, it was necessary there should be large cavities therein for receptacles to contain them; otherwise they would have overspread all the superficies of the earth, and so have rendered it utterly uninhabitable for terrestrial animals. For the centre of the earth being the common centre of gravity, and the nature of fluids being such that they equally yield to equal powers, and the power of attraction being every where equal at equal distances from the centre, it follows, that the superficial parts of the water will every where conform themselves to an equidistant situation from the centre, and consequently will form the surface of a sphere so far as they extend. Hence, that the sea seems higher than the earth or land, results from the fallacy of vision, whereby all objects, and the parts of land as well as sea, the farther they are off from us, the higher they appear; the reason of all which is plain from optics: for it is well known, that the denser any medium is through which we behold objects, the greater is the refraction, or the more their images appear above the horizontal level; also the greater quantity of the medium the rays pass through, the

the more will they be bent from their first direction; on both these accounts the appearances of things remote, and on the sea, will be somewhat above the horizon, and the more so as they are the more remote.

With regard to the depth or profundity of the sea, Varrenus affirms, that it is in some places unfathomable, and in other places very various, being in certain places 10 \frac{1}{2}, 11 \frac{1}{2},
