The more ordinarie Meteors may for order sake be cast into three sorts: some fiery, some ayrie, some watery.
The fiery Meteors in Nature are many, which are seen in great diversity and often: as pillars of fire, the fire we call the falling of the Stars, the fire they call Ignis fatuus, or fools fire, the fire that will hang about mens garments or the sails of ships, blazing Stars or the Lightning. But the Scripture doth especially single out the Thunder and Lightning, to make observations about it for our uses.
