Thirdly, If the fervour of the Sun, or intemperate heat of clime did solely occasion this complexion, surely a migration or change thereof might cause a sensible, if not a total mutation; which notwithstanding experience will not admit. For _Negroes_ transplanted, although into cold and phlegmatick habitations, continue their hue both in themselves, and also their generations; except they mix with different complexions; whereby notwithstanding there only succeeds a remission of their tinctures; there remaining unto many descents a strong shadow of their Originals; and if they preserve their copulations entire, they still maintain their complexions. As is very remarkable in the dominions of the Grand Signior, and most observable in the _Moors_ in _Brasilia_, which transplanted about an hundred years past, continue the tinctures of their fathers unto this day. And so likewise fair or white people translated in hotter Countries receive not impressions amounting to this complexion, as hath been observed in many _Europeans_ who have lived in the land of _Negroes_: and as _Edvardus Lopes_ testifieth of the _Spanish_ plantations, that they retained their native complexions unto his days. Fourthly, If the fervour of the Sun were the sole cause hereof in _Ethiopia_ or any land of _Negroes_, it were also reasonable that inhabitants of the same latitude, subjected unto the same vicinity of the Sun, the same diurnal arch, and direction of its rayes, should also partake of the same hue and complexion, which notwithstanding they do not. For the Inhabitants of the same latitude in _Asia_ are of a different complexion, as are the Inhabitants of _Cambogia_ and _Java_, insomuch that some conceive the _Negro_ is properly a native of _Africa_, and that those places in _Asia_ inhabited now by _Moors_, are but the intrusions of _Negroes_ arriving first from _Africa_, as we generally conceive of _Madagascar_, and the adjoyning Islands, who retain the same complexion unto this day. But this defect is more remarkable in _America_; which although subjected unto both the Tropicks, yet are not the Inhabitants black between, or near, or under either; neither to the Southward in _Brasilia_, _Chili_, or _Peru_; nor yet to the Northward in _Hispaniola_, _Castilia_, _del Oro_, or _Nicaragua_. And although in many parts thereof there be at present swarms of _Negroes_ serving under the _Spaniard_, yet were they all transported from _Africa_, since the discovery of _Columbus_; and are not indigenous or proper natives of _America_.
