问题：帮我翻英语咯～一个挺长的句子，还算简单的～～Qualities, 
Qualies, such as heat and cold, moisture and dryness, and the like, are not otherwise to be estimated, but by their effect on the quantity of some body they act on, increasing or lessening the dimensions thereof; or else by the motions they produce, both which subject them to Qualies, such as heat and cold, moisture and dryness, and the like, are not otherwise to be estimated, but by their effect on the quantity of some body they act on, increasing or lessening the dimensions thereof; or else by the motions they produce, both which subject them to mensuration; but it is still a question how to ascertain the proportional heat or cold, etc.
