A51553	A tutor to astronomie and geographie, or, An easie and speedy way to know the use of both the globes, coelestial and terrestrial in six books : the first teaching the rudiments of astronomy and geography, the 2. shewing by the globes the solution of astronomical & geographical probl., the 3. shewing by the globes the solution of problems in navigation, the 4. shewing by the globes the solution of astrological problemes, the 5. shewing by the globes the solution of gnomonical problemes, the 6. shewing by the globes the solution of of [sic] spherical triangles : more fully and amply then hath ever been set forth either by Gemma Frisius, Metius, Hues, Wright, Blaew, or any others that have taught the use of the globes : and that so plainly and methodically that the meanest capacity may at first reading apprehend it, and with a little practise grow expert in these divine sciences / by Joseph Moxon ; whereunto is added Antient poetical stories of the stars, shewing reasons why the several shapes and forms are pictured on the coelestial globe, collected from Dr. Hood ; as also a Discourse of the antiquity, progress and augmentation of astronomie.	Moxon, Joseph, 1627-1691.; Hood, Thomas, fl. 1582-1598.	1659 (1659)	Wing M3021; ESTC R23159	189,557	267

he_o that_o be_v ready_a to_o read_v the_o story_n can_v content_v himself_o therewith_o but_o desire_v also_o to_o know_v the_o constellation_n or_o at_o leastwise_o some_o principal_a star_n therein_o finis_fw-la a_o discourse_n of_o the_o antiquity_n progress_n and_o augmentation_n of_o astronomy_n first_o it_o seem_v not_o to_o be_v doubt_v but_o i._o that_o there_o be_v some_o kind_n of_o observation_n of_o body_n celestial_a as_o soon_o as_o in-artificial_a there_o be_v man_n consider_v that_o the_o spectacle_n which_o the_o heaven_n constant_o present_a be_v both_o so_o glorious_a and_o so_o useful_a that_o man_n can_v not_o have_v eye_n to_o see_v and_o not_o fix_v they_o attentive_o and_o considerate_o thereupon_o for_o among_o other_o apparence_n when_o they_o see_v the_o sun_n daily_o to_o change_v the_o place_n of_o its_o rise_n and_o set_v at_o certain_a time_n of_o the_o year_n to_o approach_v near_o to_o the_o earth_n in_o its_o diurnal_a arch_n and_o at_o other_o again_o to_o mount_v up_o to_o a_o height_n much_o more_o sublime_a and_o remote_a from_o it_o and_o that_o his_o come_n near_a to_o the_o earth_n make_v winter_n and_o his_o remove_n high_o make_v summer_n we_o say_v when_o they_o behold_v these_o thing_n doubtless_o they_o can_v not_o but_o serious_o remark_n and_o consider_v this_o vicissitude_n according_a to_o which_o they_o may_v expect_v the_o season_n will_v be_v more_o hard_a or_o mild_a to_o they_o in_o this_o low_a region_n of_o the_o world_n again_o so_o admirable_o various_a do_v the_o moon_n appear_v in_o her_o several_a shape_n and_o dress_n of_o light_n that_o she_o can_v not_o but_o invite_v man_n eye_n and_o engage_v they_o to_o frequent_a speculation_n special_o when_o she_o assume_v those_o various_a face_n or_o apparence_n at_o set_n and_o certain_a time_n in_o respect_n whereof_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o every_o nation_n measure_v their_o time_n and_o season_n by_o those_o her_o constant_a and_o periodical_a circuit_n and_o this_o because_o those_o period_n succeed_v much_o more_o frequent_o than_o the_o erection_n and_o depression_n of_o the_o sun_n to_o these_o we_o may_v add_v that_o beautiful_a show_n of_o the_o nightly_o star_n undergo_a likewise_o their_o variation_n according_a the_o variety_n of_o season_n and_o more_o particular_o that_o bright_a star_n of_o lucifer_n rise_v sometime_o late_a sometime_o early_o and_o sometime_o not_o at_o all_o before_o the_o sun_n and_o the_o like_a but_o what_o we_o shall_v principal_o note_v be_v only_o this_o that_o though_o mankind_n be_v long_o before_o they_o come_v to_o make_v inquiry_n into_o the_o cause_n of_o these_o celestial_a change_n and_o variation_n restrain_v to_o set_v period_n yet_o they_o observe_v they_o from_o the_o very_a first_o age_n and_o not_o only_o admire_v but_o also_o accommodate_v what_o they_o observe_v to_o the_o use_n of_o their_o life_n and_o their_o successor_n here_o it_o may_v not_o be_v fruitless_a to_o remember_v that_o prometheus_n who_o be_v imagine_v to_o have_v frame_v the_o first_o man_n be_v also_o imagine_v to_o have_v give_v he_o a_o erect_a figure_n and_o sublime_a countenance_n to_o the_o end_n he_o may_v the_o more_o advantageous_o advance_v his_o eye_n to_o the_o heaven_n and_o contemplate_v the_o glory_n and_o motion_n of_o the_o celestial_a light_n but_o because_o this_o be_v too_o general_n and_o rude_a a_o way_n of_o observation_n and_o it_o be_v our_o business_n to_o look_v back_o into_o those_o time_n wherein_o man_n first_o make_v such_o observation_n of_o sydereral_n body_n as_o give_v they_o the_o hint_n and_o occasion_n of_o reduce_v they_o to_o method_n and_o sound_v the_o principle_n of_o the_o art_n or_o science_n of_o astronomy_n thereupon_o we_o must_v have_v recourse_n to_o the_o monument_n in_o sacred_a writ_n for_o the_o understanding_n of_o that_o obscure_a matter_n and_o indeed_o the_o light_n we_o expect_v from_o sacred_a leave_n will_v of_o soon_o be_v clear_a enough_o to_o discuss_v all_o the_o darkness_n wherein_o the_o original_a of_o astronomy_n seem_v involve_v can_v we_o but_o from_o they_o

of_o the_o heaven_n before_o the_o flood_n and_o engrave_v the_o same_o on_o two_o pillar_n the_o one_o of_o brick_n the_o other_o 3._o of_o stone_n that_o so_o it_o may_v be_v preserve_v in_o the_o

great_a year_n as_o they_o call_v it_o do_v consist_v of_o six_o hundred_o common_a year_n the_o vulgar_a opinion_n be_v that_o the_o celestial_a motion_n do_v continual_o vary_v donec_fw-la

word_n from_o whence_o may_v be_v argue_v the_o truth_n of_o what_o the_o same_o author_n write_v namely_o that_o the_o egyptian_n be_v teach_v astronomy_n by_o abraham_n probable_a enough_o it_o be_v we_o confess_v that_o berosus_n and_o other_o quote_v aswell_o by_o josephus_n as_o eusebius_n have_v read_v some_o such_o thing_n in_o some_o book_n of_o the_o old_a rabbin_n but_o that_o the_o

and_o among_o they_o salianus_n who_o will_v not_o allow_v it_o to_o be_v so_o much_o as_o probable_a that_o abraham_n shall_v instruct_v the_o egyptian_n in_o astronomy_n because_o of_o the_o very_a small_a time_n of_o his_o stay_n among_o they_o in_o egypt_n it_o be_v write_v indeed_o that_o abraham_n come_v from_o ur_fw-la of_o the_o chaldean_n but_o not_o that_o he_o receive_v 11._o astronomy_n from_o the_o chaldean_n or_o that_o he_o deliver_v it_o from_o they_o to_o the_o egyptian_n and_o therefore_o they_o conclude_v that_o what_o josephus_n say_v of_o abraham_n read_v astronomy_n in_o egypt_n may_v with_o more_o probability_n be_v impute_v to_o his_o great-grand_a child_n joseph_n concern_v he_o therefore_o we_o read_v in_o truth_n that_o he_o be_v singular_o favourable_a to_o the_o priest_n in_o egypt_n at_o such_o time_n as_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o people_n mortgage_v their_o land_n to_o the_o king_n for_o bread_n during_o that_o woeful_a and_o

that_o from_o hence_o may_v be_v prove_v what_o aristotel_n tell_v we_o from_o other_o authority_n that_o among_o the_o egyptian_n the_o most_o ancient_a nation_n the_o priest_n be_v exempt_v from_o labour_n and_o leave_v to_o 1._o the_o easy_a employment_n of_o their_o mind_n and_o that_o this_o give_v they_o occasion_n to_o invent_v and_o constitute_v the_o mathematics_n and_o yet_o for_o all_o this_o it_o be_v not_o write_v either_o that_o joseph_n teach_v those_o egyptian_a priest_n the_o mathematics_n or_o that_o they_o teach_v they_o to_o he_o and_o perhaps_o that_o favour_n he_o show_v the_o priest_n be_v a_o argument_n not_o only_o of_o the_o respect_n and_o veneration_n bear_v they_o by_o the_o king_n and_o all_o his_o people_n but_o also_o of_o his_o particular_a gratitude_n
