TO THE READER FIrst Learn this Book together with a Testament of the newest Print and then the Bible and as hard words are come at seek in this Book how they are divided being they are set Alphabetically Secondly Those that desire to write words according to the English Tongue ●hould often write over words as they find them printed in Books minding to ●bserve to divide them into Sillables which will imprint them in the Memo●y and so by use which is the Mother ●f Language as the School-man saith ●e may come to be so perfected in true ●●lling as may serve well enough for a Shopkeeper or a Husbandman without the Latine Tongue Thirdly Those that desire to learn to write without a Master let them with a dry Pen run over the writing Letters in this Book learning to make a very well and the b and the rest of the twenty four small Letters before they joyn them or make great Letters Set the least all of a height keep a Ruler and piece of Lead to make Lines to write on and a sharp Pen-knife and let not the Ink be thick Fourthly Those that desire to live and walk in the true Religion must above all outward Teachings mind the Reproofs of the Spirit of Truth in their own Hearts against all Sin and Evil otherwise they will turn to the Right Hand or to the Left into evil Isa 30.20 21. Gen. 6.3 John 3.19 Fifthly I have also added some necessary Questions wrought by Arithmetick which some want notwithstanding they may have learned several Rules in Arithmetick which I do believe will be acceptable to the Ingenious and some Masons and Carpenters that are lovers of Geometry and Mathematical Experiments though I have written but little thereof in this Book endeavouring that it may be a small Volume And it is more commendable for men to spend their leisure time in such harmless Studies than at idle sports and plaies knowing that for every idle word we must give an account Matth. 12.36 Lastly Hoping that none will be offended that I have given such short hints of things according to my weak Understanding yet intended for the good of those that cannot purchase large Books Yet do I believe that these things in this Book will be kindly accepted by those that are not biassed with Self-interest more than the Publick Good for I seek no honour to my self herein but the good of others that are kept in Ignorance for to God all praise belongeth who giveth true Wisdom to all those that ask it of him in his fear and they are most happy therein that seek no Glory to themselves for unto God alone it doth belong for he is worthy to rule and reign in every heart and Conscience by his Grace therein now and for ever Amen I am a Lover Of all People W.

Example Suppose I have Apple-Trees 136 Pear-Trees 076 Cherry-Trees 107 Plumb-Trees 036 In all 355 To sum it up begin at the lowest figure 6 saying 6 and 7 is 13 and 6 is 19 and 6 makes 25 set down 5 at the bottom and carry the 20 as 2 saying 2 as I carry and 3 is 5 and 7 is 12 and 3 is 15 set down the odd 5 and carry the 10 as before saying 1 and 1 is 2 and 1 is 3 set it down so the total Sum is 355. The second Rule Substraction is the taking of a less number out of a greater and to know what remains as take 9 from 11 remains 2. Set it thus From 11   Take 9 Add. Remains 2 Proof 11   Thirdly Multiplication is the multiplying two numbers together as 6 times 6 is 36 c. Example Multiplicand 6 Multiplier 6 Product 36 Mark how these figures are called and bear it in mind Fourth Rule Division is the finding of a less number in a greater saying how many times 4 can I have in 17. Answer four times and 1 remains set it thus Example For proof Multiply the Quotient 4 by the Divisor 4 and it is 16 and add the remainder 1 makes 17 equal to the Dividend How to find numbers upon Gunters Line FIrst it is figured thus as 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 to the middle then 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 at the end To find 15 on the Line For 1 take the Figure 1 for 5 take 5 of the large Divisions and that 's the point To find 134 on the Line For the figure 1 take the figure 1 on the Line for 3 take 3 of the great Divisions and for 4 take 4 of the smallest Divisions Note that the Figures 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 sometimes signifie themselves alone sometimes 10 20 30 c. sometimes 100 200 300 1000 c. Multiplication by the Line Multiply 5 by 7. Set one foot of the Compasses in 1 and extend the oth●r to 5 upwards with that extent place one foot in 7 and the other foot will fall upon 35 the Product or Answer Division by the Line Divide 35 by 7 the proof of the last Question therefore work backwards thus As 7 is to 1 so is 35 to 5 the Quotient or Answer If 45 yards of Cloath cost 30 l. what will 84 yards cost Which is As 45 to 30 l. so 84 to 56 l. Extend the Compasses downwards from 45 to 30 that extent will reach downwards from 84 to 56 l. the price Those that desire to know more of this Rule called also the Line of Proportion may buy a Book thereof written by William Leybern price 1 s. To reduce one sort of Coin or Money into another of several Nations as also Measures and Weights Example In 2990 French Crowns of 6 s. the piece how many pounds English Crowns 2990   6 Shillings 17940 Another In 798 l. how many Scotish Marks of thirteen pence half penny the piece Reduce the 798 l. into half pence and the Product divide by 27 the number of half pence in 13 ½ d. and the Quotient gives the Answer So may you reduce several other Coins from one to another Note that by the same Rule you may also reduce several sort of weights or Measures one into another by reducing your Question into pounds or ounces c. or your Measures into feet inches or Barley corns c. or into pints c. and divide the Product by the number of Ounces or Inches or Pints or Els c. that is in the measures that you would reduce it into the dividend and the divisor being both of one denomination and the Quotient will shew the Answer Therefore to gain skill be often trying with a Pen which helps more than much reading and comparing one Rule to another to see how they agree or differ by the well perusing of the Table at the end of this Book c. How to draw out upon Paper any great Letter or other thing that 's written or printed upon Paper FIrst Take a Board of about one foot square or more set it sloping like a Desk that the Light may come under it in the middle thereof make a hole of what bigness you please and place a piece of Glass therein to lie even with the Board starch the edge with Paper and it is ready for use Secondly take your Copy and lay it on the Glass and upon that a piece of Paper and pin them together at the corners and then with a Pen you may draw the Letter c. And so by use you may come to draw without a Glass Thirdly if you desire to draw a great Letter or other thing greater or less than the Copy draw cross Lines with black Lead of an equal distance upon the Letter or Copy which you may rub out again with the crumbs of white Bread like unto a harrow Then draw upon your Paper as many cross Lines at equal Distance according as you would have your Letter in bigness observing that you draw the parts of the Letter C in each square that answereth them in your Paper The Shires and Parishes in England Bedford-shire pt 116 Buckingham shire pt 185 Bark shire pt 140 Cambridg-shire pt 163 Ches-shire pt 068 Cornwell pt 161 Cumberland pt 058 Darby-shire pt 106 Devon-shire pt 394 Dorset-shire pt 248 Durham pt 118 Essex pt 415 Glocester-shire pt 280 Hamp-shire pt 253 Hereford-shire pt 176 Hartford-shire pt 120 Huntington-shire pt 078 Kent pt 398 Lanca-shire pt 036 Leicester-shire pt 200 Lincoln shire pt 630 Middlesex pt 073 London pt 121 Monmouth pt 127 Norfolk pt 660 Northampton pt 320 Northumberland pt 146 Oxford-shire pt 280 Richmond pt 104 Rutland-shire pt 047 Southampton pt 253 Shrop-shire pt 170 Somerset-shire pt 385 Stafford-shire pt 130 Suffolk

Of the unlawfulness of the Art of judicial Astrology or Astrological Predictions Being a few words taken out of a Book written by J. R. who once was a Practitioner of Astrology and Student in the Magick Art Saith in Page 33. Matth. 6.26.10.29 The very Hairs of your Heads are all numbred So that a Sparrow cannot fall nor a Hair of my Head perish without the good will and pleasure of my heavenly Father Wherefore we may plainly see that God the living God doth govern all the World by his only Wisdom and Providence so that we see here is no place for the secundarian Intelligences of the Astrologians whereupon it is evidently to be seen that their secundarian Intelligences are only pernitious and superstitious Fables whereby the Astrologers are deluded by the Devil in that they Idolize the Stars and are deceived in their Planetary Angels who they think are the good Angels of God But the Astrologers and all other that think those seven Angels which the Astrologers call Planetary Angels are good Angels I say if any man say that the said Angels are good I say that all such are deluded for whosoever saith that evil is good the same is deluded but Astrologers do call evil good in that they do affirm the Planetary Angels to be good Angels the which said Angels are Devils as I said afore For because that no man can by Conjurations cause the good Angels to appear in a visible Form at his will and pleasure But some man can cause the Planetary Angels to appear in a visible form at his Will and pleasure by Conjuration therefore the Planetary Angels are not good Angels Morover I say that these seven Planetary Angels of the Astrologers are the chief Agents for Conjurors are seven Devils which are also the Magicians chief Agents in all Magical operations In Page the 30. For Mr. Lilly Critemini Avenazre saith that the names of the Planetary Angels are viz. 1 Cassiel 2 Zachariel 3 Samael 4 Michael 5 Anael 6 Raphael 7 Gabriel Again in 31 Page These seven Angels are thus by the Astrologers appropriate unto the seven Planets that is to say unto Saturn Cassiel unto Jupiter Zachariel unto Mars Samael unto the Sun Michael unto Venus Anael unto Mercury Raphael unto the Moon Gabriel Page 35. Now the Devil maketh out himself unto the Astrologers in a dark hidden way that the Astrologers cannot see him although he work continually by him Now then the way by which the Devil and the Astrologers do work together is briefly thus viz. That the Astrologers superstitious regarding of times and their erecting of a Figure with their observing the Position of the Stars in the said Figure to this end that so they might know the event of particular things I say that this regarding of time and erecting of a Figure with the observing of the Stars therein to the end aforesaid I say it is nothing else but vain Ceremonies whereby the Planetary Angels do come to understand and know what it is the Astrologer would foretel or what the thing is of which the Astrologer would predict and foretel the event thereof So then the Astrologer's Figure being thus erected he doth from thence conjecture what shall be the event of the thing for which the Figure was erected Now the Astrologer having thus delivered his Oracle from thenceforth the Planetary Angels do all that they are able God permitting them to bring to pass that which the Astrologer did foretel Now why the Devil doth all this it is to this end that so he may uphold and maintain his Kingdom of Darkness And Page 7. The practice of it is unlawful as it is to be seen in Deut. 18.12 14. Isa 47.13 14 Let now the Astrologeas the Star-gazers the monthly Prognosticators stand up and save thee from these things which shall come upon thee Behold they shall be as Stubble the Fire shall burn them they shall not deliver themselves from the power of the Flame c. Again the practice and Practitioners thereof are condemned Thus saith the Lord Learn not the way of the Heaven and be not dismaid at the signs of Heaven for the Heathen are dismaid at them Jer. 10.2 Astrology is a vain and foolish Art because that the regarding of time without which Astrology cannot be practised is by and in the Scripture condemned for an Abomination as it doth appear in the 18 of Deut. and the 14 ver which saith thus For these Nations which thou shalt possess hearkned unto Observers of times and unto Diviners But as for thee the Lord thy God
