A16236	The theoriques of the seuen planets shewing all their diuerse motions, and all other accidents, called passions, thereunto belonging. Now more plainly set forth in our mother tongue by M. Blundeuile, than euer they haue been heretofore in any other tongue whatsoeuer, and that with such pleasant demonstratiue figures, as euery man that hath any skill in arithmeticke, may easily vnderstand the same. ... VVhereunto is added by the said Master Blundeuile, a breefe extract by him made, of Maginus his Theoriques, for the better vnderstanding of the Prutenicall tables, to calculate thereby the diuerse motions of the seuen planets. There is also hereto added, The making, description, and vse, of two most ingenious and necessarie instruments for sea-men ... First inuented by M. Doctor Gilbert ... and now here plainely set downe in our mother tongue by Master Blundeuile.	Blundeville, Thomas, fl. 1561.; Magini, Giovanni Antonio, 1555-1617. aut; Gilbert, William, 1540-1603.

that_o be_v conicall_a cylindricall_a and_o calathoidall_a the_o shadow_n conicall_a be_v that_o which_o end_v with_o a_o sharp_a point_n the_o cylindricall_a be_v of_o like_a bigness_n everywhere_o like_o a_o round_a pillar_n and_o the_o calathoidall_a shadow_n the_o further_a it_o extend_v the_o great_a it_o be_v like_o a_o cup_n or_o bowl_n that_o be_v narrow_a at_o the_o bottom_n and_o

in_o her_o true_a motion_n either_o swift_a or_o slow_a for_o when_o she_o be_v in_o her_o swift_a motion_n the_o continuance_n of_o her_o eclipse_n must_v needs_o be_v short_a than_o when_o she_o

the_o moon_n for_o the_o great_a that_o the_o latitude_n of_o the_o moon_n be_v the_o lesser_a and_o short_a be_v the_o eclipse_n of_o the_o sun_n but_o the_o lesser_a that_o her_o latitude_n be_v the_o great_a and_o long_o be_v the_o eclipse_n of_o the_o sun_n for_o this_o be_v a_o general_a true_a rule_n that_o if_o the_o apparent_a latitude_n of_o the_o moon_n at_o the_o time_n of_o the_o visible_a conjunction_n be_v great_a than_o the_o sum_n of_o the_o two_o semidiameter_n of_o the_o sun_n and_o of_o the_o moon_n be_v both_o add_v together_o than_o the_o sun_n shall_v not_o be_v

shall_v the_o sun_n be_v eclipse_v at_o that_o visible_a conjunction_n and_o the_o great_a that_o the_o difference_n betwixt_o the_o sum_n of_o the_o two_o semidiameter_n and_o the_o moon_n latitude_n be_v the_o great_a be_v the_o eclipse_n of_o the_o sun_n 2._o the_o second_o cause_n of_o the_o variety_n of_o the_o eclipse_n of_o the_o sun_n be_v the_o unequal_a distance_n as_o well_o of_o the_o sun_n as_o of_o the_o moon_n from_o the_o earth_n for_o the_o change_n of_o their_o distance_n from_o the_o earth_n make_v the_o diameter_n of_o their_o body_n to_o appear_v great_a or_o lesser_a for_o the_o near_a that_o they_o approach_v to_o the_o earth_n the_o great_a do_v their_o diameter_n appear_v unto_o we_o for_o when_o the_o sun_n be_v in_o the_o auge_n of_o his_o excentrique_fw-la

semidiameter_n will_v be_v i17°_n ii49°_n which_o be_v great_a than_o it_o be_v before_o by_o i2°_n ii49°_n whereby_o it_o happen_v that_o sometime_o the_o whole_a body_n of_o the_o sun_n seem_v to_o

three_o cause_n of_o the_o variety_n of_o the_o solar_a eclipse_n be_v the_o twofold_a inequality_n of_o the_o moon_n motion_n whereof_o the_o first_o depend_v upon_o the_o motion_n of_o her_o

her_o motion_n to_o appear_v variable_a every_o hour_n and_o thereby_o her_o apparent_a motion_n be_v also_o sometime_o swift_a &_o sometime_o slow_a and_o it_o happen_v that_o not_o only_o the_o

distance_n of_o the_o moon_n from_o the_o earth_n for_o by_o these_o two_o mean_n neither_o can_v the_o solar_a eclipse_n appear_v of_o a_o like_a bigness_n in_o all_o place_n in_o which_o they_o
