3 is 37 5 is 42 1 is 43 set down 3 carry 4 saying 4 that I carry 9 is 13 3 is 16 4 is 20 6 is 26 2 is 28 1 is 29 1 is 30 5 is 35 which you are to set down as in the Example And the Sum total is 353 l. 00. 04½ To prove that it is right cast up do it without the upper line and then add the upper line to it and if both makes up what it is cast up to it is right else not Subtraction SUbtraction teacheth how to take any lesser Number out of a greater and to know what remains as in these Examples I at several times took into my custody 1597 Sheep and I delivered forth 1359. I would know how many yet remain with me Received 1597 Delivered 1359 Remains 0238 Proof 1597 Received 95459 Delivered 39569 Remains 55890 Proof 95459 If all the Figures of the smaller Sum except the last Figure to the Left Hand or any one of them be greater of the Sum to be subtracted than those of the upper line you must subtract from you must borrow ten and add 1 to the upper Figure next to be considered as in the foregoing Example Take 9 out of 7 you cannot but 9 out of 17 and there remains 8 the 1 that I borrowed and 5 makes 6 take 6 out of 9 and there remains 3 take 3 out of 5 and there remains 2 take 1 out of 1 and there remains 0 nothing For proof if what you delivered and what remains make up the whole number received it is right cast up as in the foregoing Example plainly appears I received 1597 I delivered 1359 Remains 0238 Proof 1597 9 and 8 is 17 write down 7 and carry 1 then 1 and 5 is 6 and 3 is 9 3 and 2 is 5 and 1 is 1 as in the Example Subtraction of Money THis Rule teacheth how to take any lesser sum out of a greater and to know what Remains Note that if some Figure or Figures be greater in the lesser or lower Sum than in the upper borrow one from the next Denomination as in Pence to borrow a Shilling in Shillings you must borrow a Pound and in Pounds you are to borrow Ten as before in Addition and in the following Examples more plainly appear   l. s. d. Received 432 10 4 Paid 256 19 9 Remains 175 10 7 Proof 432 10 4 Which foregoing Sum is cast up thus take 9 out of 4 that you cannot but take 9 out of one Shilling 4 pence and there remains 7 which you set down under the pence and say the Shilling that I borrowed to make 4 pence one Shilling 4 pence must be paid to the 19 Shillings saying 19 and 1 that I borrowed makes 20 take 20 Shillings out of 10 Shillings I cannot but take 20 Shillings out of one Pound 10 Shillings and there remains 10 which is set down under the Shillings then say 6 and 1 that I borrowed makes 7 take 7 out of 2 I cannot but take 7 out of 12 and there remains 5. 1 that I borrowed and 5 make 6 take 6 out of 3 I cannot but take 6 out of 13 and there remains 7 the one that I borrowed and 2 make 3 and take 3 out of 4 and there remains 1 which is to be proved as in the former Rule Multiplication Table 2 times 2 is 4 3 6 4 8 5 10 6 12 7 14 8 16 9 18 3 times 3 is 9 4 12 5 15 6 18 7 21 8 24 9 27 4 times 4 is 16 5 20 6 24 7 28 8 32 9 36 5 times 5 is 25 6 30 7 35 8 40 9 45 6 times 6 is 36 7 42 8 48 9 54 7 times 7 is 49 8 56 9 63 8 times 8 is 64 9 72 9 times 9 is 81 10 times 10 is 100 Multiplication MUltiplication serveth in stead of many Additions and teacheth of two Numbers given to increase the greater as often as are Units in the lesser Three things strictly to be observed viz. 1. The Multiplicand or Sum to be multiplied 2. The Multiplyer or Sum you multiply by 3. The Product or Sum produced from both Example In 52 Weeks which is a whole Year I would know how many days are there To do this first set down the greatest Number and the lesser under it beginning at the Right hand thus 52 Multiplicand 7 Multiplier 364 Product Come to the Multiplyer and say 7 times 2 is 14 then write 4 under 7 and carry 1 to the next place saying 7 times 5 is 35 and 1 I carried makes 36 which you are to set down having no further place to carry them and so it appears that there are in 52 Weeks 364 Days A Second Example I Would know how many Farthings are in 712 Shillings Note that 48 Farthings make a Shilling and to answer your question first set down your Multiplicand and under that the Multiplyer thus 712 Multiplicand 48 Multiplyer 5696 Product 2848   34176   For the second Example of Farthings after you have set down your Sum as you see then say 8 times 2 is 16 set down 6 and carry 10 as in Addition and say 8 times 1 and 1 I carried makes 9 which you are to set down then say 8 times 7 is 56 which you must set down then say 4 times 2 is 8 which you are to set down 4 times 1 is 4 which you set down and 4 times 7 is 28 which you are to put down and sum up the whole and it appears that there are 34176 Fa●things in 712 Shillings A Compassionate Sigh for Londons dismal Conflagration On the Authors amazing view of those devouring Flames that laid London's Glory in the Dust Sept. 4. 1666. BEhold what Desolation's made by Sin In England's most Renowned Mother-City We to those furious Flames did fuel bring To th' spoiling Her whose Ruins Challenge Pity Stay wondering Passenger let 's now begin To shew our Pity and lament our Sin. What Man so impious as to smile Alas The Christian World for this hath cause to mourn 'T was England's Sin brought London to this pass And made the Fire imperiously to burn Our want of Love did London thus inflame To many Thousands loss and Englands shame God highly was displeas'd when thus he brought So much of that great City to the Dust And had he then consum'd us all to nought We must acknowledg'd LORD that thou are just Thou great Preserver we thy Love admire In saving us as Brands snatcht from the Fire O Happy Citizens and English Nation If London's Flames refine us from our Dross If Plague and Fire produce a Reformation How great will be our gain by London's loss Then from her Ashes Phoenix-like shall fly A Glorious City fair and rich and high And let all Sons of Hell that shall conspire How on the rest they may Destruction bring Receive at Tyburn their deserved hire LORD plead our cause preserve us and our
