Gibralter and some part of the Atlantick also on the South with Mount Atlas by which it is separated from Lybia inferior or the Desarts of Lybia It is situated under the third and fourth Climates so that the longest Summers day in the parts most South amounteth to 13 hours and 3 quarters and in the most northern parts it is 14 hours and a quarter This country is now reduced to the Kingdoms of 1. Tunis 2. Tremesch or Algiers 3. Fesse and 4. Morocco Numidia Numidia is bounded on the East with Egypt on the West with the Atlantick Ocean on the North with Mount Atlas which parteth it from Barbary and Cyrene on the South with Lybia Deserta Lybia Lybia is either Interior or Deserta Libia interior is bounded on the North with Mount Atlas by which it is parted from Barbary and Cyrenaica on the East with Lybia Marmarica interposed between it and Egypt and part of AEthiopia superior or the Habassine Empire on the South with AEthiopia inferior and the Land of the Negroes and on the West with the main Atlantick Ocean Lybia deserta is bounded on the North with Numidia or Biledulgerid on the South with the Land of the Negroes and on the West with Gulata another Province of the Negroes interposed between it and the Atlantick Terra Nigritarum Terra Nigritarum or the Land of the Negroes is bounded on the East with AEthiopia Superior on the West with the Atlantick Ocean on the North with Lybia deserta and on the South with the Ethiopick Ocean and part of AEthiopia Inferior AEthiopia Superior AEthiopia Superior is bounded on the East with the Red Sea and the Sinus Barbaricus on the West with Lybia Interior the Realm of Nubia in the Land of the Negroes and part of the Kingdoms of Congo in the other AEthiopia on the North with Egypt and Lybia Marmarica and on the South with the Mountains of the Moon by which it is parted from the main Body of AEthiopia Inferior It is situate on both sides of the AEquinoctial extending from the South Parallel of seven degrees where it meeteth with some part of the other AEthiopia to the Northern end of the Isle of Meroz situated under the fifth Parallel on the North of that Circle AEthiopia Inferior AEthiopia inferior is bounded on the East with the Red Sea on the West with the Ethiopick Ocean on the North with Terra Nigritarum and the higher AEthiopia and on the South where it endeth is a point of a Conus with the main Ocean parting it from the Southern undiscovered Continent This in Ptolemyes time went under the name of Terra incognita CHAP. IV. Of America AMerica the fourth and last part of the World is bounded on the East with the Atlantick Ocean and the Vergivian Seas by which it is parted from Europe and Africa on the West with the Pacifick Ocean which divides it from Asia on the South with some part of Terra Australis incognita from which it is separated by a long but narrow Strait called the Straits of Magellan the North bounds of it hither to not so well discovered as that we can certainly affirm it to be Island or Continent It is called by some and that most aptly The new World New for the late discovery and World for the vast greatness of it The whole is naturally divided into two great Peninsules whereof that towards the North is called Mexicana That towards the South hath the name of Peruana the Isthmus which joyneth these two together is very long but narrow in some places not above 120 miles from Sea to Sea in many not above seventeen The Northern Peninsula called Mexicana may be most properly divided into the Continent and Islands The Continent again into the several Provinces of 1. Estotiland 2. Nova Francia 3. Virginia 4. Florida 5. California 6. Nova Gallicia 7. Nova Hispania 8. Guntimala The Southern Peninsula called Peruana taking in some part of the Isthmus hath on the Continent the Provinces of 1. Castella Aurea 2. Nova Granada 3. Peru 4. Chile 5. Paraguay 6. Brasil 7. Guiana and 8. Paria The Islands which belong to both are dispersed either in the Southern Ocean called Mare del Zur where there is not any one of Note but those called Los Ladrones and the Islands of Solomon Or in the Northern Ocean called Mare del Noords reduced unto the Caribes Porto-Rico Hispaniola Cuba and Iamaica And thus much concerning the real and known parts of the Terrestrial Globe CHAP. XV. Of the Description of the Terrestrial Globe by Maps Vniversal and Particular HItherto we have spoken of the true and real Terrestrial Globe and of the measure thereof by Circles Zones and Climates as it is usually represented by a Sphere or Globe which must be confessed to be the nearest and the most commensurable to nature Yet it may also be described upon a plain in whole or in part many several ways But those which are most useful and artificial are these two by Parallelogram and by Planisphere 2. The description thereof by Parallelogram is thus the Parallelogram is divided in the midst by a line drawn from North to South passing by the Azores or Canaries for the great Meridian Cross to this and at eight Angles another line is drawn from East to West for the AEquator then two parallels to each to comprehend the figure in the squares whereof there are set down four parts of the world rather than the whole And this way of description though not exact or near to the natural hath yet been followed by such as ought still to be accounted excellent and is the form of our plain Charts and in places near the AEquinoctial may be used without committing any great error because the Meridians about the AEquinoctial are equi-distant but as they draw up towards the Pole they do upon the Globe come nearer and nearer together to shew that their distance is proportionably diminished till it come to a concurrence and answerably the Parallels as they are deeper in latitude so they grow less and less with the Sphere so that at 60 degrees the Equinoctial is double to the parallel of Latitude and so proportionably of the rest 3. Hence it followeth that if the picture of the earth be drawn upon a Parallelogram so that the Meridians be equally distant throughout and the Parallels equally extended the Parellel of 60 degrees shall be as great as the line of the AEquator it self is and he that coasteth about the world in the latitude of 60 degrees shall have as far to go by this Map as he that doth it in the AEquator though the way be but half as long For the longitude of the Earth in the AEquator it self is 21600 but in the Parallel of 60 but 10800 miles So two Cities under the same parallel of 60 shall be of equal Longitude to other two under the Line and yet the first two shall be but 50 the other two an
