meane to be reprehended in that the most wisest yea the holye fathers haue practised that sciēce He proueth it one of the chief sciences Mathematical by the autoritie of the best learned and by Aristotele in hys Posteriorum Howe commeth it to passe louinge Reader seynge it is a noble science et scientia est notitia vera conclusionum quibus propter demonstrationem firmiter assentimur that it
