These moueable Feasts the first Lent Sunday Easter day Rogation dayes Whitsunday and how many weekes betwixt Whitsunday and Midsommer day First I finde the Prime this yeare 17. which 17. I looke out vnder the title of Prime in the Table before Then I seeke in the next order and after the Prime for the Dominicall letter that yeare Now in right order according to the title I finde the third of March to bee the first Lent Sunday the 14. of Aprill Easter day the 12. of May Rogation the 2. of Iune Whitsunday and 3. weekes and 1. day betwixt Whitsunday and Midsummer day Thus for euer How to know the age of the Moone then the chaunge and quarter for euer FIrst learne the Epact as I haue instructed for that yeare ye seeke to know the age of the Moone then reckon how many dayes are past of the moneth which day ye desire to know the age Put that number to the Epact Then begin at March and reckon for euery moneth from him orderly one vntil your said day including both the moneth of March and also the moneth of your sayd day Adde all these dayes vnto your former number putting away as many thirtie dayes as ye finde The rest is the age of the Moone The age found the chaunge is knowne If ye adde seuen dayes to the change yee haue the first quarter then seauen dayes and somewhat more sheweth the full and so to it adding seuen and more bringeth the last quarter thus by seuen vnto the new Moone Example The tenth day of Ianuary the yeare then being 1555. I desire the age of the Moone I finde the Epact vntill March ensuing to be twentie sixe that added vnto tenne maketh thirtie sixe then eleuen for the moneths from March to Ianuary including both moneths bringing fortie seuen now thirtie pulled away leaueth seuenteene the age of the Moone Now ensue the perfect Tables declaring the true houre and minute of ebbing and flowing in most coasts of England Example The first day of Ianuarie I desire all the aforesaid that is the breake of the day the very minute of the Sunne rising the length of the day and also of the night the Sunne going downe and the twylight I finde on the right hand of Ianuarie these numbers running downe 1.10.20 which declare the first day the 10. day and twentith of that moneth Now to my purpose I require the breake of the day c. The first of Ianuarie in the Table vnder the title on

the right hand of this figure 1 I see 5. houres and 54. minutes that is sixe of the clocke wanting 6. minutes The rising of the Sunne in that order is iust at eight as this figure 8. there declareth vnder that title in the row The length of the day eight houres the length of the night 16. houres the Sunne setting is at foure the twylight at 6. and 6. minutes Euen thus for the tenth day and also for the twentith of that moneth in the rowes according to their titles in the head of my Tables How to worke by proportion when the day is not found I Would know all the aforesaid the first day of Ianuarie I take for example the breake of the day Remember the first day of Ianuarie I did finde the breake to be at fiue of the clocke and 54. minutes and the tenth day I may finde the breake of the day to bée at 5. and 44. minutes that is 10. minutes lesse I see now 10. daies doe giue me 10. minutes lesse I see therefore by proportion the fift day must giue 5. minuts lesse than 5. houres 54. minuts which is 5. houres 49 minutes my request Thus for all the other titles The houre of the night by the Moone is otherwise found than before and that diuersly THe houre of her rising knowne as is opened and a mark then made where she shadoweth in any true fixed or moueable Sun diall the houres and minutes from that marke all the night after are to be added to her rising If more than 12. surmount only that aboue 12. sheweth the true houre and minute If at the rising she may not be seene then by the Sunne rising in that very Signe with the helpe of this Almanack you may perceiue what houre she would note at her rising Therefore from that marke count An other way WHen the moone is at the full looke what houre her shadow sheweth in any Dial that is the houre of the night After she is past the full 28. houres ye must adde one houre But afore the full pull one from that yee finde in the Diall If twise 28. two houres c. so haue ye the houre of the right How the houre of the day by Right shadow that is by any thing directly standing vp is knowne and by Squire shadow also FIrst it behoueth you to haue a Staffe or any other thing diuided in 12. equall parts When ye list to haue the houre set vp directly your deuided Staffe on a plaine leuell ground or boord c. Note the iust length of the shadowe what parts it containeth With those enter your moneth in the peculiar Kalendar following beholding diligently vnder the name of the moneth the small enclosed Tables considering well which of those small Tables are neerest vnto your day and that iudge by the signe or day there noted That table serueth your purpose where you must looke out the parts of the shadow afore ●ound or neere vnto it vnder or ouer the which the houre is set before or after noone Note the two prickes there signifie halfe a part more then is noted one pricke halfe a part lesse Here it is also to be noted that euery table hath within two rowes of figures the vpper is for the Staffe the other for the Squire shadow And whatsoeuer is before said of the one that same is meant here of the other sauing of the Composition The Squire must be deuided from the inward angle to the ende of one side in 12. equall parts euen so from that angle the other side into 24. like parts as this figure sheweth These to the wittie suffice The composition of an Instrument for the houre of the night which is also a perfect Diall for the day and excellent for the Mariner THe taking of an Altitude supposed I could exactly in few and that without an Instrument satisfie For want of y e knowledge The vse of these Tables WHen you will know the full Sea seeke out the name of the place where you desire the full water in the head of the Tables or learne the poynts of the Compasse there noted or if you list know of some mariner what Moone maketh a full sea there a Southwest or South Moone c. Then y e age of y e Moone found vnder y e place or point of y e compasse sheweth in right order the houre and minute of the full water The ebbe then is manifest Example I desire to know the full water at London bridge the yeare of our Lord 1555. the sixt day of February I finde by rules before put foorth the 6 day of February the yeare aforesayd the Moone to bee 14. dayes olde I see also vnder the title where London is S.W. which letters signifie that a Southwest Moone maketh a ful Sea there and that is at 2. of the clocke and 12. minutes past This is well perceiued in the first Table before put foorth if you run downe to y e 14. day of the age of the Moone vnder Lōdon title A note of the houre of the day and night THe ingenious may gather neere about the houre of the day and night by the Moone consideration had of the poynts in those Tables of tydes before noted For the houre is orderly put vnder the poynt of the compasse Euery part or poynt contayning 11. degres and ¼ this compasse is wel figured neere about the Centre in the instrument following for the night houre because ye may by it haue a delectable large vse of these tide tables How by the first of the tide tables ye may readily know when the Moone commeth into the South when she riseth and setteth with her continuance on the earth SEeke the age of the Moone as is opened then resort to the first tide table looking out that age there So vnder the South poynt in right order the houre appeareth when she commeth vnto the South Then hath she spent halfe that arcke that the Sun would haue had in that Signe which pulled away sheweth the rising that halfe arcke also added to her comming vnto the South declareth her going downe The arck then that the Sun would haue had in the signe is her continuance on the earth A Table at all times plainly and briefly declaring the breake of the day the houre and minute of the Sunne rising the iust length of the day the length of the night also the very minute of the Sunne setting and the twylight Monethes Dayes Break of the day Sunne rysinge Lengthe of the day Lēgthe of the night Sunne settinge Twylyghte Dayes Monethes of the daye     H.

Now lay a ruler on a Centre euen with some diuisions drawing thorow to the extreames of the Circle a line Then crosse that with another These two must diuide your circle in 4. equall parts which lines shew the very East West North and South when by a Meridian or square diall with a needle rectified they are placed Now to the end set a small straight wier a foote or more long with a Uane in the top plum vpright in the Centre and there fasten it Thus this Instrumēt is finished to be fixed about your house equidistant or leuell with the Horizon hauing a needle if ye list in it truly to plage it when and where you will That it may be also a Diall for the day you must pull straight lines from y e extremitie of your circle outward to euery fifteenth part decking them with Charactors conueniently as ye see the figure your rule keeping the Centre Thus when the Sunne shineth the shadow of the wier sheweth the true houre the Uane the windes c. being truly plaged well placed and reared as followeth The points of the compasse are drawn within the circle and about the Centre euery point containing 11. degrees and a halfe The instrument as you see is enclosed round about with a Square for the Mariners ayde Truly few words cannot expresse the excellencie of this Square for their vse No otherwise to bee opened then learned Gemma hath inuented and plainly declared here omitted of me not fully occasioned now to write that way I haue appoynted a meeter place for this and like matter In the meane time I am readie in word and deede to further the desirefull in this or any other Beholde this instrument for Nauigation most commodious the vse of which is here only put forth according to my inuention The right rearing and placing of the Diall tofore mentioned LIft vp handsomely your Instrument or Diall toward the North in some meete place the side of a squire lying on it vntill the plummet and line centred in the extreame vpper part of the other side of your Squire like long cut all that Squire side which lieth on your Instrument the fift part onely except Then moue your Instrument hither and thither this or that way vntil the shadow of the wire fall vpon the houre of y e day keeping diligently your height before Your Diall thus fixed declareth all the yeere long the exact houre and parts thereof No Diall in trueth excelleth this Haue in remembrance that this Instrument must lie leuell nothing at al reared for the houre of the night by starre To get the exact houre by two Starres of the first light with an Instrument or Circle tofore diuided first of me inuented calculated and practised THe Instrument equidistantly set and plaged as is declared in composition ye ought to lay the edge of a ruler vnto the wire the other nether end touching the Instrument mouing here and there still touching the wire vntill either Starre doth offer it selfe with that edge and that by the iudgement of the eye Then put downe discreetly your ruler euer touching the wire the hinder end not mooued obseruing how many parts are cut from the North to the edge of the Ruler Enter with them the peculiar Kalendar following seeking out your moneth placed in the middest of euery Table then the day of that moneth must bee there found Note that euery table hath on the sides the daies thus ordered 1.5.10.15.20.25.30 Know the order or row of figures which is right against or neerest your day serueth the turne The number or parts before cut by the ruler and now found in the row of your table sheweth the precise houre If it be too little that houre ouer the head or vnder is not yet come if contrarie it is past How these two bright starres being of the first light are found the one called Aldebaran or Oculus Tauri the other Alramech THe best way is thus The moneth and day knowne with the true houre of the night enter your Table considering that moneth and day obserue what parts belongeth there to that starre and houre Then resort to your Instrument laying the edge of your ruler as many parts from the North Eastward circumspectly lifting vp the edge close by the wire so the fayre starre shineth euen with that edge Or thus grosly OCulus Tauri is euer a meete rod and a halfe to the eye vnder the seuen starres and somewhat North of them in the rising Alramech is contrarie to him plaged accompanied with three little dimme starres a rod from him by the iudgement of the sight in the forme of a Triangle thus Behold this figure the great Starre dooth represent Alramech the other three in the Triangle which is placed alwayes with him but commonly there doth appeare but one Starre of the Triangle NOW ENSVETH THE needefull necessarie peculiar Kalendar tofore mentioned with Instruments belonging thereto The composition and appliance of the said

nature of the whole No otherwise is it to these things that by fiery force are caried vpward For the earthly fire is chiefly nourished with earthly matter and flame is defined to bee naught els but burning fume or smoke and that the propertie of fire is to extend the subiect whereinto it entereth the which it doth with so great violence as by no meanes or engines it can be constrayned but that with breach of ●ants it will performe his nature This motion extensiue is from the Centre to the circumference so that if any earthly part be fiered it is carried violently vpward Therefore whereas they say that of simple bodies the motion is altogether simple of the circular it is chiefely verified so long as the simple bodie remayneth in his naturall place and perfite vnitie of composition for in the same place there can bee no other motion but circular which remaining wholy in it selfe is most like to rest an immobilitie But right or straight motion onely happen to those things that stray and warder or by any meanes are thrust out of their natural place But nothing can be more repugnant to the forme and ordinance of the world then that things naturally should be out of their naturall place This kind of motion therfore that is by right line is onely accident to those things that are not in their right state or prefection naturall while parts are disioyned from their whole bodie and couet to returne to the vnitie there of againe Neither doe these things which are carried vpward or downeward besides this circular moouing make any simple vniforme or equall motion for which their leuitie or ponderositie of their bodie they cannot be tempered but alwayes as they fall beginning slowly they increase their motion the further the more swiftly whereas contrariwise this our earthly fire for other wee cannot see wee may beholde as it is carried vpwarde to vanish and decay as it were confessing the cause of violence to proceede onely from his matter terrestriall The circular motion alway continueth vniforme and equall by reason of his cause which is indeficient and alway continuing But the other hasteneth to the end and to attaine that place where they leaue longer to be heauie or light and hauing attained that place their motion ceaseth Seeing therfore this circular motion is proper to the whole as straight is onely vnto parts we may say that circular doeth rest with straight as animal cum aegro And whereas Aristotle hath distributed simplicem motum into these three kinds A medio ad medium and circa medium it must bee onely in reason and imagination as wee likewise seuer in consideration Geometricall a poynt a line and a superficies whereas in deede neither can stande without other ne any of them without a bodie Hereto wee may adioyne that the condition of immobilitie is more noble and diuine than that of change alteration or instabilitie and therefore more agréeable to Heauen than to this Earth where all things are subiect to continuall mutabilitie And seeing by euident proofe of Geometricall mensuration wée finde that the Planets are sometimes nigher to vs and somtimes more remote and that therefore euen the maintainers of the Earths stabilitie are enforced to confesse that the earth is not their Orbes Centre this motion circa Medium must in more generall sort bée taken and that it may bée vnderstand that euery Orbe hath his peculiar Medium and Centre in regard whereof this simple and vniforme motion is to be considered Séeing therfore that these Orbs haue seuerall Centres it may bee doubted whether the Centre of this earthly grauitie be also the Centre of the world For grauitie is nothing else but a certaine procliuity or naturall coueting of parts to be coupled with the whole which by diuine prouidence of the Creator of all is giuen and impressed into the parts that they should restore themselues into their vnitie and integritie concurring in Sphericall forme Which kind of proprietie or affection it is likely also that the Moone and other glorious bodies want not to knit and combine their parts together and to maintaine them in their round shape which bodies notwithstanding are by sundrie motions sundrie waies conueied Thus as it is apparant by these naturall reasons that the mobilitie of the Earth is more probable and likely than the stabilitie so if it be Mathematically considered and Geometricall mensurations euery part of euerie Theoricke examined the discréete student shall finde that Copernicus not without great reason did propone this ground of the Earths mobilitie A short discourse touching the variation of the Compasse MArueilous no doubt is that naturall proprietie of the Magnes whereby the néedle touched immediatly turneth to some one certaine point of the Heauens and after sundrie motions hither and thither findeth rest onely in one place and point And albeit this point in seuerall Horizons be different yet in any one Horizon it rem●ineth alway permanent and therfore it plainly appeareth that the same proceedeth of some constant permanent cause naturall and not of any mutable vncertaine cause accidentall But what this cause should bee no man hitherto hath truely discouered To omit apparant absurd opinions the most probable of those that haue been giuen and generally best allowed is the point Attractiue which should bee of such vertue as to draw the needle touched alway toward the same point but whether this point should bee in the heauens or earth is another controuersie Such as will haue it in the earth affirme it to bee a huge mountaine or rocke of Magnes stone distant from the Pole certaine grades which drawing the needle to it selfe alwaies causeth it to make an angle of variation from the Pole of the world saue onely vnder the Meridian that passeth by the same Attractiue point But the error of this opinion will soone be found of them that shall vpon this supposition and two different angles of variation search out the place of that point Attractiue the same being in that Intersection of the two Circles of position by the variations determined and then conferre that with some third angle of variation wherby it shal plainly appeare that in the earth no such one Attractiue point can be imagined as shal by circle of opposition produce such variations as in Nauigation haue been discouered And to place this point Attractiue in any of the heauēs it would appeare more absurd For whether the Heauens moue and the Earth rest immoueable or the Earth moue and the great Orbe of starres be permanent as of necessitie the one or the other must be true considering a
