A16189 The light of navigation Wherein are declared and lively pourtrayed, all the coasts and havens, of the VVest, North and East seas. Collected partly out of the books of the principall authors which have written of navigation, (as Lucas Iohnson VVaghenaer and divers others) partly also out of manie other expert seafaring mens writings and verball declarations: corrected from manie faults, and inlarged with manie newe descriptions and cardes. Divided into tvvo bookes. Heerunto are added (beside an institution in the art of navigation) nevve tables of the declination of the sonne, according to Tycho Brahes observations, applied to the meridian of Amsterdam. Together with newe tables and instructions to teach men the right use of the North-starre, and other firme starres, profitable for all seafaring men. By William Iohnson.; Licht der Zee-vaert.

else_o but_o the_o distance_n or_o space_n that_o be_v between_o the_o horizon_n and_o the_o son_n or_o star_n itself_o which_o to_o understand_v perfect_o you_o must_v mark_v that_o we_o suppose_v a_o point_n or_o prick_v to_o be_v right_a above_o our_o head_n in_o the_o heaven_n that_o be_v equal_o distant_a from_o the_o horizon_n in_o all_o place_n which_o point_n be_v call_v the_o zenith_n

to_o find_v the_o height_n the_o mathematician_n have_v devise_v divers_a fit_n instrument_n whereof_o there_o be_v two_o that_o be_v most_o to_o be_v use_v at_o sea_n which_o be_v the_o

let_v the_o son_n shine_v through_o the_o hole_n of_o the_o ear_n than_o the_o uttermost_a part_n of_o the_o dial_n count_v from_o below_o upward_o show_v how_o many_o degree_n the_o son_n be_v rise_v above_o the_o horizon_n as_o the_o former_a figure_n plain_o show_v the_o crosse-staffe_n be_v use_v thus_o you_o must_v place_v the_o end_n of_o the_o staff_n underneath_o the_o eye_n than_o you_o must_v remove_v the_o cross_n to_o and_o fro_o until_o the_o upper_a end_n of_o the_o cross_n stand_v even_o upon_o half_a the_o son_n or_o star_n and_o the_o under_o end_n just_a with_o the_o horizon_n and_o then_o the_o cross_n will_v show_v you_o upon_o the_o staff_n how_o many_o degree_n there_o be_v between_o the_o horizon_n and_o the_o son_n or_o star_n that_o be_v how_o many_o
