great_a exactness_n you_o may_v see_v nice_o when_o the_o very_a edge_n of_o the_o sun_n or_o moon_n touch_v the_o meridian_n and_o whilst_o all_o their_o body_n be_v pass_v it_o 2._o you_o may_v

continue_v your_o meridian-line_n for_o many_o mile_n if_o you_o please_v by_o look_v through_o either_o sight_n and_o see_v what_o object_n the_o plumb-line_n intersect_v 4._o if_o you_o will_v be_v still_o more_o nice_a you_o may_v apply_v a_o telescope_n to_o this_o meridian_n instrument_n by_o place_v for_o the_o eye-glass_n a_o convex_a glass_n of_o a_o convenient_a focus_n at_o a_o due_a

convenient_a distance_n from_o the_o instrument_n place_n another_o convex-glass_n for_o the_o object-glass_n 5._o if_o i_o be_o not_o much_o mistake_v this_o meridian-instrument_n may_v as_o well_o

still_o the_o plumb-line_n may_v be_v bring_v easy_o to_o their_o due_a place_n 7._o this_o instrument_n be_v prepare_v with_o little_a cost_n or_o trouble_v it_o may_v be_v carry_v from_o place_n
