A96647 Willsfords arithmetick, naturall, and artificiall: or, decimalls. Containing the science of numbers, digested in three books. Made compendious and facile for all ingenious capacities, viz: merchants, citizens, sea-men, accomptants, &c. Together with the theorie and practice united in a sympathetical proportion betwixt lines and numbers, in their quantitites and qualities, as in respect of form, figure, magnitude and affection: demonstrated by geometrie, illustrated by calculations, and confirmed with variety of examples in every species. / By Thomas Willsford, Gent. Willsford, Thomas.; Vaughan, Robert, engraver. 1656 (1656) Wing W2874; Thomason E1584_1; ESTC R204128 162,697 364
