the_o sun_n at_o the_o sea_n the_o best_a way_n be_v to_o do_v it_o with_o the_o cross_a staff_n for_o that_o the_o sea_n be_v movable_a and_o cause_v the_o ship_n to_o heave_v and_o set_v little_a

first_o set_v the_o sun_n with_o a_o compass_n to_o know_v when_o that_o the_o sun_n come_v near_o unto_o the_o meridian_n as_o soon_o as_o you_o see_v that_o the_o sun_n be_v come_v unto_o the_o

with_o the_o cross_a staff_n when_o the_o sun_n be_v under_o 50._o degree_n in_o height_n above_o the_o horizon_n for_o two_o cause_n the_o one_o be_v this_o till_o the_o sun_n be_v .50_o degree_n in_o height_n the_o degree_n be_v large_o mark_v upon_o the_o cross_a staff_n but_o after_o the_o sun_n be_v above_o .50_o degree_n high_a they_o be_v lesser_a mark_v the_o other_o be_v for_o that_o the_o sun_n be_v under_o 50._o degree_n in_o height_n you_o may_v easy_o take_v the_o height_n because_o you_o may_v easy_o see_v or_o view_v the_o upper_a end_n and_o the_o nether_a end_n of_o the_o

and_o use_v the_o mariner_n king_n call_v by_o they_o the_o astralaby_n which_o they_o ought_v to_o call_v the_o astrolabe_n astrolabe_n now_o to_o take_v the_o height_n of_o the_o sun_n with_o the_o

in_o
i_o do_v find_v the_o sun_n just_a .20_o degree_n above_o the_o horizon_n again_o &_o then_o i_o set_v the_o sun_n with_o the_o compass_n and_o do_v find_v the_o sun_n to_o be_v at_o .20_o degree_n in_o height_n west_n southwest_n so_o that_o i_o see_v the_o compass_n to_o be_v vary_v one_o point_n that_o be_v to_o say_v the_o north_n point_n do_v stand_v north_n &_o by_o east_n etc_n etc_n another_o way_n also_o to_o know_v the_o true_a meridian_n be_v by_o the_o sun_n that_o be_v to_o set_z the_o sun_n with_o the_o compass_n at_o her_o great_a height_n above_o the_o horizon_n &_o so_o

the_o swiftness_n of_o the_o moon_n motion_n in_o the_o zodiac_n you_o may_v also_o find_v the_o variation_n of_o the_o compass_n by_o the_o north_n star_n as_o thus_o set_v the_o north_n star_n with_o the_o compass_n if_o the_o north_n point_n do_v stand_v right_a with_o the_o star_n than_o it_o be_v not_o vary_v but_o if_o it_o do_v not_o stand_v right_n with_o the_o star_n than_o it_o be_v

etc_o etc_o this_o have_v i_o say_v because_o that_o sometime_o in_o sundry_a place_n the_o compass_n do_v vary_v &_o especial_o in_o the_o sail_v of_o long_a viage_n run_v east_n and_o west_n vary_v call_v the_o northeast_n or_o northwest_v of_o the_o compass_n therefore_o i_o will_v not_o wish_v they_o to_o meddle_v with_o the_o mend_n of_o their_o compass_n or_o whet_v of_o the_o side_n of_o the_o néedell_o to_o the_o end_n to_o make_v it_o to_o stand_v due_a north_n but_o circumspect_o to_o await_v the_o alter_n of_o the_o compass_n and_o what_o quantity_n it_o do_v alter_v as_o you_o

you_o may_v know_v the_o longitude_n but_o i_o be_o not_o of_o that_o opinion_n for_o i_o admit_v that_o it_o be_v so_o as_o some_o do_v affirm_v that_o the_o compass_n do_v vary_v as_o some_o have_v

very_o far_o from_o the_o meridian_n that_o the_o compass_n be_v make_v for_o than_o the_o variation_n be_v so_o slow_a that_o you_o can_v have_v no_o judgement_n at_o all_o by_o the_o variation_n of_o the_o compass_n to_o find_v any_o longitude_n and_o furthermore_o if_o the_o compass_n do_v vary_v by_o that_o proportion_n that_o martin_n curtise_n do_v affirm_v i_o be_o of_o that_o opinion_n that_o there_o may_v grow_v some_o error_n in_o proportion_n in_o those_o compass_n that_o be_v make_v for_o any_o meridian_n compass_n for_o those_o compass_n that_o be_v make_v here_o with_o we_o in_o england_n whereof_o the_o needle_n do_v stand_v .4_o or_o .5_o degree_n unto_o the_o eastward_o of_o the_o north_n as_o do_v appear_v by_o all_o the_o needle_n make_v for_o dial_n &_o also_o in_o the_o compass_n if_o they_o will_v have_v the_o north_n point_n to_o stand_v due_a north_n than_o the_o end_n of_o the_o wire_n under_o the_o card_n of_o the_o compass_n shall_v stand_v four_o or_o five_o degree_n unto_o the_o eastward_o of_o the_o flouredeluce_n wherefore_o it_o may_v be_v doubt_v that_o the_o compass_n may_v vary_v more_o the_o one_o way_n than_o it_o will_v the_o other_o way_n by_o that_o proportion_n that_o the_o end_n of_o the_o wire_n do_v stand_v beside_o from_o the_o north_n point_n for_o if_o in_o the_o great_a variation_n the_o end_n of_o the_o wire_n under_o the_o card_n of_o the_o compass_n do_v stand_n northwest_o the_o flouredeluce_n of_o the_o compass_n shall_v stand_v near_o half_a a_o point_n to_o the_o westward_n of_o the_o northwest_o and_o in_o like_a manner_n at_o the_o great_a variation_n if_o the_o end_n of_o the_o wire_n do_v stand_v north-east_n than_o the_o flouredeluce_n shall_v stand_v near_o half_a a_o point_n unto_o the_o northwards_o of_o the_o north-east_n etc_n etc_n and_o furthermore_o here_o be_v one_o thing_n that_o i_o can_v never_o understand_v the_o truth_n of_o and_o yet_o i_o have_v oftentimes_o demand_v the_o question_n of_o divers_a that_o have_v be_v in_o the_o west_n part_n in_o the_o bay_n of_o america_n know_v and_o that_o be_v this_o whether_o in_o the_o compass_n there_o make_v or_o in_o the_o dial_n that_o be_v there_o make_v the_o end_n of_o the_o needle_n do_v stand_v due_a north_n or_o not_o and_o yet_o it_o have_v not_o be_v my_o chance_n to_o meet_v with_o any_o that_o can_v tell_v for_o if_o it_o be_v so_o that_o those_o needle_n that_o be_v there_o touch_v do_v stand_v due_a north_n th●n_v it_o be_v very_o good_a for_o they_o that_o shall_v occupy_v long_a traverse_n unto_o the_o westward_n or_o eastward_o to_o have_v diverse_a compass_n ready_a make_v with_o the_o needle_n of_o they_o untouched_a and_o to_o carry_v a_o good_a loadstone_n with_o they_o to_o touch_v those_o compass_n when_o the_o compass_n have_v the_o great_a variation_n it_o be_v good_a for_o these_o two_o cause_n the_o one_o cause_n it_o be_v the_o better_a to_o direct_v your_o course_n by_o but_o this_o cause_n be_v very_o special_a to_o give_v a_o near_a guess_n of_o the_o longitude_n that_o be_v to_o say_v the_o compass_n will_v vary_v more_o quick_o according_a to_o the_o order_n before_o write_v by_o which_o you_o see_v they_o may_v transport_v themselves_o further_o unto_o the_o eastward_o or_o westward_n before_o that_o the_o compass_n do_v vary_v one_o point_n than_o it_o do_v for_o the_o other_o three_o point_n so_o that_o they_o be_v not_o able_a to_o give_v any_o estimation_n at_o all_o compass_n by_o the_o vary_a of_o the_o compass_n to_o know_v any_o longitude_n for_o that_o they_o may_v travel_v more_o than_o the_o quarter_n of_o the_o circumference_n of_o the_o earth_n before_o the_o compass_n will_v be_v vary_v one_o point_n backward_o and_o forward_o and_o i_o do_v very_o much_o marvel_n at_o this_o consider_v how_o many_o time_n english_a man_n have_v be_v in_o the_o west_n indies_n that_o i_o can_v meet_v with_o no_o man_n that_o can_v tell_v whether_o the_o needle_n of_o the_o dial_n or_o compass_n make_v there_o do_v stand_v due_a north_o or_o not_o which_o be_v a_o thing_n that_o may_v be_v easy_o know_v for_o the_o needle_n of_o the_o dial_n it_n be_v s●ene_v see_v and_o in_o like_a manner_n of_o the_o compass_n north._n for_o if_o the_o needle_n of_o the_o compass_n there_o make_v will_v not_o stand_v due_a north_n than_o it_o be_v reform_v upon_o the_o card_n of_o the_o fly_n of_o the_o compass_n as_o if_o the_o north_n end_n of_o the_o wire_n do_v stand_v north-east_n than_o they_o will_v set_v north-east_n over_o it_o even_o as_o we_o do_v set_v the_o end_n of_o the_o wire_n of_o the_o compass_n with_o we_o make_v near_o half_a a_o point_n to_o the_o eastward_o of_o the_o north_n etc_n etc_n and_o furthermore_o
