the_o extent_n of_o two_o right_a one_o for_o it_o be_v plain_a enough_o that_o the_o two_o tube_n i_o first_o describe_v apply_v to_o the_o quadrant_n will_v measure_v any_o angle_n to_o a_o quadrant_n or_o right_a angle_n and_o it_o will_v be_v as_o easy_a to_o understand_v how_o by_o the_o help_n of_o the_o reverse-tube_n any_o angle_n between_o a_o quadrant_n and_o two_o right_a angle_n may_v be_v measure_v to_o make_v this_o a_o little_a plain_o to_o the_o reader_n let_v c_o c_o c_o c_o c_o in_o the_o 12_o figure_n represent_v the_o under_o tube_n or_o fix_a sight_n be_v

than_o a_o quadrant_n if_o the_o forepart_n of_o the_o tube_n be_v use_v by_o so_o much_o be_v the_o angle_n more_o than_o a_o quadrant_n if_o the_o reverse_n or_o back_n part_n of_o the_o tube_n be_v
