A77649	The description and use of the carpenters-rule: together with the use of the line of numbers (inscribed thereon) in arithmetick and geometry. And the application thereof to the measuring of superficies and solids, gaging of vessels, military orders, interest and annuities: with tables of reduction, &c. : To which is added, the use of a (portable) geometrical sun-dial, with a nocturnal on the backside, for the exact and ready finding the hour of the day and night: and other mathematical conclusions. Also of a universal-dial for the use of seamen or others. With the use of a sliding or glasiers-rule and Mr. White's rule for solid measure. / Collected and fitted to the meanest capacity by J. Browne.	Brown, John, philomath.; Gaywood, Richard, fl. 1650-1680.	1667 (1667)	Wing B5039D; ESTC R173095	73,644	256

8._o and_o last_o in_o the_o spare_a room_n beyond_o the_o aequinoctial_a you_o have_v set_v a_o perpetual_a almanac_n whereby_o if_o you_o know_v the_o day_n of_o the_o month_n you_o may_v find_v

thus_o much_o for_o description_n one_o thing_n more_o i_o think_v convenient_a to_o hint_n to_o make_v it_o serve_v for_o all_o fashion_n of_o dial_n of_o this_o kind_n and_o it_o be_v this_o some_o dial_n of_o this_o kind_n have_v the_o calendar_n of_o month_n and_o day_n on_o the_o backside_n in_o 1_o 2_o or_o 4_o circle_n and_o line_n of_o the_o sun_n declination_n rise_v true_a place_n and_o

foreside_n which_o be_v sufficient_a for_o the_o hour_n of_o the_o day_n the_o thing_n promise_v note_v also_o that_o by_o the_o addition_n of_o on_o line_n it_o be_v make_v to_o serve_v for_o all_o

observation_n hang_v the_o string_n of_o the_o dial_n over_o your_o thumb_n on_o your_o left_a hand_n or_o you_o may_v hold_v it_o between_o your_o thumb_n and_o the_o middle_n of_o your_o forefinger_n and_o stretch_v your_o 4_o finger_n straight_o out_o and_o let_v the_o dial_n hang_v at_o liberty_n just_o touch_v the_o palm_n of_o your_o hand_n that_o it_o may_v be_v steady_a then_o turn_v your_o whole_a body_n about_o till_o the_o edge_n of_o the_o dial_n or_o your_o finger_n end_n be_v just_a against_o the_o sun_n then_o shall_v you_o see_v the_o shadow_n of_o any_o thing_n stick_v in_o the_o centre_n though_o never_o so_o short_a to_o reach_v quite_o through_o the_o dial_n and_o then_o it_o be_v hold_v right_o prob._n 2._o to_o find_v the_o sun_n altitude_n stick_v a_o pin_n the_o small_a the_o better_o in_o the_o centre_n and_o hold_v it_o up_o as_o before_o and_o the_o shadow_n will_v show_v on_o the_o limb_n the_o sun_n altitude_n require_v example_n at_o 8_o of_o the_o clock_n on_o the_o 11_o of_o june_n in_o the_o morning_n i_o will_v know_v the_o sun_n altitude_n i_o hold_v it_o up_o as_o before_o and_o i_o find_v it_o to_o be_v 36.46_o that_o be_v 36_o degree_n and_o 46_o minute_n each_o degree_n be_v 60_o minute_n as_o in_o the_o table_n of_o reduction_n prob._n 3._o to_o find_v the_o perpendicular_a height_n of_o any_o thing_n by_o its_o shadow_n by_o the_o line_n of_o shadow_n hold_v up_o the_o dial_n by_o the_o thread_n as_o before_o and_o look_v on_o what_o division_n of_o the_o line_n shadow_n the_o shadow_n of_o the_o pin_n cut_v that_o be_v the_o true_a height_n or_o length_n of_o the_o shadow_n by_o which_o to_o get_v the_o height_n of_o any_o perpendicular_a thing_n or_o the_o very_a top_n of_o any_o lean_a thing_n that_o cause_v the_o shadow_n example_n on_o the_o same_o 11_o of_o june_n at_o near_o 9_o a_o clock_n in_o the_o morning_n i_o hold_v up_o my_o dial_n and_o i_o find_v the_o shadow_n to_o fall_v just_a on_o 1_o on_o the_o line_n of_o shadow_n or_o 45_o on_o the_o degree_n therefore_o i_o say_v that_o the_o height_n of_o the_o object_n that_o cause_v the_o shadow_n and_o the_o shadow_n be_v both_o of_o one_o length_n but_o if_o it_o have_v fall_v on_o 2_o that_o be_v to_o say_v of_o right_a shadow_n than_o the_o object_n be_v but_o half_o the_o length_n of_o the_o shadow_n measure_v upon_o a_o level_a ground_n from_o the_o end_n of_o the_o shadow_n to_o right_v under_o the_o object_n that_o cause_v the_o shadow_n if_o it_o fall_v on_o 3_o the_o shadow_n be_v 3_o time_n as_o long_o as_o the_o thing_n be_v and_o so_o to_o 12_o to_z 12_o time_n long_o and_o the_o stroke_n between_o note_n one_o ten_o 2_o ten_o 3_o ten_o &c._n &c._n more_o but_o if_o it_o fall_v beyond_o 1_o on_o contrary_a shadow_n than_o the_o shadow_n be_v short_a according_o as_o will_v appear_v very_o plain_a with_o a_o little_a practice_n or_o rather_o thus_o by_o the_o number_n count_n the_o middle_n 1_o on_o the_o rule_n as_o 1_o at_o 45_o on_o the_o dial_n then_o if_o the_o sun_n be_v under_o 45_o count_v they_o on_o the_o rule_n towards_o 10_o and_o if_o above_o 45_o the_o contrary_a then_o as_o the_o part_n cut_v be_v to_o the_o middle_n 1_o so_o be_v the_o length_n of_o the_o shadow_n to_o the_o altitude_n require_v prob._n 4._o the_o use_n of_o the_o quadrat_fw-la to_o use_v the_o quadrat_fw-la you_o must_v have_v a_o hole_n in_o the_o other_o end_n of_o the_o horizontal_a line_n and_o also_o some_o where_n in_o the_o dial_n square_a from_o the_o centre_n to_o the_o horizontal_a line_n also_o you_o must_v have_v a_o thread_n and_o plummet_n than_o the_o use_n be_v thus_o stick_v a_o pin_n in_o the_o centre_n and_o thereon_o hang_v the_o plummet_n than_o put_v a_o pin_n in_o the_o other_o whole_a that_o be_v perpendicular_a to_o the_o horizontal_a line_n and_o just_a over_o the_o centre_n and_o hold_v up_o the_o dial_n in_o your_o right_a hand_n and_o make_v the_o string_n to_o play_v even_o by_o the_o superficies_n of_o the_o dial_n when_o you_o see_v the_o object_n right_o against_o both_o the_o pin_n then_o observe_v what_o stroke_n be_v cut_v by_o the_o thread_n on_o the_o line_n of_o quadrat_fw-la or_o shadow_n for_o that_o may_v be_v use_v so_o also_o for_o if_o you_o go_v backward_o or_o forward_o till_o you_o make_v the_o thread_n to_o fall_v on_o 1_o in_o the_o shadow_n or_o on_o 50_o in_o the_o quadrat_fw-la then_o be_v the_o height_n of_o the_o house_n steeple_n tree_n or_o the_o like_a equal_a to_o the_o distance_n between_o you_o and_o it_o add_v the_o height_n of_o your_o eye_n to_o it_o but_o if_o it_o have_v fall_v on_o 25_o of_o the_o quadrat_fw-la or_o 2_o on_o the_o shadow_n than_o the_o distance_n have_v be_v twice_o as_o much_o as_o the_o height_n if_o right_a shadow_n but_o for_o contrary_a shadow_n the_o contrary_a i_o shall_v say_v no_o more_o to_o this_o only_o give_v you_o a_o caution_n that_o if_o you_o look_v from_o the_o height_n of_o any_o place_n downward_o than_o you_o must_v put_v that_o pin_n next_o the_o centre_n to_o your_o eye_n and_o look_v downward_o to_o your_o object_n and_o then_o the_o side_n which_o before_o be_v right_a shadow_n will_v become_v contrary_a shadow_n and_o the_o contrary_n note_v one_o thing_n further_o that_o if_o your_o instrument_n be_v a_o sextance_n or_o a_o circle_n and_o you_o can_v have_v all_o the_o
