Ounces Drams Scruples Grains 9 8 3 1 12 The figures above each Sum are also help● to cast up Sums both in Addition and Substraction For in Addition they shew what you are to dote at or carry to the next row as every 20 Grains must be carried to the place of Scruples as one and the odd set down And in substraction they shew what you are to borrow if need be so that after you have learned to the Rule of Division you may understand all the Questions in this Book How to measure Land or any other thing that lieth flat as the figures following A true Square multiply one side into itself Multiply the length by the breadth Add the length of each end together and half of which multiply by the length Multiply the doted Line into one side Add the two short doted lines together and multiply it by half the longest Multiply half the doted line by any side if a Triangle Multiply half the doted line by the longest side Multiply the doted line by one third of the Compass If any of these be for measuring of Land or any Close may be measured into Triangles and is measured by the Pole of 16 ½ Feet divide the product by 160 and the Quotient shews the number of Acres To know how much Hay a Barn will hold by the Load Multiply the height to the Beam into the breadth in yards and that product by the Length the whole divide by 20 and the Quotient sheweth the Loads of Corn or Hay the Barn will hold to the Beam And for the Roof multiply half the depth into the breadth at Beam and that product by the length and work as before and add it to the other How to find how many square Inches is on the outside of any Globe or other round thing Multiply the thickness or Diameter by the Compass or Circumference and the product sheweth the number of Inches How to find how many solid Inches is in any Globe or Bullet Suppose the thickness or diameter be 21 multiply 21 by 21 and that product by 21 the which multiply by 11 and the product will be 101871 which being divided by 21 gives 4851 the solid Inches in the Globe A Globe of 10 Inches diameter what is the circumference A Globe of 31 3 7 Inches the Circumference what is the diameter If a Globe or Bullet be 5 Inches diameter weigh 16 l. how much shall one weigh that is 4 Inches diameter How to measure Tiling by the square of 10 Foot Multiply the length by the breadth ●n Feet of one side of the Roof and ●hat product divide by 100 and the Quotient shews how many squares of ●0 Foot is in one side the which ●ouble Price of Work Tiling at 3 s. the square Brick work 25 s. the Rod of 16 ½ feet Paving at 2 d. or 3 d. the yard of 9 Feet Rendring 2 d the yard 9 Foot 12 Foot square take 1000 of Tiles 20 Cubical yards to hold a Load of Hay 22 Bushels almost will lie in a square yard 150 or 160 Bricks will lay a yard at one Brick and an half thick in a Wall A Workman will lay 1000 in a day 4600 or 5000 Brick will make a Rod. The value of a single Fraction ½ is the half of any thing ⅔ is two third parts ¼ is one quarter ¾ is three quarters 1 is Numerator 2 is Denominator How to multiply a whole number and a Fraction by a whole number and a Fraction so that if you measure any thing and the length and breadth are Poles or Feet with part of a Pole or Foot Example To multiply 120¼ by 58½ Do thus First multiply the whole numbers together as 120 by 48 and to the Product add one quarter of 48 and the half of 120. Multiply ¼ by ½ is ⅛ Thus 1 time 1 is one 2 times 4 is 8. To Reduce a Fraction into its known parts As ⅚ of a shilling or 12 pence Multiply the Numerator 5 into the

parts of a shilling that is 12 pence and divide that product by the Numerator 6. Example How many square Quarters of a foot is in a solid foot of Timber The square of a ¼ of a Foot is three Inches multiplied in its self Divide 1728 by the Inches in a square Foot by 27 and the Quotient is the Answer Example And in an Inch also is 64 squa● quarterns of an Inch.

Choose two places to stand in to see the same as suppose 20 yards distant for which distance draw a Line on Paper and divide it into 20 parts then lay the edge of a Quadrant at one standing the Quadrant lying flat to point to the other standing and mark how many degrees the sight of the Tree may cut to make an Angle which mark at the end of the Line on the Paper do so at the other standing and bring it to the Paper Lastly draw both the Lines at length till they touch each other and that will shew the distance in yards to be measures by your first Line Note that if the Tree be far distant let your standings be the farther off each other And for want of a Quadrant the square corner of a Board may serve if it be exact square at one corner If you are upon the Land you may take the distance of a Ship at Sea by two standings as before But if you are upon a Ship Mast at Sea or upon a high Tower near the Sea then spie through the sights the Ship observing how many Degrees and Minutes makes the Angle which note upon Paper and let down into the Sea a Line and Plummet the which Line measure into yards and lay it down also on Paper by the Line of equal parts Note that the Angle at the water is a perfect square as one should always be Then draw your Lines to a point as before so that by this Rule the ingenious may find the distance of several Towns and Castles one from another and also their heights and breadths though you cannot come at them by reason of Water or an Enemy c. Note that if the Plummet cut one one quarter of your Quadrant on the right side in taking of sight then twice the distance from your standing to the bottom of the Tree is the height Or if it cut so much of the Left side then half the distance is the height Remember that the sight to the top of the Tree must be as a streight Line to the Ground it may reach 6 7 or 8 foot backward if you stand upright to take the sight How to make black Ink. Take Rain water two Quarts Galls bruised six ounces let them stand one week in the Sun then put in Gum Arabick and Coperas of each four ounces heat it over the fire and stir it with a stick often This Table is called multiplication Table which all have learned by heart that are skill'd in Arithmetick 1 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9   2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18     3 9 12 15 18 21 24 27       4 16 20 24 28 32 36         5 25 30 35 40 45           6 36 42 48 54             7 49 56 63               8 64 72                 9 81 How to read this Table Begin at the figure 2 in the second Line and 2 in the first and say 2 times 2 is four 2 times 3 is 6 c. Then begin at 3 in the third Line saying 3 times 3 is 9 and 3 times 4 is 12 3 times 5 is 15 and so to the end Multiply 20 by 5 Thus the Cipher in the 20 set down under the Line then 2 times 5 is 10 set it down so 5 times 20 is 100. Multiply 69 by 87 set it thus Work thus Say 7 times 9 is 63 set down 3 and carry in mind 6 then 7 times 6 is 42 and 6 I bear in mind is 48 set down 8 and bear in mind 4 which 4 set down having no further to carry it Then say 8 times

and 360 of these degrees is round the Earth or Globe as is supposed This North Pole is elevated above our dwelling about 52 degrees 30 Minutes Therefore a man may travel until the South Pole seem to be over his head So being these two Stars are as fixed they are of great help to those that go over the Sea together with the help of a needle placed in the Sea-man's Compass which needle turning upon a point will not be still until it points at one end to the Iron-Mines in the North because of its being touched by a Load-stone that draws always towards the North and the place to which they are travelling to if it bears South or S.S.W. the Compass will shew The height of the Pole in degrees and Minutes are taken by a Quadrant like this Figure following on which Lines may be drawn to find the hour of the day I have only placed the 12 hours ' and by this Table following you may place the rest A Table for the Latitude of 52 Degrees for the Quadrant Hours D.
