the_o hour_n of_o the_o night_n in_o any_o place_n of_o the_o north-latitude_n thus_o 18._o observe_v some_o star_n of_o the_o nocturnal_a at_o the_o meridian_n in_o the_o heaven_n and_o turn_v the_o same_o of_o the_o nocturnal_a to_o the_o line_n of_o 12._o so_o shall_v the_o the_o day_n of_o the_o month_n of_o the_o nocturnal_a stand_n at_o the_o hour_n of_o night_n of_o the_o quadrat_fw-la 19_o to_o get_v a_o accessible_a altitude_n first_o measure_v a_o distance_n from_o the_o base_a and_o observe_v the_o summitie_n through_o the_o sight_n and_o see_v on_o what_o part_n or_o division_n of_o the_o quadrat_fw-la the_o string_n fall_v if_o on_o 100_o then_o be_v the_o measure_a distance_n and_o altitude_n of_o the_o thing_n above_o your_o eye_n equal_a if_o on_o 50_o on_o the_o far_a side_n of_o the_o quadrat_fw-la or_o vmbra_fw-la recta_fw-la then_o be_v your_o distance_n double_a to_o the_o height_n if_o on_o 25_o on_o the_o same_o side_n then_o be_v your_o distance_n quadruple_a to_o the_o height_n for_o the_o proportion_n be_v as_o 100_o to_o the_o part_n cut_v by_o the_o string_n so_o be_v the_o measure_a distance_n to_o the_o height_n but_o if_o the_o string_n fall_v on_o 50_o on_o the_o near_a side_n of_o the_o quadrat_fw-la or_o vmbra_fw-la versa_fw-la then_o be_v your_o distance_n but_o half_a the_o height_n if_o on_o 25_o on_o the_o same_o side_n then_o be_v your_o distance_n but_o one_o quarter_n of_o the_o height_n above_o your_o eye_n for_o the_o proportion_n be_v as_o the_o part_n cut_v by_o the_o string_n to_o 100_o so_o be_v the_o distance_n measure_v to_o the_o height_n 20._o hence_o it_o follow_v that_o if_o the_o ground_n will_v permit_v to_o take_v a_o station_n at_o will_n then_o let_v 50_o foot_n yard_n etc._n etc._n be_v measure_v and_o after_o observation_n of_o the_o summitie_n take_v half_a the_o number_n of_o the_o part_n cut_v by_o the_o string_n on_o the_o far_a side_n for_o the_o height_n desire_v if_o 25_o be_v measure_v then_o take_v one_o quarter_n of_o the_o part_n cut_v for_o the_o altitude_n require_v this_o be_v without_o any_o arithmetical_a operation_n the_o reason_n thereof_o be_v see_v that_o it_o be_v as_o in_o the_o first_o as_o 100_o to_o the_o part_n cut_v so_o the_o distance_n to_o the_o height_n therefore_o by_o alternation_n of_o proportion_n as_o 100_o to_o the_o distance_n so_o the_o part_n cut_v to_o the_o height_n but_o see_v that_o the_o distance_n be_v ½_n or_o ¼_n of_o 100_o therefore_o also_o the_o height_n be_v ½_n or_o ¼_n of_o the_o part_n cut_v to_o get_v a_o inaccessible_a altitude_n 21._o if_o the_o height_n be_v inaccessible_a that_o be_v where_o you_o can_v measure_v to_o the_o base_a then_o must_v you_o take_v two_o station_n both_o in_o a_o right_a line_n with_o the_o base_a of_o the_o thing_n and_o at_o each_o station_n observe_v the_o summitie_n note_v the_o part_n cut_v both_o on_o the_o far_a side_n of_o the_o quadrat_fw-la and_o also_o measure_v the_o distance_n between_o the_o two_o station_n then_o must_v you_o divide_v 10000_o by_o each_o number_n of_o part_n cut_v at_o each_o station_n for_o the_o proportion_n be_v as_o the_o difference_n of_o the_o two_o quotient_n be_v to_o the_o distance_n between_o the_o station_n so_o be_v 100_o to_o the_o altitude_n require_v and_o to_o get_v the_o distance_n from_o the_o near_a station_n to_o the_o base_a of_o the_o thing_n the_o proportion_n be_v as_o the_o difference_n between_o the_o quotient_n to_o the_o distance_n between_o the_o station_n so_o the_o lesser_a quotient_n to_o the_o
