from_o the_o meridian_n and_o in_o the_o end_n there_o be_v a_o demonstration_n thereof_o furthermore_o because_o there_o be_v some_o that_o desire_v to_o know_v the_o alteration_n of_o a_o point_n to_o this_o end_n that_o in_o run_v of_o one_o point_n they_o may_v raise_v or_o lay_v a_o degree_n soon_o in_o one_o than_o in_o a_o other_o as_o in_o the_o sail_v south_n or_o north_n equinoctial_a keep_v one_o meridian_n they_o raise_v or_o lay_v the_o pole._n as_o this_o for_o your_o example_n in_o go_v to_o the_o north_n you_o do_v raise_v the_o pole_n and_o lay_v the_o equinoctial_a contrariwise_o go_v towards_o the_o south_n you_o lie_v the_o pole_n and_o raise_v the_o equinoctial_a but_o in_o sail_v or_o go_v east_n or_o west_n you_o do_v neither_o alter_v your_o pole_n nor_o parallel_n but_o only_o your_o meridian_n whereas_o in_o sail_v of_o any_o other_o point_n you_o do_v alter_v both_o your_o pole_n and_o parallel_n and_o also_o your_o meridian_n wherefore_o i_o will_v open_v unto_o you_o in_o sail_v upon_o one_o of_o the_o quarter_n of_o the_o compass_n what_o every_o point_n do_v raise_v or_o lay_v one_o degree_n in_o how_o far_o sail_v and_o how_o many_o mile_n you_o be_v depart_v from_o the_o place_n you_o depart_v from_o and_o what_o space_n you_o be_v depart_v from_o your_o meridian_n league_n but_o here_o be_v one_o thing_n to_o be_v note_v as_o i_o suppose_v in_o the_o most_o part_n of_o card_n they_o allow_v for_o every_o degree_n but_o .17_o league_n and_o a_o half_a your_o card_n be_v most_o common_o make_v in_o lisbon_n in_o portugal_n in_o spain_n or_o else_o in_o france_n but_o as_o i_o take_v it_o we_o in_o england_n shall_v allow_v .60_o mile_n to_o one_o degree_n that_o be_v after_o .3_o mile_n to_o one_o of_o our_o english_a league_n wherefore_o .20_o of_o our_o english_a league_n shall_v answer_v to_o one_o degree_n for_o that_o .3_o of_o our_o mile_n will_v not_o make_v one_o of_o their_o league_n and_o because_o they_o make_v their_o account_n by_o their_o league_n in_o the_o card_n and_o not_o by_o we_o therefore_o i_o will_v show_v you_o by_o our_o english_a mile_n a_o english_a mile_n contain_v .1000_o pase_n foot_n and_o every_o pace_n .5_o foot_n and_o every_o foot_n .12_o ynche_n now_o some_o think_v that_o a_o pace_n can_v not_o be_v .5_o foot_n but_o a_o pace_n geometrical_a be_v .2_o reasonable_a step_n for_o it_o can_v not_o be_v a_o pace_n until_o the_o hinder_a foot_n be_v remove_v forward_o and_o those_o 2._o step_n will_v contain_v .5_o foot_n and_o so_o may_v any_o man_n endure_v to_o go_v at_o pleasure_n but_o now_o to_o our_o purpose_n for_o the_o sail_v of_o one_o quarter_n of_o the_o compass_n this_o be_v to_o be_v note_v first_o that_o in_o sail_v direct_o south_n or_o north_n you_o do_v raise_v or_o lay_v the_o pole_n a_o degree_n in_o 60._o mile_n go_v league_n in_o the_o alter_n of_o one_o point_n from_o the_o south_n or_o north_n in_o .61_o mile_n and_o you_o be_v

depart_v from_o your_o meridian_n .25_o mile_n in_o alter_v of_o the_o .3_o point_n you_o do_v raise_v or_o lay_v one_o degree_n in_o sail_v .72_o mile_n and_o a_o .9_o part_v and_o be_v depart_v from_o your_o meridian_n .40_o mile_n compass_n moreover_o in_o alter_v of_o the_o 4._o point_n you_o do_v raise_v or_o lay_v a_o degree_n in_o the_o go_n of_o .85_o mile_n &_o depart_v from_o your_o meridian_n .60_o mile_n in_o alter_v of_o the_o .5_o point_n or_o wind_n you_o raise_v a_o degree_n in_o the_o sail_v of_o .108_o mile_n and_o depart_v from_o your_o meridian_n .90_o mile_n in_o sail_v by_o the_o 6._o point_n you_o raise_v or_o lay_v one_o degree_n in_o .157_o mile_n and_o depart_v from_o your_o meridian_n line_n 145._o mile_n last_o of_o all_o in_o sail_v by_o the_o .7_o point_n or_o wind_n you_o do_v raise_v a_o degree_n in_o go_v of_o .308_o mile_n and_o depart_v from_o your_o meridian_n line_n .302_o mile_n and_o after_o this_o manner_n you_o may_v consider_v of_o the_o other_o three_o quarter_n of_o the_o compass_n but_o if_o you_o require_v to_o know_v the_o raise_n or_o lay_v of_o a_o degree_n by_o the_o league_n of_o the_o card_n that_o be_v at_o .17_o
