A74866	The geometrical sea-man: or, the art of navigation performed by geometry. Shewing how all the three kinds of sayling, viz. by the plain chart, by Mercators chart, by a great circle. may be easily and exactly performed by a plain ruler and a pair of compasses, without arithmeticall calculation. / By Henry Phillippes.

the_o latitude_n and_o their_o ea_n or_o westing_n without_o draw_v of_o the_o rumbe_n line_n from_o point_n to_o point_n first_o for_o the_o increase_n of_o your_o scale_n which_o be_v the_o chief_a ground_n whereon_o the_o certainty_n of_o your_o reckon_n will_v depend_v in_o the_o figure_n follow_v which_o be_v the_o same_o with_o the_o plain_a chart_n before_o scale_n the_o way_n to_o keep_v a_o perfect_a account_n be_v to_o work_v by_o a_o very_a large_a scale_n let_v each_o side_n of_o the_o square_n be_v suppose_v to_o contain_v but_o one_o degree_n of_o longitude_n or_o latitude_n whereas_o before_o we_o suppose_v it_o to_o contain_v 10_o degree_n so_o shall_v each_o degree_n by_o this_o mean_n be_v divide_v into_o 100_o very_a sensible_a part_n and_o be_v 10_o time_n great_a than_o the_o scale_n of_o your_o chart_n by_o which_o mean_v you_o shall_v keep_v your_o account_n as_o exact_o as_o need_v be_v require_v then_o it_o will_v be_v necessary_a if_o you_o use_v this_o as_o a_o instrument_n to_o draw_v line_n through_o each_o of_o these_o 100_o part_n cross_v one_o another_o as_o those_o ten_o line_n do_v but_o for_o the_o better_a distinction_n you_o may_v make_v every_o ten_o line_n big_a than_o the_o rest_n and_o every_o five_o line_n you_o may_v prick_v out_o then_o make_v the_o corner_n at_o a_o the_o centre_n draw_v the_o arch_n of_o the_o quadrant_a b_o p_o 1_o 2_o 3_o 4_o 5_o 6_o 7_o d_o which_o you_o may_v divide_v either_o into_o 90_o degree_n or_o else_o into_o the_o 8_o rumbe_n and_o their_o quarter_n and_o it_o will_v be_v good_a to_o number_v they_o both_o way_n from_z b_o and_z d._n last_o you_o must_v provide_v you_o a_o thin_a ruler_n or_o index_n which_o must_v be_v divide_v as_o the_o side_n of_o the_o quadrat_fw-la be_v into_o 100_o equal_a part_n you_o may_v make_v this_o index_n of_o a_o piece_n of_o thin_a paper_n and_o oil_n it_o or_o it_o will_v be_v better_o if_o you_o get_v a_o piecc_fw-la of_o fine_a clear_a horn_n and_o make_v a_o scale_n of_o equal_a part_n thereon_o equal_a to_o the_o side_n of_o the_o quadrat_fw-la and_o so_o fasten_v it_o to_o the_o centre_n a_o you_o may_v turn_v it_o to_o any_o rumbe_n in_o the_o arch_n and_o very_o plain_o see_v all_o the_o line_n of_o the_o instrument_n through_o it_o the_o use_n of_o this_o instrument_n may_v be_v show_v in_o many_o proposition_n but_o i_o shall_v only_o show_v you_o how_o to_o use_v it_o in_o two_o very_a necessary_a proposition_n by_o the_o one_o of_o which_o you_o may_v keep_v your_o dead_a reckon_n by_o the_o other_o your_o true_a reckon_n by_o observation_n to_o perform_v this_o or_o any_o such_o like_a question_n you_o must_v first_o consider_v which_o way_n your_o course_n be_v in_o general_a and_o lay_v the_o quadrat_fw-la so_o that_o the_o side_n a_o b_o or_o a_o d_o instrument_n how_o to_o work_v the_o proposition_n upon_o the_o instrument_n the_o one_o of_o they_o may_v represent_v the_o meridian_n and_o the_o other_o the_o line_n of_o east_n or_o west_n as_o in_o this_o example_n the_o side_n a_o b_o must_v represent_v the_o meridian_n and_o the_o side_n a_o d_o the_o line_n of_o east_n then_o lay_v your_o horn_n index_n to_o the_o rumbe_n in_o the_o arch_n and_o find_v out_o the_o distance_n you_o have_v sail_v upon_o the_o scale_n of_o your_o index_n now_o mark_v very_o well_o the_o point_n where_o your_o distance_n upon_o the_o scale_n end_v and_o what_o line_n of_o the_o quadrat_fw-la meet_v in_o this_o very_a point_n and_o if_o by_o your_o eye_n you_o trace_v these_o line_n to_o the_o side_n of_o the_o quadrat_fw-la the_o figure_n there_o will_v show_v you_o the_o northing_n or_o sothe_v ea_v or_o westing_n as_o the_o question_n require_v as_o in_o this_o example_n because_o your_o course_n in_o general_n be_v north-easter_o let_v the_o side_n a_o b_o represent_v the_o north_n meridian_n line_n so_o the_o side_n a_o d_o at_o the_o bottom_n or_o b_o c_o at_o the_o top_n will_v represent_v the_o line_n of_o easterly_a longitude_n or_o distance_n then_o because_o your_o course_n be_v n_n by_o e_z which_o be_v the_o first_o rumbe_n from_o the_o north_n meridian_n eastward_o lay_v your_o horn_n index_n upon_o the_o first_o rumbe_n from_o the_o line_n a_o b_o which_o be_v the_o line_n a_o p._n then_o count_v your_o distance_n which_o be_v one_o degree_n or_o 100_o part_n upon_o your_o index_n and_o mark_v where_o this_o number_n end_v which_o be_v in_o the_o point_n p_o where_o the_o line_n a_o p_o cross_v the_o arch_n b_o p._n this_o be_v the_o exact_a point_n where_o you_o be_v now_o if_o you_o trace_v the_o line_n p_o b_o that_o run_n through_o this_o point_n to_o the_o meridian_n line_n you_o shall_v there_o find_v that_o you_o be_v to_o the_o northward_o of_o the_o place_n a_o 98_o part_n of_o a_o degree_n divide_v into_o 100_o part_n likewise_o if_o you_o trace_v the_o line_n that_o run_v through_o this_o point_n p_o to_o the_o bottom_n or_o top_n of_o the_o quadrat_fw-la there_o you_o shall_v find_v that_o you_o have_v alter_v your_o longitude_n 19_o ●●●_o part_n and_o a_o half_a
