bold_a to_o say_v that_o this_o science_n be_v not_o necessary_a in_o our_o daily_a conversation_n only_o for_o he_o that_o understand_v it_o have_v no_o less_o advantage_n towards_o the_o read_n of_o any_o history_n and_o he_o can_v but_o acknowledge_v that_o his_o skill_n in_o map_n give_v a_o extraordinary_a light_n to_o what_o he_o read_v beside_o no_o one_o will_v deny_v but_o that_o it_o be_v also_o very_o delightful_a to_o travel_v round_o the_o earth_n and_o visit_v each_o part_n thereof_o without_o danger_n and_o without_o quit_v their_o native_a country_n friend_n and_o relation_n and_o see_v that_o god_n have_v allot_v the_o earth_n and_o all_o that_o be_v in_o it_o to_o be_v under_o the_o jurisdiction_n of_o man_n it_o seem_v as_o if_o they_o who_o be_v whole_o ignorant_a of_o the_o form_n and_o dimension_n of_o this_o low_a world_n and_o of_o the_o situation_n extent_n or_o division_n of_o its_o part_n do_v in_o some_o sort_n slight_a and_o despise_v the_o creation_n it_o be_v true_a there_o be_v other_o science_n not_o a_o little_a advantageous_a to_o he_o who_o will_v thorough_o understand_v a_o history_n as_o chronology_n and_o genealogy_n yet_o geography_n be_v place_v before_o these_o of_o course_n for_o the_o question_n be_v general_o ask_v first_o where_o and_o afterward_o when_o and_o by_o who_o this_o or_o that_o thing_n be_v do_v moreover_o god_n have_v create_v the_o earth_n before_o he_o make_v man_n it_o will_v seem_v something_o absurd_a to_o be_v well_o verse_v in_o the_o state_n of_o humane_a affair_n and_o altogether_o ignorant_a of_o the_o country_n wherein_o they_o be_v act_v know_v that_o a_o good_a method_n ought_v chief_o to_o be_v observe_v in_o this_o as_o well_o as_o in_o other_o science_n i_o have_v therefore_o imitate_v that_o of_o mounseur_fw-fr de_fw-fr launay_n a_o very_a learned_a man_n in_o his_o introduction_n to_o geography_n print_v two_o or_o three_o year_n ago_o in_o france_n from_o whence_o i_o translate_v what_o make_v most_o for_o my_o purpose_n but_o from_o the_o begin_n to_o the_o end_n of_o this_o small_a treatise_n i_o have_v endeavour_v to_o observe_v that_o brevity_n which_o i_o first_o

brevitas_fw-la memoriae_fw-la amica_fw-la nevertheless_o i_o will_v at_o the_o same_o time_n affirm_v without_o any_o thing_n of_o vanity_n that_o there_o be_v no_o geography_n now_o extant_a in_o english_a except_o one_o of_o two_o of_o a_o large_a bulk_n and_o large_a price_n that_o treat_v so_o full_o as_o this_o of_o all_o the_o part_n of_o the_o know_a earth_n with_o their_o subdivision_n i_o confess_v i_o have_v insert_v very_o little_a of_o the_o historical_a part_n that_o it_o may_v be_v the_o more_o compendious_a and_o to_o make_v the_o more_o room_n for_o what_o belong_v pure_o to_o geography_n which_o induce_v i_o to_o hope_v that_o the_o reader_n will_v here_o find_v magnum_n in_o parvo_fw-la to_o conclude_v i_o have_v take_v all_o the_o care_n imaginable_a to_o render_v

other_o by_o which_o confusion_n the_o reader_n be_v not_o seldom_o discourage_v to_o proceed_v in_o what_o he_o begin_v perhaps_o with_o no_o small_a delight_n concern_v the_o use_n of_o the_o
