to_o see_v or_o behold_v that_o work_n shall_v be_v set_v or_o place_v in_o the_o fit_a place_n thereabouts_o as_o if_o it_o be_v in_o a_o hall_n or_o a_o chamber_n than_o the_o distance_n shall_v

if_o in_o such_o a_o case_n the_o street_n be_v very_o narrow_a than_o it_o be_v good_a to_o imagine_v a_o broad_a distance_n lest_o the_o shorten_n fall_v out_o to_o be_v over-tedious_a or_o

of_o work_n of_o five_o or_o six_o foot_n high_a from_o the_o ground_n whereon_o you_o stand_v than_o it_o be_v requisite_a that_o the_o horizon_n shall_v stand_v even_o with_o your_o eye_n as_o i_o
