and_o obedient_a subject_n and_o servant_n robert_n theaker_n to_o the_o reader_n have_v for_o many_o year_n take_v diligent_a notice_n of_o the_o diurnal_a motion_n of_o the_o heaven_n and_o how_o

do_v at_o last_o after_o many_o alteration_n and_o examination_n complete_a this_o instrument_n now_o call_v a_o light_n to_o the_o longitude_n which_o do_v in_o a_o plain_a and_o facile_a way_n speedy_o answer_v all_o astronomical_a proposition_n concern_v the_o sun_n moon_n and_o star_n only_o by_o turn_v the_o upper_a plain_n represent_v the_o heaven_n or_o terrestrial_a globe_n without_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o spherical_a triangle_n which_o many_o man_n do_v never_o attain_v to_o also_o by_o frequent_a practice_n and_o a_o little_a instruction_n in_o use_v this_o instrument_n all_o the_o constellation_n and_o fix_a star_n in_o the_o heaven_n be_v ready_o find_v out_o and_o know_v in_o all_o place_n at_o any_o hour_n of_o the_o night_n very_o helpful_a to_o practical_a seaman_n in_o the_o art_n of_o navigation_n and_o be_v join_v with_o the_o true_a nature_n and_o way_n of_o the_o turn_v this_o instrument_n i_o suppose_v they_o will_v speedy_o find_v at_o what_o particular_a meridian_n they_o be_v at_o which_o be_v indeed_o true_a astronomical_a geographical_a and_o hydrographical_a longitude_n and_o be_v not_o the_o measure_n of_o distance_n

endeavour_n i_o doubt_v not_o but_o will_v daily_o add_v more_o and_o more_o light_a to_o this_o matter_n until_o at_o last_o practical_a seaman_n gain_v the_o honour_n and_o bring_v home_o their_o undeniable_a proof-piece_n and_o put_v a_o end_n to_o all_o objection_n and_o so_o for_o present_a i_o leave_v all_o my_o endeavour_n to_o your_o favourable_a construction_n hope_v they_o will_v
