i_o say_v that_o i_o be_o the_o first_o that_o have_v bring_v the_o art_n of_o navigation_n into_o a_o brief_a compendiousness_n geve_v infayleable_a principle_n navigation_n and_o evident_a

make_n and_o use_v of_o instrument_n to_o know_v and_o take_v the_o altitude_n of_o the_o sun_n to_o know_v the_o tide_n or_o ebbing_n and_o flow_v of_o the_o sea_n how_o to_o order_v their_o card_n and_o compass_n for_o navigation_n geve_v they_o instruction_n of_o the_o course_n of_o the_o sun_n and_o motion_n of_o the_o moon_n teach_v they_o furthermore_o the_o make_n of_o dyalle_n both_o for_o the_o day_n and_o for_o the_o night_n so_o certain_a that_o in_o all_o place_n they_o shall_v show_v the_o true_a hour_n without_o default_n and_o have_v likewise_o declare_v the_o secret_a
