to_o those_o who_o be_v engage_v in_o great_a computation_n may_v easy_o commit_v a_o error_n which_o a_o instrument_n well_o make_v will_v soon_o discover_v i_o shall_v not_o describe_v the_o manner_n of_o make_v it_o that_o be_v sufficient_o do_v by_o many_o other_o mr._n blagrave_n in_o his_o mathematical_a jewel_n find_v fault_n that_o the_o meridian_n towards_o the_o noon-line_n be_v

may_v consider_v that_o the_o hour-space_n far_o from_o the_o meridian_n enlarge_v themselves_o where_o his_o grow_v narrow_a nay_o where_o they_o be_v broad_a the_o parallel_n in_o the_o mater_fw-la
