A15795 Horologiographia nocturna. Or Lunar horologiographie Set forth and demonstrated (after a twofold manner) in the horizontall plane onely. Vpon which (and all other by the same reason) may in a manner, as plainely and speedily bee discerned the times of the night by the gnomonicall shadow, caused by the moone, as the times of the day upon any by the sun: serving as well in the day time for the sunne. By Iohn Wyberd. Together with an addition of certaine new and briefe rules for the exact and most speedy mensuration of circles and spheres, and also cylinders, both in solid and liquid measure, by certaine plaine scales onely, not heretofore published, but now set forth for the benefit of all those that have occasion to make use of such things. Wybard, John. 1639 (1639) STC 26056; ESTC S120439 9,971 23

thereof_o be_v as_o i_o show_v before_o because_o the_o moon_n do_v not_o always_o observe_v the_o same_o time_n with_o the_o sun_n in_o her_o rise_n sothe_v and_o set_v these_o several_a dial_n or_o

the_o same_o reason_n and_o rule_v and_o therefore_o we_o have_v here_o entitle_v it_o lunar_a horologiographie_n that_o be_v the_o description_n of_o dial_n for_o the_o moon_n and_o most_o ready_o upon_o the_o equinoctial_a plane_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o equality_n of_o the_o horariall_a angle_n and_o in_o the_o direct_a meridian_n and_o polar_a plane_n where_o the_o solar_a houre-line_n be_v

of_o which_o the_o equinoctial_a line_n of_o the_o plane_n may_v very_o fit_o be_v one_o which_o may_v if_o you_o please_v serve_v for_o the_o fifteen_o day_n of_o the_o moon_n and_o so_o will_v serve_v continual_o for_o the_o sun_n by_o the_o reason_n aforesaid_a so_o the_o seven_o parallel_n fall_v under_o the_o say_a line_n may_v then_o fit_o serve_v for_o the_o seven_o day_n next_o enfue_v the_o day_n of_o her_o change_n and_o full_a and_o the_o seven_o parallel_n above_o the_o say_a line_n for_o the_o seven_o day_n next_o before_o the_o full_a and_o the_o change_n next_o

day_n for_o you_o may_v begin_v with_o what_o parallel_n you_o will_v then_o draw_v the_o common_a houre-line_n of_o these_o plane_n and_o divide_v each_o hour●_n into_o five_o part_n as_o before_o
