A48262 Mathematicall recreations. Or, A collection of many problemes, extracted out of the ancient and modern philosophers as secrets and experiments in arithmetick, geometry, cosmographie, horologiographie, astronomie, navigation, musick, opticks, architecture, statick, mechanicks, chemistry, water-works, fire-works, &c. Not vulgarly manifest till now. Written first in Greeke and Latin, lately compi'ld in French, by Henry Van Etten, and now in English, with the examinations and augmentations of divers modern mathematicians whereunto is added the description and use of the generall horologicall ring: and the double horizontall diall. Invented and written by William Oughtred.; Récréation mathématique. English. Oughtred, William, 1575-1660. aut 1653 (1653) Wing L1790; ESTC R217635 140,825 339

that_o it_o be_v say_v that_o a_o vessel_n hold_v more_o water_n be_v place_v at_o the_o foot_n of_o a_o mountain_n than_o stand_v upon_o the_o top_n of_o it_o this_o be_v a_o thing_n most_o certain_a because_o that_o water_n and_o all_o other_o liquor_n dispose_v itself_o sphericaliy_v about_o the_o centre_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o by_o how_o much_o the_o vessel_n be_v near_a the_o centre_n by_o

therefore_o one_o may_v conclude_v that_o one_o and_o the_o same_o vessel_n will_v always_o hold_v more_o by_o how_o much_o it_o be_v near_o the_o centre_n of_o the_o earth_n second_o if_o a_o
