A52487	The seaman's companion being a plain guide to the understanding of arithmetick, geometry, trigonometry, navigation, and astronomy. Applied chiefly to navigation: and furnished with a table of meridional parts, to every third minute: with excellent and easie ways of keeping a reckoning at sea, never in print before. Also, a catalogue of the longitude and latitude of the principal places in the world with other useful things. The third edition corrected and amended. By Matthew Norwood, mariner.

such_o degree_n as_o in_o that_o parallel_n 360_o make_v the_o circumference_n but_o they_o which_o sail_n by_o plano_n measure_v the_o sea_n which_o be_v round_o as_o though_o it_o be_v a_o flat_a or_o plain_a now_o it_o stand_v to_o reason_n that_o there_o must_v be_v great_a difference_n as_o thus_o all_o north_n and_o south_n course_v which_o we_o call_v meridian_n intersect_v in_o the_o pole_n now_o suppose_v there_o be_v two_o ship_n under_o the_o aequinoctial_a 5_o degree_n or_o 100_o league_n asunder_o and_o these_o ship_n sail_v both_o north_n they_o will_v meet_v in_o the_o north_n pole_n of_o the_o world_n but_o by_o plane_n they_o count_v they_o as_o far_o off_o there_o as_o they_o be_v at_o first_o for_o all_o north_n and_o south_n line_n be_v parallel_v one_o to_o another_o as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o the_o work_n all_o along_o illustration_n all_o meridian_n lines_n as_o i_o say_v before_o cut_v through_o the_o pole_n of_o the_o world_n and_o all_o parallel_n line_n go_v round_o about_o the_o pole_n continue_v the_o same_o distance_n from_o they_o the_o aequinoctial_a be_v one_o of_o these_o parallel_n line_n draw_v equal_o distant_a from_o the_o pole_n and_o so_o be_v upon_o the_o body_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o there_o a_o degree_n of_o longitude_n be_v 60_o mile_n and_o 360_o time_n 60_o mile_n be_v the_o circumference_n of_o the_o earth_n which_o be_v 360_o degree_n but_o now_o if_o there_o be_v a_o draw_a parallel_n 50_o degree_n near_o to_o one_o of_o the_o pole_n our_o own_o reason_n will_v give_v that_o that_o circle_n will_v not_o contain_v so_o many_o mile_n round_o as_o the_o other_o do_v because_o it_o must_v be_v less_o yet_o he_o that_o sail_v by_o plano_n count_v that_o it_o do_v and_o though_o he_o have_v wind_n that_o carry_v he_o no_o better_o than_o due_a north_n from_o the_o aequinoctial_a to_o the_o parallel_n or_o latitude_n of_o 50_o degree_n he_o count_v he_o have_v as_o many_o league_n from_o the_o meridian_n of_o the_o place_n he_o be_v bind_v to_o as_o he_o have_v when_o he_o be_v under_o the_o aequinoctial_a now_o tell_v i_o how_o it_o be_v possible_a if_o meridian_n intersect_n in_o the_o pole_n as_o they_o do_v that_o these_o meridian_n shall_v be_v as_o far_o asunder_o upon_o a_o parallel_n of_o 50_o degree_n near_o than_o pole_n as_o they_o be_v under_o the_o aequinoctial_a i_o hope_v you_o understand_v i_o it_o be_v the_o work_n of_o m●rcator_n to_o show_v therefore_o the_o quantity_n of_o a_o degree_n of_o longitude_n in_o every_o latitude_n for_o in_o these_o parallel_n there_o be_v 3●0_n degree_n in_o the_o circumference_n but_o these_o degree_n can_v contain_v so_o many_o mile_n as_o they_o do_v near_o the_o aequator_fw-la it_o show_v how_o you_o may_v sail_v upon_o any_o course_n from_o one_o latitude_n to_o another_o and_o reckon_v your_o longitude_n according_a to_o the_o truth_n of_o it_o in_o degree_n and_o minute_n so_o that_o have_v two_o thing_n give_v beside_o the_o right_a angle_n you_o may_v find_v your_o desire_n at_o sea_n according_a to_o mercator_n direction_n which_o be_v the_o sure_a way_n of_o sail_v that_o i_o know_v except_o sail_v by_o the_o arch_n of_o a_o great_a circle_n and_o that_o and_o this_o will_v agree_v in_o degree_n of_o longitude_n but_o that_o show_v the_o near_a way_n to_o sail_v from_o place_n to_o place_n which_o be_v all_o that_o it_o differ_v from_o this_o they_o be_v both_o true_a this_o show_v a_o general_a way_n of_o sail_v from_o place_n to_o place_n that_o a_o particular_a way_n of_o sail_v the_o near_a way_n from_o place_n to_o place_n it_o be_v but_o seldom_o use_v because_o it_o be_v not_o very_o common_o know_v but_o it_o be_v a_o excellent_a thing_n i_o think_v to_o have_v touch_v it_o but_o i_o consider_v that_o my_o father_n have_v
