at_o sea_n be_v make_v by_o very_o small_a instrument_n as_o namely_o the_o sail_a compass_n astrolabe_n and_o such_o like_a so_o that_o the_o variation_n and_o elevation_n and_o such_o like_a find_v by_o such_o observation_n be_v seldom_o true_a and_o that_o therefore_o true_a longitude_n be_v seldom_o to_o be_v find_v yet_o nevertheless_o howsoever_o it_o fall_v out_o it_o be_v certain_a 23_o that_o by_o these_o several_a way_n assist_v each_o other_o in_o the_o hand_n of_o a_o navigator_n the_o longitude_n may_v be_v find_v sufficient_o true_a for_o the_o precise_a practice_n of_o

the_o find_v out_o of_o which_o pole_n i_o have_v be_v enforce_v to_o use_v the_o observation_n of_o other_o man_n wherein_o if_o they_o have_v fail_v and_o i_o myself_o also_o have_v do_v the_o
