A03576	The vse of both the globes, celestiall, and terrestriall most plainely deliuered in forme of a dialogue. Containing most pleasant, and profitable conclusions for the mariner, and generally for all those, that are addicted to these kinde of mathematicall instrumentes. VVritten by T.

the_o centre_n of_o the_o globe_n and_o in_o regard_n that_o the_o globe_n which_o we_o use_v represent_v some_o principal_a part_n of_o the_o world_n therefore_o we_o call_v these_o foresay_a pole_n the_o pole_n of_o the_o world_n and_o speak_v either_o simple_o of_o the_o pole_n or_o of_o the_o pole_n of_o the_o world_n we_o have_v relation_n only_o to_o those_o point_n upon_o which_o the_o

the_o second_o objection_n which_o you_o make_v you_o must_v understand_v this_o that_o the_o sight_n be_v not_o a_o immediate_a judge_n of_o a_o distance_n assign_v but_o gather_v it_o by_o mean_n that_o be_v by_o the_o interposition_n of_o a_o certain_a number_n of_o man_n or_o house_n or_o tree_n or_o hill_n or_o some_o other_o such_o like_a thing_n betwixt_o the_o eye_n and_o the_o thing_n see_v which_o thing_n interpose_v if_o they_o be_v many_o we_o affirm_v the_o thing_n see_v to_o be_v far_o off_o because_o reason_n tell_v we_o that_o they_o can_v be_v contain_v in_o a_o small_a space_n contrariwise_o if_o they_o be_v few_o we_o judge_v the_o distance_n to_o be_v the_o lesser_a hereupon_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o our_o eye_n run_v along_o by_o the_o ground_n and_o behold_v so_o many_o house_n church_n hill_n and_o tree_n between_o we_o and_o the_o heaven_n we_o judge_v and_o affirm_v it_o to_o be_v far_o from_o we_o but_o for_o somuch_o as_o in_o look_v up_o

there_o abouts_o distant_a from_o the_o earth_n therefore_o we_o think_v that_o part_n of_o heaven_n to_o be_v near_o so_o that_o the_o argument_n take_v from_o the_o equal_a apparent_a magnitude_n of_o the_o star_n can_v be_v but_o true_a and_o infer_v the_o roundenesse_n of_o the_o heaven_n the._n 5._o argument_n be_v set_v from_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o star_n which_o be_v circular_a 6._o
