A16518	A booke called the treasure for traueilers deuided into fiue bookes or partes, contayning very necessary matters, for all sortes of trauailers, eyther by sea or by lande, written by William Bourne.	Bourne, William, d. 1583.	1578 (1578)	STC 3432; ESTC S104686	168,398	248

found a length and a breadth of anye peece of ground whose contentes in Acres you doo desire for to know you shall do it by Arithmetike as thus You shal multiply the length with the breadth then that number that commeth of that multiplication you shall deuide by .160 and that shall shewe vnto you the true numbers of Acres then if there bee any halfe roddes or quarters of roodes if that they be in breadth you shal adde then to the length and if that they be in length you shall account them in the breadth and so foorth Nowe I doo knowe that euery man hath not Arithmetike therefore you shall make your account by this meanes for to knowe the true contentes of the measure of any peece of Lande when you doo know the length and the bredth thereof as thus by the account of money euery marke for to conteyne one Acre as thus by the account of money euery noble of money to conteyne halfe an Acre and euery 3. shillinges and 4. pence to conteyne a roode or a quarter of an Acre and euerye groate or 4. pence to conteyne a dayes worke and euery penny to conteyne a pearche or as some terme it a roode and for to cast the contentes of Land doo this as by ensample of a peece of Land that is 30. pearches long and 24. pearches broade the 24. pence is 2. shillinges then beyng .30 roodes long that is 2. tymes .30 shillinges that maketh in money 3. pounde and 3. pounde is .4 marke and a noble so that the peece of Lande that is .30 roodes long and 24. broade doth conteyne 4. Acres and a halfe Yet furthermore for your better vnderstanding where there is half pearches and quarter of pearches both in the length and in the bredth then you shall doo thus by a peece of Lande that is 53. roodes long and a halfe and of bredth 42. and a quarter then 42. pence maketh 3. shillinges and 6. pence laye downe 3. tymes 53. shillinges and that will be .7 pounde and .19 shillinges and then ther is 6. pence more in the bredth and 53. halfe shillings maketh 26. shillinges and 6. pence then laye that to the other summe and then it maketh 9. pounde 5. shillings and 6. pence then there is in the length halfe a roode more therefore you must account it in the bredth and 42. halfe pence maketh 21. pence Then laye that to the sūme then there is in the same bredth a quarter of a roode more and that you must recken in the length and 53. farthinges maketh 13. pence farthing then laye the same to the rest and it wyll make in money 9. pounde 8. shillinges and 4. pence ob and that aunsweres to in measure .14 Acres and 5. dares worke and about halfe a pearche for that you may knowe that .9 pounde is 13. markes and a noble and there is 8. shillinges that is more then a noble by 4. grotes Then put that noble to the other noble then that maketh 14. markes then the 4. grotes put to the other 4. pence maketh 5. grotes and so that peece of lande which is 53. roodes long and a halfe and 42. roodes broade and a quarter shal be in measure 14. Acres 5. dayes worke neere half a pearch And by this account of money you may know the contentes of anye peece of lande better then you may knowe by any maner of table or tables and this serueth both for the learned and the vnlearned and is generally called the husbandmans rule for that he may as soone learne this or sooner then he shall vnderstande the tables of measures and that serueth but for a quantitie of measure and thys serueth generally for all manner of measures be it neuer so bygge or smal being sure for to cast the money right The seconde Chapter sheweth how to measure board and Glasse and to cast the contentes therof with other necesary thinges belonging therunto NOw furthermore in lyke manner for the measuring of boord or Glasse or any such other lyke for that it is sufficientlye declared in tables in Maister Digges his Tictonicon yet notwithstandinge thus you may know the contentes without any tables as thus Looke at what length your boorde is multiplye the number of feete into ynches 12. ynches to the foote then that beinge doone multyplye the breadth with the length that is to saye the number of ynches of the length with the number of ynches of the bredth deuide that number by 144. and that shall shew vnto you the number of feete then if that there remayne any thinge euery 72. ynches maketh halfe a foote and then euery 36. shall make ¼ parte of a foote and for that euery man hath not Arethmetick for to cast it by yet this is a ready way that many Carpenters doe vse and is exact ynouth as thus If that the Borde be more then a foote brode then they doo looke how many foote long the Borde is then ●hey account that that there is so many foote of Borde as the length of the borde is and then for the odde ynches and partes they mete in the bredthe how much it is and then with the rule as often times as there is foote long in the Borde they doe measure or set it downe and then they do measure how many foote longe it commeth vnto and then they doe say that it is so many foote of borde more then the length of the borde is and that is true without any fayle as for ensample thus by a borde of 10. foote longe and 14. ynches and a halfe broade Nowe for that the Borde is 10. foote longe then at twelue ynches broade there is 10. foote of borde and then there is two ynches and an halfe more in the breadth and for that with the ynche rule that is layde downe 10. times for that the borde is 10. foote longe and that beinge measured howe long it reacheth it wyll be 25. ynches longe that is .2 foote and 1. ynche thē that 2. foote put vnto the 10. foote it maketh .12 foot so that you may conclude that a borde of 10. foote longe and .14 ynches and ½ brode that there is 12. foote and 1.12 parte of a foote of a borde without any fayle and thus you may doe howe brode or narrow so euer that any borde or Planck is And furthermore at one ynche brode then 12. foote long maketh a foote of borde at 2. ynches brode 6. foote long to a foote at 3. ynches broade 4. foote longe to a foote at 4. ynches brode 3. foote long to a foote then at 5. ynches brode 2. foote and 5. ynches long to a foot of borde at 6. ynches brode 2. foote longe to a foote of borde at 7. ynches brode 1. foote and 8. ynches and a halfe to 1. foote of borde at 8. ynches brode one foote and 6. ynches longe to one foote of borde at 9. ynches brode 16. ynches long to one foote of
