of them And first from the Equinoctiall to the Tropick of Cancer which is there where the Sun maketh his furthest progresse to the North partes it is .1408 myles Secondly betwÃ©en the tropick of Cancer our Artick circle of LondoÌ„ it is 1684. miles Thirdly between our Artick circle the Polare circle is .900 myles Lastly betwÃ©ene the Polare circle and the Pole is .1408 myles So that it is in all from the Equinoctiall to eyther of the two Poles .5400 miles whiche is the fourth part of the compasse of the whole Earth Furthermore for that you may the better vnderstande that the Earth is a Globe or Circular which any person that dothe occupie the Sea seeth most apparantly you shall perceiue it thus if you see a Shippe any thing farre off you may perfitly sÃ©e the sayles of it but not the whole the cause wherof is the circularnesse of the earth and the water of the Sea for that the water doth rise and swell between you and the other ship according to the distance between both the ships bicause the distance to the center of the earth or water is in euery place alike And he that hath desire to know further hÃ©erof M. DÃ©e hath made mention therof in Euclides Elamentes in his mathematical preface also in the .12 booke whither you may haue recourse yet notwithstanding I wil say a litle therof wherby you may discerne how far it is possible to sÃ©e a ship vpon the sea as thus if you be on the sea in a ship so that ther be but halfe a league betwÃ©ene you and the other ship the water wyll be fyue ynches and a halfe hygher in the middle of the waye betwÃ©ene bothe the ships for that the water is equall in euery place vnto the center of the earthe and then the water going by a croked line then to strike it by a right line the middle of the line that shoulde come from the center of the earth shall be shorter than the other .2 lines comming from the center of the earth betweene the .2 shippes by .5 ynches and a halfe and then it must nÃ©edes be sayde that the water is hygher by the said .5 ynches and a halfe And furthermore if the two shippes were a league asunder then the water by his circulernesse shuld be .22 ynches hygher than the leuell in the middle betwÃ©ene both the shippes Furthermore if the .2 ships be 2. leagues asunder then the water shall be higher than the leuell in the middle betwÃ©ene bothe the shippes by .88 ynches which is .7 foote and .4 ynches If the .2 shippes be .3 leagues the one from the other then the water shall be higher than the leuell in the midway betwÃ©ene both the shippes by .198 inches whiche is 16. foote and a halfe Furthermore if the .2 shippes be .4 leagues asunder the water shall be higher than the leuell in the midway betweene both the shippes by .252 ynches which is .29 foote and .4 ynches And furthermore if the .2 shippes were .5 leagues asunder the water shoulde be higher than the leuell of the midway betwÃ©ene both the ships by .550 ynches which is .46 foote lacking .2 ynches Yet furthermore if the .2 ships were .6 leagues asunder the water should be higher than the leuell in the middle way betwÃ©ene them by .792 ynches which is .66 foote Furthermore also if the .2 shippes were .7 leagues asunder the water should be higher than the leuell in the midway between both the ships by 1878. ynches and that is .90 foote whiche is as farre rather farther than it is possible to sÃ©e any ship vpon the Sea Neyther is it possible to see any lande further but such lande as is very high lande whiche for the greatnesse of the heigth you may see it wherfore .7 leagues or .6 leag is called a ken Now the circularnesse of the earth is the cause that you may see a shippe or land further out of the top than vpon the hatches Wherefore it is a plaine case that the Earth and Sea is not flat but circular as is afore declared c. Â¶ The .19 Chapter is as touching the making of Plats or Cardes for the Sea and not to paint their cards as they do but rather to supply the vacant places with other necessarie matters also of three necessarie things contained in the plats or cardes and their vses which is the most necessarie thing in Nauigation FOr the making of Plats or Cards as touching Hydrographia coÌ„monly called sea Cards I meane to say litle therof for that it is sufficiently declared in the booke called the art of Nauigation Sauing this I would wish theÌ„ that be the makers of plats and cardes for the Sea not to paint their compasses with so many colours neither vpon the Lande with so many flagges for that it dothe rather hurte than good althoughe it may be saide they be so painted in vacant places those vacant places I would wish them to furnish with these 2. matters in this order Firste in some vacant place with a compasse there to place against euery point of the half of the compasse letters or some other figures or carecters then in like maner according to that place where suche a Moone maketh a full Sea to make that letter or carecter at the hauen port or place As for ensample thus I place A at the East point B at the East and by South C at the East southeast D at Southeast and by East and so consequently to all the pointes vnto the Weast then that being doone where it floweth an Easte Moone I place A in the platte or carde and where an Easte and by South Moone I doe place B in the carde and so forthe according to the place of the Moone that maketh a full Sea. And where it runneth halfe syde vnder other to make some note vpon the poynt of the compasse c. This also is very necessarie to be done to furnishe vp all the vacant places of the plat or carde to drawe the shape or fashion of euery headland or high lande alongst euery coast that is needefull to be knowne and at what poynte of the compasse the lande is of that fashion at howe farre off the lande ryseth in that fashion and so to make the fashion of the lande as often as the lande altereth the forme and fashion and last of all at what poynte of the compasse the lande hathe that shape or fashion for being vpon one side the lande ryseth of one fashion and on the other side of an other forme or fashion Also being neare the lande it will be in one fashion and being far off in an other fashion as is before declared in the 14. Chapter for there is nothing more needefull and necessary for a Seaman than this to knowe the lande when he sÃ©eth it and there is no way better to make him remember it than to haue notes howe the

To knowe howe far that the lande is of from you by the sight of the lande with youre compasses to do it vpon the land If the pole be raysed more than 50. or .60 degrees it is to hye to be obserued by the crosse Staffe These Starres will serue beyond the Equinoctiall To knowe the rising and setting of these Starres in all places by the order of the xi Chapter The order of the table following How to vse the starres declination to know the heigth of the Pole.
