the center (_D_) and there marke out a point with the
letter (_L_); then with your compasse take the shorter
perpendicular line (_GH_,) and apply that widenesse
vpon the longer perpendicular line (_IK_,) placing
the one foote of your compasse at (_I_,) which is
the bounds of the greater latitude, and extend the
other towards (_K_), and there make a point at (_M_),
then with your compasse take the distance betwixt (_L_)
and (_M_), and apply the same to the semicircle.
Placing the one foot of your compasse in (_A_) and
the other towards (_B_), & there marke out a point
with the letter (_N_), now the number of degrees comprehended
betwixt (_A_) and (_N_) will expresse the true distance
of the two places, which will bee found to be 39 degrees:
which being multiplied by 60. and so converted into
miles according to the former rules, will produce 2340.
which is the distance of the said places.
