TO HIS Most Excellent MAJESTY Charles II. King of England, Scotland, France, and Ireland, Defender of the Faith, etc. Dread Sovereign, I Humbly beseech Your Gracious Majesty, that you would be pleased to pardon my boldness in presuming to present any thing to Your Majesty: But understanding that Your Clemency is very great; and besides, knowing that the thing that I here humbly present unto You is that which hath not been known to former Ages, here in our Nation, nor to Foreign Nations is not yet known to this day: That hath Emboldened me to presume humbly to present it to Your Majesty. And that as Almighty God was pleased that the beginning of it should be in this Kingdom, so now he is pleased that the Conclusion and chiefest use of it (which is to find the Longitude) is made known in the time of Your Reign, for the Honour of Your Majesty and Your Kingdoms: And You have given Command for the Publishing of it, that it may be, not only for the benefit of Your own Subjects, but also for the benefit of all the Christian Nations in the World; for which Your Majesty will be acknowledged by the present Generation, and recorded to after Generations, to be the Rectifier and Settler of the Geography, and Hydrography of the whole World. The Lord God Almighty bless and prosper Your Majesty with a long and prosperous Reign here, and an everlasting Reign in Glory hereafter. So prays Your Majesty's most Humble and Loyal Subject Henry Bond, Sen. HENRY BOND TO THE COURTEOUS READER. Courteous Reader, HEre is presented unto thee a Mystery of a Motion, that out of all Question hath been ever since the Creation of the World, which Almighty God hath been pleased to conceal until this time: And now be is pleased that it shall be made known for his own Glory and the benefit of men in the World; and hath been pleased to make me an Instrument in his hand to declare it to the World: And Our Gracious Kings Most Excellent Majesty, hath commanded the Publishing of it, that it may be, not only for the benefit of his own Subjects, but for an Universal benefit to all the Christian Nations in the World. I shall not enlarge myself in many words to commend its rare and excellent Use for the easy and speedy finding of the Longitude, as well by night as by day, having the Latitude of the place, which is sufficiently manifested and demonstrated in the Treatise itself. By which means the Geography and Hydrography of the whole World will be rectified and settled; for which they are all beholding to Our Gracious King's Majesty. So Courteous Reader farewell. Charles THere are several malicious, unworthy Ignorant persons, to the number of Fourteen; who scandalise the Almighty Jehovah, and give him the lie to his face, and do much dishonour our Gracious Kings Most Excellent MAJESTY, their Ignorance so much superseding their understanding as to speak against the truth of this Treatise, thereby bringing a disrepute upon our English Nation, and unworthily abusing those Six Honourable and Learned Men who were appointed by the King's MAJESTY to Examine the truth of the same; some of whom gave the Report thereof to His MAJESTY a year and a quarter this Treatise was made public.

[Vera Copia.] Joseph Williamson. The LONGITUDE Found. WHereas of late days there hath been pretending for Longitude, I shall not trouble myself with contradicting any of their ways, but show a way which Almighty God hath made known to me, and hath been proved by Observation in remote parts of the World. There hath been some in former days, that have thought they could find the Latitude of any place by the Inclination of the Inclinatory Magnetical Needle under the Horizon; wherein they were much deceived, because the Magnetical Needle respects its own Poles (I mean, the Inclinatory Needle) and not the Poles of the World, except it be in one Meridian in two opposite points. Yet I honour their Names and Memories, viz. Dr. Gilbert, Physician in ordinary to Queen Elizabeth, and Mr. Barlow of Winchester, because they made known to the World their Opinions of that which they knew in their time. And although the Inclinatory Needle cannot show the Latitude (because there is one and the same Inclination in a hundred several Latitudes) yet it shows something else, which is a means to find the Longitude, which I shall show and prove in my further Discourse. In the mean time, I am sorry that any one should be so impudent in our days, to put it out in Print, the Latitude may be found by the Inclination of the Inclinatory Needle; and Mr. Edward Wright's Table of Inclinations, in his Book of the Correction of Errors in Navigation, if that had been for that use, it had been made use of many years before he was born that hath put it out in Print. Mr. Edward Wright, in the latter end of his Book of the Correction of Errors in Navigation, sets down several Reasons, as he thought, against Magnetical Poles; but I shall make it manifest from Eighty five years' Observations, that there are two Magnetical Poles; the one North, and the other South. I wrote in the Seaman's Calendar, above Thirty years since, that there were; and that I knew their Latitude, their Longitude, and their Annual Motion, which Motion of theirs is the cause of the Variating of the Variation of the Magnetical Needle or Compass, and the cause of the Alteration of the Inclinatory Needle. I did in that Calendar foretell Twenty Years before it came to pass, that in the Year 1657, there would be no variation at all at London; which was found to be so; and since it hath been Westerly, and will be Three hundred Years after 1657. Mr. William Burrowes, in his Tract of the Variation of the Compass, had some thoughts of Magnetical Poles, and hath some Calculations to find their Distance from the Poles of the World; but his mind was, that they were, or rather the North Magnetic Pole was farther from the Zenith of London, than the Pole of the World, and makes the North Magnetic Pole to be 25 d. 44 m. from the Pole of the World. Besides, he had some thoughts of a Point respective in the Bowels of the Earth. But when I had read him, and considered of it, I thought the Magnetic Pole might be nearer to the Zenith of London, than the Pole of the World; and that by the Latitudes of London and Vaygats, and their Difference of Longitude 58 d. 00 m. and the Variation at London 11 d. 15 m. East, and the Variation at Vaygats 7 d. 00 m. West, I might find out the Magnetical Pole at M, as in the following Scheme. But here we must take notice that Mr. Burrowes Observations of the Variation at Vaygats, was not the same year that he observed at Lymehouse in October 1580. but four years before, as it plainly appears to me by the motion of the Magnetical Poles; for he was one that Sailed much into those Northern Parts. His Observation of the Variation at Vaygats, was in the year 1576, and then the Variation at London was 11 d. 34 m. but in the year 1580, when it was 11 d. 15 m. at London, it was 8 d. 38 m. at Vaygats; as it appears in the following Scheme: For finding the Latitude of the Poles, we have in the Triangle L P V, the co-latitude of London L P 38 d. 28 m. and P V, the co-latitude of Vaygats, 20 d. 00 m. and the Angle L P V, ferè 58 d. 00 m. the Difference of Longitude between London and Vaygats. To find the Side L V, the Distance between London and Vaygats, and the Angles P L V, and P V L, from P L V Subtract 11 d. 15 m. and there remains the Angle V L M. And subtract 8 d. 38 m. from P V L, and there will remain the Angle L V M. Then in the Triangle L M V, we have the Side L V, and the Angles L M V, and M V L, to find the Sides L M and V M, the Distances of the Magnetical Pole from the Zenith of London, and the Zenith of Vaygats: And lastly, we have in two Triangles, viz. PLM and P V M, two Sides and one Angle included, to find P M, the Distance of the Magnetical Pole from the Pole of the Earth, 8 d. 30 m. The finding of the motion of these Magnetical Poles, was by the decreasing of the Variation. Which was first found to decrease by Mr. John Mair. Secondly, By Mr. Edmund Gunter, Professor of Astronomy at Gresham College in London. Thirdly, By Mr. Henry Gellibrand, the next Professor of Astronomy after Mr. Gunter. Fourthly, By myself, in 1640. And lastly, By Mr. Robert Hooke, and others, in 1665. The increase of it Westerly, as it shall hereafter be declared, it cost me much time in Calculation before I could satisfy myself in it. Before I come to declare the motion of these Magnetic Poles, I shall make two Queries. First, Where these Poles are? Secondly, The Cause of their motion. For Answer to the first: Out of doubt they are in the Magnetic Sphere, that environeth or compasseth the whole Earth. Schematic displaying method of locating magnetic poles Fig. I Although we have found out that which Mr. William Burrowes did not think of, yet we must not forget him for that which he did; because by his Observations, we come to find out the places of the Magnetic Poles, as it appears in the Scheme above. Their Period or Revolution is Six Hundred years; which is Two Hundred and Thirty years more than Henry Philip's doth allow them in the Seaman's Calendar; Their yearly motion is six Tenths of a Degree, that is, Thirty six Minutes; which I thus prove: Subtract 1580 out of 1657, the remainder is 77 Years; which multiply by six Tenths, the Product will be 46 2/10; which was the Angle at the Pole of the World, M P L, in June 1580. From June to October, when Mr. Burrowes did Observe, was Four Months, which took away the Twelve Minutes. Mr. John Kepler that was Mathematician to the Emperor of Germany, by his Chronology of Time, accounts it from the Creation of the World, to the Year of our Lord, 1657, to be 5650 years; and this motion of the Magnetic Poles (notwithstanding it be many times swifter than that motion he accounts upon, yet) gives the same time with his, which makes me much to admire it. I doubt not but the Learned in Astronomy, will in time collect something more from it (than I have done) or than hath been formerly known. Their motion is by Six, Six Tenths of a Degree in one year, Six Degrees in Ten years, Sixty Degrees in a Hundred years, and Six times Sixty Degrees in Six Hundred years. I have heard that some Divines in former Days have been of opinion, That as the World and all the Creatures were Created in Six Days, so the World would continue Six Thousand Years; but I will not meddle with that. These Magnetic Poles are now in their Tenth Revolution, and as I said before, agree in Time with Kepler's Motion. They will be in June 1674. Ten Degrees and Twelve Minutes to the Westwards of the Meridian of London, and Four Degrees and Forty Eight Minutes to the Westwards of the Meridian of the Lizard. The use of the Horizontal Needle is admirable; yet the motion of it is a forced motion, and not natural; as it appears very plain by Robert Norman a Compass-maker in Ratcliff, above Ninety Years past, in his New Attractive, who was the first that ever we read or heard of, that found out the Inclinatory motion of the Magnetic Needle, whose Name ought to be remembered for this thing; and Mr. William Burrowes for the Variation of the Compass. Almighty God was pleased by these two men so to honour our Nation, that the Variation and the Inclination of the Magnetic Needle, should be first found in this Nation, above all the Christian Nations in the World. And now Almighty God is pleased, above Ninety years after them, to make me an Instrument in his Hand, to put it to an use not formerly thought of; that is, to find the Longitude, that as the beginning of it was in this Kingdom, so the conclusion of it should be here, for the Honour of our Gracious King's Majesty, and his Kingdoms, unto whom I humbly beseech Almighty God to grant a long, a prosperous, a happy Reign, and Victory over all His Enemies, Amen. Robert Norman, in his New Attractive●, mentions one Petro de Medina, that in a Book of his concerning Navigation, did hold it for an Absurdity for men to say that the Magnetic Needle had any Variation at all; He said it was an Error in the misplacing of the Wires: But leaving him and his Error, I shall show how Mr. Norman came to find the Inclination of the Inclinatory Needle, as he himself writes, and how he came to think of such a Needle; he had made a large Horizontal Needle, and bestowed much time and pains in fitting and polishing of it, and had equally poized it on its Pin, and when he had touched it with the Loadstone, and put it on its Pin again, the North end of it inclined so low, that it was not fit for use; he thought to mend it by cutting off some of the end of it, and cut off so much that he spoilt the Needle; which brought him into a Passion with himself. After his Passion was over, he considered with himself, whether there might not be such a motion of the Needle, and then made one, and found it so; from whence it appears plainly, that the Inclinatory motion of the Needle is the Natural motion; and that the Horizontal motion, although it be of admirable use in the world, yet it is a forced motion. Some years since I saw an Inclinatory Needle of one Doctor Meret's, of the Physicians College in London, which was made by Robert Norman, in 1578, it being out of order, I fitted it for him. The use of the Inclinatory Needle I shall hereafter show to find the Longitude, which is a use that our former Learned Magnetic Philosophers did not think of in their time, because they knew not the Variating of the Variation. We are to take notice, that as there is a Magnetic Sphere that hath two Poles, so there are other Circles belonging to it, as to the other Spheres, an Aequator, two Colours, and Parallel Circles to the Aequator. The Aequator, for distinctions sake, I call the Magnequator; the Colour wherein the Poles are, the Magnestical Colour; the other, the Magnoctial Colour; the Magnequator doth in a manner represent the Moon's Difference, because the Magnoctial Intersections with the Aequator of the Earth, have a Retrograde motion, as the Head and Tail of the Dragon hath. Also the Magnequator doth in a manner represent the Ecliptic, having a form of situation to the Aequator of the Earth, that the Ecliptic hath to the Aequator of the Heavens; the greatest obliquity being but 8 d. 30. m. as appeareth in the first Scheme. As by the Latitude and Declination of a Star in the Heavens; and knowing on which side of the Solstitial Colour it is, the Right Ascension may be exactly Calculated. So in this, if the Latitude of any Place be given with the Inclination of the Needle, and on which side of the Magnetical Solstitial Colour it is, the Longitude of the Place may be found from the Magnetical Colour, and from that the Longitude from any place in the world; as I shall make it appear by Examples following. But before I go further, I shall say something of the Decrease of our Variation here at London, since the time of Mr. William Burrowes' Observations in October 1580, and shall set down, what the Variations have been found then and since, by Observations, and by my Calculation according to the motion of the Magnetical Poles. d. ′ ″ d. ′ ″ In 1580, M.

West. By Bond's Calculation, it was then 1 d. 25 m. 00 sec. I have set down these both by Observations, and also by my Calculations, to give the World satisfaction that I do not delude them, to make them think that I know such things, and cannot prove them. When any that understand themselves, have made trial by exact Observations, and my Calculations, they will acknowledge me to be honest in that which I have written. There is one that puts it out in Print, that in 1666, he did Observe at the Hermitage in Wapping, with a large Quadrant, and found the Variation to be forty one minutes. How large soever his Quadrant was, his Understanding in this Business was very little, and I fear, something else less. The Variation here at London in June 1666, was 1 d. 35 m. and 36 sec. I know not what Title to give to that forty one Minutes Observer, except it be, Mr. Impudent Ignoramus. Schematic showing methods of calculating relation between Earth and various magnetic spheres Fig. II. As the Horizontal Needle hath a double motion about the Round Loadstone, or Terrula, so also the Inclinatory Needle hath a double motion about the Earth, as it plainly appeareth in the Diagram following. Wherein, let A be the Centre of the Earth, and B C D the one half of the Magnetical Sphere, B A D the Axis of it; B the North Pole of it, and D the South Pole; A C the Equator of it, or the Magnoctial, or rather a Representation of the one half of it; E F the Inclinatroy Needle, in his Ring; F the North End of it, and E the South End. The Needle on the Magnequator at C, is parallel to the Magnetical Axis B A D; but being moved forwards towards B, unto G, the North End F inclines downwards, and so would the South End E, if it were moved towards D. So there are two motions, one of the Instrument, and another of the Needle; and so it will be at I, and at K, until you come to B, the North Magnetical Pole, FIG. II. there will be continually one motion of the Instrument, a Quadrant from C to B on the Centre of the Earth, and a motion of the Needle a Quadrant from V to F, at the North Magnetical Pole of the Earth, and then the South End of the Inclinatory Needle will be upwards to the Zenith, and the South Point of the Horizontal Needle will be to the North Pole of the Earth. One of late was questioning in what part or what Distance these Magnetical Poles were from the Earth? I answer, They are very near to the Body of the Earth; because the nearer the Magnet, the greater the strength. Something is to be considered concerning those Variations of the Horizontal Needle, that are not according to the situation of the place from the Magnetical Poles, but are contrary, as all the West-Indies, according to the Poles, they should be Easterly, and they are Westerly, which is by some accidental Cause in the Earth; and their Motion, as I have formerly said, a forced Motion, and not Natural. These Variations must be always the same, except we will say one piece of the Earth moves from another, which were very absurd. If the Inclinatory Needle be fitted as it ought to be, to turn Horizontally as the Horizontal Needle doth, it will find an amplitude or an Azimuth, as well as the Azimuth-Compass, and hath been so used by Capt. John Wood, now Captain of His Majesty's good Ship Bonadventure. If the Inclinatory Needle be not fitted to do the same that the Horizontal Needle doth, it is not worth a straw to be made use of for the Inclination; and therefore it is an Instrument of that curiosity in the making, that it is not for such an one that will run headlong to make any thing, although he neither understand nor know whether it be right or wrong, nor cares not so he may get Money by it. In the Year 1665. my Son Henry Bond sailed to the East-Indies in the good Ship, the Greyhound of London, I sent by him an Inclinatory Needle of five inches long, in a Brass Ring, fitted as it ought to be, to observe with it on the Land; and in the Year 1667, I wrote to him that the Inclination of the Needle at Ballasore, the place where they were, was 32 d. 10 m. and that the Variation was 7 d. 32 m. West. When he came home, he did acknowledge the Inclination was 32 d. 15 m. and the Variation 7 d. 30 m. by their Azimuth-Compass. Now by this it is plainly evident that if by the Longitude of any place from the Magnestical Colour, the Inclination may be found, than the Longitude of any place from the Magnestical Colour, may be found by the Inclination, and by that the Difference of Longitude between any two places on the Earth. I did write in the Seaman's Calendar above Thirty Years since, that without doubt the Longitude would be found by the Observation of something below the Moon. I have an Observation that was made by Mr. James Moorcock, above Thirty Years since at Cape Charles, on the Coast of Virginia, which Observation of his doth very near agree to my Calculation now, notwithstanding it be so long since, and I have forgotten the Year when the Observation was made; and therefore in finding of the Longitude, I shall make use of my Inclination. But to give the better satisfaction to the World I shall set down his Observation and my Calculation for this present time. Mr. Moorcock's Observation of the Inclination, somewhat above 60 d. 00 m. Bond's, 59 d. 50 m. Here we may take notice, that although the Alteration of the Inclination be but slow when it hath been at the greatest or least at any place, as here at, London, since it was at the greatest in 1657, it is altered not full six Minutes to this Year 1673; yet in process of time it altars in some places more than the Variation, and in some places near as much as the Variation. The Alteration of the Inclination here at London, is above Twelve Degrees, and therefore very unlikely to find the Latitude by it. A Question may be made, Whether the Longitude may be found at Sea by the Inclinatory Needle? I Answer, It may, if it be fitted and kept as it ought to be, it will do its office as well as the Azimuth-Compass doth to find the Variation. Now I shall set down Demonstration of my Son Henry Bond's Observation at Ballasore in East-India, in 1667, which I have before mentioned. Schematic locating various magnetic and longitudinal calculations pertaining to Ballafore in East India. Fig. III. Example I. At Ballasore (forementioned) in East-India, North Latitude, 22 d. 30 m. the Compliment P B 67 d. 30 m. and N B 72 d. 33 m. the Distance between the Zenith of Ballasore, and the Magnepole, and N P 8 d. 30 m. the Distance between the Magnepole and the Pole of the Earth. Here we have always three Sides of a Spherical Triangle given to find an Angle; which is not hard to do: it is no difficult thing to find the Angle at P, which is the difference of Longitude between the Magnestical Colour and the Meridian of the place where the Observation is made. ☞ We add the three Sides together, B N, 72 d. 33 m. and the Side B P 67 d. 30 m. and the Side P N 8 d. 30 m. their Sum is 148 d. 33 m. their half Sum 74 d. 16 m ½; from which Subtract 8 d. 30 m. one containing Side of the Angle sought, the first Difference is 65 d. 46 m. ½; and Subtract the co-latitude of the place, 67 d. 30 m. the other containing Side of the Angle sought, from the half Sum, and the second Difference is 6 d. 46 m. ½. Then add the Sine of the first Difference, 65 d. 46 m. ½, which Sine is 995996, the Sine of the second Difference, 6 d. 46 m. ½; which Sine is 907177, and the residuum of the Sine of 67 d. 30 m. which is 083030, and the residum of the Sine of 67 d. 30 m. which is 003438. The whole Sum of the two Sins, and the two Residuums is 1989664, the half whereof is 994832, which is the Sine of 62 d. 36 m. half the Difference of Longitude between Ballasore and the Magnestical Colour, which being doubled, makes 125 d. 12 m. for the whole Difference of Longitude; from which subtract 6 d. 00 m. the Difference of Longitude between London and the Magnestical Colour, in the year 1667. and the Remainder is 119 d. 12 m. the Angle B P V. the Difference of Longitude between London and Ballasore: The like is to be done for any place that is on the North side of the Magnequator. In the Year 1666, in June, the Magnepole was in the Meridian of the Lizard. Our Second Example shall be at the Cape of Good Hope, in the Year 1666. Which is in South-Latitude 35 d. 30 m. The Inclination of the South end of the Inclinatory Needle at that place, is 47 d. 5 m. to which there answers in the Carolina Tables 61 d. 44 m. the Compliment of the Magne-latitude, or the Distance between the Earth-Zenith of the Cape, and the South Magnepole, as it appears in the Second Demonstration. Wherein, let the Circle S L E P O W, represent the Magnestical Colour, and the Meridian of the Lizard, P the North Pole, and S the South Pole of the Earth, P C S the Meridian of the Cape at C, and let N represent the North Magnepole, and M the South Magnepole, and let the Arch N C M represent the Magnemeridian of the Cape, and O R L, the Aequator of the Earth, and W R E the Magnequator.

The Sum of the three Sides 110 d. 8 m. the half Sum 55 d. 4 m. the first Difference between 8 d. 30 m. and the half Sum, is 46 d. 34 m. the second Difference between the co-latitude of Cape Charles and the half Sum, is 2 d. 44. m. the Sine of the first Difference 986223. the Sine of the second Difference 867840, the Residuum of 8 d. 30 m. is 083029, the Residuum of the Sine of 52 d. 20 m. 010150. the Sum of them all is 1947244, the half Sum is 97●622, which is the Sine of ●● d. 00 m. which being doubled, is 66 d. 20 m. unto which, if we add 4 d. 12 m. the Difference Schematic displaying various magnetic and longitudinal calculations relating to the Lizard and the Streights of Magellan in 1673. Fig. V of Longitude that the Magnepole is gone to the Westwards of the Meridian of the Lizard in June 1673, the whole Sum is 70 d. 12 m. the Difference of Longitude between Cape Charles and the Lizard; which is according to the Account of Capt. John Whittee, who found it in several Voyages to be 70 d. 00 m. little more or less. FIG. V Our Fourth Example shall be between the Lizard and the straits of Magellan in 1673. by Supposition, because we have no Observation there, but do it according to that which we find to be the truest Longitude; and also to show a Demonstration to know the Longitude of such Places as are to the Westwards, and in South-Latitude may be found. In the Demonstration let the Circle S E P W, represent the Magnesticial Colour, S K Q P F represents the Meridian of the Lizard, and P B S the North Pole of the Earth, and S the South Pole; P B S, the Meridian of the straits of Magellan, B Ma the Latitude of it 52 d. 20 m. and let N represent the North Magnepole, and M the South Magnepole, N Ma the Ma M the Magnemeridian of the straits, and Ma the Straight itself. The Inclination of the South end of the Inclinatory Needle there, 65 d. 26 m. to which answers in the Caroline Tables 42 d. 26 m. the Distance between the Earth-Zenith of the straits, and the South Magnepole, viz. Ma M, in the Demonstration, Here we have three Sides of a Spherical Triangle, FIG. VI Ma S the co-latitude of the straits, 37 d. 40 m. and Ma M the Magne-co-latitude of the straits, 42 d. 26 m. and S M the Distance of the two Poles, 8 d. 30 m. the Sum of the three sides 88 d. 36 m. the half sum, 44 d. 18 m. the first Difference between 8 d. 30 m. and the half sum 35 d. 48 m. the second Difference 6 d. 38 m. between the co-latitude of the straits and the half sum. Schematic relating to various magnetic and longitudinal calculations around the Streights of Magellan. Fig. VI Schematic displaying difference of longitude between the magnesticial colure and the Meridian of London in June 1576 Fig. VII. For a further Demonstration of this business of Longitude, we will find by our Calculation Robert Norman's Inclination that he found in the Year 1576, or else one Year after, which Inclination he writes of in the end of the Fourth Chapter of his New Attractive, and saith it was about 71 d. 50 m. so are his words; now if we go backwards, accounting Thirty Six Minutes a Year for the procession of the Magnesticial Colour from the Year 1576, unto the Year 1657, the time will be 81 years; which multiplied by 6/10, product will be 48 d. 63 m. the Difference of Longitude between the Magnesticial Colour and the Meridian of London, in June 1576, FIG. VII. I begin the Year in this business when the Sun is in the North Tropic. In the Triangle L P M, we have the co-latitude of London, L P 38 d. 28 m. and the Distance the Magnepole from the Pole of the Earth, M P, 8 d. 30 m. and the Angle at P, 48 d. 36 m. the Difference of Longitude between the Magnesticial Colour and the Meridian of London; by which we find the side L M (the Distance between the Earths-Zenith of London, and the Magnepole) to be 33 d. 19 m. to which the Inclination against it in the Caroline Tables, is 71 d. 48 m. which differs but two Minutes from tnat which Robert Norman said it was about, viz. 71 d. 50 m. If Robert Norman had set down the Year, and the time of the Year, when his Observation of the Inclination was made (as Mr. Burrowes did of the Variation) we should not have differed any thing at all from him; the Inclination was then increasing, but now it is decreasing, aind will be until the Year 1957, and then the Variation will be nothing at London, as it was nothing in 1657, being 300 years distant. If we divide the Year into Thirty Six parts, we shall find in what time the procession of the Magnesticial Colour goeth forwards one Minute, or one Mile of the Equator of the Earth, which time will be Ten Days, Three Hours, and Thirty Minutes; which being multiplied by 36, tne Product will be 365 Days, and 6 Hours. Having gone thus far to find in what time the Magnesticial Colour goeth forwards one Mile of the Aequator of the Earth, if we examine how much it goeth forward in 24 hours, it will be 591.37 Foot, and in one hour 24.64 Foot; here we account one Mile according to Mr. Richard Norwood's Experiment set down in his Sea-man's Practice, which is 6000 English Feet to one Mile or Minute of the Aequator or Meridian, according to the French 26.39 in one hour, and in one Minute 5.278 inches. The last thing shall be to find the least and the greatest Inclination of the Inclinatory Needle in any Latitude. Subtract 8 d. 30 m. from the Compliment of the Latitude, and look the remainder in the Tables, and right against it is the greatest Inclination in that Latitude, and add 8 d. 30 m. to the Compliment of the Latitude, and look the sum in the Tables, and right against it is the least Inclination. Example 1. Here at London the Compliment of the Latitude 38 d. 28 m. and 8 d. 30 m. added together, the sum is 46 d. 58. m. against which, there is in the Table 61 d. 50 m. the least Inclination. And subtract 8 d. 30 m. from 38 d. 28 m. and the Remainder is 29 d. 58 m. against which in the Table is 73 d. 55 m. the greatest Inclination here at London, which was in the Year 1657. If the Compliment of the Latitude and 8 d. 30 m. added together, exceed 90 d. 00 m. Subtract it out of 180 d. 00 m. and look the remainder in the Table; then if the Latitude given be North, the least Inclination is of the South end of the Needle: But if the Latitude given be South, the least Inclination is of the North end of the Needle. Example II. In North Latitude 7 d. 00 m. the Compliment, 83 d. 00 m. unto which, 8 d. 30 m. added makes 91 d. 30 m. the remainder to 180 d. 00 m. is 88 d. 30 m. against which in the Table, is 3 d. 00 m. the least Inclination of the South end of the Needle, the greatest Inclination will be of the North end. Then Subtract 8 d. 30 m. from 83 d. 00 m. the compliment of the Latitude; the remainder is 74 d. 30 m. against which in the Table is 29 d. 00 m. for the greatest Inclination of the North end of the Needle in that Latitude. Here is the Conclusion of Thirty Eight Years Magnetic Study and Observations. I know when this Mystery comes to be publicly and foreignly known, it will be the admiration of all the Christian Nations in the world; What then shall any man have high thoughts of himself for it? God forbidden: Far be it from him; let him look upon himself as an Instrument in the Hand of Almighty God, to declare that which he hath concealed, until his own Time came that he was pleased to make it known, for his own Glory, and the Benefit of Men in the World. Therefore unto Almighty God be all the Praise and Glory of This, and all the rest of his Wonderful Works.
