A tutor to astronomie and geographie, or, An easie and speedy way to know the use of both the globes, coelestial and terrestrial in six books : the first teaching the rudiments of astronomy and geography, the 2. shewing by the globes the solution of astronomical & geographical probl., the 3. shewing by the globes the solution of problems in navigation, the 4. shewing by the globes the solution of astrological problemes, the 5. shewing by the globes the solution of gnomonical problemes, the 6. shewing by the globes the solution of of [sic] spherical triangles : more fully and amply then hath ever been set forth either by Gemma Frisius, Metius, Hues, Wright, Blaew, or any others that have taught the use of the globes : and that so plainly and methodically that the meanest capacity may at first reading apprehend it, and with a little practise grow expert in these divine sciences / by Joseph Moxon ; whereunto is added Antient poetical stories of the stars, shewing reasons why the several shapes and forms are pictured on the coelestial globe, collected from Dr. Hood ; as also a Discourse of the antiquity, progress and augmentation of astronomie.

Having the Meridian Altitude of the Star, you must find its Declination by the 27. Probleme: and if the Declination be South, and you on the North side the Equator, you must ad the Declination to the Meridian Altitude, and the sum of both makes the Altitude of the Equinoctial: But if the Declination be North, and you on the North side the Equator, you must substract the Declination from the Meridian Altitude, (as was taught by the 15. Prob. in the Example of the Sun) and the remainder is the Altitude of the Equinoctial Then (as was taught by the 15 Probleme aforesaid) substract the Altitude of the Equinoctial from 90, the Remainder is the Elevation of the Pole in your Place.
