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.

Example.

By the last Probleme the Meridian Altitude of Spica Virgo was 28 degrees 57 min, and the Declination of Spica by the 27th Probleme is found 9. degrees 33. min. South: therefore because the Declination is South, I ad 9. degrees 33. min. to the Meridian Altitude, which makes 38. deg. 30. min. for the Ele∣vation of the Equinoctial: which 38. deg. 30. min. substracted from 90. leaves 51. degrees 30. min. for the Elevation of the Pole here at London.
