PROPOSALS
For
PRINTING
of
Holwell's
Book
of
DIALLING
.
WHereas
John
Holwell
,
Teacher
of
the
Mathematicks
;
having
in
some
Pieces
he
hath
Written
,
signified
his
Intentions
to
Publish
a
small
Piece
of
Dialling
now
ready
for
the
Press
,
which
he
intends
to
be
,
A
Key
to
the
whole
Art
of
Arithmetical
Dialling
:
In
Two
Parts
:
The
First
shewing
how
to
make
all
manner
of
Regular
,
and
how
to
reduce
all
Irregular
Dials
,
to
Regular
forms
,
by
means
of
a
new
Latitude
and
new
Declination
,
with
the
several
Projections
,
shewing
where
all
the
requisites
lye
in
the
Sphear
.
The
Second
Part
,
Shewing
the
placing
of
all
the
Furniture
on
all
manner
of
Dials
how●●●r
Situated
,
and
that
Arithmetically
,
giving
their
reasons
Astronomically
.
Whereunto
will
be
Annexed
,
The
Tables
of
Altitude
of
the
Sun
,
for
the
beginning
of
his
Entrance
in
each
Sign
,
and
for
each
hour
of
the
day
,
for
all
Latitudes
,
from
one
Degree
to
ninety
,
with
Tables
of
Azimuth
to
each
Latitude
,
and
many
other
Tables
,
very
useful
in
the
Art
of
Shadows
,
with
their
use
in
making
all
Conceits
in
Dialling
;
too
large
to
be
repeated
;
as
also
the
Description
and
making
of
the
Conceited
Dials
that
stood
on
the
Pyramid
in
His
Majesty's
Privy
Garden
that
was
broke
down
of
late
Years
:
All
which
he
doth
Propose
to
bring
into
a
Book
in
Quarto
,
containing
forty
Sheets
,
besides
Copper
Cuts
,
which
will
be
forty
,
if
not
more
,
all
the
Projections
and
Dials
being
such
.
And
because
this
Book
hath
been
very
much
Inquired
after
,
and
the
Booksellers
care
not
to
buy
a
Copy
that
is
so
chargeable
,
by
which
means
an
Author
hath
but
small
Encouragement
to
part
with
his
Labour
,
that
hath
been
so
great
for
some
Years
,
in
framing
of
Tables
that
never
were
before
made
publick
in
the
World
,
except
he
might
have
some
advantageous
consideration
;
therefore
the
Author
,
that
he
may
be
the
better
enabled
to
Print
the
same
himself
,
hath
thought
good
to
make
these

following
