Of the extraction of Pure Square Cubick. Square-square & square-cubick rootes &c.

Let the number whose roote is to bee extracted bee pointed makeing the first point under the {unite} & comprizeing soe many numbers under each point as the number hath dimensions as if the number be square-cube tis thus pointed 5708.63524.10802.

Then out of the figures of the first point next the left hand extract the greatest roote proper to the power of the number & set that downe in the Quotient which is the first side & is called A. (as the roote quintuplicate of 5708 is (5) , & (5) quintuplicate is 3125 ) then takeing that roote duely multiplied out of the number (as 3125 out of 5708 ) with the rest of the numbers to the next point. seeke the seacond side which is found by divideing that number by another number made out of the first side (which is called the Divisor) & this second side I name E.

As for the Divisors they are easily found by the 2d Table of Powers from a Binomial roote.

If the Number bee of 6.7.8.9.10 &c dimensions The roote may be extracted after the same manner

<4r>

Of the Extraction of Rootes in Affected powers.

The manner of the extraction of rootes in pure & affected powers is very much alike, especially when the affected powers are decently prepared, that is, when theire affections are not over large & those altogether either affirmative or negative, & the power affirmative, affirmations & negations so mixt that there be noe ambiguity & all fractions & Asymmetry taken away

All the figures in the coefficients & affected power are to be pointed (after the manner before explained in the Analisis of pure powers) according to the degree of theire dimensions & the worke onely differs from that in pure powers in that the coefficients enter into the divisors

Let the first side be called A. the 2d be called E. the Roote of the equation {L} the coefficients B . Cq . Dc . Fqq . Gqc . Hcc &c the Power P . Pq . Pc . Pqq &c & the Operation follows

But the Coëfficient maybe greater than the Power soe that it cannot be substracted from it which argues that the Cube more propperly affects than is affected. In this case the coëfficient must descend towards the unite soe many points untill it may be substracted, & soe many points as the coëfficient is devolved soe many pricks must be blotted out towards the left hand in the power affected.

To place the unite of the coefficient in its right place in respect of the power make so many pricks above as there are under the power begining at the unit, & if the coefficient be one dimension lesse than the power make a prick on every figure if 2 dimensions les than every other figure of 3 dimensions lesse make it one each third figure &c

If there be many coefficients in the equation each must be placed according to this rule.

Sometimes the coefficient is under a negative sine as Lc10L=13584 & the Analysis is as follows

But sometimes the square coëfficient hath more paires of figures than the cube to be analysed, hath & then there is præfixing so many ciphers to the cube as figures are wanting, the first side will not much differ from the square roote of the coefficient. as Lc116620L=352947

Sometimes though there be as many 2 figures in the coefficient as 3 figures in the cube affected yet the coëfficient may be so greate as to deceive an unwary Analist As in this Lc6400L=153000 . where the roote of 64 is 8 which cubed is 512 which added to 153 makes 665 then whose roote the number immediately greater is 9 which is the first side =A .

But if the coefficient had beene affirmative, then not the aggregate of the facts but the difference must be taken as in this. Lc+64L=1024 .

Since the roote of 64 is 8 . which cubed is 512 . & 1024512= 512 . the roote of which is 8=A . The like is observable in equations of higher powers

If the Cube be affected with a negative sine as 13,104LLc=155,520 . Then the Equation is expressible of 2 rootes: whereof the square of one is <6r> lesse & the square of the other is greater then 131043 . & therefore one roote is lesse the other greater then 15552013104 . & in this equation 27755LLqq=217944 are two rootes whereof one is greater the other lesse then 21794427755 .

Suppose in the former cubick equation the lesse roote be 12. then 15552012=12960 . or else 1310412×12=12960 . & Lq+12L=12960 . where L=108 is the greater roote.

And in the latter equation if the greater roote be 27. & 21794427=8072 , c. or 27×27×27 + 27755=8072 . 27×27=729 . If there be 4 cubes continually proportionall whose greate extreame is 27c=19683 . & the aggregate of the 3 rest is 8072 & Lc the lesse extreame, therefore Lc+27Lq+729 L =8072 . the roote of which .is 8 the other roote of the equation

☞ Or haveing one roote of an equation the Equation may be lessened by division thus 13104llc = 155520 or l3 13 1 04l+155520=0 . & one roote is 12 . therefore divide this equation by l12 & the Quote is an equation conteining the other roote viz: lq+12l=12960 .

Every quantity hath one divisor more that it hath aliquote parts (that is parts of whole numbers.). How to find a quantity haveing a given multitude of divisors or aliquote parts: suppose its aliq: parts must be 15. 15+1 = 16 & soe by the former section abcd . a3bc . a3b3 . a7b . a15 . may be varyed 15 ways. therefore they shall have 15 aliquote parts & 16 divisors. but since onely 42 like things (as a42 ) can be varyed 42 ways therefore onely a42 hath 42 aliquote parts & 43 divisors. &c

Sec 4

To find the least numbers haveing a given multitude of divisors & aliquote parts instead of soe many letters in the former sec: put soe many least primary numbers & take the least result from them. as from the former example: abcd . a3bc . a3b3 . a7b . a15 . that is 2 . 3 . 5 . 7 . or 2 . 2 . 2 . 3 . 5 . &c. now. 2×3×5×7 . = 210 . & 2×2×2×3×5 = 120 . &c therefore 2×3×5×7 . =210 is the least number haveing 16 divisors.

Sec 6

To find progressions constituteing rectangular triangles with sides rationall the examples following shew. take two numbers as 1 . 2 . then 1×2 = 2 since the product is eaven double it viz: 2×2 = 4 . & 4 is the numerator then 1+2 = 3 & since 3 is od multiply it by the difference of the termes: 1×3 = 3 & 3 is the denominator. & the first terme 43 . then since (1) the difference of the termes is od multiply it by 4 . 4×1 = 4 & 4× per 2 majorem terminum. 4×2 = 8 8+4 (the former numerato{r}) = 12 = numerator 2d. then 3 (the former denom) added to. 2 (the double square of the diff: of the termes because the square (1) is odd) =5 the 2d denominator. I ad another example take 1 . 3 . then 1 × 3 = 3 = 1st numerator. then 1+3 = 4 & since 4 is eaven 4×22 (diff: of the termes) =4 & the first denom is 4. the first terme 34 . then becaus the diff of the termes is eaven 2 2×2 = 4 & 4×3 = 12 & 12+3 = 15 . then 2×2 = 4 . 4+4 = 8 . & 158 the 2d terme & now termes may be had by Arithmeticall proportion. thus. 43 . 125 or 113 . 225 . 337 . 449 . 5511 . 6613 7715 8817 9919 101021 &c & 34 . 158 or 34 178 . 21112 . 31516 . 41920 . 52324 . 62728 . 73132 . 83536 &c thus may other progressions be obteined. For the use take the numerator for one leg & the denom for another & the Hypoten: will be rationall as in 225 or 125 144+25 = 169 = 13 . & in this 178 or 158 225+64 = 17 . Figure

To find numeri amicabiles that is 2 numbers whose aliquote parts are mutually equall to theire wholes. take this Des-Cartes his rule

If (2), or any other number produced out of 2 as 2×2. 2×2×2 &c (viz 2.4.8.16.32 &c ) bee such a number that 1 taken out of it triple there rests a primary number{,} & that if 1 taken from it sextuple there rests a primary number, & if 1 taken from its square octodecuple a primary number rests: then multiply this last prime number by the assumed number doubled & the product is one amicable number & the aliquote points of it make the other Example. if 2 be taken. 2×3 1 = 5 numero primario primo. 2×6 1 = 11 numero primario secundo. 2×2×18 1 = 71 numero primario tertio. 4×71 = 284 , one amicable number, & the 2 former prime numbers × one another & the product ×4 the double of the assumed number viz 5×11 = 55 55×4=220 . Thus from 8 . & 64 &c. may be deduced amicable numbers.

Sec 10

To find triangles whose sides, segments of theire bases, & Perpendiculars are expressible by rationall numbers
Figure 1st if the perpendic: is without the tri: let ac=z . bd=x cd=y . ad=z+y . ad=y+b . xx + yy = yy + 2by + bb . y = xx bb 2b . & cd = z+y+a . xx + zz + 2yz + yy = zz + yy + aa + 2zy + 2za + 2ay . 2ay = xx aa 2za = axx abb b . bxx baa 2zab = axx abb . bxx baa axx + abb 2ab = z . puting any numbers for a , b , & x ; y & z may be found. then ad = z+y = = xx + bb 2b . cd = z+y+a = xx + aa 2a . which reduced to the common denominator 2ab ; & that cast away. cd = bxx + baa . ad = axx + abb . de = 2abx . ae = axx abb . ce = bxx baa . ac = bxx axx + abb aab .

Figure

In like manner if the perpendicular fall within side. ab = bxx + baa . bd = 2abx . ad = bxx baa . dc = axx abb . bc = axx + abb . ac = bxx + axx abb baa .

Also by the conjunction & disjunction of 2 triangles it may be found that ab = bbx + aax ad = bbx aax . ac = bbx aax aax + abb . bc = axx + abb . db = 2abx . dc = axx abb . For if bd=x dc = xx bb 2b . bc = xx + bb 2b . that is bd = 2bx . dc = xx bb . bc = xx + bb . Likewise bd = 2ab . ad = bb aa . ab = bb + aa . 2abx the least quantity divisible by 2bx & 2ab , being divided by them, leaves a & x which must multiply the bases & hypotenusas. If the perpendic: fall without the legs may be thus exprest cd = acc + ayy . da = yyc + aac <14r> ca = acc ayy + cyy aac . ae = yyc aac . ce = acc ayy . ad = 2acy .

July 4th 1699. By consulting an accompt of my expenses at Cambridge in the years 1663 & 1664 I find that in the year 1664 a little before Christmas I being then Senior Sophister, I bought Schooten's Miscellanies & Cartes's Geometry (having read this Geometry & Oughtred's Clavis above half a year before) & borrowed Wallis's works & by consequence made these Annotations out of Schooten & Wallis in winter between the years 1664 & 1665. At which time I found the method of Infinite series. And in summer 1665 being forced from Cambridge by the Plague I computed the area of the Hyperbola at Boothby in Lincolnshire to two & fifty figures by the same method.                 Is. Newton

Annotations out of Dr Wallis his Arithmetica infinitorum.

1 A primanary series of quantitys is arithmetically proportionall, as 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 . & its index is 1

A Secundanary series are those whose rootes are arithmetically proportionall; as 0, 1, 4, 9, 16 . & its index is 2

A Tertianary, quartanary, quintanary series of quantitys are those whose cube, square square, square cube rootes are Arithmetically Proportionall as 0, 1, 8, 27, 64 . / 0, 1, 16, 81, 156 . / 0, 1, 32, 243, 624 . &c Their indices being 3, 4, 5 &c.

3 Subsecundanary, subtertianary, series &c: are those whose squares, cubes, &c are arithmetically proportionall, as 0, 1, 2, 3 . . c:0, c:1, c:2, c:3 &c. Theire indices being 12, 13, &c.

2 Primary Secundanary, tertianary series &c are said to bee reciprocally proportionall ( that is to the same se increasing) which continually decrease as. 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, . 10, 11, 14, 19, 116, . 10, 11, 18, 127, 164, . Their indices being negative as -1, -2, -3 .

4 The indices of compound or mixt of rationall & irrati{onall} series, by multiplying or dividing the indices of the simple series may bee found as in a subsecundanary progression cubed 0, 1, 8, 27, 64 the index is 12×3 = 32 . So in the cube rootes of a secundanary progression, c:0, c:1, c:4, c:9 &c. the index is 13×2 = 23 . so in irrationall reciprocal progressions
qq:10, qq:11, qq:12, qq:13 , the index is -1×14 = -14 .

Now suppose the line ac be divided into an infinite number of equall parts ad, de, ef, fg &c, from each of which are drawne parallels nd pe qf &c. which increase continually in some of the foregoeing progressions or in some progression compounded of them, all those lines may be taken for the surface bqnac , & to know what proportion that superficies hath to the superficies ambc that is what proportion all those lines have to soe may equal to the greatest of them, I say as the index of the progression increased by an unite is to an unite soe is the square abcm to the area of the crooked line. As if abc is a parabola the lines ad, pe, qf, &c are a subsecundanary series (for y=rx) whose index is 12 which added to an unite is 1+12 = 32 Therefore 32 1 3 2 so is the square ambc to the area of the Parab. (the names of the lines are (ad), ae, af &c =x . dn, pe, qf &c =y . ac=p. bc=q.) The case is the same if abc bee supposed a sollid, as suppose it a Parabolicall conoides. then since the nature of it is rx = yy . yy designes the squares nd, pe, qf &c: all which taken together are equivalent to the Sollid. & those squares increase in the same proportion which rx . or x doth. that is they are a primanary series whose index is 1 to which (according to the rule I ad an unite & tis 2. Therefor 1 2 soe are all the squares of the Primary series to soe many squares equall to the greatest of that series. & soe is the conoides to a cilinder of the same altitude.

<16r>

Also if a superficies be compounded of 2 or more of these series, Their area is as easily found as if the nature of the line bee , y = aa xx , or y = a4 2aaxx + x4 or y = a6 3a4xx + 3aax4 x6 . &c. Their areas will bee to the parallelograms {about} them as 2 to 3 , as 8 to 15 , as 48 to 105 &c. but if I put in the intermediate termes in these last named lines their order will bee y = aa xx , y = aa xx , y = aa xx aa xx ¯ , y = a4 2aaxx + x4 . y = a4 2aaxx + x4 aa xx ¯ . y = a6 3a4xx + 3aax4 x6 ; &c: & since these lines observe a geometricall progression their areas must observe some kind of progression. of which every other terme is given viz 1. . 23. . 815. . 48105. . 384945. . 384010395 . Twixt which termes if the intermediate termes . can bee found the 2nd square will give the area of the line y = aa xx , the circle. Soe likewise in this progression of lines y =1 . y = ax xx . y = aa xx y = ax xx ax xx ¯ . y = aaxx 2ax3 + x4 &c: the progression of their areas is 1: : 16: : 130: : 1140: 1630: &c. the 2nd if it can bee found gives the area of the circle for as its denominator to its numerator so is the square of the diameter to the area of a semicircle. If this last progression bee multiplyed by the respective termes in the progression 1. 2. 3. 4 & it may bee diminished the result being 1. 2. 12. 4. 16. 6. 120. 8.170 soe that in this progression 1, b, 12, c, 16, d, 120, e, 170, f, &c: if <16v> b can be found then, the square of the diameter to the area of the circle is as the denominator of b to its numerator. Likewise the 1st series of areas may be diminished by multiplying each terme by its correspondent terme in this progression 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, &c: & it will become, 1, a, 2, b, 83, c, 4815, d, 384105, e, 3840945 . &c. In which if a can bee found then as the denominator of a to its numerator: so the square of the Radius is a semicircle, that making the radius =q . 2aq= . The same kinds of changes may bee performed by any other progressions, as by division by the geometricall progression 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, & the first series of areas becomes 1, g, 16, h, 130, k, 1140, l, 1630, &c viz the same with the 2d series. Also these changes may be done by addition or substraction of mutuall termes in 2 proportions. Soe that the most convenient way may be chosen, wherby to reduce any series of proportions to the most convenient forme.

Now if it be propounded to find these middle termes, It will bee convenient to find how the given proportion may bee deduced from an Arithmeticall, Geometricall, or some other familiar proportion, viz whose meane termes may be found, as this progression 1. 23. 815. 48105 deduceth its originall from this A × 0×2×4×6×8 1×3×5×7×9 & in which A is an infinite number =10.

It will also be convenient to find what relation all the other meanes have to the first soe that if the first bee had all the other may bee deduced thence. As in this case suppose the 1st meane to bee a . The progression will bee <17r> 12a: 1: a: 32: 4a3: 158: 8a5: 10548: 64a35: 945384: 640a315: deducing its originall from A × 0×2×4×6×8×10 1×3×5×7×9×11 & from this A(=12) × 2a × 4a × 6a × 8a × 10a 1×3×5×7×9 . &c {+} (note that the proportions of these meane termes to one another, or to (a), are found by finding the proportion of the circle y = aa xx to the line y = aa xx aa xx ¯ &c).

In this case to find the quantity a : Naming the termes in the progress: 12a: 1: a: 32: 4a3: 158: 8a5: 3516: bcdefghk. 1st observe that db=2 . ec=32 . fd=43 . ge=54 . hf=65 &c the proportions still decreasing & therefore that in cb . dc . ed . fe . gf . hg . kh &c: the latter terme is lesse than the former; & therefore dd cc { is less  yn  dc×cb=db=2. greater  yn  dc×ed=ec=32. or a= d is { less  yn  1×2=1+11 greater  yn  1×32=1+12 . Also
ff ee is { lesse  yn  fe×ed=fd=43 greater  y¯  fe×gf=ge=54 } = a: 8a9 = 2×4a3×3 .
Therefore a is { lesse  yn 3×3 2×4 43 greater  yn 3×3 2×4 54 . And So by the same reasoning. a is { less  yn 9×25×49×81×121×169 2×16×36×64×100×144×14 1413 . greater  yn 3×3×5×5×7×7×9×9×11×11×13×13 2×4×4×6×6×8×8×10×10×12×12×14 1514 . &c. Thus Wallis doth it. but it may bee done thus. a is { greater  yn   1 . less then 32 . | 4a3 is { greater then 32 less then 158 Therefore <17v> a is { greater  yn   3×3 2×4 lesse then 3×3×5 2×4×4 . 8a5 is { greater  yn   158 lesse  yn   3516 that is a is { greater then 3×3×5×5 2×4×4×6 = 3×5×5 2×4×4×2 lesse then 3×3×5×5×7 2×4×4×6×6 = 5×5×7 2×4×4×4 &c. By the same reasoning
a is { greater  yn   32×34×54×56×76×78×98×910 = 5×49×81 2×16×4×64×2 . lesse  yn   32×34×54×56×76×78×98×910×1110 = 49×81×11 2×16×4×64×4 . Or

Suppose the circle to be aec its semidiameter ap=pc=1 . the given sine pq=x , viz: the signe of the angle epa . the segment sought eapq . abcp the square of its Radius. & that, qi: qk: qg: qf: qe: qd: qh: ql: qr: &c are continually proportionall. Then is eq = 1 xx . fq = 1 xx . gq = 1 xx in 1 xx ¯ . hq = 1 2xx + x4 . iq = 1 2x2 + x4 1 xx dq=1 . kq = 1 1 xx . lq = 1 1 xx . rq = 1 1 xx in 1 xx . &c & since all the ordinately applyed lines in these figures abcq , aecq , afcq , agcq , &c are geometrically proportionall their areas adqp , aeqp , afqp , agqp , ahpq &c will observe some proportion amongst one another. To find which proportion, 1st adqp = 1×xx = x . 2dly afc is a parab: therefore afqp = x x34 . also since tis qh = 1 2xx + x4 , therefore ahqp = x 23x3 + 15x5 . Also vq = 1 3xx + 3x4 x6 , therefore avqp = x x3 + 35x5 17x7 . & by the same proceeding the proportion may bee still continued after this manner <18v> x : x 13 x3 : x 23 x3 + 15 x5 : x 33 x3 + 35 x5 17 x7 : x 43 x3 + 65 x5 47 x7 + 19 x9 : x 53 x3 + 105 x5 107 x7 + 59 x9 111 x11 : x 63 x3 + 155 x5 207 x7 + 159 x9 611 x11 + 113 x3 : x 73 x3 + 215 x5 357 x7 + 359 x9 2111 x11 + 713 x13 115 x15 . &c.

Dr Wallis in a letter to Sr Kenelme Digby promiseth the squareing of the Hyperbola by finding a meane proportion twixt 1 , & 56 in the progression 1, 56, 3130, 209140, 1471630, 106252772 &c.

The resolution of cubick equations out of Dr Wallis in his dedication before Meibomius confuted

suppose x=ae. then x3 = a3 3aae 3aee e3 . or x3 = + 3aex a3 e3 . that is making a3 + e3 = q . . & 3ae = p . then x3= + px q . Againe suppose x = a e . then x3 = a3 3aae + 3aee e3 . that is making a3 e3 = q , & 3ae = p , then x3 = px q .

Then in the first of these p = 3ae . or p3e = a . or p327e3 = a3 = qe3 . Therefore e6 = qe3 p327 . & e3 = 12q 14qq p327 . & by the same reason a3 = 12q O 14qq p327 where the irrationall quantitys have. divers signes otherwise a3 + e3 = q would bee false. Soe that
x = a e = c: 12q O 14qq 127p3 c: 12q 14qq 127p3 . is a rule for resolving the equation x3 p O q = 0 , when it hath but one roote that is when it may be generated according to the supposition x = a e . &c. By the same reason x3 + px O q . may be resolved by this rule x = a e = c: 12q 14qq + 127p3 c: 12q O 14qq + 127p3 .

But here observe that Dr Wallis would Argue that since in the first of these two cases sometimes (viz when the equation hath 3 reall rootes) the rule faileth as it were impossible for the equation to have rootes when yet it hath, therefore the fault is in Algebra. & therefore when Analysis leads us to an impossibility wee ought not to conclude the thing absolutely imposible, untill wee have tryed all the ways that may bee.

But let me answer that the fault is not in the Analysis in this example, but in his opperation. for when the equation x3 + p x q = 0 , hath 3 roots hee supposeth it to have but one roote viz x = a e . but since the Equation cannot be then generated according to that supposition it is impossible it should be resolved by it.

<23v>

In like manner hee sayeth that Algebra representeth a thing possible when tis not so as in this example, in the triangle abc, make ab=1 . bc=2 ac=4. FigureThen to find dc=x, worke thus, ad = 4x . bd×bd = 116+8xx2 = 4x2 therefore 8x = 19 . or x = 198 . In which opperacon all things proceede as possible though they are not soe for ac is greater than ab+bc .

yet I answer that if the opperation & conclusion be compared together the absurdity will appeare. for in the equation bd×bd = 4xx = 436164 = 25636164 or bd×bd = -1058 . but it is impossible that a square number should be negative.

Thus x=-b is impossible. square it & tis xx=-b. Againe, & tis x4 = bb . Extract the roote & tis xx = b or x=b. which is possible. The reason of this Event is that x4bb=0 hath two possible rootes viz x=b . x=-b. & two impossible viz: x=-b. x=--b.

Thus the valors of x8 a8 = 0 are x=a , -a , -aa, --aa , 4:-a4, - 4:-a4, --a4, ---a4.

Dr Wallis in a letter to Sr Kenelme Digby teacheth how to find the center of gravity in divers lines first when their position is as in Figure this figure.

Suppose ad the Axis, a their vertex Then saying, as 1 to the index of the line increased by an unite (vide pag 2dam) so cd to ca Then c is their center of gravity.

The Demonstration.

Let p bee the index of the series according to which the odinately aplyed lines (parallell to db) increase, then 1p+1 area of the line ∶ to nmbq . the distances of those ordinate lines from the vertex a are equall to the intercepted diameters & therefore a primanary series (whos index is 1. & since supposing a the center of the ballance the whole weight of the surface or figure is composed of its magnitude & distance from the center and therefore the index of all its moments or whole weight is p+1, viz: the aggregate of the other two. Therefore as all its moments (or the weight of the figure in its site in respect of the center a are to soe many of the greatest (or to the weight of the rectangle nmbq hung on the point d ) soe is 1, to p+2. and if apad 1p+2 , then nmbq hung on the point q shall counterballance the figure in its site &c therefore if accd p+11 , c shall be the center of gravity of those figures.

Figure

Also as the figure is now put extending infinitely towards δ if -2p + 1 - {p } +1 amac . m being the center of qnbd then c shall bee the center of gravity of the whole figure qndbδ .

Demonstration

<24v>

since the lines parallell to aδ increase in series reciprocally proportionall their index is -p & since the halfes of those lines increase in the same proportion their index is -p. whose extremitys or middle points of the whole lines (suposing a the center of the ballance) are theire centers of gravity, their distances from a being proportionall to the lines whose centers they are & consequently their index is -p & since all the moments (or whole weight of the figure) increase in a proportion compounded of the proportion of the magnitudes & distances of the lines from the center a, they will be in a duplicate proportion of the lines magnitudes that is a reciprocall series whose index is -2p. Therefore the figure is to the inscribed parallelogram as 1 to 1p. & all its moments or whole weight in this its site to the weight of the parallelogram as 1 to 12p. Therefore if, amap 12p 1 , the parallelogram hanging on the point p shall counterballanc{e} the whole figure in its site &c: whence the point c may be found easily, viz amac 12p 1p .

Perhaps it may be convenient to cause the cone b to turne about its axis. Or it may bee better instead of the nutt at a with a hole in it to make a sharpe pointed nutt, & instead of the cone b to make use of a broad plate to cover a, c & d & move every way upon them

Another way to describe lines on plates

Figure

Suppose the plate bee abc, whose edge boc is to be made into the fashion of a given crooked line suppose (o) is its vertex & that a circle described with the Radius eo would bee as crooked as the given line at its vertex. Againe suppose two streight rulers mn & pq to bee very trew & steddyly fastened together Figure which must a very little incline the one to the other, soe as that being produced they would meete at ar. Then are the lines pn=a , & pr=b given.

Suppose then the point d in the crooked line is to bee found then is dc given by supposition, & consequently (supposing dk to bee a tangent) dg=y. gc=x. fg=v. fd=s ec=c. fk=v+yyv . ef=v+xc. ek=cx+yyv. & (if ehdkdf) then is eh= cv xv + yy vv + yy = d . (eh) being thus found, supposing that pn=a=ec , then I take re=bda. that is pe=bbda . haveing thus found the point e lay the plate twixt the two rulers so that the point of it, fall upon the point e then should the line mn touch the plate in d. But note that pnmn.

In both telescopes & microscopes tis most convenient to have a convex glasse next the eye for by that meanes the angle of vision will bee much greater than it will bee with a concave one (though both doe magnifie alike). If the convex glasse be Hyperbolicall (&c) make it soe bigg that the penecilli may crosse in the pupill; that is, the exterior focus will be as far distant from the vertex as the eye is. let the glass bee as thinn as may bee that the eye bee not too far from the vertex that it should bee about as thick as the distance of the interior focus from the vertex.

And by this meanes also, (the focus of the objectglasse being within the telescope twixt the glasses) there may bee placed at that focus the edge of <30v> a steele ruler accurately divided into equall parts (to measure the diameters or distances of starrs &c) which should bee soe made that by a pinne or handle it may be placed in any posture & in any parte of the focus, without otherwise altering the Telescope in observations.

Note that were not the glasses faulty they would not onely magnify objects but render vision more distinct; each of the penicilli passing through (perhaps but) the 10th, 20th or 100th parte of the pupill must bee more exactly refracted to one point of the Tunica Retina than in ordinary vision in which each of the penicilli spreads over all the pupill.

☞ Note also that Figurethat the glasse a may be ground Hyperbolicall by the line cb, if it turne on the mandrill e whilst cb turnes on the axis rd being inclined to it as was shewed before. If the edge (cb) bee not durable enough, inough instead thereof use a long small cilinder: which I conceive to bee the best way, of all. For a Cilinder of all sollids is most easily made exact (being Figure turned, as in the figure, by a gage untill its thicknesse bee every where equall). 2 the Cilinder may bee made to slip up & downe & turne round whereby it will not onely grinde the glase crosse wise to take of all hubbes, but also the glasse & cilinder will grinde the one the other truer & truer. All the difficulty is in placing the axis rd perpendicular to the Mandrill ae & vertex to vertex, which yet may bee done exactly severall ways. & untill then the glasse & Cilinder will not fit. & should the axis not intersect the glasse would bee still Hyperbolicall except a point at the vertex of it. The same instrument may also serve for severall glasses onely making df longer or shorter. Let the Cilinder han{g} over the glasse.

To Grinde Sphæricall optick Glasses

If the glasse (bc) is to bee ground sphærically Figure hollow: naile a steele plate to the beame (fg), on the upper side: In which make a center hole for the steele point (f) of the shaft (def): to which shaft fasten a plugg (a) of stone or leade or leather &c: (with which you intend to grinde the glasse (bc)): which shaft & plugg being swung to & fro upon the center f will grind the glasse bc sphærically hollow.

The manner whereby Figure glasses may bee ground sphærically convex may appeare by the annexed figure (being the former way inverted). Also the plugg (a), in the firstsecond figure, is ground sphærically convex.concave.

But if this way bee not exact enough yet hereby may bee {grownd}{ground} plates of mettall well nigh sphæricall, And by those plates may bee ground glasses after the usual manner; If a circular hoope of steele (abc) bee put about the edge of the glasse (d) to keepe it Figure from grinding away at the edges faster than in the middle.

But the best way of all will bee to turne the glass circularly upon a mandrill whilest the plate is steadily rubbed upon it or else <31v> to turne the plate upon a mandrill whilest the glasse is rubbed upon it or let sometimes the one, sometimes the other bee turned.: & by this meanes they will either of them weare the other to a truely sphericall forme. but however let there bee a hoope or of some mettall which weares more difficultly then glasse to defend the glasse from wearing more at its edges then in the middle. Perhaps it may doe well first to weare the plate sphæricall by the hoope alone without the glasse.

The same meanes may bee used for grinding plaine glasses.

Let not an object glasse bee ground sphærically convex on both sides, but sphaerically convex on one side & plane or but a little convex ~ on the other, & turne the convexest side towards the object.

<32r>

<32v> Figure

If the Glasses of a Telescope bee not truely ground Theire errors may bee thus found.

Because an error is much more easily discernable in the object glasse than in the eye glasse let us first suppose the eye glasse to bee ground true towards its center, (tis exact enough if it be sphericall, & not Hyperbolicall), & so wee may find & rectifie the errors of the object glasse.

First make a thin plate (A) of brasse & in the center of it a Small hole (whose diameter perhaps may bee about the 50th or 100dth parte of an inch. With which plate cover the eye glass the center of it respecting the center of the glasse.

Secondly make two other plates the one B with two holes as neare to its edge as may bee their{e}{} distance being about the 5th parte of an inch or lesse, & the other C with one hole close to the midst of its edge. Let the diameters of these 3 holes bee about a 20th parte of an inch or lesse. And theire edges must bee true that they may slide one upon another, & yet not let the suns rays passe through, to which purpose make them oblique. with these two plates cover the object glasse (first stopping the hole of C the holes of the other plate respecting the center of the glasse & looke at a stare (or the edge of the sunne &c) & if the object appeare double (like two starrs &c) make the Tube longer or shorter untill it appeare single. Then open the hole of C , & the plate B being fixed, slide the plate C up & downe still looking at the starre, When then appeares <33r> but one starre that part of the glasse under the hole of C is truely ground in respect of the 2 parts of the glasse under the two holes of B. But {no} when the starre appeares double. And the position of the starre caused by the hole of C in respect of the starre caused by the holes of B, shews which way the glasse under the hole of C is erroneously inclined; the distance of the two starres giving the quantity of that error.

Thus the errors of the object glasse bein{g} found in every place of it they may bee all rectified, & found againe, & againe rectified, untill they almost or altogether vanish.

Then may the eye=glasse bee rectified much after the same manner, in every parte of it, & if it bee necessary the object glasse may bee againe rectified & againe the eye=glasse untill the Telescope bee as perfect as the workeman can make: Whome perhaps experience may teach by this & the former rules to make telescopes as perfect as men can hope to make them.

These glasses may also bee rectified whilst on the Mandrill by observing the images made by reflection from the vertex & all other parts of the glasse what proportion they have one to another & how much they are longer than broader in one place then another. &c.

All the parallell lines which can be understoode to bee drawne uppon any superficies are equivalent to it, as Figure all the lines drawne from (ao) to (co) may be used instead of the superficies (aco.)

If all the parallell lines drawne uppon any superficies be multiplied by another line they produce a Sollid like that which results from the superficies drawne into the same line Figure as if either all the lines in the superficies (oac) or if the superficies oac be drawne into the line (b) they both produce the same sollid (d) whence All the parallell superficies which can bee understoode to bee in any sollid are equivalent to that Sollid. And If all the lines in any triangle, which are parallell to one of the sides, be squared there results a Pyramid. if those in a square, there results a cube. If those in a crookelined figure there results a sollid with 4 sides terminated & bended according to the fashion of the crookelined figure{.}

Reasonings concerning chance.

If

1 If p is the number of chances by one of which I may gaine a, & q those by one of which I may gaine b, & r those by one of which I may gaine c; soe that those chances are all equall & one of them must necessarily happen: My hopes or chance is worth pa+qb+rcp+q+r=A. The same is true if p, q, r signify any proportion of chances for a, b, c.

2. If I bargaine for more than one chance (viz: that after I have taken the gaines by my first chance, from the stake a+b+c; I will venter another chance at the remaining stake &c) my second lott is worth A AAa+b+c = A AAa+b+c = B . My third lot is worth A AA AB a+b+c = C . My Fourth lot is worth A AA AB AC a+b+c = D . My Fift lot is worth A AA AB AC AD a+b+c = E . My sixt lot is worth A A × A+B+C+D+E a+b+c . &c

As if 6 men ( 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. ) cast a die soe that he gaines a who throws a cise first: since there is but one chance to gaine a & 5 to gaine nothing at each cast, I make b=0=c=r. p=1 & q=5. Therefore by the <90v> The first mans lot is worth a6 The seconds is worth a6 a36 = 5a36 . The thirds is worth 5a36 5a216 = 25a216 . The fourths is 25a216 25a1296 = 125a1296 The fifts lot is worth 125a1296 25a7776 = 625a7776 . The Sixts lot is 625a7776 625a46656 = 3125a46656 . &c. Soe that their lots are as 7776: 6480: 5400: 4 5 00 : 3 950:3 1 25 .

Soe that if I cast a die two or more times tis 1. to 5 that I cast a cise at the first cast & 11 to 25 that I throw it at two casts, & 91 to 125 that I cast it at thrice, & 671 to 625 that I cast it once in 4 trialls, & 4651 to 3125 that I cast it once in 5 times. &c

3. If I bargaine to cast severall sorts of lots successively at the same stake the valor of each lot is thus found viz: The first prop: gives the valor of the first lot; which valor being destructed from the stake, the remainder is the stake of the 2d lot which therefore may bee also found by the first prop: &c.

As if I gaine a by throwing 12 at the first cast, or 11 at the 2d or 10 at the 3d &c with two dice. Since at the first cast there is but one chance for a (viz 12 ) & 35 for nothing Therefore its valor is a36 (by Prop 1). & the stake for the 2d cast is a a36 = 35a36 . Now since there are two chances for it (viz: ⚅⚄ & ⚄⚅) & 34 for 0 at the 2d cast therefore its valor is 2×35a 36×36 = 35a 648 . as the stake for the 3d lot is 595a 648 for which there are 3 chances (viz ⚄⚄, ⚅⚃, ⚃⚅) & 33 for nothing Therefore its valor is 595a7776.

<91r>

4 If I bargaine with one or two more to cast lots in order untill one of us by an assigned lott shall win the stake a: Since the chances may succede infinitly I onely consider the first revolution of them The valor of each mans whole expectation being in such proportion one to another as the valors of their lots in one revolution. & the valors of each mans first lot being to the valor of his whole expectation as the summe of the valors of their first lots to the stake a.

As if I contend with another that who first throws 12 with 2 dice shall have a, I haveing the dice. My first lot is worth a36 (by prop 1), The 2d his first lot is worth 35a36×36. And a3635a36×36 3635 my expectationto his. for the two first lots make one revolution because I have the same lot If I throw a 2d time that I had at the first. Therefore ( 36+35=71 a 3636a71 ) 36a71 is my interest in the stake.

If our bargaine bee soe that there is some lott at the beginning of our play which returnes not in the after revolutions, detract the valor of those irregular lotts from the stake & the rest shall bee the stake of the lots which follow & revolve successively. As if I contend with another that who first casts 11 must have a , onely I have {the} first cast for 12. My first lot is worth a36. & the stake for our after throws is 35a36. his firts lot being 35a648. & my next lot 595a11664. soe that his share in the stake 35a36 is to mine as 35a648 595a11664 1817 . Soe that my share in it is 17a36. To which adding the valor of my first lot viz: a36, the summe is 18a36 = a2 , my interest in the stake a at the begining.

5 If the Proportion of the chances for any stake bee irrationall the interest in the stake may bee found after the same manner. As if the Radij ab , ac , divide the horizontall circle bcd into two points <91v> abec & abdc in such proportion as 2 to Figure 5 . And if a ball falling perpendicularly upon the center a doth tumble into the portion abec I winn (a): but if into the other portion, I win b . my hopes is worth 2a+b5 2+5 .

Soe if a die bee not a Regular body but a Parallelipipedon or otherwise unequall sided, it may bee found how much one cast is more easily gotten then another.

☞ 6 Soe that the facility of the chances & the stake belonging to each chance being knowne the worth of the lott may bee ever found by the precedent precepts. And if they bee not both immediatly known they must bee sought before the valor of the lott can bee found.

As if I want two games at Irish & my adversary three to win a , & I would know my interest in the stake (a.) my first lot can gaine me nothing but the advantage of another lot, & therefore to know its vallue I must first find the value of that other lot &c. First therefore if wee each wanted one lot to win a our interest in it would bee equall viz my lot worth a2. Secondly If I want one game & my adversary two, & I gaine the next game then I gaine a but if I loose it I onely gaine an equall lot for a at the next game which is worth 12a, Therefore my interest in the stake is a+12a 2 = 3a 4 . Thirdly If I want one game & my adversary three & I gaine the next game I get a; but if I loose it, then I want one game & my adversary but two, that is I get 3a4: Therefore (there being one chance for a & one for 3a4) my interest in the stake is a+3a4 2 = 7a 8 . Fourthly If I want 2 games & my adversary 3; & I win I get 7a8. but if I loose I get 12a for our chances <92r> will then bee equall; Therefore my interest in the stake is 11a16. Soe if I want 1 games & my adversary 4 my interest in a is 15a16. If I want two and hee 4 , it is 13a16. If I want 3 and hee 4 it is 21a32. If I 1 and hee 5 , it is: 31a32. If I 2 and hee 5 it is 57a64. If I 3 and hee 5 it is 99128a. If I 4 and hee 5 , it is: 163256a. (The like may bee done if 3 or more play together. (as if one wants one game, another 3 a third 4: Their lots are as 616:82:31 . &c.) As also if their lots bee of divers sorts.)

By this meanes also some of the precedent questions may bee resolved. as if I have two throws for a cise to win a , with one die; If I have missed my first lot already, I have at my second cast five chances for nothing. & one for a . therefore that cast is worth a6. Soe that in my first cast I had five chances for 16a & one for a , which therefore (with my 2d cast) is worth 1136a. That is tis 11 to 25 that I cast a cise once in two throws. as before

By this meanes also my lot may bee known if I am to draw 4 cards of severall sorts out of 40 cards 1 0 of each sort.

Or if out of two white & 3 black stones I am blindfold to chose a white & a black one.

If the number of the termes in the denominator thereof be neither 1.3.6.10.15.21.28. &c. the line cannot be squared If it have but one terme tis squared by finding the square of each particular terme in the valor of y & then adding all those squares together. Example 1st. 3x4+a4=yaxx . & y=3x4+a4axx. Then makeing y equall to each particular terme. 3xxa=y. a3xx=y or 3xx=ay whose square is x3a. & a3=xxy. whose square is a3x Add these 2 squares together & they (viz: x4+a4ax) are the square of the line 3x4+a4=ayxx. Againe 2a72 b x6+x7=a3x3y. Or y = 2a72bx6+x7 a3x3 . then disjoynting the valor of y. y=2a4x3 . y=x4a3. y=2bx3aaa Or x3y=2a4 , whose square is a4xx . ya3=x4 , whose square x55a3. y a3 =2bx3, whose square x4b2a3. which 3 squares (viz 10a7 + 2x7 5bx6 10a3xx ) taken together are the square sought for. And these lines may bee ever squared unless in the valor of y there bee found aax, abx, cc+dex, &c. for the Squareing of that line depends on the squareing of the Hyperbola.

In the order of the musicall tones the 2 halfe notes may not be together 1st because every note would then bee distant 3 tones from some other which is most ungratefull Secondly whole notes ought to bee interposed to moderate their harshnesse. Thirdly since there must bee a Fift to the ground: these 12 notes must bee either next the ground or its Fift which would make them harsh & that wee could not gradually passe to or from them.

Neither ought they to be distant but one tone for the second reason {afforesd} & because they will bee more consonant by the absense of more 3 tones &c if they be distant 2 tones yet perhaps they may not bee wholly uselesse. See the last modes.

A Method whereby to square those crooked lines which may be squared.

That a line may be squared Geometrically tis required that its area may be expressed in generall by some equation in which there is an unknowne quantity, so that this quantity being determined the area thereof (comprehended by the crooked line, the two lines to which all the points in the crooked line are referred) is limited & may bee found by the same equation. Also every such equation must be of two dimensions because it expresseth the quantity of a superficies.

That an equation expresse the area of a crooked line tis required that the superficie{s} increase in an unequall proportion, when the line (considered as unknowne) increaseth in arithmeticall proportion, wherefore (suppos ing x always to signifie the unknowne quantity: a, b, c, &c; to signifie the quantitys given) ax, or xx either alone or added to any other supperficies, serve not to find the area of any crooked line which may not be found with out them.

A Method whereby to square such crooked lines as may be squared.

If the crooked lines σha & aoθ are of such a nature that (supposeing [gh] parallell to [qa], & [bh] perpendic: to σha & [an] a given line) ghbgange. Then the area [age]=[qlna] the rectangle made by [an] & [gh].

Demonstration.

Suppose σi, id, de, &c; are tangents of σha, from whose intersections or ends are drawne, ec, df, iz, σw, &{c}{illeg} & from whose touch points are drawne βθ, ho, λμ, &c: all parallel to av. From the said intersections draw sw, ik, dm, es, &c. parallel to bn. Since gh∶bg∷pd∶ip∷an∶ge. pd×ge=iν×an. that is □pkmt=□uτfs. by the same reason tmso= =τνcy; & vpkw=ζuzx &c: Thus also it may be prooved that the ▭vwna is equall to anyy number of such like ▭s inscribed twixt the line ζω & the point a, which if they be infinite are equall to superficies ζaω=vwna .also gπμo. =ql. &c.

Prop 1

To find the line whose area is exprest by any given equation. Suppose the equatiō is x3a. nameing the quantitys a=an. x=ag. x3a=qlna=goa gh=qa=x3aa. bh=s. . ba=v. ssvv+2vxxx=x6a4 00126 equa hath 2 equall rootes & is therefore multiplied according to Huddenius his Meth{illeg} vx=x2+3x6a4.gb=vx=3x5a4. Wherefore if x3aa3x5a4a3xxa=ge. therefore aoω is a Parab: & age=x3a=qlna

<135v>

Also if the Equation be a3x. Then makeing a=an.x=ag.a3x=qlna=gea. qa=aax=gh. bh=s.ba=v. ssvv+2vxxx=a4x. 0012+2 2vx+2xx=2a4xx. v=xa4x3. . which multiplied by Huddenius his method by reasō of z equall rootes. xv=gb=a4x3. Lastly, aaxa4x3aa3xxa3xx=ge=y. &a3=xxy. which last equation expresseth the nature of the line aθo, whose surface aeg=qlan=a3x.



Note that I call that line [x] to which both the lines σha & aoω have respect as πα, ga, &c. but that line to which but one line hath respect I call [y as go, πμ: or [z] as gh, πλ, &c.

If axm=byn.(m & n being numbers that signifie the dimensions of x & y), then nxyn+m=ago, the area of the line aμo. And if a=b×xm×yn. yn is nxyxm=ago. the area of that line.

Of Musick.

1. First some one sound must bee pitched upon, to which all the musick must bee more especially refered than to any other sound, (as number to an unit) let this sound be called the Cliffe or Key of the song.

2. Then consider the sound which is one or two or thre 8ths above or below that key (for Musick seldome takes a larger compasse than 3 8ths) The cheife of which is the 8th next above the Key. 3.Each of these Eights are alike divided into parts, for the parts of the higher eight are an Eight above their correspondent parts of the lower eight. so that the parts of one Eight knowne give all the rest, the other Eights being but a repetition of that. in {a}more base or treble sound. (Hence some call an 8th the largest consonant.)

4. This Eight is first divided into a 5t & 4th, the fift being next above the Key; to which it adds so much sweetnesse that should this fift bee omitted in any song, the Key would imparte its name & nature to some sound which hath a fift above it. And since all harmony without a fift is flat, therefore the key must necessarily have a fift above it. ✝ < insertion from f 137v > ✝ here annex a discourse of the motion of strings sounding an 8t 5t & 4th & of the Logarithmes of those strings, or distances of the notes.

< text from f 138r resumes >

5. An 8th is next divided into a third major & 6t minor, & lastly into a 3d minor & 6t major. * < insertion from f 137v > * these are all the concords conteined in an Eight. Hereto annex a discourse of the 3ds & 6ts

The notes in order of concordance

Coroll: 1. The distance of sounds adds to the imperfection of their concordance. Cor: 2: Tis better to descend than ascend by leapes the first makeing the highest sound harsher, the seacond makeing the lower onely lesse perceptible. < text from f 138r resumes > Which graduation may be thus don.

6. The prime parts of an 8th are a 5t & 4th: of a fift are a 3d major & 3d minor: which two consist the first of a tone major & tone minor, the 2d of a tone major & semitone. A 4th consists of a tone major, minor & semitone. Soe that an eight consists of thre <139r> tone majors, 2 tone minors, & 2 semitones. [The tones might be againe divided into 12 tones & 14 tones, but they would bee of noe use for tones 12 tones & 14 tones being discords can onely serve to move by from concord to concord which if done by 12 tones & 14 tones the number of discords twixt each concord would much more bee harsh than the concord would bee pleasant, besides 12 tones & 14 tones are harsher discords by far than tones, & experience speakes that an 8th run over by 12 notes is unpleasant. Yet perhaps 12 or 14 notes passed over very hastily with a larger stay upon the concords twixt which they are, might bee delightfull. But since they are such discords, inserted as 'twere by accident onely to graduate concords, & soe quickly slipt over, the sence cannot perceive any error or exactnesse in them, & therefore bee they usefull yet to treate of them would be lost labor]

7. The degrees (viz 2 tone majors, a tone minor & semitone in the 5t & a tone major, a tone minor & semitone in a 4th) are 12 severall ways ordered in the 8th which orders are called Modes, generally, because they much limit the partes of the tune from discord sounds of one with another particularly because tunes framed by divers of them differ in their aires or Modes.

8. These modes are 3 fold, viz: 6 in which the 12 notes are distant 2 tones: foure in which they are distant one tone: & 2 in which they are together. The last two are of small or noe use, because every sound is distant 3 tones from some other excepting that there are but 2 fifts. Also thos 12 notes are two harsh to come together much more to bee annext to the Key or its fift. Neither is the seacond sort very useful for one of the 12 notes are annexed either to the Key or its 5t or 8t, also 4 of its sounds are distant 3 notes & but 4 of them are distant a fift from some other: whereas there are but 2 in those of the first sort distant {those} notes & six of them distant fifts from other sounds.; the harshnes of the 12 notes being there also more moderated by their distance. And therefore the first 6 are yet in use.

<139v>

9. The following table may expresse the 12 Modes in their order of Elegancy. In which the tone major & minor are not distinguished, their difference being too little to make new modes by their order changed, though thereby they may add much grace or harshnesse to any particular mode.

_______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ yekey2d3dminor3dmajor4thTritonus5t6tminor6tmajor7th 8th _ p4. p3. p5. p2. p1. p6. _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ O . p . q r . s . t v . o0 s . t v . o . p . q r . s0 r . s . t v . o . p . q r0 p . q r . s . t v . o . p0 t v . o . p . q r . s . t0 v . o . p . q r . s . t v0 _ 1p0 2p0 3p0 4p0 5p0 6p0 _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ o . p . q r . s x . v . o0 r . s x . v . o . p . q r0 s x . v . o . p . q r . s0 v . o . p . q r . s x . v0 _ 7p0 8p0 9p0 10p _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ _______ o . p . q . y s x . v . o0 s x . v . o . p . q . y s0 _ 11p 12p

This order may be thus evinced. The first Mode excells the 2d, by reason of the 12 Note's more convent place twixt the Key & its fift, it lesse detracting from the fift because of its greater distance from it. Also the key hath its 3d major & the fift its 3d minor in the 1st mode, but contrarily in the 2d mode the key hath its 3d minor & the 5t its 3d major. The sweetness of the key in the 3d mode is still more diminished by haveing the 12 note imediateely below it & its 8ts. The 4th Mode succedes as partakeing of the 3ds defect; the sweetnesse of its key's 5t, & consequently of its key, being also diminished by the 12 note immediately above it. The 5t mode succeds because to the imperfections of the 4th this is added that its first 12 note is next above the key & its fifts have tritones. The 6t mode is yet more unpleasant <141r> for both the key, its 5ts, & eights have a 12 note next below them: Also the key & its eights have tritones above & below them. Other reasons might bee added for this order, & also for the order of the sixt last modes; & it might perhaps bee shown that the 7th mode may bee as usefull as the Sixt, but that would bee tedious. Note, that sometime a note is put out of its place for some particular reason (as to prevent a greater discord &c) but that seemes soe rare & accidentall to the song as not to change its aire or constitute a new mode.

10. The tones major & minor may bee six severall ways ordered in each mode & but 10 severall ways in all the six first modes. . the first is by makeing the distances, pq, rs, vo, to bee tone majors op, & st, to bee tone minors. In this order there are five 5ts, 3 third majors, & 3 third minors in an 8th. Thus is the 3d 5t & first mode best ordered, & thus may the 4th & 6t moode bee ordered but not the 2d well for its keys fift will thenbee oo flat. The 2d way is by putting the tone minor twixt, o & p, r & s. This order makes also 5 fifts, thre 3d majors & 3 3d minors, in each 8th. And thus may the 4th, 6t, & 2d Moode bee best ordered; the 3d & 5t moode may bee also ordered thus, but the first not well, for the Keys 5t will then bee too flatt. The 3d way is by putting the minor note betwixt r & s, v & o. & thus each 8th will have five fifts, 2 third majors & 2 minor thirds. The 4th 6t & 2d moode may bee well thus ordered the 1st & 5t not so well & the 3d worst of all. The 4th Order is by putting the minor tone twixt p & q, s & t & thus each 8th hath 5 fifts, 2 minor 3ds, & 2d moode bee ordered well, but the 6t & 4th moode not well. The other six orders are lesse convenient to the Moodes. Note that, In every 8th there are 6 5ts, 3 major thirds & 4 minor thirds whereof one or more of them are mad{e} too flat or sharpe by about the 10th parte of a note, but in this computation I onely reckon the exact concords <141v> Esteeming that order more perfect whose sounds agree in more of the exact concords. Note also that every Eight hath soe many exact 4ths, 6t minors & third majors as it hath 5ts, 3d majors & 3d minors their complements to an 8th.

12. It may bee required sometimes to raise or let fall the voyce in singing which is best done by raising or depressing the key of the song a fift, (if an 8t be too greate), for that will bee consonant with the former sound which is now become (for the present) gratefull to the eare. Also instruments are usually tuned one a fift above another if the keys of severall parts be a fift one above another; & a tune might bee pricked for too high a voyce in one parte of the Gamut & too base a voyce if removed an 8th lower. Hence ariseth a comparison of the same moode with it selfe placed a fift higher. The precedent scheme may serve to represent any of the six modes repeated six times with the distance of a fift twixt each, according to the order of the left hand figures.

Any of the 6 Moodes with its eights may bee represented by any of these 3 orders of letters for the key being o they re present the first Moode, & the second it being, s, & the 3d if it be r &c: Also the first ranke being lowest the 2d a fift above it & the 3d a fift above that,this scheame may represent any of the Modes with the same mode one or 2 fifts above or below it.

<142r>

11. These degrees have of old beene expressed by the Six notes, vt, re, mi, fa, sol, la, the 7th note being omitted as being a discord to the key in the first moode. But of late the usuall notes are sol, la, mi, fa, sol, la, fa, hitherto expressed by the letters o, p. q. r. s.t. v. Tis generally best (by see 10) to make the distance from sol to la, to be a minor tone, from la to mi & fa to sol a major tone, & a semitone from la to fa & mi to fa. Onely in the 2d Mode make sol & la & mi to bee distant a major tone, fa a minor tone from sol els the fift to the key will bee too flat. Or thus if the key bee f, a, b, or c make the distances twixt g & a, c & d to bee a minor tone if the key bee d or e make the distances from f to g & c to d a minor tone, but if it be g make a−g=d−c=g−f.

<143r>

13. Tis usuall to passe from one moode to another in the midst of a song which how & to what moode it may be done will appeare by the precedent scheme. For the 3 rankes may signifie any three Moodes which have one common key, as F is the key of the first third & sixt Moode, G the key of the first 2d & 4th mood &c: And wee may passe from any of those Moodes to another which in that scheme have the same key. But this transition is better done from one key to the key next it, than to the remoter key. Neither may it bee done twixt any other Moodes as twixt the first & fift or 3d & 4th by reason of their great difference, which would soe change the aire of the song as to make the parts of it rather seeme divers songs.

14. It may app10) that if the key bee f, or b, or e, the the transition may be best done the degrees of the Moode being ordered the first way. If the key bee a or d the 2d order is best. If the key bee g the 3d order is best, & the fourth the key being c. But in generall, if the degrees bee ordered the 4th way in the 2d Moode & the 1st way in all the rest, this transition may bee well done.

15. from the consideration of passing from one moode to another in the same song two other moodes may bee usefull the one whereof wants the key the other its fift, but these defects are parly supplyed by the eares retaining the impression of their sweetness made by the former parte of the song. q is the key of one moode & v the key's 5t in the other moode.

A Method whereby to find the areas of Those Lines which can bee squared.

Prop: 1st. If ab=x ⊥y=be. cb=z. bd=v secant=cd. m & n are numbers expressing the dimensions of x, y, or z. a, b, c, d,&c:are knowne quantitys, & axmnb=z. then mazxmnnbx= =mazxmnnnb=v. And in generall what ever the relation twixt x & z bee, make all the termes equall to nothing, multiply each terme by so many times zz as x hath dimensions in that terme, for a Numerator: then multiply each terme by soe many times −x as z hath dimensions in that terme for a denominator in the valor of v.

Prop: 2d. If hi=r. & rv=zy. then hi & be describe equall spaces higk, or hiak & abef. that is abef=aik{h}

Prop: 3d. If anxm=bnym. Or axmnb=y. then is nxyn+m= n×a×xm+nnnb+mb=abef the area of the line aef. And if abxmn=y: then is nxynm=nanm¯×bxn+mn=abef=nanm¯×bxmnn

Demonstracion.

For Suppose akhi is a parallelogram & equall to naxm+nnnb+mb. then is naxm+nnnbr+mbr=ai=z. & (prop i) az2xm+nnbrxz=azxmnbr=v. & (prop 2d) rv=zy. that is axmnb=y.

<148r>

Prop: 4th. If y=axm+bxn. then is axm+1m+1+bxn+1n+1=abef

And in generall if the valor of y consists of severall termes so that x is not of divers dimensions in the denominator of any terme, then multiply each terme by x & divide it by the number of the dimensions of x, all those products shall bee the area of the given line: supposeing also that either none or all the signes of those termes are changed by this operation. For if some bee changed & others bee not they proceed divers ways & joyne not, & then the quantitys y or x must be increased or diminished or otherwise altered.

The reason of this prop: is, that the area described by y is also described by its parts that is by the termes of its valor, & what areas those termes describe appeares by prop 3d.

Prop 5t. The progressions in this Table may bee designed by these geomet: lines. Whereby also any intermediate termes may bee found.

The distance of the terme b from the terme a being called x. & the quantity of that terme being y. & each terme being distant an unit from the next. The nature of which table is such that the summe of any figure & the figure above it is equall to the figure after it. & the nature of the lines are such that any figure; multiplyed by the number of dimensions of x in the first terme, being substracted from the figure following it, is equall to the figure under that following figure. And that the numbers of y may be deduced hence 1×2×3×4×5×6×7 &c.

Prop 6t. If mn=x. This Progression n×m×mn¯×m2n¯×m3n¯×m4n¯×m5n¯n×n×2n×3n×4n×5n×6n &c gives all the quantitys downward, in the preceding table. As if m=3. n=1. the quantitys downward are 11.mn.m×mnn×2n. m×mn¯×m2n¯n×2n×3n.m×mn¯×m2n¯×m3n¯n×2n×3n×4n. &c that is 1. 3. 3. 1. 0. &c. So if mn=12=x. that 1.12.-18.116.-5128.7256. &c. are the terms downward.

Prop 7th. a+b¯}mn=amn+mn×ba×amn+mn×mn2n×bbaa×amn. +mn×mn2n×m2n3n×b3a3×amn. &c As may bee deduced from amn×mbna×mn¯×b2na×m2n¯×b3na×m3n¯×b4na×mb4nb5na &c.

The truth of this Prop: appeareth by compareing it with the two former as also by calculation if mn is a whole & affirmative number, or b lesse than a

Prop 8th. a+b¯}mn=1amnmn×ba×1amn.mn×mn2n×bbaa ×1amnmn×mn¯2n×m2n3n×b3a3×1amn. &c. As may bee deduced from 1amn×mbna×mbnb2na×mb2nb3na×mb3nb4na &c.

The truth of this appeares also by the 5t & 6t proposition, or by calculation If a>b.

The truth of these two prop: is also thus demonstrated If a+b¯}11=1a+b I divide, 1 by a+b as in decimall fractions & find the quote 1abaa+bba3b3a4+b4a5 &c as appeareth also by multiplying both parts by a+b. So I extract the {note} of a2+b as if they were decimall numbers & find a2+b=a +b2a+bb8a3+b316a5 &c, as also may appeare by squareing both parts

Figure1.If two bodys c, d describe the streight lines ac, bd, in the same time, (calling ac=x, bd=y, p=motion of c, q=motion of d) & if I have an equation expressing the relation of ac=x & bd=y whose termes are all put equall to nothing. I multiply each terme of that equation by so many times py or px as x hath dimensions in it, & also by soe many times qx or qy as y hath dimensions in it. the summe of these products is an equation expresing the relation of the motions of c & d. Example if ax3+a2yxy3x+y4=0 then 3apxx+a2pypy3+aaqx3qyyx+4qy3=0.

2. If an equation expressing the relation of their motions bee given, tis more difficult & sometimes Geometrically impossible, thereby to find the relation of the spaces described by those motions.
