The faithfull surveyour discovering divers errours in land measuring; and shewing how to measure all manner of ground, and to plot it, and to shut it, and to prove the shutting, by the chain onely; as quickly, exactly, and with less help then with any instrument whatsoever: as also to take distances of a mile-space by the chain without measuring of them, and the situation of any building. Teaching likewise the making and use of a new and general instrument, called a pandoron; which, as exactly and with less charge, supplies the use of the plain-table, theodelete, quadrant, quadrat, circumferentor, and any other observing instrument.
