Astronomy, theorical, practical. Navigation, plain, spherical. Trigonometry, rectilinear, circular. With the description, construction, and use of geometrical and nautical instruments: and the doctrine of triangles applied to practice in mensurations of all kinds: as in longimetria, planometria, military architecture, or taking of heights, distances, &c. surveying of land, woods, roads, &c. fortification. And in navigation, dialling, &c. All which are disposed in such method and order as they ought to be read and practised, by such as would attain to a competent proficiency in them by their own industry.
