(2) acq potest ita fort fortificatio acu magnetice

Unde sequitur pyx idem posse fieri satis magnam,
satisque accurate subdivitam. Satis utem virium

restituit se ipsam in lineam flexumque priorem
veri ergo flexus emergent semper ex porturbatis
In quo acus pendula ea in re acubus sunt inferiora
per turbatio enim in iis semet admissa postea non
compensatur
(4) Quod declinationes attrnet, etsi suppineremus
nullum hic ex ipsa pynide remeorium esse,
constat tamen earum observationem pene quo-
tidianam non esse difficilem, et in longissimis
itineribus Nautas quosdam acus declinationem

Accedit quod declinatio mutatur non per
saltus, sed paulatim, potest ergo continue
