The art of measuring, containing the description and explanation of the carpenters new rule : Fnrnished [sic] with variety of scales. Fitted for the more speedy mensuration of superficies and solids. Also certain geometrical problems, a table of logarithms to 10000, and some uses of the same exemplified in arithmetick and geometry: but more particularly applied to the mensuration of superficies and solids, as board, glass, pavement, wainscot, plaistering, tyling, timber, stone, brick-work, and gauging of cask. The third edition with additions, by W. Leybourn. To which is added a supplement; being the description of the line of numbers, with its use, in divers practical examples of mensuration, of singular use for work-men, artificers, and other ingenious persons delighting therein.

The finding of heights and distances, both near and far off, the hour, and suns azimuth, particularly and generally for any latitude. Also the uses of the glasiers, the gaugers, and masons sliding rules, many ways. Also the use of a new gunners rule, with lines to find the weight of iron, lead, or stone, shor, the weight of powder, for more, true, or less fortified guns, of brass, or iron: with the cateridges length and breadth, convenient. The use of the 30 and 40 scales in architecture great or small, and to find the length and angles of hips, rafters, and purloins, in any kind of roof, square, taper, or bevelling at any pitch or pendicular. With the use of a box and magnetical needle, to find the hour and azimuth, easily and generally, with the variation of the compass, declination of plains, and miners use. By John Brown.
