Also, How to describe all necessary Furniture for Sun-Dials, as the Sun's Place and Declination; with the Babylonish, Italick, and Jewish Hours, and the Point of the Compass the Sun is upon at any Time of the Day; and to make Dials to give the Time of the Day at any Place proposed, in any Part of the World. With Reflective Dialling: Shewing how to make a Dial that shall give the true Hour of the Day, where the Sun cannot shine. To which is now added, instrumental dialling: by the lines of hours, and Inclination upon the Scales, and likewise mechanick dialling, whereby any Person may, without Mathematicks, make a Dial upon any Plain; with the Manner of ordering Oyl and Colours for Painting Sun-Dials. Concluding with tables ready calculated for all latitudes and declinations, for the more expeditious drawing the hour-lines upon any plain. By Henry Wilson.

Wozu noch eine neue Invention einer Universal-Sonnen Uhr kommt, welche ohne Magnet-Nadel zu stellen, selbst die wahre Mitternachts-Linie, und Abweichung aller Wände von denen Haupt-Plagis Mundi wie auch Elevationem Poli ben Tage anzeiget, und zu Solvirung noch anderer Problematum dienet / entworfen und mitgetheilet von Johann Friederich Penther.

The whole laid down after so plain a Method, that any Person (tho' a Stranger to the Art) With a Pair of Compasses and Common Ruler only, May make a Dial upon any Plane for any Place in the World, as well as those who have attained to the greatest Knowledge and Perfection in the Mathematics. Illustrated with many copper plates, And Examples of Dials for London, Exeter, Bristol, Worcester, Oxford, Cambridge, Norwich, Lincoln, Chester, Liverpool, York, Newcastle upon Tyne, Durham, Edinburgh, Dublin, &c. To which are added, 1. A Collection of above 300 Mottos in Latin and English. 2. A New and Correct Alphabetical Table of the most eminent Cities and Towns, in the whole World; shewing the Elevation of the Pole, and the Difference of their Meridian from London. 3. The best and most approved Methods of Painting Sun-Dials. A Work not only useful for Artificers, but very entertaining for Gentlemen, and those Students at the Universities, that would understand Dialling, without the Fatigue of going through a Course of Mathematics. A new edition: not only very much improved by the Addition of the New Star-Dial, &c. but it is the only Book upon the Subject that has been adapted to the New Stile. By Mr. Charles Leadbetter.
