Mathematicks made easie: or, a mathematical dictionary, explaining the terms of art, and difficult phrases used in arithmetick, geometry, astronomy, astrology, and other mathematical sciences. Wherein the true meaning of the word is rendred, the nature of things signified discussed, and (where need requires) illustrated with apt figures and diagrams. With an appendix, exactly containing the quantities of all sorts of weights and measures: the characters and meaning of the marks, symbols, or abreviations commonly used in algebra. And sundry other observables. By Joseph Moxon, a member of the Royal Society, and Hydrographer to the King's most excellent Majesty. The second edition, corrected and much enlarged by Hen. Coley, teacher of the mathematicks in Baldwins Gardens.
