The compleat surveyor, containing the whole art of surveying of land : by the plaine table, theodolite, circumferentor, peractor and other instruments, after a more easie, exact and compendious manner, then hath been hitherto published by any : the plain table being so contrived, that it alone will conveniently perform whatsoever may be done by any of the fore-mentioned instruments, or any other yet invented, with the same ease and exactness; and in many cases much better : together with the taking of all manner of heights and distances, either accessible or in-accessible, the plotting and protracting of all manner of grounds, either small inclosures, champion plains, wood-lands, or any other mountainous and un-even grounds ; also, how to take the plot of a whole manor, to cast up to the conteut, and to make a perfect chart or map thereof : all which particulars are performed three several ways, and and [sic] by three several instruments : hereunto is added a new way of surveying of land, by which a man may be satisfied whether his plot will close before he begins to protract the same, with the manner how to order such water colours as are necessary for the beautifying of maps and plots; also how to know whether water may be conveyed from a spring-head to any appointed place or not, and how to effect the same : with whatsoever else is necessary to the art of surveying
