between two round Boards of ſomewhat a greater Diameter than

the Globe, with four pillars, as in the enſuing figure doth graphically
<

appear. </

<
s
>But in the round Board which is put over the hole or mouth
<
lb

of the ſaid Globe, you muſt alſo make a round hole ſomewhat

rower than that of the Globe, but yet big enough for a man to paſſe
<
lb

in and out thereat. </
s

<
s
>Afterwards under this round Board ſo bored,
<
lb

you muſt place and fix another round bored piece of Lead of ſuch

thickneſſe, as that it may be able to draw the ſaid Ball or Globe of
<
lb

Glaſſe, together with the Diver in ſuch manner under Water, that
<
lb

the upper round Board do reſt in the Surface of the Water, namely,
<
lb

that it may not be ſo heavy as to ſink the Globe and Diver to the
<
lb

bottome, but only to retain it beneath the Surface of the Water,
<
lb
/>
which by tryal may be eaſily proportioned, namely, by adding or
<
lb
/>
taking away Lead from the Baſe, according as occaſion ſhall require.

a Rope, as many fathom long as the water is deep into which you

would deſcend, and ſomewhat more, as was ſaid in the preceding

Explanation. </

<
s

applied to the ſaid Model, it may be ſufficient to make it deſcend to

the bottome leiſurely, or ſwiftly, as he ſeeth cauſe who is to dive.

draw it eaſily upwards,
