Mr Harriot, when you were last in tonne you gave me thes two
followinge
which have assisted mee powerfullie in all Cubicke æquations, both to know
how manie and what the rootes
evre sine I left you, I have bine puslelinge to resolve that biqua-
drate æquation of the intercepted line I was in hand withall at Sion
wich drawe mee into the speculation of all biquadrate æquations, whence I
have spent all my time all my paper and all my witt and in
vaine. itaque for opem obsecro
doe but send mee some shorte instructions (such as above which you
gave me once for Cubicks) to signifie unto mee what comparisons
ther are betweene the partes of biquadrate æquations, when the
rootes are one, two, three, or four, æquall or unæquall. and then
leave mee to pusle anon. if you helpe mee not my three
months speculation, will perish
your sure friend Willm
