1 _Amphiscy_ ([Greek: amphischioi]) whose shadow at noone day fall both waie, so to the North when the Sunne is Southward of them, & to the South when the Sunne is Northward, and such are those people that doe dwell in the hot Zone. For the Sunne goes ouer their heads twice a yeare, once Northward, another time Southward, when the Sunne is just ouer their heads they are called _Asoy_, [Greek: aschioi], without shadow. 2 _Heteroscy_ ([Greek: heteroschioi]) whose shadowes doe alwaies fall one way, namely alwaies towards the North, as those that dwell in the Northerne temperate Zone, or alwaies to the South, as those that dwell in the Southerne temperate Zone. 3 _Periscy_ ([Greek: perischioi]) whose shadowes goe round about them, as those people who dwell in the two cold Zones, for as the Sunne never goes downe to them after he is once vp, but alwaies round about, so doe their shadowes. 4 The fourth distinction is by the scituation of the Inhabitants of the Earth, compared on with another: who are called either. 1 Perioeci ([Greek: perioichoi]) such as dwell round about the Earth in one and the same paralell, as for example vnder the Tropicke of Cancer. 2 Antoeci ([Greek: antoichoi]) such as dwell opposite to the former in another Paralell of the same distance from the AEquator. As those vnder the Tropicke of Capricorne. 3 Antipodes ([Greek: antipodes]) who dwell iust vnder vs theire feete opposite to ours. 5 The fifth distinction is of the Length and Breadth of the Earth and places vpon it: these may bee considered two wayes 1 Absolutely, and so the { Longitude or Length of the Earth is its Circuit, and { Extension from East to west, { { Latitude or breadth of it, is the whole Circuit and { Compasse of it from North to South. 2 Comparatiuely: comparinge one places scituation with another, and so the { Longitud of a place, is the distance of it from the { first Meridian going through the Canary Ilands, { Eastward. Whereby wee know how farre one place lies { East or West from another. { { Latitude of a place, is the distance of it from the { AEquator towards the North or South. Whereby wee know { how farre one Place lies Northward, or Southward of { another. The Longitude must bee reckoned by the degrees of the AEquator, the Latitude by the degrees of the Meridian.
