22. same CPI; s_e_c_on_de AB. The reading _same_ is right; for the 'latitude of a climate' means the breadth of a zone of the earth, and the latitude of the first climate (here chosen by way of example) is the breadth as measured along a great circle perpendicular to the equator, from the beginning of the said first climate to the end of _the same_. The words 'evene-directe agayns the poole Artik' mean in the direction of the North pole; i.e. the latitude of a climate is reckoned from its beginning, or _southernmost_ boundary-line, towards the end of the same, viz. its _northern_ boundary-line. 22. þe poole Artik P; þe pool artyke C; the pole artike I; from north to south AB. Observe that this singular error in A, 'euene direct_e_ agayns from north to south,' probably arose from a confusion of the text 'euene direct_e_ agayns þe poole Artik' with a gloss upon it, which was 'from north to south.' It is important as throwing light on the meaning of the phrase, and proving that the interpretation of it given above (note to l. 22) is correct. 24. intercept CP; intercepte I; except (_over an erasure_) AB. The only reading about which there is any doubt is that in line 18, which may be either 'illike distant by-twene them alle' (A), or 'I-like distaunte fro þe equinoxial' (C). But it is immaterial which reading be adopted, since _Illike-distant_ is here used merely in the sense of _parallel_, and the boundaries of the climates are parallel both to one another, and to the equinoctial. The climates themselves were of different breadths. § 40, l. 4. this samples AB; þese ensamples C. 5. for sothe] _miswritten_ for sonne AB; in gen_er_al C; yn special P; _the reading_ sonne _points to_ sothe, _and makes it very probable that_ for sothe _is the true reading_. 6. the longitude] þe longitude C; latitude AB (_absurdly_); see l. 11. 7. planete; _miswritten_ that A, _but corrected_ to planete _in the margin_; C _has_ planete, _correctly_.
