Consisting

In the further continuation of the arts and machines with which water is raised from the depths or driven upwards;

Wherein are found both false and useless machines—in order to recognize the errors and causes thereof—as well as many useful and practical ones; but especially a clear instruction regarding those machines where water is raised by means of fire, Leupold refers here to early steam engines, such as those by Savery and Newcomen, which were often called "fire engines" at the time. including the very newest and undoubtedly the easiest method to be found;

To which is added:

A discourse or instruction on the water-arts, Water-Arts: A historical term for hydraulic engineering and the specialized machinery used to move water. regarding what is specifically to be observed in them, and how the Theater of Machines is to be used in this regard.
