Theater of Machines, Part 2

report on large and small water-levels instruments for surveying the horizontal is to be found, after which the leveling and conduction of water is treated, how the same can be used for all kinds of necessities through wheels, pumps, pressure- lifting- and syringe-mechanisms, according to the nature and opportunity of each place. All of this is explained so clearly here that not only can everyone understand it quite easily, but also, if one wishes to reflect further on the matters with diligence, one may find occasion to improve them. And as the fruits of the tree are far more lovely than the roots, so art becomes much more pleasant when its utility and use are proven and shown with the deed itself.

I have therefore presented here several magnificent machinas machines, new inventions of beautiful water-syringes, which, according to this description, can be
