Luke or other dialists,
I am quite intrigued by the title of this old book:
> _Sciothericum Telescopicum or A New Contrivance of Adapting a
>Telescope to an Horizontal Dial_ by William Molyneaux, 1686

Does Molyneaux describe a sundial that is augmented by an optical system?  
Can you summarize this contraption?  Any claims for accuracy?
Finally, was the title reprinted in modern times?
thanks,
Peter
