worse_a of_o the_o two_o yet_o not_o so_o bad_a but_o that_o our_o dissent_v brethren_n have_v i_o hope_v some_o better_a argument_n to_o justify_v their_o nonconformity_n than_o what_o i_o see_v publish_v in_o a_o little_a book_n without_o any_o name_n to_o it_o concern_v two_o easters_n in_o one_o year_n by_o the_o general_n table_n say_v this_o learned_a man_n who_o ow_v the_o feast_n of_o easter_n be_v to_o be_v observe_v anno_fw-la 1674._o upon_o the_o 19_o day_n of_o april_n so_o the_o almanac_n for_o that_o year_n as_o well_o as_o the_o general_n table_n set_v before_o the_o book_n of_o common_a prayer_n but_o by_o the_o rule_n in_o the_o say_a book_n of_o common_a prayer_n give_v the_o feast_n of_o easter_n shall_v have_v be_v upon_o the_o twelve_o of_o april_n for_o easter-day_n must_v always_o be_v the_o first_o sunday_n after_o the_o first_o full_a moon_n which_o happen_v next_o after_o the_o one_o and_o twenty_o day_n of_o march_n and_o if_o the_o full_a moon_n happen_v upon_o a_o sunday_n easter-day_n be_v the_o sunday_n after_o now_o in_o the_o year_n 1674._o the_o 19_o of_o april_n be_v friday_n be_v full_a moon_n therefore_o by_o this_o rule_n easter-day_n shall_v be_v the_o twelve_o and_o by_o the_o table_n and_o the_o common_a almanac_n april_v the_o ten_o but_o this_o learned_a man_n must_v know_v that_o the_o mistake_n be_v in_o himself_o and_o not_o in_o the_o rule_n or_o table_n set_v down_o in_o the_o book_n of_o common_a prayer_n for_o if_o he_o please_v to_o look_v into_o the_o calendar_n he_o will_v find_v that_o the_o golden_a number_n three_o which_o be_v the_o golden_a number_n for_o that_o year_n be_v place_v against_o the_o last_o day_n of_o march_n and_o therefore_o according_a to_o the_o suppose_a motion_n of_o the_o moon_n that_o day_n be_v new_a moon_n and_o then_o the_o full_a moon_n will_v fall_v upon_o the_o fourteen_o day_n of_o april_n and_o not_o upon_o the_o ten_o and_o so_o by_o consequence_n the_o sunday_n follow_v the_o first_o full_a moon_n after_o the_o 21_o day_n of_o march_n be_v the_o nineteen_o of_o april_n and_o not_o the_o twelve_o and_o thus_o the_o rule_n and_o the_o table_n in_o the_o book_n of_o common_a prayer_n for_o find_v the_o feast_n of_o easter_n be_v reconcile_v and_o when_o authority_n shall_v think_v sit_v the_o calendar_n may_v be_v correct_v and_o all_o the_o movable_a feast_n be_v observe_v upon_o the_o day_n and_o time_n at_o first_o appoint_v but_o till_o that_o be_v a_o great_a difference_n than_o one_o week_n will_v be_v find_v in_o the_o feast_n of_o easter_n between_o the_o observation_n thereof_o according_a to_o the_o moon_n true_a motion_n and_o that_o upon_o which_o the_o table_n be_v ground_v for_o by_o the_o father_n of_o the_o nicene_n council_n it_o be_v appoint_v that_o the_o feast_n of_o easter_n shall_v be_v observe_v upon_o the_o sunday_n follow_v the_o first_o full_a moon_n after_o the_o vernal_a equinox_n which_o then_o indeed_o be_v the_o 21_o of_o march_n but_o now_o the_o ten_o and_o in_o the_o year_n 1674._o wednesday_n the_o 11_o of_o march_n be_v full_a moon_n and_o therefore_o by_o this_o rule_n easter-day_n shall_v have_v be_v upon_o march_n the_o fifteen_o whereas_o according_a to_o the_o rule_n we_o go_v by_o it_o be_v not_o till_o april_n the_o nineteen_o the_o table_n of_o the_o sun_n and_o moon_n middle_a motion_n be_v neither_o make_v according_a to_o the_o usual_a sexagenary_a form_n nor_o according_a to_o the_o usual_a degree_n of_o a_o circle_n and_o decimal_n part_n but_o according_a to_o a_o circle_n divide_v into_o 100_o degree_n and_o part_n and_o this_o i_o think_v good_a to_o do_v to_o give_v the_o world_n a_o taste_n of_o the_o excellency_n of_o decimal_a number_n which_o if_o a_o canon_n of_o sines_n and_o tangent_n be_v fit_v to_o it_o will_v be_v find_v much_o better_o as_o to_o the_o compute_v the_o place_n of_o the_o planet_n but_o as_o to_o the_o primum_fw-la mobile_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o general_a divide_v a_o circle_n into_o 360_o degree_n i_o shall_v think_v such_o a_o canon_n with_o the_o decimal_n part_v most_o convenient_a and_o in_o some_o case_n the_o common_a sexagenary_a canon_n may_v be_v very_o useful_a and_o indeed_o shall_v wish_v and_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o have_v all_o print_v together_o one_o table_n of_o logarithm_n will_v serve_v they_o all_o and_o two_o such_o canon_n one_o for_o the_o study_n and_o another_o for_o the_o pocket_n will_v be_v sufficient_a for_o all_o mathematical_a book_n in_o that_o kind_n and_o then_o man_n may_v use_v they_o all_o or_o either_o of_o they_o as_o they_o shall_v have_v occasion_n or_o as_o every_o one_o be_v persuade_v in_o his_o own_o mind_n what_o i_o have_v do_v in_o this_o particular_a as_o it_o be_v for_o my_o own_o satisfaction_n so_o i_o be_o apt_a to_o believe_v that_o it_o will_v be_v please_v to_o many_o other_o and_o although_o i_o shall_v leave_v every_o one_o to_o abound_v in_o his_o own_o sense_n yet_o i_o can_v think_v that_o custom_n shall_v be_v such_o a_o tyrant_n as_o to_o force_v we_o always_o to_o use_v the_o sexagenary_a form_n if_o so_o i_o wonder_v that_o man_n do_v not_o always_o use_v the_o natural_a canon_n if_o no_o alteration_n may_v be_v admit_v what_o reason_n can_v be_v give_v for_o the_o use_n of_o logarithm_n and_o if_o that_o be_v find_v more_o ready_a than_o the_o natural_a in_o thing_n of_o this_o kind_n where_o none_o but_o particular_a student_n be_v concern_v i_o shall_v think_v it_o reasonable_a to_o reduce_v all_o thing_n hereafter_o into_o that_o form_n which_o shall_v be_v find_v most_o ready_a and_o exact_a now_o the_o part_n proportional_a in_o the_o artificial_a sin_n and_o tangent_n in_o the_o three_o first_o degree_n can_v be_v well_o take_v by_o the_o common_a difference_n and_o the_o way_n of_o find_v they_o otherwise_o will_v not_o be_v so_o easy_a in_o the_o sexagenary_a canon_n as_o in_o either_o of_o the_o other_o and_o this_o i_o think_v shall_v render_v that_o canon_n which_o divide_v each_o degree_n into_o 100_o part_n more_o acceptable_a but_o thus_o to_o retain_v the_o use_n of_o sines_n degree_n and_o decimal_a part_n do_v not_o to_o i_o seem_v convenient_a and_o to_o reckon_v up_o a_o planet_n middle_a motion_n by_o whole_a circle_n will_v sometime_o cause_v a_o division_n of_o degree_n by_o 60_o which_o have_v some_o trouble_n in_o it_o also_o but_o if_o a_o circle_n be_v divide_v into_o 100_o degree_n this_o inconvenience_n be_v avoid_v and_o be_v there_o no_o other_o reason_n to_o be_v give_v this_o i_o think_v shall_v make_v such_o a_o canon_n to_o be_v desirable_a but_o till_o i_o can_v find_v a_o opportunity_n of_o publish_v such_o a_o one_o i_o shall_v forbear_v to_o show_v any_o further_a use_n of_o it_o and_o for_o what_o be_v want_v here_o in_o this_o subject_n i_o therefore_o refer_v thou_o to_o mr._n street_n astronomia_fw-la carolina_n and_o the_o several_a book_n write_v in_o english_a by_o mr._n wing_n the_o four_o part_n of_o this_o treatise_n be_v a_o introduction_n unto_o geography_n in_o which_o i_o have_v give_v general_a

with_o such_o other_o particular_n as_o will_n be_v find_v useful_a unto_o such_o as_o shall_v be_v willing_a to_o understand_v history_n in_o which_o three_o thing_n be_v require_v the_o time_n
