ADd to the day of the Month the Epact and so many days more as are Moneths from March to the Moneth you are in including both Moneths and if they amount not to thirty that Sum shall be the Age of the Moon but if your number exceed thirty deduct thirty and what remains is the Moons Age. This is to be understood when the Moneth hath one and thirty days but if the Moneth hath but thirty days you must substract but twenty nine and the rest is the Age a foresaid For in those Moneths that have thirty-one days the New Moon or Conjunction is the thirtieth day of her Age and those Moneths that have but thirty days the New Moon falls on the twenty ninth day of her Age. Take an Example to make this plain Suppose I would know the Age of the Moon January the First 1675. current Now considering that the Epact changeth not till March I add the Epact of the foregoing year which is three and the day of the moneth one their sum is four and January being the eleventh Moneth accounted from March being also added amounts to fifteen which is the true Age of the Moon the said First day of January 1675. Et sic in aliis THe Number of the days in each Moneth are briefly summed up in these following Verses Thirty Days hath September April June and November February hath twenty-eight alone And all the rest have thirty one Note That in Leap-year which happens once in four years February hath twenty nine days By this preceding Almanack you may finde the day of the Moneth as also the moveable and immoveable Feasts for twenty years to come It s use is plain and obvious to a mean capacity and the day of the Moneth found by it as in other Almanacks knowing but the Dominical Letter Vulgar Notes and Observations to know when the Moon rises or sets c. 1. AT the New-Moon she riseth and setteth with the Sun 2. At the Full-Moon she rises when the Sun sets and sets when the Sun rises 3. At the beginning of the Increase she rises after Sun rising and sets after Sun set 4. At the beginning of the Decrease she rises a little after Sun-set and sets a little before his rising 5. In the first Quadrat of her Increase she rises about Noon or Mid-day and sets about Mid-night 6. In the Second Quadrat of her Decrease she rises at Mid-night and sets about Noon or Mid-day And hence may be computed near enough for common use the intermediate times of the Moons rising every day slower by one hour and about a fifth part viz. twelve minutes The Four Terms are as followeth HIllary Term begins January the twenty third and ends February the twelfth Easter Term begins Seventeen days after easter-Easter-day and ends the Munday before Whit-sunday Trinity Term begins next Friday after Trinity Sunday which is always the next after Whit sunday and ends on Wednesday nineteen days after Michaelmas Term begins on twenty third of October and end November the twenty eighth following FINIS
