the .xvij. day of Nouember next it shal be sithen the .iij. yere of kynge Iohn 370. yeres and thus of the lyke 3. Question An Euidence dated the second Sonday in Lent in the .iiii. yere of kinge Stephin I would know in what yere of our Lord the same was and also in what Monthe and on what daye the seconde Sonday in Lent was then Aunswere First looke among the kinges for king Stephyn And when you haue found him then looke for the .iiij. yere of his reigne and there you shall finde the yeere of our lorde to be 1138. and the Prime 18. and B. the Sondaies letter Then go to the table that teacheth to knowe Easter day and al the moueable feastes whiche is the nexte Table before the Computacion And there vnder the title of Prime seeke among those nombers for 18. And when you haue founde it loke downward from the lyne where the Prime standeth and seeke for the next B. whiche that yere was the Sondaies letter And when you haue founde B. go forwarde in that lyne and there you shall finde the .xx. daye of February to be that yere the first Sonday in Lent and thervnto put .vij. dayes for one weeke more and that sheweth that the seconde Sonday in Lent that yere was the 27. day of February Then set down this present yere of our Lord. 1571. and take out therof the yere of our Lord that was then whiche was 1138. and there resteth 433. And so it doth plainely appere that the. 27. day of February next comming it shal be 433. yeres-sithen the .iiii. yere of the reigne of kinge Stephyn And thus you may do with the lyke 4. Question I haue a lease for .lxxx. yeeres that began at Mighelmas in the. 17. yere of king Henry the .vij. My desire is to knowe this present yere 1571. whether my lease be expired or how many yeres I haue to com Aunswere First in the Computacion loke among the kinges for king Henry the .vij. then for the. 17. yere of his reigne whiche you shall finde to be in the yeere of our Lorde 1501. The whiche nomber take out of this present yere of our Lord. 1571. and then resteth 70. so many yeres of the said lease shall be expyred at Mighelmas nexte and then shall remayne 10. yeres to come and so of the lyke 5 ¶ An other Question and playne example meete for suche as can not extracte one nomber out of an other A Lease dated the vj. of Iulij in the. 31. yere of the reigne of kyng Henry the .viij. for the terme of xl yeres that began at our Lady daye in Lent then next folowinge I woulde now knowe whether the sayde lease be expyred or how many yeres there are to come Aunswere Fyrst loke in the Computacion among the kynges for kinge Henry the .viij. and for the. 31. yere of his reigne whiche you shall fynde to be in the yere of our Lorde 1539. Then at the next yere folowinge begin to recon and call that one and so tel downe in order all the yeeres folowinge and ende with this present yere 1571 And in the whole you shall finde the nomber of 32. And so many yeres of the sayde lease shal be expired at our lady day in lent next comming And at that time there shal remaine to come of the saide lease .viij. yeres and thus you may accompte the yeres of any lease 6 An other very plaine question or example easye for all men to conceaue and in this time is commonly vsed A lease dated the 17. daye of August in the v. yere of the reigne of kyng Edward the .vj. for the terme of xxj yeres whiche began at Mighelmas then next folowing I aske the question this xij day of August 1571. whether the saide lease be expired or howe many yeres are yet to come Aunswere Fyrst in the Computacion amonge the kinges seke for king Edward the vj. and for the v. yere of his reigne and there you shall finde the yere of our lorde to be 1550. Then begyn at the next yere after which is 1551. and call that one and so tel downwarde all the yeres to this presente yeere 1571. And in the whole you shall finde 21. whiche plainely declareth that at Mighelmas next the aforesaid terme of 21. yeres shall be fully expired And this you maye do in the accompt of all termes of yeres Note also that in the said Computacion diuerse of the kings haue in the first yere of their reigne no yere of our Lorde The cause is that they began in the same yere that the former kinge dyed in And therefore when you tell the yeeres do not recken them that haue no yere of our Lorde Note also that the yere of our lord after the Computacion of the Church of England beginneth euer the. 25. day of March which is the daye of the Annunciacion of our Lady And the nomber of the Epacte beginneth euer the firste daye of Marche and the Prime the fyrst daye of Ianuary Note also that when thou accompteste any terme of yeeres that the same terme that thy lease first beganne in must ende fynishe in the last yere of thy reconynge at the selfe same terme As if thy lease began at Myghelmas for .xxj. yeres then it muste ende at Mighelmas the same yeere that the whole .xxj. yeres are expired in if at Midsomer then it must ende at Midsomer the same yere as the last question and example dothe playnely shewe And this I trust may suffyce for the instruction of the vse order and commodytie of the saide Computacion Then foloweth .iiij. Tables that teache for euer to know in most Portes and Hauens of this Realme when it is ful Sea with a plaine declaraciō of the said tables And fynally one other Table shewing for euer what signe the Mone is and shall be in euery daye and declareth also what dayes are good to let Blood Pourge or Bathe c. And hereunto I haue added the Month daye and place of all the Faires kept in England set forth in a more orderly maner then heretofore hath ben And fynally in the later ende hereof is set out the waies in a larger maner then before they haue ben as well how a man maye trauell from any notable towne in England to the Citie of Lōdon as from London to any notable towne or from one notable town to an other in the most partes of this Realme So that herein are conteyned the chiefe and moste necessary things that pertaine to any mans trauel FINIS January hath 31. daies Sonne ryseth Houre 7. 34 .mi. setteth 4. 26 .mi.

⧠A litle treatise conteyning many proper Tables and rules very necessary for the vse of al men The contentes wherof appere in the next page folowing ¶ Collected and set forthe by Richard Grafton 1571. ¶ LONDINI In aedibus Richardi Tottelli Cum priuilegio ad imprimendum solum ¶ THE CONTENTES OF this Booke ¶ Fyrst a Preface wherein is declared theffect of all the matters herein conteyned ¶ A Calender very necessary for the vse of this Booke ¶ An Almanack for .lx. yeres yet to come wher in you may readely fynde Easter Rogacion and whitsonday ¶ A Table or Rondell wherein you maye at all tymes readely fynde the yere of our lord The Epact The Prime The Dominical letter and the Leape yere for euer ¶ A Rule at all tymes to know the Age of the Moone her chaunge and full for euer ¶ A Table wherby to find for euer the feastes of Easter and all other moueable feastes as wel those that haue ben as all suche as are to come ¶ A newe and more briefe Computacion of the yeres of our Lorde agreing with the yeres of the reignes of all the kynges of this Realme sithen the Conquest whereby readely you may finde the yere of our Lorde the Prime Epact The Sondaies letter the Leape yere the beginning of euery kynges reigne and the nomber of yeres that he reigned and also may quickly vnderstande the accompte of the yeres of any Euidence ¶ A Table to knowe the Ebbes and Floods in most Portes and Hauens in Englande ¶ A Table declaringe what signe the Moone shal be in any day of the yere for euer and also whē it is good to let blood to Bathe or to Pourge ¶ All the Principall Faires in a more orderlye maner then hath ben heretofore set forthe ¶ The highe wayes also from one towne to another moche larger then before hath ben set forth THE PREFACE THE order of this small Booke the matters therin conteyned are as foloweth ¶ FIRST I haue placed herein a Calender wherein I haue obserued the olde Saynctes dayes not of supersticion as thoughe I thought euery of them mencioned in the saide Calender to be a saincte for of some I know the contrarye Neyther if they were all saynctes do I therfore place them in my Calender But because it hath bene a custome of aūcient time to vse their names in signifiynge and makinge certayne the dayes tymes and termes of the yere as by the dating of diuerse olde Deedes Euidences and Recordes it wil apere And because the same custome is yet retayned in the retorning of writtes and processes and also is commonly vsed in the notinge and settyng forth of the principall Faires and Markettes other seasons of the yere those names serue well for my purpose therfore I mighte not conueniently haue left them out And vnto the said Calender I haue added the Calendes Nonas and Ides because diuerse euidences are dated on those daies and by those wordes And therunto also I haue added the vigiles and festiuall daies with the trewe time of the Termes and their returnes because that hauyng this booke there shal be no occasion to call for any other Calender And finally in the ende of the saide Calender I haue set forth an Almanacke for lx yeeres yet to come wherein is shewed the first Sonday in Lent Caster day Rogacion weke Whitsonday and by them you may finde al other moueable feastes NEXT AFTER the Almanacke is a Table or Rondell that teacheth for euer readely to finde the yeres of our Lord the Epact the Pryme the Dominicall letter and the Leape yere with a declaracion of the vse of the same Table AND also a rule to knowe the age of the Moone her Chaunge and Full for euer Then foloweth a Table to finde the feastes of Easter and so all other the moueable feastes that haue bene in tyme past or shall be hereafter for euer with a playne instruction of the vse and vnderstandinge thereof THEN begynneth my Computacion of yeres wherin is to be noted that euery page therof is deuyded into eyghte seuerall partes or places as may appere by the tytles ouer euery of their heades In the fyrste place are the yeres of our lorde In the second the Pryme In the thyrde the Epact In the fourth the Dominicall letter In the fifthe the leape yere when so euer it happeneth In the sixte are the names of the kinges as they reigned beginning with Williā the Conquerour c. And in the same place also are the Monethes that euery of them entred into theyr reignes And in the seuenth are the daies of the Monthes that euery of them began to reigne in And in the .viij. and last are the yeres that euery of them reigned Also in the ende of the reigne of euerye kynge I haue shewed the day of his death if he died beinge kyng or the daye of his deposicion if he were deposed with a true accompte howe many yeres Monethes weekes or dayes he reigned ¶ AND HERE I thincke it mete to declare somewhat of the commoditie and necessarye vse of the Computacion afore mencioned And for the better instruction and vnderstandynge thereof I wyll moue certayne questions and geue aunsweres to the same in suche sorte as shall so vtter the order and maner therof as it were by examples that I doubt not but the trewe and necessary vse of the same shall playnely appere to all men 1. Question I wold know by this Computacion in the fourth yere of king Edward the first what was then the yere of our Lorde the Prime the Epact Dominicall letter and the Monthe and daye that he beganne his reigne in and what day in the weeke the same was Aunswere Amonge the kinges seke out for kynge Edwarde the first and then looke for the fourth yere of his reigne and there it appereth to be the yere of our Lord. 1275. The Prime 3. The Epact 18. The Dominical letter F. The Monethe that he began his reigne in Nouember the. 16. day which day that yere was Saterday as is easy to be knowen if you looke in the Calēder for the .xvj. daye of Nouember accomptyuge F. for Sonday then that day must nedes be Saterday and so of all other the lyke 2. Question An Euidence dated the. 15. Calendes of December in the .iij. yere of kinge Iohn I wolde knowe what daye of the Monthe the same was and howe long it is sithen Aunswere First loke in the Calender in the Month of Nouember for the Calendes of Decēber and there you shall finde that the .xv. Calendes of December is on the .xvij. day of Nouember Then seeke in the Computacion for kinge Iohn and you shall fynde that the thirde yeere of his reigne was in the yere of our Lorde 1201. And then sette downe this yere of our lorde wherein the question is asked whiche is 1571. and take out therof 1201. and there resteth 370. And so it must followe that vpon
In this Calender you shal often times finde these letters B. and E. The whiche signifie suche dayes as the Egypcians note to be dangerous to begyn or take any thing in hand as to take a Iorney or any suche thing ¶ A Table wherin thou mayst readely fynde the Epact the Prime or Golden nombre the Dominicall Letter and the Leape yere for euer ¶ A declaracion of this Rundell and Circles in the same FYRST NOTE that in the foresayde Rundell are v. Circles and in the vppermost Circle are placed the yeres of our Lorde the whiche you muste firste looke for before you seeke for any of the other matters After you haue founde the yere of our Lorde then in the nexte Circle vnder that is the Epact of that yere and the Circle nexte vnder that is the Pryme or Golden nomber of that yere And in the next Circle vnder that is the Dominicall letter of that yere And if it be leape yere then the same stādeth right vnder the Dominicall letter in the nethermost Circle ¶ The Epact AND HERE note that the Epact kepeth continually a course of .xxx. yeres by putting to euery yere .xj. and takynge awaye euer the nomber of xxx and what soeuer remaineth more then xxx the same is the Epact for that yere As for example the Epact this present yere of our Lorde 1571. is 4. And the next yere that is to say the first day of Marche for euer the nomber of the Epact chaungeth the firste daye of Marche And then I put .xj. to my 4. that was this yeere and that maketh .xv. whiche shal be the Epact the firste daye of Marche next comming and so shall continue al that yere vntil March come again and then put a xj more to the nomber that was before and it shal be xxvj which likewise shal continue al that yere vntil Marche folowing and then put to xxvj a xj more and that maketh xxvij which nomber of xxx you must put away and then resteth vij for the Epact of that yere And when soeuer the nomber of the Epact is ful xxx then is there no Epact that yere ALSO NOTE as I said before that the course of the Epact cōtinueth 30. yere and the very same nomber that is the Epact this yere shal be the Epact again xxx yeres hence as thou maist easely perceiue by the aforesaide Circle which setteth out the whole course of the Epact for 30. yere and then beginneth again as it began before and so it is a perfect nōber for euer ¶ The Prime or Golden nomber THE Prime is a nomber that begynneth with one and yerely increaceth one vntyll it come to the nomber of .xix. and then it beginneth againe one c. So that euery .xix. yere is the whole course of the Prime or Golden nomber for euer ¶ The Dominicall letter THE Dominicall or Sondayes letter kepeth his course 28. yere And the same letter that is Sondayes letter this yeere shal be the Sondaies letter 28. yere hence And so haue you the rule to find the Sondaies letter for euer ¶ The Leape yeere THE leape yere as you may perceaue by the former nethermost Circle chaunceth euery iiij yere And euer when thou mayest deuide the yere of our Lorde euen in iiij partes then is it leape yeere And thus you haue a full and perfecte declaracion of the former rundell and the Circles therein conteyned A Rule to knowe at all tymes the Age of the Moone her chaunge and ful IF YOV desyre at any tyme to knowe how olde the Moone is Firste consider what day of the Month it is that you wold knowe the age of the Moone And then know what nōber the Epact is that yere and put them together then accompt how many Monthes the same is frō the Month of Marche and recon Marche for one and then put all together and se what nomber that maketh If the nomber be more then 30. take out the 30. and looke what resteth and so many daies olde the Mone is But if it be iust 30. then you maye be sure that the same day the Mone chaunged or was the first daie of the Mone And if the nomber be lesse then 30. what so euer it be so many daies olde is the Mone And for the better vnderstanding hereof I will geue you an example or twayne ¶ Example I wolde knowe the .xv. day of December next cōming 1571. how olde the Moone wil be First I haue in memory this nomber .xv. and streyght I put thereunto the nomber of the Epact this yere which is 4. and that maketh 19. then I put so manye Monthes thereunto as is from Marche to December and recon Marche for the first and December for the laste and they are x. the whiche I put to my aforesayd nomber 19. which in the whole maketh 29. and so many dayes olde shall the Mone be the 15. daye of December next ANOTHER example I wold know the 19. daye of September next comminge 1571. how old the Mone shal be First I put in Memory 19. which is the day I aske the question of and I put therunto the Epact of this yere whiche is 4. and that maketh 23. and thereunto I put so many Monthes as is from Marche to September and reken Marche for one as I dyd in the laste example and that is 7. Monthes whiche nombers beinge put altogether make 30. and that day the Mone changeth or is the fyrst day of the Mone And thus of al other The yere when there is no Epact which as you may perceiue by the former Table chaunceth euery xxx yere then alwayes that yere the Mone changeth the first day of Marche And all that yere you shall reken for the age of the Mone the day of the Month and so many Monthes as is from Marche and that is the age of the Moone for that yere Nowe when you know the chaunge of the Mone put thereunto 7. and there beginneth the fyrst quarter and the. 15. daye is full Mone and. 7. daies more beginneth the last quarter And thus ye may readely and quickelye reken vppon your fingers and finde the newe Mone full Mone and the age of the Mone at any time for euer And when you haue the former rule in perfecte memorye then maye you at any time tell when it is full sea or lowe water namely here in the ryuer of Thames at London bridge as thus Knowe for a certaintie that euery change of the Mone and euery full Mone maketh a hyghe water or full sea at London Bridge at iij. of the clocke eyther in the mornyng or at after none and then may you reken so many daies from the change to the ful Mone whiche is 15. dayes and accompt the tide to encreace euery daye one houre whiche is xv houres and then abate xv quarters for in a daye are two tydes a flood and an Ebbe they bothe alter scant iij. quarters of an houre except stormes and
tempestes cause the contrary and so you may from daye to daye where so euer you are knowe the certeintie of the tyde at Lōdon Bridge And the better to leade you vnto the vnderstanding herof take this exāple I would know the xij of Septēber next 1571. at what tyme it shal be high water at London Bridge First I resort to my former rule and serche how many dayes old the Moone wyll be that day I finde that the Moone shal be 23. dayes olde and then I consider that the 15. daye whiche day the Moone was at the ful it was highe water at 3. of the clock then for viij dayes more I adde for euery daye thre quarters of an houre and that is vj houres which I put to 3. of the clock and that maketh 9. of the clock at whiche houre shal be a highe water and then tell from ix of the clock vij houres more that maketh iiij of the clock and then shal it be a dead lowe water and thus of all other for euer On the other syde of this leafe foloweth a Table whiche sheweth howe you may readely finde Easter and all other moueable feastes of the yere for euer as well for tymes past as for the times to come Prime Sonday Letter First Sō day Lēt Easter Roga cion whitson daye 16  Februa Marche April Maye 5 d 8 22 26 10  e 9 23 27 11 13 f 10 24 28 12 2 g 11 25 29 13  A 12 26 30 14 10 b 13 27 Maye 1. 15  c 14 28 2 16 18 d 15 29 3 17 7 e 16 30 4 18  f 17 31 5 19 15 g 18 April 1. 6 20 4 A 19 2 7 21  b 20 3 8 22 12 c 21 4 9 23 1 d 22 5 10 24  e 23 6 11 25 9 f 24 7 12 26  g 25 8 13 27 17 A 26 9 14 28 6 b 27 10 15 29  c 28 11 16 30 14. d March. 1 12 17 31 3 e 2 13 18 Iune 1.  f 3 14 19 2 11 g 4 15 20 3  A 5 16 21 4 19 b 6 17 22 5 8 c 7 18 23 6  d 8 19 24 7  e 9 20 25 8  t 10 21 26 9  g 11 22 27 10  A 12 23 28 11  b 13 24 29 12  c 14 25 30 13 ¶ A descripcion of the ordre and vse of the aforesaid Table as foloweth FIrst note that the sayd Table is deuided into sixe partes or places In the first is the Prime in the secōd the Dominical letter in the thirde the first Sōday in Lent in the fourth Easter daye in the fifth Rogacion weeke and in the sixte Whitsondaye And for the better vnderstandinge of the vse therof ye must alwayes when you desyre to knowe the tyme of any of the saide Feastes firste consider what yere of the Lorde it is that you woulde knowe them in and then looke what was or is the Prime of that yere and the Dominical letter and those may you easely finde and learne in the little roundeale that is before set forth And when you know the Prime and Sondayes letter thē come to this Table and it will easely shewe you your desire ¶ Example I would knowe in the yere of our Lorde 1574. when shall be the firste Sondaye in Lent Easter daye c.
