know both according to the old and new stile look on this table following where they are set the one by the other Golden Number 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 New Epact 1 12 23 4 15 26 7 18 29 10 21 2 13 24 5 16 27 8 19 Old Epact 11 22 3 14 25 6 17 28 9 20 1 12 23 4 15 26 7 18 29 The Epact being known you shall adde it to the number of the moneths that are past from March to the moneth you are in the same moneth being reckoned with it if this brings forth 30 then is it new moon the first day of the same moneth but as much as is lesse then 30. so many dayes you have to the new moon Example In the year 1641. I desire to know when the Moon shall be new in the moneth of August the Epact of that year is 18 adding to this 6. for the number of the moneths since March the moneth of August being included it makes 24 there want 6 to make it 30 therefore the Moon shall be new 6 dayes at this that is the 6 of August The Epact the number of the moneth past from March and the day of the moneth being added such a number or whatsoever it brings forth more then 30 it sheweth the age of the Moon The first Example To know the age of the Moon on the 12 of August 1645. I adde the Epact 2 to 6 the moneths past and 12 for the 12 dayes they make this 20 is the age of the Moon but this is to be understood after the new stile To finde out easily without casting up the time of the new Moon we have here adjoyned an Almanack for 8. years next ensuing calculated by the meridian of Amsterdam shewing the day and houre of every new and full Moon together with the quarters the use of it is thus by the Moon in every moneth there are two columnes of ciphers the first sheweth the day of the moneth the second the houres and minutes of the new and full Moon to reckon from the noone of the same day to the noone of the day following according to the use and custome of Astronomers Example I would know in the year 1645 in the moneth of July on what day and houre the moon will be new and I finde the new Moon on the 22 day 14 houres telling from noone tyde and this run to the next day in the morning at two of the clock To know what day of the week that will be you must first know the Dominicall letter of that year and with what letter each moneth beginneth the Sundayes letter you shall finde under the Almanack of each year the leap year hath two the first you shall use to the 24 of Februarie the other to the end of the year every moneth beginneth with such a letter as this table following sheweth Januarie begins with A Februarie D March D July begins with G August C Septem F April begins with G May B June E October begins with A November B December E For as much as July beginneth with a G you shall begin to tell forward to 5 and that fall out in E that is the third day after B the Dominicall letter of that year and so it will be wednesday and so in all the other In the Leap year you must tell both the 24. and 25 on F because the 25 day and 24 were added on F.

I finde in the yeere 1645 15 gr 48 min. and for the yeere 1655 15 degr 50 minut the minut having as much taken from them in proportion as the yeeres I finde 15 gr 49. min. increaseing declination The 15. Chapter how you may easily learne to know the fixed Starres and at what time every one of them commeth to the South HOw needfull and profitable it is for a Sea-faring man to have knowledge of the fixed starres and their use especially in strange voyages and farre Navigations that is more then well known to all experienced and understanding Steerman moreover because wee have described in the foregoing chapter the declination of the fixed stares and their distance from the Pole wee shall here shew you a way and fitting meanes how you shall easily learne to know them and that perfectly at all times when as every one of them come in the south or at their height and are fitting to be used First you must know that the way of the Sonn in the heaven is immoveable with the fixed Starres with the which it is every day once turned about from east to west without change but onely that the Sonne doth contrary wise run this foresayd yearely course from west to east Whereby hee in his daily course commeth so farr behind that hee in a whole yeare goeth one course lesse then the fixed Starres and that the fixed Starres turne once more about in a yeare then the Sunn so that they every day come 4 min. sooner to the division that commeth every weeke to about halfe an houre every month 2 houres which that it may the better bee understood wee will make it evident by an example taken from the starre called Syrius or Canis Major the great dogge which alwayes followeth a little after the Image of the Gyant Orion and his Girdle which is called the three Kings which appeare a little over the great Dogge it is the greatest and clearest of all the fixed Starres which for the most part is knowne unto all Sea-faring men his declination is Southward from the Line 16 degrees and 13 minutes And it is south upon the 24 of Ianuary new stile at ten of the clock at night The 23 of Februaty at 8 of the clock at night The 28 of March as six of the clock at night The 30 of April at foure of the clock in the evening The 30 of May at two of the clock afternoone The 28 of Iune at 12 of the clock at noone even with the Sun The 28 of Iuly at ten of the clocke before noone The 29 of August at eight of the clocke before noone The 1 of October at six of the clock in the morning The 12 of November at foure of the clock in the morning The 1 of December at two of the clock in the morning The 28 of December at 12 of the clock at night Whereby every man may easily reckon at what houre and time this Starre is south every day in the yeare as well in the day time when you cannot see it as in the night when wee may see it And if you desire to know the like touching all the rest of the fixed Starres upon every day in the yeare then marke what was said before upon what houre of the day before set downe the great Dogge commeth into the South and by the Tables hereafter following touching the declination of the Stars marke how long time the Starte you seeke for commeth into the South before or after the great Dogge by that meanes you shall finde the just and perfect time that you desire The 16 Point The Table of the declination of the fixed Stars and also an Instruction of the time in which each of them commeth into the south also how you shall know them The Twinnes The south and lowest head therof commeth 54 minutes after the great Dogge into the south and hath his
reckoned upon the Meridian or length of the earth from the westend of England Those which are more easterly from thence have the lesser declination when the Sun departeth from the Line and increaseth in declination either towards the North or South as wel betweene the 20 of March and the 22 of Iune as betweene the 23 of September and the 22 of December and the greater declination when the Sun returneth againe towards the Line whether it bee by north or by south the Line as wel betweene the 22 of December and the 20 of March as betweene the 22 of Iune and the 23 of December On the contrary those which are more westerly from thence have the waxing declination that is when the Sun runneth from the Line either by North or by South the Line the greater declination and the falling declination that is when the Sunne runneth againe towards the Line either by North or by South the Line maketh the lesse That commeth to passe by reason of time thus Those which are more easterly have the Sunne sooner in the south or in their Meridian and therefore is the waxing declination lesse and the falling greater on the contrary those which are more westerly have the Sonne later in the South and therefore have they the increasing declination more the decreasing lesse The first Example Concerning those which are more easterly with rising declination upon the 25 of March in the second yeare following the Leap-yeare I desire to know ●he Sonnes declination at noone at Bantam in the East-Indies First I seeke upon a Globe or any other Table how much more Easterly Bantam lyeth then the Lands end of England and I find it to bee about 120 degrees herein wee reckon not so neare upon a degree or two because such a difference is but little in this respect whilst then the Sonne must have 24 houres to run about the heaven or the whole earth which is 360 degrees I seeke how much time hee must have to run 120 degrees and I say thus 360 degrees ma●● 24 houres what maketh then 120 facit 8 houres 〈◊〉 thence I find that the Sunne commeth 8 houres sooner to the South at Bantam then at the Lands end of England that is That the Sunne is fall South at Bantam when it is but 4 a clock after midnight at Englands Lands end Then I looke in these Tables upon the abovewritten 25 of March for the declination of the Sun and I find it to bee 1 degree 57 minutes and out of the declination on the day following 2 degrees 21 minutes that the declination of the Sun at that time in 24 houres increaseth 24 minutes therefore say I if the declination increase 24 minutes in 24 houres how much in 8 houres facit 8 minutes from thence it is cleare that seeing the Sun runneth from the Meridian over Bantam to the Meridian of Englands end and the declination riseth or increaseth 8 minutes that it at Bantam is 8 minutes lesse as these Tables declare The Suns declination is that day at Bantam no more then 1 degree and 49 minutes by north the Line The Second Example With falling Declination Upon the 16 of the same yeare I desire to know the Suns declination at noone at Bantam and I find in these Tables upon that day for the length of England Lands end 2 degrees 40 minutes that it decreaseth every day at that time of the yeare 24 minutes Seeing then the Sun as is sayd in the first example cometh 8 houres sooner to the South at Bantam then at Englands end I say doth the declination decrease 24 minutes in 24 houres how much maketh it in 8 houres it maketh 8 minutes from thence it is knowne that seeing the Sonne runneth from the Meridian of Bantam to that of Englands End and the declination falleth 8 minutes and therefore at Bantam is it 8 minutes more even as these Tables declare The declination of the Sonne on that day is at Bantam 2 degrees and 48 minutes Observation From hence it followeth That one and the same Steer-man sayling eastwards to the Indies comming upon two such divers times before the Straite of Sunda and would take the height of the Pole according to the Sun of one and the same corner of Land and should use these Tables without such caution hee should though hee thought it wel done thereby taking one time 8 minutes soo much and the other time 8 minutes too little declination hee should find it to differ 16 minutes in his height therefore in long voyages you must thinke wel upon this The third Example Concerning those which are more Westerly with rising declination A certaine Ship comming upon the 9 of October in the third yeare after Leape-yeare upon the greate South Sea neare the Coast of Peru the Steerman desireth to know the Suns declination there at noone hee findeth out of a Globe or any other Table that that Coast lyeth full 80 degrees more Westerly then Englands Lands End The Sun must then run from the South over Englands end to the South of the foresaid Coast of Peru full 80 degrees to which hee requireth about 5 houres and an halfe so that when the Sun standeth there in the South it is then from Englands end halfe an houre past 5 in the afternone Hee findeth in these Tables the declination of that day 6 degrees 13 minutes by South the Line and out of that of the following day which is 6 degrees 36 minutes that at that time in 24 houres the declination riseth 23 min. therefore shall hee say the declination riseth in 24 houres 33 minutes how much then in 5 houres and a ½ facit full 5 minutes and from thence wee find that seeing the Sun running from the Meridian of Englands end to hert of the Coast of Peru riseth full 5 minutes and thereupon the declination on that day is there 5 minutes more even as the tables demonstrate The declination then on that day on the Coast of Peru is 6 degrees 18 minutes The fourth Example Concerning the falling declination Suppose that such commeth to passe on the foresaid Coast of Peru on the 8 of September the same yeare these tables point at the declination of that day 5 degrees 46 minutes and the day following 5 degrees 23 minutes so as upon that time of the yeare in 24 houres time the declination lesseneth 23 minutes The Steerman shal then reckon thus if in 24 houres the declination lesseneth 23 minutes how much is that in 5 houres and a halfe facit full 5 minutes and shall from thence find that his declination is there 5 minutes lesse as these Tables instruct the Sonnes declination then upon that day is upon the Coast of Peru 5 degrees 42 minutes from hence may bee understood what it is which before is said in the example of the more easterly that a Steereman whe would looke after the Sun on the Coast of Peru upon such two divers times in the same place
