And next vnder that line are these letters H. M. whiche signifie Houres and Mynutes Then hauyng in memory the age of the Moone as aforsaide go directly to the title of that place of the firmament to the which when the Moone commeth maketh a hyghe water and there you shall finde the Houre and Mynute when it is full Sea in that place ¶ Example ¶ I would knowe at what houre it wil be a full Sea or highe water at London Bridge the xx daye of December nexte beynge in the yere of our Lord 1571. ¶ Aunswer sp FIRST resorte to the former Table that teacheth you to knowe the age of the Moone at all tymes and by that rule you shal finde that the xx daye of December nexte the Moone shal be iiij dayes olde Then looke vpon the titles in the vppermost parte of the aforesayde Tables and amonge them you shall finde London And directely in the lyne nexte vnder the same you shal find Southwest the which declareth that when the Moone is in the Southwest that then it is ful sea at London Bridge Then go downe the lyne of the age of the Moone vntyl you come at the iiij daye and there you shall finde on the lefte hande of the same directely vnder the lyne where Southwest standeth these figures 6. 12. which is vj. of the clock and xij mynutes at whiche tyme the
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.

In this Calender you shal often times finde these letters B. and E.

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
aforesaid 20. daye of December nexte shall be highe water at London Bridge And in the vppermost parte of the aforesaid Tables I haue written the names of some Portes at whiche tyme the Moone comming to that place causeth a full Sea and vnto them ye may adde suche other as you haue or shall haue knowledge of A Table shewinge what Signe the Moone is in and shall be for euer and shewynge also the times good to let Blood to Purge and to Bathe Monethes Daes Prime The. 12.
