both_o the_o year_n of_o the_o world_n and_o the_o year_n of_o the_o lord_n at_o one_o time_n viz._n about_o the_o vernal_a aequinocticall_a refuse_v the_o new_a stile_n and_o computation_n from_o

not_o to_o the_o true_a incarnation_n of_o christ_n by_o one_o whole_a year_n but_o that_o it_o begin_v at_o the_o feast_n of_o his_o incarnation_n which_o be_v in_o the_o first_o year_n of_o his_o

christ_n have_v be_v bear_v and_o circumcise_a too_o a_o quarter_n of_o a_o year_n before_o he_o be_v conceive_v be_v it_o not_o that_o they_o by_o this_o their_o computation_n will_v give_v we_o to_o understand_v that_o there_o be_v lose_v a_o whole_a year_n of_o the_o lord_n which_o they_o will_v regain_v and_o restore_v by_o begin_v their_o computation_n from_o his_o incarnation_n a_o just_a year_n after_o his_o true_a incarnation_n that_o be_v at_o the_o feast_n of_o his_o incarnation_n or_o annunciation_n next_o after_o his_o nativity_n but_o the_o state_n of_o pisa_n have_v the_o

those_o place_n where_o any_o of_o the_o other_o computation_n be_v use_v perhaps_o it_o will_v seem_v good_a and_o convenient_a as_o not_o unlikely_a it_o do_v to_o blondus_n not_o to_o alter_v their_o account_n and_o style_v ancient_a though_o erroneus_fw-la but_o rather_o to_o keep_v and_o retain_v the_o vulgar_a and_o usual_a computation_n both_o in_o their_o public_a and_o private_a act_n because_o the_o alteration_n thereof_o will_v breed_v some_o confusion_n in_o their_o record_n and_o evidence_n but_o yet_o it_o be_v necessary_a for_o the_o studious_a in_o history_n to_o be_v acquaint_v herewith_o and_o to_o understand_v the_o difference_n of_o computation_n in_o the_o world_n of_o this_o point_n i_o have_v be_v the_o large_a partly_o because_o the_o author_n of_o our_o last_o great_a chronicle_n in_o his_o description_n of_o england_n li._n 3._o ca._n 14._o make_v this_o a_o great_a scruple_n to_o use_v his_o own_o term_n and_o so_o leave_v it_o conclude_v that_o with_o we_o christ_n be_v bear_v before_o he_o be_v conceive_v and_o partly_o because_o i_o remember_v this_o doubt_n be_v move_v to_o a_o man_n of_o manifold_a learning_n and_o of_o great_a read_n and_o judgement_n as_o any_o in_o this_o land_n who_o do_v answer_v it_o by_o a_o distinction_n of_o annus_fw-la nativitatis_fw-la and_o annus_fw-la actatis_fw-la which_o distinction_n i_o have_v read_v in_o jacobus_n phillippus_n bergomensis_n chronic._n li._n 8._o where_o he_o labour_v by_o that_o mean_a to_o take_v away_o all_o doubt_n about_o the_o year_n of_o the_o baptism_n and_o passion_n of_o christ_n and_o first_o he_o put_v a_o difference_n between_o the_o usual_a year_n and_o the_o emergent_a year_n which_o emergent_a year_n a_o quovis_fw-la rei_fw-la eventu_fw-la

we_o account_v the_o year_n of_o the_o lord_n two_o way_n either_o by_o his_o nativity_n or_o by_o his_o age_n whereupon_o christ_n be_v bear_v in_o the_o end_n of_o the_o usual_a year_n he_o mean_v of_o the_o roman_n he_o have_v of_o the_o last_o year_n of_o his_o nativity_n but_o only_o 7_o day_n but_o the_o first_o year_n of_o his_o age_n from_o the_o 25_o day_n of_o december_n wherein_o he_o be_v bear_v to_o that_o day_n twelvemonth_n be_v end_v in_o the_o second_o year_n of_o his_o nativity_n and_o so_o he_o accomplish_v two_o year_n of_o his_o nativity_n after_o the_o usual_a year_n

42_o year_n etc._n etc._n this_o difference_n i_o think_v good_a to_o allege_v because_o it_o may_v serve_v the_o historician_n to_o many_o good_a purpose_n as_o namely_o it_o open_v and_o declare_v the_o meaning_n of_o oroseus_fw-la where_o he_o say_v anno_fw-la augusti_fw-la 42_o prope_fw-la emenso_fw-la christus_fw-la natus_fw-la est_fw-la as_o before_o i_o expound_v it_o as_o for_o the_o

take_v the_o common_a and_o vulgar_a computation_n of_o christ_n to_o be_v secundum_fw-la nativitatem_fw-la after_o his_o nativity_n than_o indeed_o the_o second_o year_n of_o christ_n secundùm_fw-la nativitatem_fw-la must_v begin_v before_o the_o second_o year_n of_o christ_n true_a incarnation_n and_o so_o onward_o the_o computation_n secundum_fw-la nativitatem_fw-la will_v begin_v a_o quarter_n of_o a_o year_n before_o the_o computation_n from_o his_o incarnation_n although_o the_o first_o year_n of_o christ_n secundum_fw-la nativitatem_fw-la which_o contain_v but_o 7_o day_n begin_v three_o quarter_n after_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o first_o year_n of_o his_o incarnation_n but_o here_o first_o i_o say_v that_o in_o the_o common_a and_o vulgar_a computation_n of_o christendom_n the_o year_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v not_o take_v secundum_fw-la nativitatem_fw-la but_o secundum_fw-la aetatem_fw-la &_o begin_v not_o at_o the_o first_o day_n of_o januarie_n but_o at_o the_o 25_o day_n of_o december_n which_o be_v the_o day_n of_o his_o nativity_n as_o appear_v by_o the_o council_n of_o constance_n which_o put_v the_o 28_o of_o december_n and_o the_o 11_o of_o march_n both_o in_o one_o year_n and_o although_o the_o astronomer_n and_o some_o other_o have_v reduce_v the_o year_n of_o christ_n to_o the_o usual_a year_n of_o the_o roman_n and_o begin_v it_o with_o the_o begin_n thereof_o that_o be_v at_o the_o first_o day_n of_o januarie_n be_v the_o day_n of_o christ_n circumcision_n yet_o they_o do_v not_o account_v those_o 7_o day_n
