The Iewes did diuide their Artificiall day into 4. quarters allowing to euery quarter 3. houres accounting the first houre of the first quarter at the rising of the Sunne and the third houre of the sayde quarter they called the third houre and the third houre of the second quarter they called the 6. houre which was mid-day the third houre of the third quarter the 9. houre and the 2. houre of the 4. quarter the 11. houre and they called the 12. and last houre of the day Euentide So the Rulers sonne being healed at the 7. houre it was with vs at one of the clocke in the afternoone and the 6. hower when darknes was vpon the earth at midday with vs the 9. hower when Christ yeelded vp the Ghost 3. a clocke in the afternoone the Laborers that came at the 11. howre came at 5. of the clocke in the afternoone or an hower before Sunne-set Q.
