herein_o i_o give_v but_o my_o judgement_n whereas_o our_o now-astrology_n begin_v the_o year_n at_o the_o ☉_o his_o entrance_n into_o ♈_o on_o this_o side_n of_o the_o equator_n and_o erect_v its_o

of_o time_n the_o ☉_o have_v just_o finish_v his_o further_a southern_a progress_n and_o begin_v to_o come_v towards_o we_o again_o from_o that_o time_n to_o use_v the_o common_a argument_n instil_a

astrologer_n accommodate_v always_o their_o scheme_n to_o the_o time_n of_o exclusion_n and_o by_o that_o judge_n of_o the_o future_a lot_n of_o the_o native_a it_o will_v better_o agree_v with_o
