Another Example.

WHen the Moone is 18, daies old, being before the Su••ne, I desire to knowe the houre of the ful sea, where an east moone makes a ••igh water, I consider that the M. being but 18. daies old, there is yet 12. daies of her age to come which sheweth the Moone to be 12. pointes, & ••6. min. from the Sunne, and before him, the Moone then being at the east & the Sunne must be 12 points & 36. mi. behinde her, which is at northwest & 36. min: to the west∣wards. So the full sea where it floweth east or west, & the Moone 18. dai••s old shalbe at 8 of the clocke 24. minutes. And that by this computation is easily found in all places, and vpon euerie point of the Compasse, the time of the full sea or high water, the age of the moone being knowne as is before declared.
