¶To knowe the altitude of planetes from the waye of the sunne, whe∣ther they bene North or south fro the waye aforesayd.

LOke whā a planete is on y^e lyne meridionall, yf that her altitude be of the same height that is the degree of the sunne for that day and than is the planet in the ve∣rey waye of the sunne, and hath no latitude. And yf the altitude of the planet be hyer thā the degree of the sunne, than is the planette North from the waye of the sygne Southe, a quantyte of latitude as sheweth by thyne Almicantras, and yf the altitude be lesse thā the degree of the sunne, than is the planette Southe from the waye of the sunne, suche a quantyte of latitude as sheweth by thine al∣micantras. This is to fayne from the waye of the sunne in euery place of the zodiake, for on the morowe the sunne wyll be in another degree.
