AN EXPLANATION OF THE Perpetual Almanack.

THis Almanack was first intend∣ed to be as short and compen∣dious as was possible, and to be Graven on a small plate of Silver, about the breadth of a Shilling, and so portable toge∣ther with Money: but having now design'd it for a small pocket Book, I have thought it more convenient to divide it into three distinct Tables, which are much more plain and easie, that so the use thereof may be obvious to the meanest capacity. And when the three following Tables and their use are throughly understood, This Almanack will need no explanation, and may be used sometimes as well as the other three Tables.

The use of the Table in Page 6.

By the Table in Page 6. you may immediately find the Dominical Letter from the first year of our Lord, to the year 3400, &c. so long as the world shall last.

For example, For any year of Our Lord under 100. they are exprest in the Marginal Columnes of Numbers, and are answered in the first Columne of Letters. Thus for the years of Our Lord 28, 56, and 84. The Domi∣nical Letters are DC. For the years 1, 29, 57, and 85. the Dominical Letter is B. For the years 11, 39, 67, and 95. the Dominical Letter is D.

Page 2

Now for all the even Hundreds or Thousands from 100. to 3400. (which are all Leap-years) the Domi∣nical Letters are to be found above them in the 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7th Columne.

And for any other Numbers, the Rule is for ever this; Where the Marginal Number (equal to the Fracti∣on or part of an Hundred sought) meets with the Columne where that Number of Hundreds or Thousands (which is the other part of the Number sought) is exprest; That is the Dominical Letter (or Letters) for that year.

For example, Let the Dominical Letter be demanded for the year of Our Lord 1672. The number of Hun∣dreds is, 1600. and is found in the third Columne. And the broken part (72) among the Marginal Numbers meets with that third Columne in the Letters GF. which are the Dominical Letters for that year, namely the first of them (G.) from the first of January to S. Matthias Eve, the twenty fourth of February, and the other Letter F. to the years end, which is a constant Rule for all Leap-years.

If the Dominical Letter be demanded for 1481. The Hundreds are 1400. and are found in the first Co∣lumne, the broken part of an Hundred (81) meets with that Columne in G. which is the Dominical Letter for that year.

So if the Dominical Letter be demanded for 1349, 1300. is found in the 7 Columne, where the broken part (49) among the Marginal Numbers; meets in the Letter D. which is the Dominical Letter for that year.

Again, Let the Dominical Letter be demanded for the year 1729. 1700. is found in the 4 Columne, and 29. meets with that Columne in E.

And so for any year past or to come.

The use of the Table in page 7.

The use of this Table is to find readily, both upon what day of the week any moneth of the year begins for ever. But also how many days each month con∣tains,

Page 3

which is to be sound under the name of each re∣spective Moneth.

For example, I desire to know upon what day of the week the moneth of April begins, in the year 1623.

First I find by the Table in page 6. that the Domini∣cal Letter for that year is E. Then I guide my Eye down that Columne of the Table in page 7. where E. is at the top, and at the same time observe where April is in the Margent, and where the Line of April meets with the Columne E. there I find (Tuesday) which gives me to understand that April in the year 1623. begins on a Tuesday.

By the same Rule

The moneth of May in the year 1615. begins on a Munday.

The same moneth in the year 1616. began on a Wednesday; where it is to be noted that forasmuch as 1616 is a Leap year, I make use of the 2 Letter (F.) for the Table in page 7. which must always be ob∣served in Leap-years.

The moneth of September in the year 1537. began on a Saturday.

The moneth of July in the year 1471, began on a Monday.

The Moneth of December in the year 1642. began on a Thursday.

The moneth of August in the year 1781. will begin on a Sunday.

And so in all the rest.

The Use of the Table in Page 8.

The use of this Table (having first found upon what day of the week any Moneth begins) is to know readily the day of the Moneth.

Suppose it to be Thursday, and the beginning of October in the year 1672.

By the two former Tables I find, that the Moneth of October 1672. begins on a Tuesday; wherefore I

Page 4

look among the Tables in page 8. till I find a Ta∣ble that begins with a Tuesday; and finding that the Thursdays of that Moneth are 3, 10, 17, 24, and 31. and that it is yet but the beginning of the Moneth, I conclude that it must needs be the 3 day of the Moneth.

Where it is to be observed, that if I cannot by some Marks or Circumstances help my memory, to know at least what week of the Moneth it is, no Alma∣nack in the World can inform or tell me what day of the Moneth it is.

Two excellent Uses of the Ta∣ble, in Page 8.

1. By it may be readily found what day of the week, any day of the Month was, or will be, of any year past, or to come.

For example; Such a man was born, or such an acti∣on was done, or such a Letter was written the fourth of September in the year 1618. and it is demanded what day of the week it was?

1. By the Table in Page 6. I find the Dominical Let∣ter for that year to be D.

2. By the Table in Page 7. I find that September in that year began on a Tuesday.

3. And by the Table in page 8. I find that the fourth of September was the first Friday of that Moneth. And so may any other day of any week, of any other Month, of any other year past, or to come, be known.

Page 5

2. By it may be readily found what day of the Month, was or will be, of any day, of any week, of any month, of any year past, or to come.

For example; Suppose such a Man was born, or such an Action done, or such a Letter written, upon the first Friday of September, in the year 1618.

Having found by the foregoing directions, that Sep∣tember in that year began on a Tuesday, I find that the first Friday of that Moneth, was the fourth day of the same Moneth.

And so may be readily found what day of the Month, was or will be, any day of any week, of any month, of any year, past or to come.

Al which are of excellent and daily use for all Ministers of State, and for all Merchants in their correspondencies.

The Ʋse of this Table.

1. SEek the name of the Month in the left-hand Margent, and guiding your Eye to (1) in the Table, find out the day of the Month, which you shall find either above, or beneath in that Column.

2. From that day of the Month, guide your eye back to the Number in the left-hand Margent that stands against it in the Column under the Title (Day of the Month.)

3. From that Number guide your Eye to (1) in the Table, and in that Column find the Number that is the Number of the Prime for that Year, and from thence guide your Eye to the right-hand Margent, so have you your desire.

Example.

The Tenth day of May, 1665. I desire to know what Sign the Moon is, &c.

1. The Prime for that Year is 13.

2. I find May in the left-hand Margent, and guiding my Eye to (1) in the Table, and in that Column to 10 the Day of the Month, I bring my Eye back to (17) in the left-hand Margent.

3. I look for 13 among the Primes, and from that guide my Eye to (1) in the Table, and finding the aforesaid Number (17 in that Column, I do from that, guide my Eye to the right-hand Mar∣gent, and find that the Moon upon the Tenth of May, 1665. is entring into Leo Ω, and governs the Bowels and Belly.

The use of this Table.

FInd the Moons age in the first Column, and next against the same towards the right hand, is the time of her coming to the South; which from the New Moon to the Full Moon, is always in the Afternoon, but from the Full to the New, it is in the Morning.

Example.

May 12. 1671. the Moon is fourteen days old, which I find in the first Column, against which, towards the right hand in the second Column is 11. 12, which being before the Full of the Moon, I conclude that the Moon comes to south May 12. 1671. at 11 a clock at Night, and 12 Minutes past.

Page [unnumbered]

To know how long the Moon Shineth.

Enter the third Column with the Moons age, and against it, on the left hand, you have the time of her shining, which all the time of her Encrease, being added to the hour of Sun rising, gives the time of her rising: But if added to the time of Sun setting, gives the time of her setting.

But after the Full.

Take the time of her shining from the Suns ri∣sing, and it gives her rising; and then take the same from the Sun setting, it gives the time of her setting.

Example.

May 12. 1671. the Moon is 14 days old, and I find 11 hours, 12 minutes, for the time of her shining, (which being added to the Suns rising) upon the twelf of May, 1671. (viz. four hours) makes 3 of the clock, 12 minutes, for the time of the Moons rising the next Morning.

Again, to the said 11 hours, 12 minutes, add 8 hours from the Sun setting, it gives 7 hours, 12 minutes for the time of his setting.

Though these Rules are not altogether exact, yet they come near enough the truth, for ordinary use.

The Use of the Tide-Table.

Example.

May 12. 1671. I would know the Full Sea at London.

1. By the foregoing Rules I find the Moon comes to South at 11 of the clock, and 12 Minutes past, at Night.

There I seek for London in this Table, where I find that a S. W. or N. E. Moon makes a Full Sea, and on the right-hand I find 3 hours 0 minutes, which must be added to the Moons Southing. That is 3 hours, 0 minutes, added to 11 ho. 12 min. makes 2 a clock and 12 minutes the next Morning, for High Water at London-Bridge.

So that for any place and day, the hours and min. in the Table, are to be added to the Moons Southing, which gives the true time of High∣water for that place and day.

Thirdly. That the Full Moon is the 20th day, 11 min. past 12 at night.
