A rule to knowe the chaunge, full, and quarters of the Moone for euer, which ye may doo by heart, knowing the Epact.

LOoke in the table made of purpose, on the other side of this leafe, for the Epact, which is a number deuised to know the chaunge for euer. which number of Epact, standeth vnder this tytle Epact, and is right against the yeres of our Lorde and to know the chaunge of the moone do this, enter the table, and looke for the number of the epact, for that yeere you would knowe the chaunge, then reckon howe many moneths are past from march vnto the moneth you would know the change, reckoning march for one, and the moneth you are in for an other, as I would know on what day of the moneth of December 1594. the moone chaungeth: the Epact is xviij. from March to December are 10. months, (reckoning March and December for twoof the number) which 10. adde to the Epact 18. which maketh 28. which 28. also take from 30. so rest 2. on which day the moone changeth. Note that the Epact beginneth in March. and not in Ianuary: so that Ianuary and February bee the last in number of the 12. Note also, that if y^e numbers amount vnto aboue 30. the 30, being cast out, the remaine that is left must be taken from 30: if it be vnder 30, take that also from 30. and the remaine is the day of the change of the moone. Notwithstanding, if there be 31. daies in a month, then take the remaine from 30. if but 30. dayes in the [Page] moneth, then take the remaine from 29. as for example: the Epact 1594. is 18. from March to Aprill 2. which added is 20. which 20. take from 29. (for Aprill hath but 30. daies) so rest 9. so I say the the Moone chaungeth the 9. of aprill 1594. By which rule you may know the chaunge alwayes, by hart knowing the Epact.

An other rule for the chaunge of the Moone by the Pryme number.

LOoke in the table made of purpose, on y^e other side of this leafe, for the goldē nūber, or prime for the yeere, where you shall finde for euerie yeere the seuerall prime or golden number: hauing foūd it, looke in that month wherin you wil know when the moone changeth, for the same prime nū ber, which prime number standeth first in euerie leafe, vnder y^e name of prime, & right against that day where the prime number standeth, on that day the Moone chaungeth: as for example, I woulde knowe on what day of the month of Ianuary 1594 the moone chaungeth? Looke in y^e table for the yere 1594. against which yeere standeth the prime nūber which is xviij. thē turne to Ianuary, & looke down along the numbers stāding vnder prime, for xviij which is against y^e xij. day of Ianuarie, on which day the moone chaungeth, so that by this rule you shall know when the moone will change any yeere to come, when you know the prime number. Note that y^e ful moone is xiiij. daies .18. houres after the chaunge, the quarter is vij. dayes ix. houres.
