Wherein contained, first, a table of the terms, with their returns; secondly a table of all the kings and queens reigns, from K. Egbert to this present reign as also the fulls, changes, and quarters of the moon, her rising and setting, time of high water at near one hundred places, the rising, setting and southing of the seven stars, with other fixed stars of note the rising and setting of the sun, mutual aspects and weather, with astrological observations, eclipses, and a large chronology of many remarkable things: the like not in any extant. Unto which is added, something touching the right observation of the holy feast of Easter with a strange and wonderful prophecy of Joseph Ben-Israel the wandering Jew, at Airacan in muscovia, and also another wonderful heiroglyphic being a ram and a dragon fighting, and likewise two armies in Battalia, with the meaning of all being delighful and i hope as well worth the reader's observation as that last year, which signified the thumping of the French in Flanders, which with my predictions on the months exactly came to pass. This almanack is rectify'd chiefly to the Meridian of London, whose latitude is 51 degrees 32 minutes north, but will serve for any part of Great Britain or Ireland. By Francis Moore Licens'd physician, and student in astrology.
