A TABLE TO FIND EASTER-DAY,
FROM THE PRESENT TIME TILL THE YEAR 1899, INCLUSIVE.

THIS Table contains so much of the Calendar as is necessary for the determining of Easter; to find which, look for the Golden Number of the year in the first column of the Table, against which stands the day of the Paschal Ful Moon; then look at the third column for the Sunday Letter, next after the day of the Full Moon; and the day of the month standing against that Sunday Letter is Easter-Day. If the Full Moon happen upon a Sunday, hen (according to the first rule) the next Sunday after is Easter-Day.

To find the Golden Nuniber, or Prime, add 1 to the year of our Lord, and then divide by 19; the emainder, if any, is the Golden Number; but if nothing remain, then 19 is the Golden Number.

To find the Dominical or Sunday Letter, according to the Calendar, until the year 1899, inclusive, add to the year of our Lord its fourth part, omitting fractions, divide the sum by 7, and if there be no remainder, then A is the Sunday Letter; but if any number remain, then the Letter standing against that number in he small annexed Table is the Sunday Letter.

NOTE. That in a Bissextile
will be the same as if Easter-Day had fallen one day later than it really does.
for the same reason, one day must, in every Leap-Year, be added to the day of the
month given by the Table for Septuagesima Sunday, and for the first day of Lent:
unless the Table gives some day in the month of March for it: for in that case, the
day given by the Table is the right day.

FROM THE YEAR 1900 TO THE YEAR 2199, INCLUSIVE.

THE Golden Numbers in the foregoing Calendar will point out the days of the Paschal Full Moons, till the year of our Lord 1900; at which time, in order that the Ecclesiastical Full Moons may fall nearly on the same days with the real Full Moons, the Golden Numbers must be removed to different days of the Calendar, as is done in the annexed Table, which contains so much of the Calendar then to be used, as is necessary for finding the Paschal Full Moons, and the Feast of Easter, from the year 1900, to the year 2199, inclusive. This Table is to be made use of, in all respects, as the first Table, before inserted, for finding Easter till the year 1899.
