HIS Table contains so much

To the calendar as is necessary

for the determining of Easter; to tind which, look for the Golden Number of the Year in the First Column of the Table, against which stands the Day of the Paschal Full Moon; then look in 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 happens upon a Sunday, then (according to the First Rule) the next Sunday after is Easter-Day.

To find the Golden Number, or Prime, add one to the Year of our Lord, and then divide by 19; the Remainder, if any, is the Golden Number; but if nothing remain. eth, then 19 is the Golden Number.

Tday Letter for the Year in the uppermost Line,

and the Golden Number, or Prime, in the Column of Golden Numbers, and against the Prime, in the same) Line under the Sunday Letter, you have the Day of the Month on which Easter falleth that Year. But note that the Name of the Month is set on the Left Hand, or just with the Figure, and followeth not, as in other Tables, by Descent, but Collateral.
