Wherein is contained both astronomical and astrological observations, with the state of the year deduced according to art, from the solar ingresses, eclipses, various configurations, and aspects of the planets: the rising, setting, and southing of the moon: a table of the kings and queens reigns: a perpetual table of break of day, twilight, length of the day, sun rising and setting, to every fifth day throughout the year.

Together with ptolemy's table of houses, with all other necessaries fitting for such a work; accommodated to the meridian of London, whose latitude is 51 deg. 32 min. north; but will serve for any part of Great-Britain, or Ireland. To which is added, monthly observations, and predictions for the whole year, the like not extant, (in all particulars). By Henry Coley, student in the mathematicks, and the c̆lestial sciences.
