 1 [Title]|           ben unknowe parfitly to eny mortal man in this regioun,
 2 [Title]|         as ben shewid in Latyn in eny commune tretys of the Astrelabie,

 4 21     |       whan the sonne entrith into eny of tho signes he takith
 5 3      |      nyght or by day the degre of eny signe that ascendith on
 6 3      |         set justly a clokke, whan eny celestial body by which
 7 3      | conclusion sey I by the centre of eny sterre fix by nyght. And
 8 4      |           degre that ascendith at eny of these forseide tymes
 9 4      |  orisounte. And therfore, yf that eny planete ascende at thatt
10 4      |           in that same signe with eny degre of the forseide face
11 6      |           Virgo to Pisces. And if eny degre in thy zodiak be derk,
12 7      |      maist thou se how longe that eny sterre fix dwelleth above
13 11     |         the clokke ben passed, or eny part of eny of these houres
14 11     |        ben passed, or eny part of eny of these houres that ben
15 13     |           the heighest cours that eny sterre fix clymbeth by night.
16 13     |         This is to seyn that whan eny sterre fix is passid the
17 15     |         loke when the sonne is in eny of thilke degrees; than
18 16     |      therfore understond wel that eny two degrees lo that ben

20 17     |         knowe the verrey degre of eny maner sterre, straunge or
21 17     |        same firste sterre passith eny thyng the south westward;
22 17     |          it be of the sonne or of eny fix sterre, rekne hys latitude

24 17     |   latitude or the declinacioun of eny body celestiall, save oonly
25 18     |            and loke what degre of eny signe that sitte upon the
26 19     |         which degre of the zodiak eny sterre fix in thin Astrelabie

34 23     |    sterred, wayte a tyme til that eny sterre fix sitte lyne-right
35 24     |      artik fro the orisonte. ~Tak eny sterre fix that never discendith
36 25     |          wel that the latitude of eny place in a regioun is verrely

38 25     |    altitude fro the equinoxial of eny sterre fix that thou knowist,
