Edition and transcription

The complete text is presented in English as selectable HTML, which your browser can translate. The transcription follows a 1987 printing of the 1662 Book of Common Prayer and includes later amendments and additional calendar material.

The electronic transcription was prepared by Lynda M. Howell. FPEC has adapted its layout and navigation; the prayer-book wording is preserved.

TO make use of the preceding Table, find the Sunday 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.
