The Table of the Moon's Age is eafily underfood; for find the Month defired in the Head of the Table, and the Day of the Month in the firft Column under the Letter D, and in the common Meeting of the Lines you will have the Moon's Age. Having found the Moon's Age, as above, have recourse to the Two enfuing Tide-Tables, and look for the Place defired in the Head of the faid Tables, with the Age of the Moon, in the firft Column towards the Left-hand, and in the Angle of Meeting, is the Time of High-Water in Hours and Minutes. NB. The Tides do not fall out always exactly at the Time found in thefe Tables, by reason of the Difference of the Moon's Latitude, HighWinds, Land-Floods, and the like, which do very often alter the Time; but this is the commou Rule given. |
