¶ Certaine Husbandly Coniectures

of Dearth and Plentie for euer.

The first Chapter.

And first consider and marke, that howe the weather is a daye before the day presente, and the daye after the Sunnes entraunce into the signe Aries, and suche like shall the weather be (for the moste parte) in these thrée moneths, as in September, October, and Nouember.

And looke howe the weather shal be at the Sunnes entrance into the signe of Leo, as at the day of the entrance the daye before, and the daye after, and such commonlye shall be in the moneths of December, Ianuarie, and Februarie, for if the winde shall then blowe oute of the North, or Easte, and those daies drie, then shall followe a verye colde season in those thrée moneths: but if the winde blowe out of the South or Weast, and that it raineth in those thrée dayes, then yse to followe in those thrée moneths. And if the weather in these thrée daies shal be neither wholy drie, nor wholy moiste, then shall folowe an vnstedfaste Winter.

And like as the weather shall be at the Sunnes entraunce into the signe Libra, as at the daye of the entraunce, the daye before, and the daye after, suche for the more parte shall be the Spring, as in the moneth of Marche, Aprill, and May.
