When a number appears in this table without any character over it, it is to 

 be understood, that the weather was quite unsettled from that day to the next 

 bearing a mark; and when 2 or more marks are found over the same number, 

 all the different kinds of weather, denoted by the several marks, took place on 

 that day. The same is to be understood in the tables, in my paper preceding. 



This table distinguishes the changes of weather which fell on the days of true 

 syzygy, true quadrature, and true octagonal aspect. Setting aside the very 

 changeable months of September and November, there were 39 changes in the 

 remaining 10, 14 of which happened on the days specified; which is almost 4 

 more than belong to them on the even chance. Of these 14 changes, only 4 

 fell on the day of a new moon, and none at all on the day of the full.
