16 On Tuesday.—Worse, though he may with extraordinary violence conquer the inordinate desires to which he will subject, still he will be in danger of dying by violence, if  has not great precaution.

VI.—

There are certain days in the year which it concerns persons to know, because they are so perilous and dangerous for on these days if a man or woman let blood, they shall  within twenty-one days following; and whosoever falleth  on any of these days shall certainly die; and whosoever beginneth any journey on any of these days, he shall be  danger of death before he returns. Also he that marrieth wife on any of these days, they shall either be quickly parted or else live together with sorrow and discontent. And lastly whosoever on any of these days beginneth any great business it will never prosper or come to the desired perfection.

Now, since these days are so unfortunate, it highly every one, both to know and take notice of them; which that the reader may do, I have set down in the following order:—

In January are eight days, that is to say, the 1st, 2d, 4th, 5th, 10th, 15th, 17th, and 19th.

In February are three days, that is, the 8th, 17th, and 21st.

In March are three days, that is, the 13th, 16th, and 21st.

In April are two, the 15th and 21st.

In May three, the 15th, 17th, and 20th.

In June two, the 4th and 5th.

In July two, the 15th and 20th.

In August two, the 10th and 25th.

In September two, the 6th and 7th.

In October one, the 19th.

In November two, the 5th and 7th.

In December three, the 6th, 7th, and 11th.
