That in a bissextile or leap year, the number of Sundays after Epiphany will be the same as if Easter-dBay had fallen one day later than it really does. And for the same reason one day must in every leap year be added to the day of the month given bywxw table for Septuagesima Sunday: And the like must be done for the first day of Lent (commonly called Ash Wednesday), unless the table gives some day in the month of March for it; for in that case the day given by the table is the right day.
