Poor Robin. 1732. A new almanack after the old fashion Wherein, you have an account of the eclipses, and of the new Moons, as some call them, but they are only made of the old one. You have also the thirteen houses, twelve about the edges, and one in the middle; with a great many other things which were never in any other almanack, nor in this neither 'till now. With a discovery of that great secret how to get money, being the bissextile or leap year. Containing a two-fold calendar. Viz. The honest protestant hold ccount [sic] and the popish whimsical new account, and the saints days of both, to let every body see the difference. Written by Poor Robin, knight of the Burnt Island, a well wisher to the mathematicks
