67. For the year A.D. 1919 the tropical longitude is found by adding to the day of the Solar Year (1919-639)/64 = 1280/64, i.e., exactly 20 days, and this addition holds good for 64 years, i.e., for 32 years before and 32 years after A.D. 1919 or from A.D. 1887 to A.D. 1951. In Table XIII the correction for Tropical longitude which applies to the year A.D. 1919 is assumed to apply to the whole period of 80 years from A.D. 1840 instead of only to the period of 32 years from A.D. 1887. There is no great error in this assumption.
