precisely

The day is precisely ten parts, and the night is eight.

When that period is completed, the day becomes shortened precisely one part, so that it is eleven parts, while the night is seven parts.

At that period the night is lengthened from the day during thirty mornings, and the day is curtailed from the day during thirty days; the night being ten parts precisely, and the day eight parts.

It is twelve parts precisely, while the day is six parts.

At that period the night becomes shortened. It is nine parts. And the night is equal with the day. The year is precisely three hundred and sixty-four days.

And on that night it is dark _in_ its fourteen portions, that is, _in each_ half; but it rises on that day with one seventh portion precisely, and in its progress declines from the rising of the sun.

It becomes precisely completed on the day that the sun descends into the west, while the moon ascends at night from the east.

_Its period_ is less than that of the sun, according to the ordinance of the stars, by five days in one half year precisely.

At a time when our fathers enjoyed great peace through the due observance of the Law, and were in happy case, so that Seleucus Nicanor, the king of Asia, sanctioned the tax for the temple-service, and recognized our polity, precisely then, certain men, acting factiously against the general concord, involved us in many and various calamities.
