אֵלּוּ הַיָּמִים שֶׁאֵין קוֹבְעִים בָּהֶם הַמּוֹעֲדִים; לֹא אד"ו רֹאשׁ הַשָּׁנָה, וְלֹא גא"ו יוֹם הַכִּפּוּרִים, וְלֹא זב"ד פּוּרִים, וְלֹא בד"ו פֶּסַח, וְלֹא גה "ז עֲצֶרֶת וְהוֹשַׁעְנָא רַבָּה, לֹא ג' חֲנֻכָּה, וְלֹא אג"ו צוֹם אֶסְתֵּר, וְלֹא בד"ו צוֹם תַּמּוּז וְאָב. לְעוֹלָם בַּיּוֹם שֶׁיִּהְיֶה פּוּרִים יִהְיֶה ל"ג לָעֹמֶר, וְסִימָן פל"ג, וּבַיּוֹם שֶׁיִּהְיֶה חֲנֻכָּה יִהְיֶה עֲצֶרֶת.

Se’if 2ב׳

אֵלּוּ הַיָּמִים שֶׁהֻקְבְּעוּ בָּהֶם רָאשֵׁי חֳדָשִׁים וְלֹא בְּזוּלָתָם; נִיסָן אגה "ז, אִיָּר בגה "ז, סִיוָן אגד"ו, תַּמּוּז אגה "ו, אָב בדו"ז, אֱלוּל אבד"ו, תִּשְׁרֵי בגה "ז, מַרְחֶשְׁוָן גדו" א, כִּסְלֵו א"ב ג"ד ה "ו, טֵבֵת אבגד"ו, שְׁבָט בגדה "ז, אֲדָר זבד"ו. וּבָעִבּוּר, אֲדָר הָרִאשׁוֹן בדה"ז וְשֵׁנִי בדו"ז.

Se’if 3ג׳

סִימָן לִקְבִיעַת הַמּוֹעֲדִים; א"ת ב"ש, ג"ר ד"ק, ה "ץ ו"ף, פֵּרוּשׁ: בְּיוֹם רִאשׁוֹן שֶׁל פֶּסַח יִהְיֶה לְעוֹלָם תִּשְׁעָה בְּאָב וְסִימָן: עַל מַצּוֹת וּמְרֹרִים יֹאכְלֻהוּ (בַּמִּדְבָּר ט, יא). בְּיוֹם ב' בּוֹ שָׁבוּעוֹת, וּבְיוֹם ג' בּוֹ רֹאשׁ הַשָּׁנָה, בְּיוֹם ד' בּוֹ קְרִיאַת הַתּוֹרָה שֶׁהוּא שִׂמְחַת תּוֹרָה, בְּיוֹם ה' בּוֹ צוֹם כִּפּוּר, בְּיוֹם ו' בּוֹ פּוּרִים שֶׁעָבַר.

The mnemonic for the fixing of the festivals: A-T, B-Sh, G-R, D-K, H-Tz, V-P. Meaning: on the weekday of the first day of Passover will always fall the ninth of Av, and the mnemonic is: "they shall eat it with unleavened bread and bitter herbs" (Numbers 9:11). On the weekday of its second day, the Feast of Weeks; on that of its third, Rosh Hashanah; on that of its fourth, the Reading of the Torah, which is Simchat Torah; on that of its fifth, the Fast of the Day of Atonement; on that of its sixth, the Purim that has passed.
