Now, with the right afcenfion of the meridian at the begin- 

 ning, increafed by fix hours, or 6'! 24 ^t^', the latitude of the 

 place of obfervation 57° 9' o", and the obliquity of the ecliptic 

 23° 28' 3", the altitude of the nonagefimal is 41° 39' 6", and 

 its longitude 35° 46' 6"; hence the moon's apparent diftance 

 from the nonagefimal is 38° 8' 51", with which the altitude of
