i\ In this one piece of meat I reclconed diftmiaiy above 
twenty feveral places that did all of them fliine, though nor 
all of them alike, fome of them doing it but very 
faintly* 
3. The bignefs of thefe Lucid parts was differing c- 
nougb, fame of them being as big as the nail of a mans 
middle finger, fome few bigger, and moft of them lefs. 
Nor were there figures at all more uniform^ fome being 
inclined to a round, others almofl oval^ but the greateft 
part of them very irregularly ftiap'd. 
4* The parts that flione moft^ which *twas not fo eafie

bodies may be conveniently laid in a book, and made to 
move from one letter or word to another. But by good 
fortune having by me the curious TranfaBions of this 
monthj I was kble fo to apply that flexible paper to fome 
of the more refplendent fpots, that J ^ould plainly read 
divers conlecutive letters of the Title. 
6. The Colour that accompanied the light was not in all 
the fame, but in thofe which (hone livelieftj it feemed to
