eft digreffion from Saturn hapiied in the begindiog of Nawmk 
and was found to be of mioursj or of icf diameters of Sa^

olNovemberin the fuperior part i and tkat hh revolution about 
Saturn was of a long duration, fioce for 12 days together he 
not only remained 00 the. fame Occidental' fide of Saturn^ but 
there was alfo little change of apparent diftance between him 
and Saturn* The greateft digreffioo of this Planet was treble 
to that of the ordinary Satellir, and this enabled us to judge 
the Time of his revolutioo 10 be qumtwple^ applying to the Sa-^ 
tellits that proportion^ which Kepler hath noted in the Prin- 
cipal PlanetSj between the periodical Times and their Diftan- 
ces. But there was one circumftancej which made us doubt, 
whether it were a Satellit or a Principal Plamf^ which was ^ 
That in the laft obfer vations we took notice^thac he had a lilile 
Southern latitude in rcfpefi to theLine of the wiogs o[ Saturo^ 
which we had not obfcrved in the firJi^ when he was oeareft 
to Saturn 5 which happens not to the other Satellit^which ha^th 
always the more latitudej the nearer he is to Saturn ; yet it 
might well be^ that the Circle of this Planet might have fome 
declination from the Gircle of the other Satellit, as it coma to 
pafs in the Principal planets, the Circles of which are incliocd 
to one another. However this difficulty made us fufpend 
our Judgment until we could make fuch a number of ob- 
fervationsj as might fuffice for a more precife dttermf-
