don made ac the Seat of the Right Honourable the Lord 
Foley at Witley eight Miles beyond Worcefter , by his Order, 
and communicated by his Lorddiip to the Royal Society ; 
whereby it appears that the total Darknefs laded there 
3'. 15". Hence it follows that Witley was about three or 
4 Miles farther from the Center of the Shade on the North.- 
fide than London on the South ; and Witley being by Ogilbys 
Menfurations, 1 1 8 meafured Miles from London , it is plain 
that the Center pad over IJlip, which is, by the fame Ad- 
meafurement, 57 fuch Miles on that Road, and about five 
Miles almod due North from Oxford ; fo that the Center 
of the Shade left Oxford but very little upon the right Hand . 
This Situation agrees perfectly well with the former be- 
tween Barton and King ^Walden, and as far as the Geogra- 
phy of our Country may be relied on, I conclude the 
Center to have entred upon England about Plymouxh, and 
to have pad over Exeter, the Devizes , I flip, Buckingham 
and Huntington , leaving Oxford and Bedford on the Right, 
and Lynn on the Left, and to have quitted the Coad of 
Norfolk about Wells and Blakeney. 
As for the Limits of the Shade, both on the North and 
South fide, we have by Enquiry gotten them with all the 
Exa&nefs the thing is capable of, and wefhouldhave been 
glad the French Aflronomers had done the like for the To- 
tal Eclipfe that pad over Languedoc , Provence and Daupbi* 
ny on the Fird of May 1 70 6. But as this is the fird Eclipfe 
of this kind that has been obferved with the Attention 
the Dignity of the Phenomenon requires, we hope thofe 
which may happen for the future to traverfe Europe, may 
not pafs by fo little regarded as hitherto. 
As to the Southern Limit or Term where the Eclipfe 
ceafed to be Total on the South fide of the Sun, we have 
received an Account of an Obfervation made at Norton • 
court about Ten Miles on this fide Canterbury , by the Reve- 
rend Dr. John Harris, S. T. P. Prebendary of Rochefter
