The dreams of Light that darted upwards from the 
Horizon Teemed to be at confiderably a greater diftance, 
but not at all in Icfs quantity than thole of Mov.ioth, 
But their meeting in a Point near the Zenith, and there 
forming a kind of Can<>j>j, was what was particularly 
remarkable in the Manner of the Corufeations now di^ 
ferent from thole of t^ov. i o. 
The dreams of Light role from the Horizon only 
towards the North, and on each hand towards N. Ead 
and N. Wed : But near the Zenith a Canopy was formed 
of dreams of Light meeting in a Point, not only from

very Iwifily. 
On each fide of the N. towards E. and W. but not 
exactly in the N. it felf fat lead when I faw it) from 
about 10 or 15° to 40 or 50° above the Horizon, the 
Streams were of a glowing red Colour, whereas all that I 
had ever feen before vv^ere very pale. The rednefs 
was like that of a burnt Brick, and neared of any 
thing I have feen to the Colour, which remained for a 
few Minutes, like that iradt through which the Meteor 
paded in the Spring. 
The Streams appeared of this fierce Colour when 
I fird faw the Corufeations, and continued fo for 
fome time, till the rednefs by degrees wearing off, in 
about ^ of an Hour they appeared of the ufual Palenefs,
