which, as well as the Arch GH , was 4 Degrees di- 
ftant from the lunar Circle ABCD. The Bara- 
felene B had the fame Colours with a common 
Barhelius , excepting that they were not fo lively, 
but they very much inclined to the tawny, efpe- 
dally on the Side, which faced the Moon. This Bara- 
felene was in the fame Altitude as the Moon. Its Tail 
was much more faint and tranfparent ; inafmuch as 
Capelin appeared thro’ this luminous Tail. The 
lunar Circle ABCB) was much weaker to the South, 
and there appeared no Barafelene on that Side. 
This Meteor did not feem to undergo any Alteration 
till 5> w . 1 S', when the Atmofphere was cover'd with 
thick Clouds. 
The Clouds being diminifhed at p h . 32'. the 
Meteor appeared again, but very different from what 
it was before j for, inflead of feeing a lunar Circle 
with 4 other Arches of Circles, I faw the lunar 
Circle BDABB), and on the South Side a faint 
Arch QR of four Degrees, having the Moon for 
its Centre in common with the great lunar Circle. 
There were likewife two Barafelene s y one ofwhichf 
B was to the North, and the other B) to the South, 
as they are expreffed in Fig. 8. Thefe two Bara- 
felene s did not caft fo flrong a Light as that which 
had appeared before, nor were they fo diftin&ly 
formed. On the contrary, the lunar Circle was very 
beautiful, and remarkably bright, until f. yo'. 
when the whole Bhrenomenon difappeared, and the 
Sky grew clear by degrees. The Moon’s Diame- 
ter was 30'. 3o // . On the fame Night a very beau- 
tiful lunar Circle was obferved at Berlin, but with- 
out Barafelene s.
