afcenfion was, therefore, 4' ii". 3 retrograde. The 
declination of Venus was then 22 0 31' 54". 2 ; and 
the horary motion in declination was 45 // .29, fouth- 
wards : the horary motion of Venus from the fun in 
declination was, therefore, i' o // .62, fouthwards. 
The logarithm of the earth from the fun was then 
5.006642 ; the logarithm of Venus from the fun was 
4.861192; and the logarithm of Venus from the 
■earth was 4.460874. If we fuppofe the horizontal 
parallax of the fun to be 1 oi", then the horizontal 
parallax of Venus, as feen from the earth, will be 
36". 3 r ; which, diminifhed by that of the fun, is 
2 $" ' 97 ' ^ the parallax in longitude and latitude is 
-computed from thefe data, the vifible horary motion 
of Venus from the fun in longitude will be 3' 58". 35 
^retrograde, and in latitude 33 ".75 fouth. The lon- 
gitude and latitude of the center of Venus from the 
lun’s center, anfwering to the leveral right alcenlions 
and declinations obferved, may be determined in the 
following manner.
