more than yefterday it wanted of it (F).

21 43. It is very faint; fainter than the firft ; not much 
brighter than the fixth (H). 
Nov. 2. 23 57. By a figure, the 5th fat. at fome diftance 
Nov. 3. 22 1. At a good diftance ff. R* (K). 
22 13. The 5th a little following a line drawn through two 
fixed ftars and between them. It is fouth of the ring. 
Nov. 4. 22 17. The 5th at a great diftance following, and 
a very little fouth ; it precedes the line of the two ftars which 
it followed laft night (L). 
Nov. 7. 22 9. The 5th at a great diftance following, and a 
little north (M). , 
Nov. 8. 20 46. At a great diftance following (N).

(H) From the conliderable change in the light of this fatellite, we may 
furmife, that it has a revolution upon its axis ; the fituation (fee note Z and G), 
which affe&s the apparent brightnefs, Ihould however be taken into the account®

(L) 7 h. u'6". 2 5 0 , 2. A few days ago I perceived, that in the former 
part of thefe obfervations I had omitted a pretty eflential circumftance, which is 
an attention to the nodes of the 5th fat. with the ring of Saturn. 
(M) 6 h. 51' 2 1 ". 39 0 , 2. It appears from this and the foregoing obferva- 
tion, that the afcending node of the 5th fatellite, with regard to the ring of Sa- 
turn, apparently lies between the 25th and 39th degrees, which, reduced to a 
Saturnicentric pofxtion, is about the 19th degree from the point Aries reckoned 
upon the ring.
