points of the situation of these intersections, and the stars by 
which they are made, without giving a calculated table of 
them. 
The 1st is the following leg of Hercules, and is made by 
Sirius and G Tauri. The 2d is also in the following leg of 
Hercules, by Sirius and « Andromedae. The 3d is in the fol-

the neck of the Dragon, by Arcturus and /3 Tauri. The 5th

14th in the back of Hercules, by Procyon and os Andromedae. 
And the 1 5th near the follow ing arm of Hercules, is made by 
Procyon and os Arietis. 
An argument like this, founded upon the most authentic

calculated, the other fifteen may nevertheless be depended 
upon as true to less than one degree of the sphere.
