OŃ THE REVOLUTIONS OF THE HEAVENLY SPHERES

Translated by
CHARLES GLEN WALLIS

Diligent reader, in this work, which has just been created and published, you have the motions of the fixed stars and planets as these motions have been reconstituted on the basis of ancient as well as recent observations, and have moreover been embellished by new and marvellous hypotheses. You also have most convenient tables, from which you will be able to compute those motions with the utmost ease for any time whatever. Therefore buy, read, and enjoy [this work].

Let no one untrained in geometry enter here.
