They affirm to have observ'd the _Figure_ of this _Eclipse_, and measured the {296} _Digits_, by casting the _Figure_ through a 5 foot _Telescope_, on an extended paper, fix't at a certain distance from the Eye-glasse, and having a round figure; all whose _Diameters_ were divided, by 6 _Concentrick_ Circles, into 12 _Digits_. The Observations made at _Madrid_ by a Noble Member of the _Royal Society_, His Excellence the Earle of _Sandwich_, as they were sent to the Right Honourable, the Lord Vice-Count _Brounker_, are these; The Eclipse _began_ at _Madrid_ about 5 of the Clock in the morning, at 5 h. 15', the Suns _Altitude_ was 6 deg. 55'. The _Middle_ of it was at 6 h. 2', the Suns _Altitude_, 15. deg. 5'. The _End_ was exactly at 7 h. 5'; the Suns _Altitude_, 25. deg. 24'. The _Duration_, 2h. 4'. 37. Parts of the Suns diameter remained light. 63. Parts of the same were darkened. The Observations made at _Paris_ by Monsieur _Payen_, assisted by several _Astronomers_, as they were printed in _French_, and addressed to Monsieur de _Montmor_, are these; The _Eclipse_ began there, at 5 h. 44'. 52". _mane_. It ended at 7 h. 43'. 6". So that its _whole Duration_ was 1 h. 58'. 14". The _greatest Obscuration_ they assign to have been 7. dig. 50. m. but they adde, that it seem'd to have been greater by 3 minuts; which M. _Payen_ imputes to a particular motion of _libration_ of the Suns Globe, which entertain'd that Luminary in the same _Phasis_ for the space of 8. _min._ and some _seconds_, as if it had been stopped in the midst of its Course; rather than to a tremulous Motion of the _Atmosphere_, as _Scheiner_ would have it. They intimate that they took the time of each _Phasis_ from half _digit_ to half _digit_, as well by a _Pendulum_, as by the _Altitudes_ of the _Suns Center_ above the _Horizon_, corrected by the _Verticall Paralaxes_ and _AEstivall Refractions_, by which they judged, that though the Time by the _Pendulum_ may be sufficient for _Mechanicall_ Operations, yet 'tis not exact enough for establishing the _Grounds of true Astronomy_. They further conceive that the apparent _Diameters_ were almost equal; seeing that in the _Phasis_ of 6. _Digits_, the _Circumference_ of the _Moons disk_ passed through the _Center_ of that of the _Sun_, so as that two Lines drawn through the two _Horns_ of the Sun, made with the _Common Semi-diameter_ two _Equilateral Triangles_.
