A Star is said to _rise_ or _set Cosmically_, when it rises or sets at Sun-rising; and when it _rises_ or _sets_ at Sun-setting, it is said to rise or set _Acronically_. A Star _rises Heliacally_, when first it becomes visible, after it had been so near the Sun as to be hid by the splendor of his rays: And a Star is said to _set Heliacally_, when it is first immersed, or hid by the Sun’s rays.
