A view of the heavens: Being a short, but comprehensive system of modern astronomy. Exhibiting, I. The number, order, distances, magnitudes, and periods of all the planets and their several moons, composing our system, which the learning of the present age esteems as so many worlds full of inhabitants. II. The length of the day and year, with the variety of the seasons in each planet; and also the ph(c)Œnomena of the heavens to the inhabitants thereof. III. Some account of the comets, their number, periods, and appearances; and also the directions of their fiery trains thro' the heavens; with probable conjectures of the uses of those amazing bodies. IV. The number, magnitude, and distances of the fix'd stars; with their divisions into signs, catalogues, and constellations. V. The direct and retrograde motions of all the planets; as also, the reason why they sometimes appear stationary, or not to move at all. VI. The nature and causes of eclipses, both of the sun and moon; with an easy and expeditions method of calculating the eclipses, which will happen in any year. VII. The description and use of a curious astronomical clock, which will shew the hour of the night by the stars. To which is added, the use of the C(c)Œlestial Globe; with its application to a number of very interesting problems. Concluding with some curious ph(c)Œnomena upon the sun and moon exhibited in a darkened room; and a few select paradoxes, intended to excite the attention of the learner. The whole illustrated with copper-plates of the system, the Sun, Moon, eclipses, &c. and dispos'd in so easy and natural a manner, as to be understood in a few days. By the Rev.
