Of the Heaven of the fixed Stars ALthough by the Diurnal motion of the Primum mobile this Heaven as all the other Orbs of the Planets are be violently turned about once in 24 hours yet they retain a proper motion to themselves which is contrary to the former this motion is called natural because it is effected by the proper motion of the Star or Planet in its own Orbe and the other motion is called Violent because it forceth a motion contrary to what the thing it self in nature would perform This Heaven of the fixed Stars is very slow in motion moving but one degree in 71 years and so is 25412 years moving through the whole Zodiack It is adorned and beautified with divers glorious bodies of several magnitudes of which the Ancients have noted 6 in number and that the multiplicity of these glorious bodies might not confound the beholders by their irregular scituation the Ancients have contracted their number by the uniting a certain number of them together into the form or fashion of some living Creature or other object as the SWAN the BEAR the SHIP the CROSSE c. and these are called ' Constellations of these Consteliations the Ancients observed only 48 though there be others found out of later times of which 21 were on the North side of the Equinoctial 15 on the South side and 12 in the Zodiack it self each of these Constellations contain a certain number of these Stars whose magnitudes are very vast in respect of this little ball whereon we live for A Star of the first Magnitude is greater than the Globe of the whole Earth 68 times of which magnitude there are 15 Stars A Star of the second Magnitude is greater than the Globe of the whole Earth 28 times of which magnitude there are 45 Stars A Star of the third magnitude is greater than the Globe of the whole Earth 11 times of which magnitude there are 208 Stars A Star of the fourth magnitude is greater than the Globe of the whole Earth 11 times of which magnitude there are 244 Stars A Star of the fifth Magnitude is greater than the Globe of the whole Earth 21 times of which magnitude there are 217 Stars But a Star of the sixth Magnitude is lesse than the Earth and of his Magnitude are 49 Stars An Appendix to the precedent Almanack 2. Of the Heaven of Saturn THis Heaven is scituated within the Concavity of the Heaven of the fixed Stars and containeth only the body of his own Planet which appeareth as a Star of the second magnitude he is of a swarthy and obscure colour like unto lead his distance from the Earth in his mean distance is 9091960 Miles and the circumference of his Spheare is 57030266 miles according to which by the violent motion of the primum mobile he is moved 2376261 Miles in an hour but his own proper motion is slower than any of the other Planets yet much swifter than that of the fixed Stars for he endeth his course in 30 years 3. Of the Heaven of Jupiter VVIthin the Concavity of the Sphear of Saturn is sciutated the heaven of Jupiter in which moveth the body of 4 which appeareth like a Star of the first magnitude very bright and of nature warm In his mean distance he is distant from the Earth 3431400 Miles his body exceeding the earth in magnitude 14 times the periemter of his sphear being 21568800 miles so that his hourly motion is 898700 Miles he finisheth his Zodiacal period in 11 years and 316 dayes 4. Of the Heaven of Mars UNder the Heaven of Jupiter is the Orb of Mars appearing of a red fiery colour being distant from the earth in his mean distance 1500700 Miles the Circumference of his Spheare being 9432971 Miles so that by the violent motion of the primum mobile he is moved 393040 Miles in the space of an hour he compleateth his revolution in one year and 322 dayes 5. Of the Heaven of the Sun THe Sun is seated in the midst of the Planetary Orb by which he enlightens the superiour as well as the inferiour In his mean distance he is distant from the earth 989000 Miles the magnitude of his body being according to Tycho 140 times greater than the earth the compasse of his Orb being 6216571 Miles and he moveth in a hour 259023 Miles he maketh his Zodiacal revolution in 365 dayes 5 hours 49 min. 16 second 6. Of the Heaven of Venus VENUS the most bright and splendent star in all the Firmament is moved about the Sun as about a Centre her distance from the earth being 989000 Miles she moveth equally about the Sun though her motion séem to be very irregular she is sometimes higher and sometimes lower than the Sun she is six times lesse than the Earth and is distant from the Sun 735300 Miles 7. Of the Heaven of Mercury VVIthin the concavity of the Spheare of VENUS is placed MERCURY he is seituate very near the Sun and is never above 29 degrees distant from the Sun so that he is rarely séen he moveth about the Sun as Venus doth and is distant from the Earth 989000 Miles he is lesse than the earth 19 times 8. Of the Heaven of the Moon THe Moon is the lowest of all the Planets being distant from the earth in her mean distance 48760 Miles the Circumference of her Spheare being 306491 Miles she runneth in the space of an hour 12770 miles she is lesse than the Earth 39 times but according to Copernicus 43 times and finisheth her course in 27 dayes 7 hours 43 min. and 6 seconds Having thus taken a brief view of the heavenly Orbs we cannot but admire their vast magnitudes and swift motions and if from hence we can learn nothing yet let us learn this that there is a God and that he is far above all the works of his hands and the Wise-man contemplating thereupon saith We may understand by the heavens how much mightier he is that made them for by the greatness and glory of the Creatures proportionally the Maker of them is seen A most plain and easie Table shewing the true time of the beginning and continuance of the Reign of each King and Queen in England from the Conquest until this year 1662.
