Of Maurolicus and Hainzelius, from which the Star is collected to have been diſtant from the centre leſſe than 3 ſemidiameters of the Earth, the difference of Parallaxes being 4 gr. 42 m.30 ſec.3 ſemid.2. And is calculated on the obſervations of Hain-zelius, with Parall. of 8. m. 30 ſec. and its di-ſtance from the centre is computed to be more than25 ſemid.3. And upon the obſervations of Tycho and Hain-zelius, with Parall. of 10 m. and the diſtance of the centre is collected to be little leſſe than19 ſemid.4. And upon the obſervations of Tycho and the Landgrave, with Parall. of 14 m. the diſtance from the centre is made to be about10 ſemid.5. And upon the obſervations of Hainzelius and Gemma, with Parall. of 42 m. 30 ſec. whereby the diſtance is gathered to be about4 ſemid.6. And upon the obſervations of the Landgraveand Camerarius, with Parall. of 8 m. the di-ſtance is concluded to be about4 ſemid.7. And upon the obſervations of Tycho and Hage-cius, with Parall. of 6 m. and the diſtance is made31 ſemid.8. And upon the obſervations of Hagecius and Vr-ſinus with Parall. of 43 m. and the ſtars diſtance from the ſuperficies of the Earth is rendred1/2 ſemid.9. And upon the obſervations of Landgravius and Buſchius, with Parall. of 15 m. and the di-ſtance from the ſuperficies of the Earth is by ſupputation1/48 ſemid.10. And upon the obſervations of Maurolice and Munocius, with Parall. of 4 m. 30 ſec. and the compnted diſtance from the Earths ſurface is1/5 ſemid.11. And upon the obſervations of Munocius and Gemma, with Parall. of 55 m. and the diſtance from the centre is rendred13 ſemid.
