The Obſervation of Munoſius giveth no Parallax, and
fore rendreth the new Star amongſt the higheſt of the fixed. That
of Hainzelius makes it infinitely remote, but with the correction
of an half min. prim. placeth it amongſt the fixed Stars. And the
ſame is collected from Vrſinus, with the correction of 12. min. prim.
The other Aſtronomers have not given us the diſtance above and
below the Pole, ſo that nothing can be concluded from them. By
this time you ſee, that all the obſervations of all theſe men conſpire
againſt the Author, in placing the Star in the Heavenly and
eſt Regions.

work touching the elevating a Phæuomenon above the Horizon
