His obferuationibus docemur, lunam efleglobum opacum, qui a fole lucem mutuatur, quaalterum tantum haemilpliaerium illuflratur, alte-rum propria luce caret, quod phafium fpedaculaluculenter probant. Ex aliis quoque obferuationi-bus conflat, lunam, fub fole deficiente collocatam,nigram et luce carentem faciem nobis obuei tere,eandemque vmbrae terreflri profundius immerlam,nonnunquam totam, vel eius faltem partem, ferenocoelo, tempore eclipfis lunaris, prorfus ex oculisfuifle ereptam; vt de opacitate lunae abfoluta nul-lum dubium amplius fupereffe poflit.
