Abstract
IN these pages Dr. Dreyer has given us an interesting collection of papers on comets, not hitherto accessible to the learned world. After the concluding page of the well-known “De Mundi Etherei recenti-:oribus Phaenomenis “we have a treatise of sixteen -pages in German, now printed for the first time, on the comet of 1577. Next come nine pages in Latin on the comet of 1585, printed at Uraniborg in the “Diarium astrologicum et metheorologicum “of Elias Olai Cimber for 1586, and seven pages in the same language now first published on the same comet. These last two treatises are mainly astrological, as is no small part of the treatise on the comet of 1577.
