To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Many interesting narratives have been published by scientific observers, who have been so fortunate as to witness these phe- nomena. 2926. Baily'a ^ad:f_WheB the disk of the moon, advancing over that of the sun, has reduced the latter to a thin crescent, it was observed by Mr. Francis Baily, that immediately before the beginning, or after the end of complete obscuration, the crescent appeared as a band of brilliant points separated by dark spaces, so as to give to it the appearance of a string ...of brilliant " beads." The phenomenon, which has since been frequently re-observed, thence acquired the name of " Baily's beads." Further observation showed, that before the formation of the " beads " the horns of the crescent were sometimes inter- rupted and broken by black streaks thrown across them. These phenomena are roughly sketched in Jiffs. 798., 799. Fiffs. 800. to 803. are taken from the original sketches of Mr. Baily, representing the progressive disappearance of the beada after the termination of the complete obscuration.
