If any person and you agree to walk round a small house, he 20 yards from it and you 30; he takes three steps for your two, you will see that he surrounds the house more than once before he is hid behind it; and when he appears again on your other hand, he will be much longer in your sight than he is mak- ing his whole round. Continue this for a few circles and you cannot fail to understand it. You are the Earth, the other person Venus, and the house the Sun. III. The Earth is the third planet ...from the Sun, and revolves round him, as you have seen, in 365 1-4 days, at the [ 27 ] the rate of 60, 000 miles each hour, and at the distance of 96, 000, 000 of miles from him; while her secondary or sa- tellite, the Moon, attends her through the whole of her an- nual course, but partakes not of her daily motion round her axis: instead of which, the Moon has an orbit of about 1, 400, 000 miles around the Earth, from change to change; and consequently travels so much more than the Earth eve- ry month.
