O 194 Pioneers of Science LECT. He said, " What path will a body describe if it be attracted by a centre with a force varying as the inverse square of the distance. " To which Newton at once replied, " An ellipse. " "How on earth do you know?" said Halley in amazement. " Why, I have calculated it, " and began hunting about for the paper. He actually couldn't find it just then, but sent it him shortly by post, and with it much m0 re in fact, what appeared to be a complete treatise on motion in g...eneral. With his valuable burden Halley hastened to the Eoyal Society and told them what he had discovered. The Society at his representation wrote to Mr. Newton asking leave that it might be printed. To this he consented ; but the Eoyal Society wisely appointed Mr. Halley to see after him and jog his memory, in case he forgot about it. However, he set to work to polish it up and finish it, and added to it a great number of later develop- ments and embellishments, especiaUy the part concerning the lunar theory, which gave him a deal of trouble and no wonder ; for in the way he has put it there never was a man yet living who could have done the same thing.
