Archimedes Texts

Animals would not grow weary of their Motion, proceeding as that which is assigned to the Terrestrial Globe.	244
The Cause of the wearinesse that attends the Motion of Animals.	244
The Motion of an Animal is rather to be called Violent than Natural.	244
ANNUAL MOTION: The Annual Motionof the Earth must cause a constant and strong Winde.	228
The Errour os the Antagonist of Copernicus is manifest, in that he declareth that the Annual and Diurnal Motion belonging to the Earth, are both one way, and not contrary.	235
The Annual Motion of the Earth mixing with the Motions of the other Planets, produce extravagant Appearances.	296
Rest, Annual Motion, and the Diurnal, ought to be distributed betwixt the Sun, Earth, and Firmament.	300
Granting to the Earth the Annual, it must of hecessity have the Diurnal Motion assigned to it.	300
The sole Annual Motion of the Earth, causeth great inequality in the Motions of the Planets.	310
A Demonstration of the inequalities of the three superiour Planets dependent on the Annual Motion of the Earth.	310
The Annual Motion of the Earth most apt to render a reason of the Exorbitance of the five Planets.	312
Argument of Tycho against the Annual Motion, from the invariable Elevation of the Pole.	338
Upon the Annual Motion os the Earth, alteration may ensue in some Fixed Stars, not in the Pole.	341
The Parallogisme of those who believe that in the Annual Motion great alterations are to be made about the Elevation of the Fixed Stars, is confuted.	341
Enquiry is made what mutations, and in what Stars, are to be discovered by means of the Earths Annual Motion.	342
Astronomers having omitted to instance what alterations those are that may be derived from the Annual Motion of the Earth, do thereby testifie that they never rightly understood the same.	343
The Anuual Motion made by the Centre of the Earth under the Ecliptick, and the Diurnal Motion made by the Earth about its own Centre.	344
Objections against the Earths Annual Motiontaken from the Fixed Stars placed in the Ecliptick.	345
An Indice or Observation in the Fixed Stars like to that which is seen in the Planets, is an Argument of the Earths Annual Motion.	347
The Suns Annual Motion how it cometh to passe, according to Copernicus.	355
The Annual and Diurnal Motion are consistent in the Earth.	362
Three wayes of altering the proportion of the Additions of the Diurnal Revolution to the Annual Motion.	409
The Earths Annual Motion thorow the Ecliptick unequal, by reason of the Moons Motion.	413
The Causes of the inequality of the Additions and Substractions of the Diurnal Conversion from the Annual Motion.	418
CIRCULAR MOTION: Circular and Right Motion are simple, as proceeding in simple Lines.	6
The Circular Motion is never acquired Naturally, unlesse Right Motion precede it.	18
Circular Motion perpetually uniforme.	18
In the Circular Motion every point in the Circumference is the beginning and end.	20
Circular Motion onely is Uniforme.	20
Circular Motion may be continued pcrpetually.	20
Circular Motion onely and Rest are apt to conserve Order.	20
To the Circular Motion no other Motion is contrary.	26
Circular Motions are not contrary, according to Aristotle.	100
The Motion of the Parts of the Earth returning to their Whole, may be Circular.	237
The Velocity in the Circular Motion encreaseth according to the encrease of the Diameter of the Circle.	242
Circular Motion is truly simple and perpetual.	495
Circular Motion belongeth to the Whole Body, and the Right to its Parts.	496
Circular and Right Motion are coincident, and may consist together in the same Body.	496
COMMON MOTION: A notable Instance of Sagredus, to shew the nonoperating of Common Motion.	151
An Experiment that sheweth how the Common Motion is imperceptible.	224
The concurrence of the Elements in a Common Motion imports no more than their concurrence in a Common Rest.	239
Common Motion is as if it never were.	223, 340
COMPRESSIVE MOTION: Compressive Motion is proper to Gravity, Extensive to Levity.	493
