To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
DISTANCE OF FIXED STARS. 191 motion 6 V *974*), are, the one 3, and the other 4 times as far from the Sun as a Centauri, which has a proper motion of 3' x *58. Yolume, mass, intensity of light, proper motion ( 316 ), and distance from our solar system, are certainly in very various and complicated relations to each other. Al- though, therefore, it may be generally probable that the brightest stars are the nearest, yet there may be individual cases of very remote small stars whose photospheres a...nd surfaces may, from the nature of their physical constitution, support a very intense luminous process. Stars, which on account of their brightness we reckon as belonging to the 1st magnitude, may thus be really more distant from us than stars which we call of the 4th, 5th, or 6th magni- tudes. If we descend from the consideration of the great sidereal stratum, of which our solar system is a part, to the subordinate particular system of our planetary world, and step by step, still lower, to the systems of Jupiter and Saturn with their respective satellites, we see central bodies surrounded by masses in which the succession of magni- tudes and of intensities of reflected light does not appear to depend at all on distance.
