To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It lies almost exactly towards the north, and is raised from 50" to 53° (according to the season and hour) above the horizon. There is an easy method of finding it.
We must fii'st find the Greater Bear. It will be seen from Plate 1, that on a spring evening the seven conspicuous stars of this constellation are to be looked for towards the north-east, about half way between the horizon and the point overhead (or 34 ' A HALF-HOUR WITH zenitK), the length of the set of -stars being vertical.
On a ...summer's evening the Great Bear is nearly- overhead. On an autumn evening ho is towards the north-west, the length of the set of seven being some- what inclined to the horizon. Finally, on a winter's evening, he is low down towards the north, the length of the set of seven stars being nearly in a horizontal direction.
Having found the seven stars, we make use of the pointers a and yS (shown in Plate 1) to indicate the place of the Pole-star, whose distance from the pointer a is rather more than three times the dis- tance of a from /3.
