Excerpt from Werke, Vol. 7
Quamprimum motum planetae novi anno 1781 detecti cum hypothesi parabolica conciliari non posse cognitum est, astronomi orbitam circularem illi adaptare inchoaverunt, quod negotium per calculu - m perfacil'em ac sim plicam absolvitur. Fausta quadam fortuna orbita huius planctae mediocriter tantum excentrica erat, quo pacto elementa per suppositionem illam eruta saltem approximationem qualemcunque suppeditabant, cui dein determina tionem elementorum ellipticorum superstruere licuit. Accedebant plura alia per0pportuna. Quippe tardus planetae motus, perparvaque orbitae ad planum eeliptioae inclinatio non solum calculos longe simplicioms reddebant, metho dosque speciales aliis casibus baud accommodandas in usum vocare concede bant, sed metum quoque dissipabant, ne planeta. Radiis Solis immersus postea, quaeritantium curas eluderet (qui metus alias, praesertim si insuper lumen minus vividum fuisset, utique animos turbare potuiss t), quo pacto accuratior orbitae determinatio tuto diiferri poterat, donec ex observationibus frequen tioribus magisque remotis eligere liceret, quae ad propositum maxime commo dae viderentur.
