Excerpt from Fixed Stars, or an Analyzation and Refutation of Astrology: The Principles of This Science Being Plainly Laid Open, and Their Absurdity and Wickedness Clearly Demonstrated; To Which Is Added, Many Anecdotes Besides all this, Pray Messrs. Astrologers, what natures or qualities do you ascribe to these New Planets above-mentioned? Is Herschel to be an infortunate or otherwise And what qualities are Harding, Piazzi and the two Olbers to have? Pray, Sirs, let us know as soon as possible. Nor need you be long about the business, because, you can easily do as your predecessors have done by the old number Seren, namely, ascribe to them what qualities you please, and then say and swear that it is so, because itcis so, which is said to be a woman's argument!
