Astronomy compels the soul to look upwards and leads us from this world to another.

It is clear to everyone that astronomy at all events compels the soul to look upwards, and draws it from the things of this world to the other.

O how loud It calls devotion! genuine growth of night! Devotion! daughter of Astronomy! As undevout Astronomer is mad.

There's some ill planet reigns. I must be patient till the heavens look With an aspect more favorable.
