الصفحة 181 - Eye-glafTes, where the Rays which form the extreme Parts of the Image are brought together in order to enter the Pupil of the Eye, as explained above. It is apparent alfo, that the nearer the Eye is placed to the Eye-glafs of this Telefcope, the larger is the Area feen through it ; for, being placed clofe to the Glafs, as in the Figure, it admits Rays that come from A and B, the Extremities of the Objed, which it could not if it was placed farther off.
