The question as to just how it is formed, will be in a measuredependent on another question, as to the direction of the Suns movement. Just here allow a word, to anticipate an objection. It is admitted that com-putations are more exact than diagrams. But there are thirigs with reference towhich computations have nothing to say. All we ask for diagrams, is that theyshall be heard where they have anything to say. And this the more, since whatthey teach is not in conflict, but in harmony with established truth. We have seen that in order to harmonize with the phenomena, any change inthe direction of the Suns movement, must change the diagram,—must change, inother words, the shape of the path of the earth. Remember it is the phenomenathat requires this, and not the laws of force. Under the new condition, the lawof force would doubtless give us new phenomena rather than new shape to thepath of
