Burgess describes a manuscript on astronomy, in which, among other things, the author attacks Ptolemy and Tycho, citing Kepler.

The Copernicans themselves speak of the motion in terms of the Sun as the moving body, and say, 'The sun falls, the sun rises.' Burgess also describes sections dealing with the five senses.
