"The Construction and Use of the general Table.As the Planets move in Elliptick Orbs, so do the Comets in Parabolick ones, having the Sun in their common Focus, and describe equal Areas in equal Times. But now because all s are similar to one another, therefore if any determinate Part of the Area of a given Parabola, be divided into any Number of Parts at Liberty, there will be a like Division made in all Parabolas, under the same Angles, and the Distances will be proportional: And consequently this one Table of ours will serve for all Comets."
