keen frost, enabled the eye to view the
myriads of planets and consultations as
they cannot be seen on warm nights when
the air is full of organic substances and

clear cold nights of winter, when there is
no moon. and even the occasional meteors
appear to be more brilliant than they are
at other seasons.
