First sentence: I. IF through the point A, without the plane of the circle BDZC, a right line AZ be extended indefinitely both ways, and if (while the point A remains fixt) this line be carried round the whole periphery of the circle; each of the furfaces generated by this motion is called a conical surface, and both together are called opposite surfaces.
