Yew trees are often found in old churchyards. It is said that they were planted there in times when people used bows and arrows, so that their branches might be cut to make bows because they are very tough and strong. The leaves of the yew are poisonous, and cattle or ponies should not be allowed to eat them. The red and purple berries, that look like tiny jam-tarts, are also poisonous.

and that consequently, from such an object as we have pointed out in the paper referred to, a ray of light could not possibly have reached the telescope at the time we are looking into it, had it not begun its flight at least one million, and nine hundred & ten thousand years ago.

The proof of this rests upon the known velocity of light, by which we calculate that rays from the star Sirius for instance cannot be less that six years and nearly three months and a half coming to the earth;

and by viewing others less and less distant so have the same conviction of existing objects, in different periods, brought from that immense duration down to the present time.

respect to what is past. For by looking through it at one of the most distant nebula that was visible in it, we may be convinced, by actual inspection, that we see an object, which certainly was in the state we now perceive it, above nineteen hundred thousand years ago;

Appendix to the Paper on the power of penetrating into Space by telescopes*

After having shewn the extent of the power of my 40-foot telescope to penetrate into Space, I should have added page 84, that this instrument may be said to have also a power of penetrating into time: at least with

It just occurred to me that in English you can tack on a vacuously _false_ disjunction as a rhetorical flourish showing your conviction: "... or I'm a monkey's uncle!"

4 bl*nd
4 ch*ck
4 cl*ck
4 fl*ck
4 st*ck

4 sl*sh
