Jupiter so accelerates the Earth's Motion in its Orbit round the Sun, that the Diminution of the Years would be too sensible, if the diurnal Motion had not been accelerated nearly in the same Proportion. Wherefore, since we hardly at all remark this considerable Diminution in the Years, from thence I conclude, that the Days suffer much the same Diminution; so that the same Number will answer nearly to a Year.
