On the Nature and Construction of the Sun and Fixed Stars

B. de Zirkoff locates the quotations on pp. 3 and 5 of the London publication and notes that their italic emphasis is absent from the original and was added by H. P. Blavatsky. (B. de Zirkoff, BCW 5:267) The Royal Society archive dates the reading of this paper to 18 December 1794 and its publication to 1795 (Philosophical Transactions, vol. 85, pp. 46–72); the 1801 date supplied by B. de Zirkoff requires clarification of the edition. (Royal Society archive: Herschel manuscript read 18 December 1794; Philosophical Transactions 85 (1795), pp. 46–72)
