Owing
to
the
moon's
revolutions
round
the
earth,
the
centre
of
gravity
of
these
two
bodies
travels
in
a
smaller
or
larger
orbit,
and
by
analogy
with
an
isochronous
pendulum,
its
velocity
must
also
vary.

By
the
same
analogy
the
tangential
velocity
of
all
planets
ought
to
be
the
same
(see
above,
note
15).

"Whereas
you,
Galileo,
son
of
the
late
Vincenzo
Galilei,
Florentine,
aged
seventy
years,
were
in
the
year
1615
denounced
to
this
Holy
Office
for
holding
as
true
the
false
doctrine
taught
by
some
that
the
Sun
is
the
centre
of
the
world
and
immovable
and
that
the
Earth
moves,
and
also
with
a
diurnal
motion;
for
having
disciples
to
whom
you
taught
the
same
doctrine;
for
holding
correspondence
with
certain
mathematicians
of
Germany
concerning
the
same;
for
having
printed
certain
letters,
entitled
"On
the
Sunspots",
wherein
you
developed
the
same
doctrine
as
true;
and
for
replying
to
the
objections
from
the
Holy
Scriptures,
which
from
time
to
time
were
urged
against
it,
by
glossing
the
said
Scriptures
according
to
your
own
meaning:
and
whereas
there
was
thereupon
produced
the
copy
of
a
document
in
the
form
of
a
letter,
purporting
to
be
written
by
you
to
one
formerly
your
disciple,
and
in
this
divers
propositions
are
set
forth,
following
the
position
of
Copernicus,
which
are
contrary
to
the
true
sense
and
authority
of
Holy
Scripture:
This
Holy
Tribunal
being
therefore
of
intention
to
proceed
against
the
disorder
and
mischief
thence
resulting,
which
went
on
increasing
to
the
prejudice
of
the
Holy
Faith,
by
command
of
His
Holiness
and
of
the
Most
Eminent
Lords
Cardinals
of
this
supreme
and
universal
Inquisition,
the
two
propositions
of
the
stability
of
the
Sun
and
the
motion
of
the
Earth
were
by
the
theological
Qualifiers
qualified
as
follows:
The
proposition
that
the
Sun
is
the
centre
of
the
world
and
does
not
move
from
its
place
is
absurd
and
false
philosophically
and
formally
heretical,
because
it
is
expressly
contrary
to
the
Holy
Scripture.
The
proposition
that
the
Earth
is
not
the
centre
of
the
world
and
immovable
but
that
it
moves,
and
also
with
a
diurnal
motion,
is
equally
absurd
and
false
philosophically
and
theologically
considered
at
least
erroneous
in
faith.
But
whereas
it
was
desired
at
that
time
to
deal
leniently
with
you,
it
was
decreed
at
the
Holy
Congregation
held
before
His
Holiness
on
the
twenty-fifth
of
February,
1616,
that
his
Eminence
the
Lord
Cardinal
Bellarmine
should
order
you
to
abandon
altogether
the
said
false
doctrine
and,
in
the
event
of
your
refusal,
that
an
injunction
should
be
imposed
upon
you
by
the
Commissary
of
the
Holy
Office
to
give
up
the
said
doctrine
and
not
to
teach
it
to
others,
not
to
defend
it,
nor
even
discuss
it;
and
failing
your
acquiescence
in
this
injunction,
that
you
should
be
imprisoned.
And
in
execution
of
this
decree,
on
the
following
day,
at
the
Palace,
and
in
the
presence
of
his
Eminence,
the
said
Lord
Cardinal
Bellarmine,
after
being
gently
admonished
by
the
said
Lord
Cardinal,
the
command
was
enjoined
upon
you
by
the
Father
Commissary
of
the
Holy
Office
of
that
time,
before
a
notary
and
witnesses,
that
you
were
altogether
to
abandon
the
said
false
opinion
and
not
in
future
to
hold
or
defend
or
teach
it
in
any
way
whatsoever,
neither
verbally
nor
in
writing;
and,
upon
your
promising
to
obey,
you
were
dismissed.
