The central mountain is small but conspicuous. A large unnamed enclosure extends N. of Segner: it is larger than Schiller, and is surrounded by a lofty barrier. The bright plain between this and the latter is worth examination under a low sun. ZUCHIUS. Is situated on the S.E. of Segner, which it slightly overlaps.

KIRCHER. A ring-plain, about 45 miles in diameter, S. of Bettinus, remarkable also for its very lofty rampart, which on the S. attains the tremendous height of nearly 18,000 feet above the floor, which appears to be devoid of detail. WILSON. The most southerly of the chain of five massive ring-plains, extending in an almost unbroken line from Segner and differing only very slightly in size.

SEGNER. A fine ring-plain, 46 miles in diameter, on the S.E. side of Schiller, with a linear border on every side except the N. At a peak on the W., whose shadow is very remarkable, it rises to a height of more than 8000 feet above the outer surface. There is a crater on the S.W. wall, another on the N.W. wall, and several depressions on the outer slope on this side.

So she made overture to him of her services, was engaged and taken aboard the ship, assuming the name Sicurano da Finale.
