By Isaac Newton, D. T. Whiteside

This quantity reproduces mathematically major extracts from the extant manuscript checklist of Newton's researches in the course of 1684-5 into the dynamical movement of our bodies less than the deviating motion of a critical strength, and his next struggles thereby to provide an explanation for the saw motions of sun comets and of the moon. the quick tract De motu Corporum, which Newton before everything composed in this subject within the early autumn of 1684, used to be basically equipped round his past facts that during the absence of exterior perturbation a planetary eclipse might be traversed lower than an inverse-square strength pull to its sunlight concentration, but in addition mentioned the best case of resisted ballistic movement. In epilogue, excerpts from his deserted grand scheme for revising the Principia within the early 1690s element Newton's deliberate refinements to his revealed exposition of significant strength, either simplifying and increasing it, introducing therein a singular basic fluxional degree of such strength - yet failing effectively to use it to the first case of conic movement.

Et vim corporis seu corpori insitam qua id conatur perseverare in motu suo secundum lineam rectam. (1) We here reproduce Newton’s original autograph draft of the (now lost) tract ‘De motu Corporum’ which he sent to London in November 1684, and the two successive versions of its major revision in 1685 which he subsequently deposited (in an incomplete state) in Cambridge University Library, purportedly as the text of lectures delivered from the Lucasian chair during 1684-5.
