Excerpt from On the Theory of the Moon, Vol. 10: And on the Pertubations of the Planets

Shortly after the publication of M. Plana's work, I began to consider this subject; and between 1834 and 1840 I published the first four parts of this work. I endeavoured to obtain the coefficients directly by means of the equations of motion, which had always been employed in determining the perturbations of the planets, and in which the time is the independent variable; still maintaining the literal development, as in M. Plana's work.
