...matter in the universe has a tendency to attract every other particle with a force proportioned to the mass of the attracting body, and inversely as the square of the distance between them. Gravity, Terrestrial, is that law of nature, in virtue of which all bodies...

...Attraction" il a phrase distinct and plain enough ; for there is such a "law," viz., that the attraction varies directly as the mass of the attracting body, and inversely as the square of the distance between the attracting and attracted masses, but there is no such " law," and no law,...

...the, best measure of force, when the motion of bodies is to be estimated. When we say that a force varies directly as the mass of the attracting body,...and inversely as the square of its distance from the body attracted, we mean that the force of attraction will be measured by the mass divided by the square...

...every particle of matter in the universe is attracted towards every other particle with a force varying directly as the mass of the attracting body, and inversely as the square of the distance between the attracting and attracted bodies. So that if A and B are two bodies, of which...
