Roberti Simson, M.D. matheseos nuper in academia Glasguensi professoris Opera quaedam reliqua, scilicet, I. Apollonii pergaei de sectione determinata libri II. restituti, duobus insuper libris aucti. II. Porismatum liber, quo doctrinam Hanc Veterum Geometrarum Ab Oblivione Vindicare, Et Ad Captum Hodiernorum Adumbrare Constitutum est. III. De Logarithmis Liber. IV. De Limitibus Quantitatum Et Rationum, fragmentum. V. Appendix pauca continens problemata ad Illustrandam Praecipue Veterum Geometrarum analysin. Nunc primum post auctoris mortem in lucem edita impensis quidem Philippi comitis Stanhope, cura vero jacobi clow in eadem academia philosophiae professoris, cui, auctor omnia sua manuscripta testamento legaverat. Gratum, ut speratur, geometris munus futurum, nec scriptoris, Jam Clarissimi, famae offecturum.
