Found in 6 Collections and/or Records:

Corrections for Gregory's volume on Apollonius.
D.G. de Apollonii Problemato..., c1690
A study from the ancient geometer.

Fragments of print translation of Apollonius by Halley, 1706
5 unconnected pages from Halley's published translation of Apollonius, dedicated to Henry Aldrich, whose grant had funded the project.
Theorema, May 1708
Geometric and historical notes on Apollonius and some of his peers.
Theorema Cyclometricum, not later than 16 April 1708
Notes on cone sections, probably all connected to Gregory's joint project with Sir Edmund Halley to publish Apollonius and Serenus, two ancient geometers, following the success of the great Euclid project. Gregory was busy with his work overseeing the Scottish Mint, and he notes peevishly that the Dean of Christ Church is to "put upon" him particular resources in Apollonius.
