Found in 40 Collections and/or Records:

Part of a paragraph concerning optics, mentioning Dr Barrow in passing.

Lectiones Opticae, 1683
Gregory's notes for his public lectures in optics, Edinburgh, 1683.
Libri hactenus desiderati, probably not before 1684
A short list of partial titles Gregory wished at this moment to acquire. They are about mechanics, mostly, and optics. Thus they may well go with item Coll-33/Quarto A [46], on the reverse, at least generally, apparently part of his Edinburgh lecture notes about the same. In the lower right is a label referring to the reverse side: the document was once folded and stored that way.

Mr Whistons mistakes in his new theory, 3 April 1698
Notanda D.J. phys. et math. Lond: Martio 1693 cum Fatio, 31 March 1693
Notata Math. Nov: 1702, November 1702
This small page appears to go with item 61(2), Newton's refraction table. 1702 was the year that the Astronomiae came out, by which time Gregory was also well under way with his ancient geometers project.
