Excerpt:

Seven Suns were also seen shining together in the sky! and at night (if indeed we can call it "night") as many as seven moons!

(What a haunt for lovers and poets!)

Five Suns were also beheld.

What Liars those Chinese writers are!

Very good; but why not denounce all our own Arctic navigators as a pack of Liars? They all tell about more Suns than one! A picture of Five is furnished by a most eminent explorer. The dictionaries and cyclopedias of our careful publishers call the appearance of two or more suns (or moons) a Parhelion. The number of the multiplied "luminaries" never exceeds Ten. There actually is a "Place of Ten Suns."

Ten Suns say the Ancients.

Ten Suns say the Moderns.
