p347 Psalterium Georgii or Georgianum,
sometimes Harpa Georgii, was formed in 1781 by the Abbé Maximilian Hell, and named in honor of King George II of England. On the Stieler Planisphere it is Georg's Harfe, from Bode's Georgs Harffe.
p348 It lies between the fore feet of Taurus and the River Eridanus, its stars all very inconspicuous, unless it be the 4 1/2‑magnitude ο2 Eridani, which was borrowed for its formation. But the loan has been returned, for Psalterium is not now recognized by astronomers.
