COS'WAY, Ricn.ED (1740-1S21). An Eng- lish miniature-painter, born at Tiverton. He studied in a London drawins-school. while serv- ing as waiting-man there, and in 1771 became a member of the Royal Academy. He painted in oil and water-color, but his fame rests principally on his miniatures, most of which were of the aristocracy. COT, icot, PiERBE AuGUSTE (1837-83). A French painter, pupil of Cogniet. Cabanel, and Bouguereau. He painted at first historical sub- jects, later also portraits, and acquired great reputation, especially by his female heads. Among his most noteworthy works are: "Spring Time;" "Day of the Dead at the Campo Santo of Pisa;" "Dionisia :" "Prometheus:" "Medita- tion ;" and ilireille." in the Luxembourg Gal- lery. He was decorated with the cross of the Legion of Honor. CCTA, RoDRiGO C. DE Maguaque. A Spanish poet of the fifteenth century, born at Toledo. His reputation rests upon the dainty, wittj' Diiilogo entre el .Inior )/ un cabalUro vicjo, which ap- peared first at Modena in 1569. The authorship of this poem has been much disputed, but it seems quite safe to attribute it to C'ota. He wrote Las Coplas dc Mingo lierulgo (e.l472), and may have written the first act of the comedy Celestina (1480), which was finished by Rojas. He also produced some satiric poems. COTAN'GENT. See Trigonometry. COTE-D'OB, kfit'dor' (Fr., golden hill). A department in the cast of France (q.v.), for- merly part of the Province of Burgundy (Ma)): France, L 4). Area, 3383 square miles; popula- tion, in 1806, 366,054; in 1901, 361,626. The surface is in general elevated, and is traversed by a chain of hills forming the connecting link between the Cevennes and the Vosges. A por- tion of that range, the Cote-d'Or ('golden hill'), which gives its name to the department, is so called on account of the excellence of tlie wines produced on its declivities. A great part of the dejjartment is covered with forests. The valleys and plains are fertile, and there is good pasture- land, but agriculture is in a backward state. Cote-d'Or is watered by the Seine, which rises in the northwest, and by several of its affluents; by the Saone, and by the Arroux, a tributary of the Loire. Capital, Dijon. COTELIEE, koflya', or COT'ELE'RIUS, Jea>' Baftiste (1627-80). A French Hellenist. He was born in Nfmes. studied theology and phi- losophy in Paris, and in 1054 became counselor of the Archbishop of Embrun. He was appointed assistant librarian in the Royal Library in 1667, and in 1676 he became professor of Greek at the Coll&ge de France. His principal publication, and one which made him widely famous, was his edition of the Sanetorutn Patrum qui Tempori- hus Apostolicis Floruerunt Opera Greece et La- tine (Paris, 1672). It was republished by Le- clerc in 1698, and another edition ot it appeared in 1724. COTES, kots, Roger (1682-1716). An Eng- lish mathematician and physicist. He was born at Burbage, in Leicestershire; was graduated at Trinity College, Cambridge ; became a fellow in 1705; and. in 1706. on the recommendation of Newton, Whiston, and Bentle3', was made Plu- mian professor of astronomy. Cotes was editor of the second edition of Xewton's Principia (1713). Various mathematical papers of his own, bearing on logarithms, trigonometry, and geometry, were published posthumously under the title /7((r»ioni'o Mensurarnm (Cambridge. 1722). Several theorems are known by his name — e.g. to determine the harmonic mean between the seg- ments of a secant to a curve of the jith order reckoned from a fixed point (see Curves; Circle) ; and also the well-known theorem of trigonometry: If A is any point on the radius OB of circle 0, and if the circumference is di- vided into n equal parts BP„ P,P~, P.Pj and into 2h equal parts BQ„ Q,P„ P^Q. .". . . , the product AP, • AP, ■ AP, • . . .

Newton remarked of him: "If Cotes had lived, we might have known something." COTES, Sara .Teannette Duncan (1861—). An English novelist. She was born at Brant-
