         completely over about the axis.

      across that part of the meridian which is below the polar

   {Surveyor's transit}. See {Transit}, 5, above.

   {Transit circle} (Astron.), a transit instrument with a
      graduated circle attached, used for observing the time of
      transit and the declination at one observation. See

          axis, on which it revolves with its line of
          collimation in the plane of the meridian, -- used in
          connection with a clock for observing the time of
          transit of a heavenly body over the meridian of a
          place.
      (b) (Surv.) A surveyor's transit. See {Transit}, 5, above.
          

   {Transit trade} (Com.), the business conected with the
