281—287. Ἧστινος Εὐρώπης τὴν ἐσχάτην γωνίαν πλησίον τῶν Ἡρακλεωτικῶν στηλῶν τῶν μεγαλοψύχων Ἰβήρων, ἤγουν Ἱσπανῶν, ἔθνη οἰκοῦσιν, ἐπὶ τὸ μῆκος τῆς ἠπείρου, ἤγουν χώρας, τετραμμένα· ὅπου τοῦ βορείου ὠκεανοῦ ψυχρὸς ῥοῦς κέχυται, ὅπου καὶ οἱ Βρετανοὶ καὶ τὰ λευκὰ ἢ καλὰ ἔθνη τῶν πολεμικῶν Γερμανῶν κατοικοῦσι παρεκτεινόμενα καὶ ἐφαπλούμενα ἐπὶ τὰς ἄκρας καὶ τὰς ἐξοχὰς τοῦ Ἑρκυνίο δρυμοῦ. Τὴν δὲ γῆν ἐκείνην, δηλονότι τὴν Ἰβηρίαν, τῷ σχήματι βοείῃ βύρσῃ ὁμοίαν εἶναι λέγουσιν.
