περὶ πόστον δὲ μέρος τοῦ ὑποκειμένου γένους ἡ διά· θεσις ἐπελεύσεται, τό τε τῆς ἐπισκοτήσεως τῶν ἐκλείψεων μέγεθος ὑποβάλλει καὶ αἱ τῶν τὸ αἴτιον ἐμποιούντων ἀστέρων πρὸς τὸν ἐκλειπτικὸν τόπον σχέσεις· ἑσπέριοι μὲν γὰρ σχηματιζόμενοι πρὸς τὰς ἡλιακὰς ἐκλείψεις, ἑῷοι δὲ πρὸς τὰς σεληνιακὰς ἐπὶ τὸ ἔλαττον ὡς ἐπίπαν διατιθέασι, διαμετροῦντες δὲ ἐπὶ τὸ ἥμισυ, ἑῷοι δὲ συσχηματιζόμενοι πρὸς τὰς ἡλιακὰς ἢ ἑσπέριοι πρὸς τὰς σεληνιακὰς ἐπὶ τὸ πλεῖον.
