τὸ δὲ τῶν Διδύμων δωδεκατημόριον καθόλου μέν ἐστιν εὐκρασίας ποιητικόν, κατὰ μέρος δὲ τὰ μὲν προηγούμενα αὐτοῦ δίυγρα καὶ φθαρτικά, τὰ δὲ μέσα εὔκρατα, τὰ δὲ ἑπόμενα μεμιγμένα καὶ ἄτακτα, τὰ δὲ βόρεια πνευματώδη καὶ σεισμοποιά, τὰ δὲ νότια ξηρὰ καὶ καυσώδη. Τὸ δὲ τοῦ Καρκίνου δωδεκατημόριον καθόλου μέν ἐστιν εὐδιεινὸν καὶ θερμόν, κατὰ μέρος δὲ τὰ μὲν προηγούμενα αὐτοῦ καὶ κατὰ τὴν Φάτνην πνιγώδη καὶ σεισμοποιὰ καὶ ἀχλυώδη, τὰ δὲ μέσα εὔκρατα, τὰ δὲ ἑπόμενα πνευματώδη, τὰ δὲ βόρεια καὶ τὰ νότια ἔκπυρα καὶ καυσώδη.
