πάλιν ὁ τῆς Ἀφροδίτης ὑγραντικὸς ὢν φύσει καὶ μᾶλλον ἐν τοῖς Ἰχθύσιν, ἐν οἷς ἡ τοὺ ὑγροῦ ἔαρος ἀρχὴ προσημαίνει, μαίνει, καὶ αὐτὸς αὐξάνων τὴν οἰκείαν δύναμιν, τὸ μὲν ὕψωμα ἔσχεν ἐν τοῖς Ἰχθύσι, τὸ δὲ ταπείνωμα ἐν τῇ Παρθένῳ. ὁ δὲ τοῦ Ἑρμοῦ τὸ ἐναντίον μᾶλλον ὑπόξηρος ὢν εἰκότως κατὰ τὸ ἀντικείμενον ἐν μὲν τῇ Παρθένῳ, καθ’ ἣν τὸ ξηρὸν μετόπωρον προσημαίνει, καὶ αὐτὸς ὥσπερ ὑψοῦται, κατὰ δὲ Ἰχθύας ὥσπερ ταπεινοῦται.
