Ἡ δὲ διαίρεσις τῶν ἑξηκοστῶν τούτων καὶ ἐν ταῖς κρικωταῖς σφαίραις ἡ αὐτὴ ὑπάρχει. κατασκευάζονται γὰρ αἱ κρικωταὶ σφαῖραι οὕτως. ἀπὸ τοῦ πόλου ὁ ἀρκτικὸς διίσταται μοίρας λϛ′, ὅπερ ἐστὶν ἑξηκοστὰ ἕξ· ἑξάκις γὰρ ἓξ γίνεται λϛ′. ὁ δὲ ἀρκτικὸς ἀπὸ τοῦ θερινοῦ τροπικοῦ διίσταται μοίρας λ′, ὅπερ ἐστὶν ἑξηκοστὰ πέντε. ὁ δὲ θερινὸς τροπικὸς ἀπὸ τοῦ ἰσημερινοῦ διέστηκε μοίρας κδ′, ὅπερ ἐστὶν ἑξηκοστὰ τέσσαρα.
