Κολυμβήθρας καὶ φρέατος καὶ κούππας καὶ κίονος καὶ τοίχων καὶ λίθων καὶ πηλῶν καὶ τῶν δοκῶν οἱονδηποτοῦν σχῆμα ἐάν τις εἴπῃ τὸ μῆκος καὶ τὸ πλάτος καὶ τὸ βάθος ἢ τὸ ὕψος, ἐάν τις ζητήσῃ, πόσα κεράμια χωρεῖ, ἢ πόσοι πόδες στερεοὶ γίνονται, εὑρήσομεν οὕτως· πολυπλασιάζω τὸ μῆκος ἐπὶ τὸ πλάτος καὶ τὰ γινόμενα ἐπὶ τὸ βάθος ἢ ἐπὶ τὸ ὕψος· καὶ τοσαῦτα κεράμια ἔσται ἢ πόδες στερεοί.
