καὶ ὁ ἐν ὕψει κείμενος ἀστὴρ τὸν ἐκ τοσούτου καθήμενον διαστήματος, ὥσπερ ἐγγὺς καὶ πλησίον παρών, οὕτω μετὰ ἀκριβείας χειραγωγεῖ καὶ πρὸς λιμένας ὁρμίζει, φωνὴν μὲν οὐκ ἀφιείς, τῇ δὲ ὄψει δεικνὺς αὐτοῖς τὰς ὁδοὺς καὶ τὴν θάλασσαν τέμνειν αὐτοῖς χαριζόμενος μετ' ἀσφαλείας, καιροὺς ὑποδεικνύς, ὥστε νῦν μὲν εἴσω τοῦ λιμένος κατέχειν τὸ πλοῖον, νῦν δὲ θαρροῦντας εἰς τὸ πέλαγος ἐξάγειν καὶ μὴ διὰ τὴν τοῦ μέλλοντος ἀδηλίαν ἀπροόπτως εἰς χειμέριον ἐμπίπτοντας ἡμέραν ναυάγιον ὑπομένειν.
