91. Τῶν ἴσῳ τάχει φερομένων τὰ πόρρω δοκεῖ βραδύτερον φέρεσθαι. φερέσθω γὰρ δύο σημεῖα τὰ Α, Β ἐπὶ παραλλήλων εὐθειῶν τῶν Α∠, Β ὁμαλῶς· τὰς ἴσας ἄρα ἐν ἴσῳ χρόνῳ διελεύσεται. ἔστωσαν οὖν ἴσαι αἱ Α∠, ΒΕ, καὶ προσπιπτέτωσαν ἀκτῖνες ἀπὸ τοῦ Z ὄμματος αἱ ΖΑ, Ζ∠, ΖΕ. ἐπεὶ οὖν ἐλάττων ἐστὶν ἡ ὑπὸ ΑΖ ∠ γωνία τῆς ὑπὸ ΒΖΕ, ἔλαττον ἄρα τὸ Α ∠ διάστημα τοῦ ΒΕ φανήσεται. ὥστε δόξει τὸ Α βραδύτερον φέρεσθαι τοῦ Β. Ad prop. LIV.
