καθόλου δέ, ἐπεὶ οὐδʼ ἐνδείκνυσθαι λέγου- σιν αὐτοῖς τοὺς ἀστέρας τὰς τῶν ἀνθρωπίων βίων δια- φοράς, ἀλλʼ αὐτοὶ ταύτας συμπαρατετηρηκέναι ταῖς τῶν ἀστέρων σχέσεσι, φημὶ ὅτι εἰ μελλήσει βέβαιος πρόρρησις γίνεσθαι, δεῖ τὴν αὐτὴν τῶν ἀστέρων σχέσιν μὴ ἅπαξ συμπαρατετηρηκέναι τῷ ἑνὸς τινὸς βίῳ ἀλλὰ καὶ δεύτε- ρον δευτέρου καὶ τρίτον τρίτου, ἵνα ἐκ τοῦ διομιαλίζειν ἐπὶ πάντων τὰς τῶν ἀποτελεσμάτων ἐκβάσεις μάθωμεν, ὅτι τῶν ἀστέρων τοιοῦτον ἀναδεξαμένων τὸν σχηματισ- μὸν τόδε πάντως ἔσται τὸ ἀποβησόμενον·
