Transeo Damascum, Philadelphiam, Raphianam, Scythopoli primos incolas, et auctorem dabo. Liber pater quum humo nutricem tradidisset, condidit hoc oppidum, ut sepulturæ titulum etiam urbis m�nibus ampliaret. Incolæ deerant; e comitibus suis Scythas delegit, quos ut animi firmaret ad promptam resistendi volentiam, præmium loci nomen dedit. In Seleucia alter Casius mons est, Antiochiæ propinquus, cujus e vertice vigilia adhuc quarta conspicitur globus solis, et brevi corporis circumactu radiis caliginem dissipantibus, illinc nox, hinc dies cernitur. Talis e Casio specula est, ut lucem prius videas, quam auspicetur dies.
