Quin etiam propriis inter se legibus astra conveniunt, ut certa gerant commercia rerum, inque vicem praestant visus atque auribus haerent aut odium foedusve gerunt, conversaque quaedam in semet proprio ducuntur prona favore.

‘Moreover, the stars have agreements among themselves according to special laws, and so enjoy fixed associations: upon each other they direct their gaze and to each other give ear; else they bear hatred or friendship; some are introverted and in yielding to their self-esteem are drawn into themselves.’
