ἐπιγνόντες τὴν τῶν ἑπτὰ θεῶν κείνησιν τὰ ὅλα σ̣[υ]νέχουσάν τε καὶ διοικοῦσαν ἀφ[θ]ό̣νως ἡμεῖν διὰ κανόνων αἰωνί̣ων ἀπέλειπ̣ον τὴν περὶ αὐτῶν γνῶσιν· ὅθεν ἕκαστον ψηφίσας ἀκριβῶς τέταχά σοι
‘(The ancient Egyptians,) having recognized the motion of the seven (planetary) gods, which comprises and dispenses all things, have generously left us with the knowledge about them through perpetual tables: having precisely calculated each (planet’s position) by those means, I have set them out for you’
