COluri ſunt duo circuli in Sphæra, vnus quidem tranſit
per principia Arietis & Libræ, alter verò per principia
Cancri & Capricorni, ac ſeſe diſpeſcentes ad angulos
rectos Sphærales circa polos mundi.

17. ¶ De quatuor Circulis minoribus.

CAncri Circulus, qui & Solſtitialis dicitur, eſt ille, qui
ab æquinoctiali verſus Septentrionem. 23. gradibus,
& . 30. minutis diſtat. In quem cùm Sol ſe receperit, æſti
uam reciprocationem peragit, longiſſimusq́ue dies an-
ni, breuiſſimaq́ue nox erit. A Græcis Tropicus, quaſi
verſilis appellatur.

CApricorni Circulus, qui & Brumalis dicitur, is eſt, qui vlti-
mo, à ſole deſcribitur verſus Auſtrum: in quo Sol brumalem
reciprocationem facit, diemq́ue efficit breuiſſimam, & no-
ctem prolixiorem.

ARcticus Circulus eſt, qui ex omni parte à polo mundi. 23. grad. 30. mi. diſtat, & à priori minoris Vrſæ pede deſcribitur.

ANtarcticus verò Circulus eſt, qui deſcribitur à polo zodiaci
Antarctico, & eſt æqualis & æquidiſtans Arctico circulo, to-
tus nobis ſub terris merſus.

18. ¶ Sequitur materialis figura Circulorum Sphæræ.
