‘Magne compositionis Claudii Ptolemei libri a Georgio Trapezuntio traducti incipiunt feliciter. Prefatio autoris. Capitulum primum. <P>eroptime mihi videtur, o Syre, qui bene phylosophati sunt, speculativam phylosophie partem ab activa separasse. Nam etsi active accidat parti — idoneum hic modum ac finem hec est compositio consecuta.’ = Ptolemy, Almagesti (tr. George of Trebizond) (A.1.4)
