Ptolemaeus Arabus et Latinus

_ (the underscore) is the placeholder for exactly one character.
% (the percent sign) is the placeholder for no, one or more than one character.
%% (two percent signs) is the placeholder for no, one or more than one character, but not for blank space (so that a search ends at word boundaries).

At the beginning and at the end, these placeholders are superfluous.

‘Incipiunt reprobationes Geber super Almagest Tholomei de Alfiladelfia in quibus noscitur abreviatio artis. Scientia species habet quarum melior post scientiam — sunt digniores ut evanescant et destruantur, et hoc est propositum. Finis noni libri et est ultimus librorum commenti Geber super Almagesti Ptholomei. Deo gratias. Amen.’
