‘Incipit liber de iudiciis partium Ptolomei. Et primo de parte fortune, hic accipitur in die a Sole in Lunam, in nocte e converso, et proicitur ab ascendente. Quoniam in primo libro partium terminos et loca posuimus, iudicia sub earundem ministrare curavimus. Pars fortune et eius dominus corpus et que ad corpus attinent — partis significationem aut eius domini hiis 12 mensibus mutatur.’ = Pseudo-Ptolemy, Liber de iudiciis partium (B.8)
