Περὶ προσταττόντων καὶ ἀκουόντων Ὡσαύτως δὲ προστάττοντα καὶ ἀκούοντα λέγεται τμήματα τὰ κατ̓ ἴσην διάστασιν ἀπὸ τοῦ αὐτοῦ, ἢ καὶ ὁποτέρου, τῶν ἰσημερινῶν σημείων ἐσχηματισμένα διὰ τὸ ἐν τοῖς ἴσοις χρόνοις ἀναφέρεσθαι καὶ ἐπὶ τῶν ἴσων εἶναι παραλλήλων. [p. 76] τούτων δὲ τὰ μὲν ἐν τῷ θερινῷ ἡμικυκλίῳ προστάττοντα καλεῖται, τὰ δ̓ ἐν τῷ χειμερινῷ ὑπακούοντα, διὰ τὸ κατ̓ ἐκεῖνο μὲν γινόμενον τὸν ἥλιον μείζονα ποιεῖν τῆς νυκτὸς τὴν ἡμέραν, κατὰ τοῦτο δὲ ἐλάττω.
