everything returns in greenery at this time, by the right nature of
the season and not otherwise. Above the sun there are three stars,
clear and shining, one below and the other above. These are
Mars, Saturn, and Jupiter. Saturn is the highest of the seven,

qualities that
anything else in
the firmament, and they
work more
skillfully. The wise philosophers of old
