Foliu[m] IIIr

De opera secunde diei.1

SEcundo die dixit deus. Fiat firmamentum in medio aquaru[m]: et diuidat aquas ab aquis: vocauitq[ue] firmamentum celum.2

Prophetam de celestibus misterijs loquentem audiamus.

Fecit e[ni]m deus firmamentum rotundum mobile cetera sensibilia continens.

Et ex aquis congelatis in modu[m] cristalli solidauid: et in eo fixa sidera.

Spera aut[em] celi cu[m] sideribus in ea fixis duob[us] axis voluit[ur].

Quo[rum] alter septe[m]trionalis boreas:

Alter australis nothus dictus voluit[ur] ab orie[n]te in occidente[m] ta[n]ta celeritate: vt nisi planete contra cursum eam tardarent mundi ruinam faceret.

Et artifex mundi: celi naturam aquis temperauit: ne conflagrat[i]one ignis superioris: elementa inferiora succenderet.

Supra nouem celorum orbes id est septem planetas: [et] speram octauam quam vocant inerrantem nonumq[ue] orbem qui ratione non sensu dep[re]hensus est: primusq[ue] est inter corpora que mouentur: creditum est decimum celum fixum manens [et] quietum: quod motu nullo participet.

Neq[ue] hoc tantum creditum a nostris: maxime iunioribus Strabo3 [et] Beda4: s[ecundum] a pluribus etiam hebreorum: pretereaq[ue] a philosophis [et] mathematicis quibusdam:

E[st]5 quibus satis duos sit attulisse: Abraam hispanum6 astrologum maximu[m] [et] ysaac philosophu[m]7: quo[rum] vterq[ue] hoc attestat[ur]: quin [et] hic ysaac decimu[m] orbem ab Ezechiele8 designatum intelligit per zaphiru[m] in similitudine[m] throni: vt color zaphiri lucis nitorem: throni similitudo immobilitatem significet.

Sed redeamus ad Moysem diuidentem aqua[m] ab aquis medio firmame[n]to.

Triplex e[ni]m partitio corpo[rum] sublunariu[m].

Alia sup[ra] mediam regionem aeris sunt: suprema .s[cilicet]. pars eiusdem elementi [et] purissimus ignis quod totum etheris nomine designatur ibi pura immixta [et] legitima eleme[n]ta.

Alia infra ip[s]am aeris meditulliu[m]: que apud nos sunt vbi elementum purum nullum (neq[ue] e[ni]m purum elementum sensibile) sed mixta omnia ex feculenta crassioreq[ue] parte mundani corporis consta[n]t.

Intercedens regio aeris que etiam dicitur firmame[n]tum. vnde [et] aues sub firmamento celi ab eo volantes introducuntur: ea est regio in qua sublimes ille impressiones apparent: pluuie: niues: fulgura: fulmina: tonitrua: comete [et] cetera id genus.

Recte igitur no[n] solum situ: sed [et] nature p[ro]prietate hoc firmamentum superiora elementa ab inferioribus: quasi aquas ab aquis discriminat [et] distinguit.

Sup[ra] eum pura sunt elementa: infra eam perfecta mixtione ab elementali simplicitate discedunt.

Uocauitq[ue] firmame[n]tum celum: cum tegat omnia sensibilia [et] inuisibilia quod a koylon9 quod est concauu[m] deducu[n]t.
