The stars (to come a little nearer the Text) observed and numbered by Students in this great volume of the heavens, are distinguished into forty and one images or representations, whereof some (for learnings sake) are fancied the images of men and women, others the images of beasts and fishes,1 others the images of things without life. Of these images, twelve are in the Zodiac, commonly called the twelve signs. In the Southern part of the sphere eleven of those signs are placed, and in the Northern eighteen, which added to twelve in the Zodiac, make up the number of forty and one.
