ons, which can blow simultaneously with which, and which cannot, their names and number, and any other of their affections that have not been treated in the ‘particular questions’. What we say about their position must be followed with the help of the figure. For clearness’ sake we have drawn the circle of the horizon, which Mario Gotze Jersey is round, but it represents the zone in which we live; for that can be Accessories divided in the same way. Let us also begin by laying down that those things are locally contrary which are locally most distant from one another, just as things specifically most remote from one another are specific contraries. Now things that face one Nike Free Run 2 another from opposite ends of a diameter are locally most distant from one another. (See diagram.)
Let A be the point where the sun sets Celtic Børn Fodboldtrøjer at the equinox and B, the point opposite, the place where it rises at the equinox. Let there be another diameter cutting this at right angles, and let the point H on it be the north and its diametrical opposite O the south. Let Z be the rising of the sun at the summer solstice and E its setting at the summer solstice; D its rising at the winter solstice, and G its setting at the winter solstice. Draw a diameter from Z to G from D to E. Then since those things are locally contrary which are most distant Mousa Dembele Jersey from one another in space, and points diametrically opposite are most distant from one another, Edinson Cavani Pelipaidat those winds must necessarily be contrary to one another that blow from opposite ends of a diameter.
The names of the winds according to their position are these. Zephyrus is the wind that blows from A, this being the point where the sun Stefano Sturaro Jersey sets at the equinox. Its contrary is Apeliotes blowing from B the Pierre Aubameyang Pelipaidat point where the sun rises at the equinox. The wind blowing from Canada Goose Victoria Parka H, the north, is the true north wind, called Aparctias: while Notus blowing from O is its contrary; for this point is the south and O is contrary to H, being diametrically opposite to it. Caecias blows from Z, where the sun rises at the summer solstice. Its contrary is not the wind blowing from E but Lips blowing from G. For Lips blows from the point where the sun sets at the winter solstice and Rivet Short Čevlji 5829 is diametrically opposite to Caecias: so it is its contrary. Eurus blows from D, coming from the point where the sun rises at the winter solstice. It borders on Notus, and so we often find that people speak of ‘Euro-Noti’. Its contrary is not Lips blowing from G but the Vasilis Torosidis Jersey wind that blows from E which some call Argestes, some Olympias, and some Sciron. This blows from the point where the sun sets at the summer solstice, and is the only wind that is diametrically opposite to Eurus. These are the winds that are diametrically opposite to one another and Nike Air Maxs 90 Moški their contraries.
There are other winds which have no contraries. The wind they call Thrascias, which lies between Argestes and Aparctias, blows from I; and the wind called Meses, which lies between Caecias and Aparctias, from K. (The line IK nearly coincides with the ever visible circle, but not quite.) These winds have no contraries. Meses haslinks:
