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 Nike Air Max Sequent Skór position must be followed with the help of the figure. For clearness’ sake we have drawn the circle of the horizon, which is round, but it represents the zone in which we live; for that can be 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 Nike Kobe Venomenom_6 things that face one 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 at the equinox and B, the point opposite, the Puma Clothing place where it rises at the equinox. Let there be another diameter cutting this Salomon X Ultra 2 GTX Kengät 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; Sweter D its rising at the winter solstice, and G its setting at the winter solstice. Draw a diameter from Z to G from NHL Mens Pittsburgh Penguins Black Rink Warrior Pullover Hoodie D to Jansen Harkins Jersey E. Then since those things are locally contrary which are most distant from one another in space, and points diametrically opposite are most distant from one another, those winds must necessarily be contrary to one another that blow from opposite ends of a Rick Nash Jersey 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 sets at the Belstaff Brian Długo Kurtki equinox. Its contrary is Apeliotes blowing from B the point where the sun rises at the equinox. The wind blowing from H, the north, is the true north wind, called Aparctias: while Notus blowing from O is Antoine Vermette Jersey its Michal Neuvirth Jersey 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 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 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 their contraries.
There are other winds which have no contraries. Duvetica Miehet untuvaliivi 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:
