Sit data linea ab.
Dividatur in duas partes
secundum datam rationem
in puncto, k.
Sit ak maior, kb minor.
producatur, ab, ad f, ita
ut
[Translation: Let there be a given line ab. Divide it into two parts according to the given ratio at the point k. Let ak be greater, kb smaller. Extend ab to f so that:
Centro, f, intervallo fk
fiat periferia khg.
Dico quod:
ubicunque signatur in periferia
punctum, h,
[Translation: With centre f and radius fk, draw the circumference khg.
I say that, wherever the point h is placed on the circumference:
Nam per construcitonem
[…]
In duobus triangulis afh et hfb
angulus ad, f, est
[Translation: For by the construction

In the two triangles afh and hfb the agnle at f is shared.
Nullum punctum extra periferiam vel intra,
habet eandem conditionem.
Sit punctum d, extra periferiam.
agatur da, et db.
db secabit periferiam in puncto h.
agatur ha, hb
[Translation: No point outside the circumference or inside has the same conditions.
Let the point d be outside the circumference.
Construct da and db.
db will cut the circumference at the point h.
Construct ha and hb.
per supra demonstrata:
[…]
Dico quod: da, et db non sunt in eadem
[Translation: By what was demosntrated above:

I say that da and db are not in the same ratio.
Hoc est unum latus trianglui maius est
duobus reliquis quod est
[Translation: That is, one side of the triangle is greater than the two others, which is ]
Simili ratione probabitur quod punctum, c
intra circulum idem feret absurdum.
videlicet quod ah sit maior quam ac+ch.
Quare nullum punctum
extra vel intra &
[Translation: By similar reasoning it may be proved that the point c inside the circle leades to the same absurdity, namely that ah is greater than ac+ch.
Whence no point outside or inside ]
