Austronothus dicitur esse aqua oceani maris. Alio nomine Thetis, et uxor Oceani. Alii dicunt quod est nutrix Iunonis. Cuius forma talis est: media mulier habens mammas bene plenas et pugilos strictos et elevatos. Infra vero umbilicum est quadrupes animal, habens quatuor mamilas sub ventre plenas. Locatur inter Coronam et Herculem. Cum vero sit ymago celi, habet in se stellas parvas numero. 20., disposicio quarum certificatur. In capite habet .7. obscuras, in utraque aure .2. obscuras, in armo dextro .1. obscuram, in pectore .1. claram, in pede priore anterius .1. obscuram, in coxa posteriori .1. claram, circa femur .2., in pede sinistro posterius .2. obscuras, in cauda .3. obscuras. ... Natus sub hoc signo semper erit infirmus, miser et pauper et in desolacione gencium. Unde vitam conducit in hospitali, et hostiatim, requiret cibum suum et cetera. (ed Ackermann, 2009, pp. 226-8)
