Multa major diversitas est inter illas ipsas gentes, quam de quibiis jam dixi, quum propter varias temporum mutationes, turn ob regionis naturam. 78. Habet autem eodem plane mode, quemadmodum et circa ali- orum bominum terras accidit. Ubi enim tempera magnas mutationes faciunt et frequentissimas^ illic et regie agrestis et maxime inaequalis existit, inveniasque et montes plu- rimos et densos, itemque campos et prata. Ubi autem non valde variant tempera, illic asqualissima regie est, 79. quod idem et de bominibus ipsis est intelligendum. Si quis enim recte consideret, videbit quorundam naturam, mon- tanis, sylvosis ac asperis locis similem esse, aliorum vero aquosa ac exilia loca refer re : sicut qui dam pratorum ac paludum naturam pras se ferunt, atque alii sunt quorum planitiebus nudisque ac siccis terris constitutio similis existit. Tem- pera enim quas formarum naturam variant, sunt diversa: quum ergo inter sese fuerint maxime diversa, varias et multiplices formas pro- ducunt.$
