Engonasis, in some catalogues called Hercules, because he is figured kneeling [Greek: en gonasin] (on his knees).

[Greek: Engonasin kaleous'], as Aratus says, they call Engonasis.
[180] The crown is placed under the feet of Hercules in the Atlas Coelestis; but Ophiuchus ([Greek: Ophiouchos]), the Snake-holder, is placed in the map by Flamsteed as described here by Aratus; and their heads almost meet.
[181] The Scorpion.

Ophiuchus, though a northern constellation, is not far from that part of the zodiac where the Scorpion is, which is one of the six southern signs.
[182] The Wain of seven stars.
[183] The Wain-driver.

This northern constellation is, in our present maps, figured with a club in his right hand behind the Greater Bear.
[184] In some modern maps Arcturus, a star of the first magnitude, is placed in the belt that is round the waist of Booetes.

Cicero says _subter praecordia_, which is about the waist; and Aratus says [Greek: hypo zone], under the belt.
[185] _Sub caput Arcti_, under the head of the Greater Bear.
[186] The Crab is, by the ancients and moderns, placed in the zodiac, as here, between the Twins and the Lion; and they are all three northern signs.
[187] The Twins are placed in the zodiac with the side of one to the northern hemisphere, and the side of the other to the southern hemisphere.
