Ad virginem et leonem et cancrum anguis porrigens agmen stellarum intortus succingit, regione cancri erigens rostrum, ad leonem medioque corpore sustinens craterem ad manumque virginis caudam subiciens in qua inest corvos; quae sunt autem supra scapulas, peraeque sunt lucentia.
The Virgin, the Lion and the Crab are girt about with the Serpent, which in its twistings stretches through a procession of stars. It raises its snout to the Crab; against the Lion it supports the Cup with its middle; to the hand of the Virgin it raises its tail, on which rests the Crow. The stars above its shoulders are equally luminous.
