sunt igitur tenues formae rerum similesque effigiae, singillatim quas cernere nemo cum possit, tamen adsiduo crebroque repulsu reiectae reddunt speculorum ex aequore visum, nec ratione alia servari posse videntur, tanto opere ut similes reddantur cuique figurae.
There are therefore thin shapes and like semblances of things, which singly no one can perceive, yet being flung back by incessant and unremitting repulsion give back a vision from the surface of mirrors. Nor does there seem to be any other way in which they could be preserved so that figures so like each thing should be given back.
