ἤτοι γὰρ αὑτῷ προστέθειται ὁ παλαιστὴς ἢ τῷ προϋποκειμένῳ πήχει ἢ τῷ ἐξ ἀμφοτέρων ἀποτελεσθέντι ἑπταπαλαίστῳ μεγέθει· οὔτε δὲ αὐτῷ προστίθεται ὁ παλαιστὴς οὔτε τῷ προϋποκειμένῳ πήχει οὔτε τῷ ἐξ ἀμφοτέρων ἀποτελεσθέντι μεγέθει, φημὶ δὲ ἔκ τε τοῦ προϋποκειμένου πήχεως καὶ τῆς προσθέσεως· οὐκ ἄρα προστίθεταί τι τινί.

For the palm has been added either to itself, to the previously subsisting cubit, or to the magnitude of seven palms produced from both. But the palm is added neither to itself, nor to the previously subsisting cubit, nor to the magnitude produced from both, by which I mean from the previously subsisting cubit and the addition. Therefore nothing is added to anything.

Car le palme a été ajouté soit à lui-même, soit à la coudée préexistante, soit à la grandeur de sept palmes composée des deux. Mais le palme n’est ajouté ni à lui-même, ni à la coudée préexistante, ni à la grandeur composée des deux, j’entends de la coudée préexistante et de l’addition. Rien n’est donc ajouté à rien.
