Evrenin Birliği ve Sonsuzluğu Üzerine

Whether this universe is one or many: And if one, whether it is finite or infinite: and if finite, whether it has anything outside itself, or nothing: and if it has something outside itself, whether it is mobile or immobile: and whether it is created or uncreated. Therefore, to take the beginning from the most manifest things, touching only upon that which is most well known and conspicuous, the world consists of only eleven bodies. These bodies are, first indeed the earth, and with it, rather than around it, the water: then around both of these up to the heaven, the air. This the Moon encompasses as a heaven, orb, or sphere, after that Mercury, then Venus, the Sun, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, and the highest heaven of the stars. But whether the Sun itself stands in the middle of the world and the earth is turned around? Whether any other way is better than all these? I refrain from saying: since some of these belong to the books On the Secrets of Eternity.
