s thecircle ABCD is to any space less than the circle EFGH. In thesame manner jt may be demonstrated, that neither is the squareof FH to the square of BD, as the circle EFGH is to any spaceless than the circle ABCD. Nor is the square of BD to thesquare of FH, as the circle ABCD is to any space… … But as the space f T is to the circle ABCD, so is the circleEFGH to some space, which must be less «* than the circleABCD, because the space T is greater, by hypothesis, than thecircle EFGH. Therefore, as the square of FH is to the square t tot, as in the foregoing- note, at *, it was explained how…
