Chapter XVIII.—Type of Those Born Under Cancer. Those born in Cancer are of the following description: size not large, hair like a dog, of a reddish colour, small mouth, round head, pointed forehead, grey eyes, sufficiently beautiful, limbs somewhat varying. The same by nature are wicked, crafty, proficients in plans, insatiable, stingy, ungracious, illiberal, useless, forgetful; they neither restore what is another’s, nor do they ask back what is their own; 219 as regards friendship, useful. 219     Manilius maintains that persons born under Cancer are of an avaricious and usurious disposition. (See Astronom ., iv. 5.)
