Thesis 11>29

Latin

Quod dicitur a Cabalistis, quod linea uiridis gyrat uniuersum, conuenientissime dicitur ad conclusionem quam ultimam diximus ex mente Porphyrii.

English

What the Cabalists say, that a green line circles the universe, fits very aptly with the last conclusion we stated out of Porphyry's thought.

The 'green line' is, per Farmer's note, Binah (intelligence), the third sefirah, here matched to Porphyry's 'intellect'; the conclusion referred to is 22.12 (farmer1998:27045).
