Œuvres Hippolyte de Rome (170-235) The Refutation of All Heresies
Book IV.

Chapter XX.--Type of Those Born Under Virgo.

Those born in Virgo are of the following description: fair appearance, eyes not large, fascinating, dark, compact 1 eyebrows, cheerful, swimmers; they are, however, slight in frame, 2 beautiful in aspect, with hair prettily adjusted, large forehead, prominent nose. The same by nature are docile, moderate, intelligent, sportive, rational, slow to speak, forming many plans; in regard of a favour, importunate; 3 gladly observing everything; and well-disposed pupils, they master whatever they learn; moderate, scorners, victims of unnatural lusts, companionable, of a noble soul, despisers, careless in practical matters, attending to instruction, more honourable in what concerns others than what relates to themselves; as regards friendship, useful.


  1. Or, "straight, compact." ↩

  2. Miller gives an additional sentence: "They are of equal measurement at the (same) age, and possess a body perfect and erect." ↩

  3. Or, "careful observers." ↩
