I finally gave up on trying to convert this file to text and copy-paste it here and have, instead, uploaded it to my website so those of you interested in such things can have a look at it. If you read it with the work of Victor Clube in mind, particularly his examination of the ancient origins of astrology, (included in both "The Cosmic Serpent" and "The Cosmic Winter") a whole lot begins to make sense.
