When four quantities are continuous and proportional, the proportion from the first to the fourth shall be called the proportion from the first to the second tripled.
That is, if it be 1, 3, 9, 27 — one times 3 makes 3, and 3 times 3 makes 9, and 3 times 9 makes 27; so that you see, the proportion from the first to the second being triple, it has been named three times, that is, 27 is composed of three triples, that is, composed of three such proportions.
On the proportion which lies between the extreme terms of the continuous quantity.
On the proportion which lies between the extreme terms of a continued proportionality established among four terms.
Such proportion from the first to the fourth shall be like that from the first to the second tripled, that is, composed of three such proportions, because such are found in it; or the proportion from the first to the second tripled in itself, which comes to the same, for if such numbers are 1, 3, 9, 27, it is as much as to say that a triple times a triple makes a ninefold, and a triple times a ninefold makes a twenty-sevenfold. And it is as much as to say: composed of three proportions like that formed of the first term with the second.
When four quantities are continuous and proportional, the proportion from the first to the fourth shall be the same as that from the first to the second tripled, or multiplied three times in itself. Here is the example in numbers: 1, 3, 9, 27.
I say that such proportion is between 1 and 27, the extremes of the said proportionality, like the proportion between 1 and 3 tripled — that is, that the triple born between 3 compared to 1 shall itself be tripled, that is, taken three times. As to say: from 1 to 3 is a triple, and from 3 to 9 that triple enters three times, which makes a second triplication; and then the third triple arises in the triplication of the 9, which comes to make 27, so that 27 is composed of three triples, because such are found in it. One may also say that such proportion is generated from the proportion from the first number to the second multiplied in itself. As to say: one times 3 makes 3, and 3 times 3 makes another triple born of itself, which is in the 9, and 3 times 9 then makes a triple of a triple of a triple; it is multiplied cubically. Therefore the proportion from 1 to 27 is composed of the proportion from 1 to 3, three times tripled.
