**What survives.** A short iatromathematical Hermetic treatise listing each of the thirty-six decans of the zodiac with the plant whose virtues correspond to it; a different text from the *Asclepius* dialogue (the Latin Logos Teleios). The text is preserved in fragments inside Byzantine astrological miscellanies, especially the *Catalogus Codicum Astrologorum Graecorum* (CCAG) collections.
