According to the 1995 Prometheus Trust edition Book 3 Chapter 1 of this translation contains Chapters 1-4 from the original Greek, Chapter 2 contains the Greek chapters 5-6 and Chapter 3 contains the Greek Chapters 7-8. Thereafter, the translated and Greek chapters match beginning at Chapter 9. A quotation from Proclus is included on the cover of Harmonices Mundi Liber I despite the fact that Johannes Kepler's mother had been recently accused of witchcraft and threatened with torture. - Summary by Geoffrey Edwards
