1 10| 10. And that no less mischief 2 11| 11. But let us inquire what 3 12| 12. Wherefore, I say, that 4 13| 13. But I wish the discourse 5 14| 14. And this I know, moreover, 6 15| 15. I cannot think in what 7 16| 16. But I think that of all 8 17| 17. One might here say—but 9 18| 18. With regard to these symptoms, 10 19| 19. But such defluxions as 11 2 | 2. But all these requisites 12 20| 20. Certain sophists and physicians 13 21| 21. During convalescence from 14 22| 22. And it appears to me that 15 23| 23. There are both within and 16 24| 24. And, as has been formerly 17 3 | 3. For the art of Medicine 18 4 | 4. And if this is not held 19 5 | 5. Let us inquire then regarding 20 6 | 6. But this ought to be well 21 7 | 7. What other object, then, 22 8 | 8. And if one would compare 23 9 | 9. And if it were simply, 24 2 | possessed of the proper ability, and knowing those discoveries 25 16| clothing on, takes up his abode again in the place he was 26 | above 27 22| and yet pains and chronic abscesses do occur about it.~ 28 5 | their appetite, and neither abstain from, nor restrict themselves 29 9 | the constitution of man, abstinence may enervate, weaken, and 30 7 | nature. The one sought to abstract those things which the constitution 31 5 | with much water, and thus abstracting that which was strong in 32 15| moist. Since it would be absurd to advise the patient to 33 14| when received into the body abundantly, there is no disorder nor 34 22| hardened and enlarged by the accession of juices. Such things happen 35 21| some from certain things accidentally administered.

What 56 10| impunity; and if they make any alteration in it for one day, or even 57 17| nor experience these rapid alterations of heat and cold. And I 58 8 | and unsupportable, nor yet altogether mild, but such as that, 59 | am 60 | among 61 12| ought not to reject the ancient Art, as if it were not, 62 19| the other symptoms which annoyed the patient; for we must 63 19| we call yellow bile, what anxiety, burning heat, and loss 64 22| obstructions, such as happen in apoplexy. But when it (the flatus?) 65 20| But this saying rather appertains to philosophy, as Empedocles 66 5 | they take what suits their appetite, and neither abstain from, 67 7 | variety, and requires more application, whereas the former was 68 12| is in a state very nearly approaching to one in disease; but a 69 16| the most acute fever is apt to break out? And yet not 70 1 | some hypothesis to their argument, such as hot, or cold, or 71 16| reason, heat spontaneously arises in him without requiring 72 9 | repletion, but no less dreadful, arising from deficiency of food; 73 | around 74 10| in the day, and they have arranged it so accordingly; whilst 75 4 | suitable to call any one an artist of that which no one is 76 1 | for, as in all the other arts, those who practise them 77 22| into narrow: this may be ascertained otherwise from obvious facts: 78 14| the Art worthy of being ascribed to a god, as is the established 79 5 | manage even soups, laid them aside, and had recourse to drinks, 80 15| for he would straightway ask what it is? so that he must 81 12| founded, because it did not attain accuracy in all things, 82 20| this knowledge is to be attained when one comprehends the 83 9 | accuracy. For one must aim at attaining a certain measure, and yet 84 16| trouble, for the cold is attempered and rendered more moderate 85 10| effects; and if he should attempt to take at supper the same 86 1 | are occult and dubious, in attempting to handle which it is necessary 87 2 | and despising all these, attempts to pursue another course 88 19| fluids. The coction, change, attenuation, and thickening into the 89 24| first become?—bitter? salt? austere? or acid? I think acid. 90 1 | to an art which all men avail themselves of on the most 91 3 | But to go still further back, I hold that the diet and 92 14| wrought or scarcely at all, baked or raw—and a multitude of 93 3 | sifting, toasting, and baking it, they formed bread; and 94 5 | use of medicine, namely, barbarians, and even certain of the 95 16| body during winter, and bathes either in cold water or 96 20| there are some who do not bear it well, their constitutions 97 8 | comparison with that of wild beasts and of other animals. For, 98 14| understand the diseases which befall a man? For, by every one 99 11| symptoms which I describe as befalling to this man I refer to want 100 14| god, as is the established belief. For they did not suppose 101 11| and fermentation, for such bellies digest much more slowly, 102 2 | But all these requisites belong of old to Medicine, and 103 14| dissolution of the powers belonging to the body; but strength, 104 11| bowels had completely derived benefit from and had digested the 105 | beyond 106 19| principle, which we call yellow bile, what anxiety, burning heat, 107 16| place? In some instances, blisters arise as if from burning 108 9 | so as not to commit small blunders either on the one side or 109 20| thing; and those in whose bodies such a humor happens to 110 5 | in them by dilution and boiling. But such as could not manage 111 16| most acute fever is apt to break out? And yet not so strongly 112 22| spleen, the lungs, and the breasts, drink up especially the 113 22| owing to its density and broadness, it resists and does not 114 10| other custom and to the bulk of mankind it is of little 115 10| with tormina and rumbling, burn up his bowels; he experiences 116 22| these figures is the best calculated to suck to itself and attract 117 9 | admits neither weight nor calculation of any kind, by which it 118 19| therefore the crises and calculations of time are of great importance 119 7 | then, had he in view who is called a physician, and is admitted 120 9 | conducting the ship in a calm do not expose themselves, 121 19| acidities be purged away, or are calmed down and mixed with other 122 12| but rather, since it is capable of reaching to the greatest 123 2 | whoever does not reach the capacity of the illiterate vulgar 124 10| for pleasure or from any casual circumstance, adopt the 125 20| action; and I wish the same certainty to appear in other cases. 126 14| things, a man is affected and changed this way or that, and the 127 1 | dry, or whatever else they choose (thus reducing their subject 128 9 | safest rule would be to circumscribe the diet to the lowest point. 129 9 | dangerous ones): under these circumstances, when they commit mistakes, 130 13| moist? or dry? For it is clear that it must be one or other 131 16| congealed, when he resumes his clothes and comes into a place of 132 14| whether the bread be fine or coarse; of wheat with or without 133 17| and again there is cold combined with other qualities. These 134 16| resumes his clothes and comes into a place of shelter, 135 9 | their ship. And thus bad and commonplace physicians, when they treat 136 20| cheese, is roused and put in commotion by such a thing; and those 137 8 | 8. And if one would compare the diet of sick persons 138 8 | that of healthy persons in comparison with that of wild beasts 139 1 | subject within a narrow compass, and supposing only one 140 14| paying attention, does not comprehend them, how can he understand 141 20| to be attained when one comprehends the whole subject of medicine 142 22| protruding, contracting, and compressing the lips, and still more 143 18| cold alone, without the concourse of any other quality, there 144 19| and become thicker, and concretions form about the eyes, and 145 14| food, with the exception of condiments and confectioneries, which 146 9 | they commit mistakes while conducting the ship in a calm do not 147 17| strength as being that which conducts, is exacerbated and increased 148 14| exception of condiments and confectioneries, which are made to gratify 149 22| by structures, whatever conformations there are in man. For some 150 20| concerning nature has less connection with the art of medicine 151 21| upon a man, cannot know the consequences which result from them, 152 10| seen upon reverting to the consideration of persons in health. For, 153 3 | nature and powers of man, and considering that the stronger things 154 13| in it?—for the bread is consigned both to fire and to water, 155 9 | a deficient diet, or one consisting of weaker things than what 156 1 | to declare how they are constituted, the reader or hearer could 157 22| fleshy parts. The nature and construction of the parts within a man 158 22| digest nor discharge its contents: these things it suffers, 159 19| unconcocted and undigested, no contrivance could make the pains and 160 16| person in health wishes to cool his body during winter, 161 19| eyelids, and in some cases corrode the and parts below the 162 18| in such of us as have a coryza and defluxion from the nostrils, 163 2 | attempts to pursue another course and form of inquiry, and 164 19| that it is a combination (crasis) of these humors having 165 19| various forms; therefore the crises and calculations of time 166 19| formed hoarseness, cynanche, crysipelas, and pneumonia, all these 167 5 | desire. But those who have cultivated and invented medicine, having 168 22| instruments which are used for cupping are broad below and gradually 169 19| which are formed hoarseness, cynanche, crysipelas, and pneumonia, 170 18| formed in and ran from them daily; and it occasions swelling 171 8 | no less disturbance and danger than the sick person who 172 11| remain for two or three days without food, experience 173 2 | discovered anything, is deceived himself and deceives others, 174 2 | is deceived himself and deceives others, for the thing is 175 1 | of these and undertake to declare how they are constituted, 176 2 | departure, their increase and decline, illiterate persons cannot 177 9 | less dreadful, arising from deficiency of food; wherefore the practice 178 9 | injuries a man less, provided a deficient diet, or one consisting 179 1 | find out, whether what is delivered be true or false; for there 180 22| the liver, owing to its density and broadness, it resists 181 2 | causes of their origin and departure, their increase and decline, 182 10| a man from unseasonable depletion than from repletion, may 183 13| become weak, and his bowels deranged, and he will not subsist 184 11| all the symptoms which I describe as befalling to this man 185 5 | anything for which they have a desire. But those who have cultivated 186 2 | But whoever, rejecting and despising all these, attempts to pursue 187 18| becomes ulcerated although destitute of flesh and hard; and the 188 14| man eats and drinks are devoid of any such intense and 189 4 | investigation. Wherefore those who devote themselves to gymnastics 190 1 | much from one another in dexterity and knowledge, so is it 191 10| flatulence, tormina, and diarrhea, and to many this has been 192 14| human body it makes a great difference whether the bread be fine 193 12| that is unseasonable. It is difficult, seeing that there is no 194 5 | which was strong in them by dilution and boiling. But such as 195 5 | first place, I suppose, diminished the quantity of the articles 196 1 | the sick would have been directed by chance. But now it is 197 20| bad article of food, as disagreeing with whoever eats of it 198 20| what principle in man it disagrees; for there are many other 199 13| 13. But I wish the discourse to revert to the new method 200 14| abundantly, there is no disorder nor dissolution of the powers 201 14| strong, and therefore we are disordered by them in like manner as 202 13| better, unless completely disorganized by time and diet. What, 203 16| appear much colder, and more disposed to chills than before. And 204 14| there is no disorder nor dissolution of the powers belonging 205 10| insomnolency or troubled and disturbed dreams; and to many of them 206 15| manner they who advance this doctrine, and transfer Art from the 207 16| himself in this manner, cease doing so, the heat and suffocation 208 | done 209 10| and these things, passing downwards with tormina and rumbling, 210 9 | of repletion, but no less dreadful, arising from deficiency 211 10| or troubled and disturbed dreams; and to many of them these 212 4 | inquiry, where, by eating and drinking certain things, they are 213 1 | subjects which are occult and dubious, in attempting to handle 214 20| would wish to perform his duties, what man is in relation 215 3 | pains and diseases, and to early deaths. It is likely, indeed, 216 11| and require more rest and ease. And as to him who had been 217 2 | illiterate persons cannot easily find out themselves, but 218 4 | line of inquiry, where, by eating and drinking certain things, 219 21| Whoever does not know what effect these things produce upon 220 15| which is possessed of great efficacy, but the sour and the insipid, 221 2 | found out, by which many and elegant discoveries have been made, 222 20| appertains to philosophy, as Empedocles and certain others have 223 1 | that it stood in need of an empty hypothesis, like those subjects 224 2 | is impossible, I will now endeavor to explain, by stating and 225 16| passing over the whole body, ends for the most part in the 226 9 | constitution of man, abstinence may enervate, weaken, and kill. And there 227 22| structure. Those things which engender flatulence or tormina in 228 22| and become hardened and enlarged by the accession of juices. 229 19| even occasion rupture and erosion of the tunic which surrounds 230 12| quickly and strongly from errors in diet, are weaker than 231 1 | practitioners in which they hold in especial honor. For there are practitioners, 232 14| ascribed to a god, as is the established belief. For they did not 233 22| liquid, which it contains and evacuates every day; but when it ( 234 | ever 235 20| renders a man feeble; and everybody seeing this knows that such 236 | everything 237 12| reaching to the greatest exactitude by reasoning, to receive 238 16| could mention many other examples. And with regard to the 239 14| to use for food, with the exception of condiments and confectioneries, 240 16| qualities heat and cold exercise the least operation in the 241 20| man’s body it principally exerts its action; and I wish the 242 19| are concocted and at rest, exhibiting no one peculiar quality; 243 14| these things they saw both existing in man, and proving injurious 244 19| certain fashion, the complaint exists, but it ceases when they 245 12| always upon what is most expedient, and yet many cases occur 246 10| burn up his bowels; he experiences insomnolency or troubled 247 19| think I have said enough in explanation of them.~ 248 2 | things when discovered and expounded by others. For it is nothing 249 24| in his investigations of external things, he would be the 250 15| eaten or drunk, rubbed in externally, and otherwise applied.~ 251 18| inflames, being of a hot and extremely ardent nature, as you may 252 19| tunic which surrounds the eyeball. But pain, heat, and extreme 253 19| acrimonies, ulcerate the eyelids, and in some cases corrode 254 9 | side or the other, and in fact I would give great praise 255 22| ascertained otherwise from obvious facts: thus, if you gape wide 256 2 | the illiterate vulgar and fails to make them listen to him, 257 16| this, unless his body be fairly congealed, when he resumes 258 9 | ordinary men; but when they fall in with a great, a strong, 259 1 | is delivered be true or false; for there is nothing which 260 2 | treat of things which are familiar to the common people. For 261 16| before. And if a person fan himself on account of a 262 24| for that is best which is farthest removed from that which 263 19| being present in a certain fashion, the complaint exists, but 264 3 | qualities with weaker things, fashioning them to the nature and powers 265 17| simply that men get into the febrile state, neither is it the 266 10| hour, he will straightway feel great loss of strength, 267 11| while in a state of heat and fermentation, for such bellies digest 268 | few 269 22| Now, then, which of these figures is the best calculated to 270 22| noises; for when they do not fill the parts so as to be stationary, 271 14| difference whether the bread be fine or coarse; of wheat with 272 19| but while these things float on the stomach, unconcocted 273 19| the eyes upon which they flow, and even occasion rupture 274 22| to receive any humidity flowing into them, but cannot attract 275 22| nor receive it when it flows to them, for it would glide 276 22| drinks up and receives a fluid into itself, the hollow 277 15| he must either play the fool, or have recourse to some 278 22| filled with a juice which is foreign to them. Those parts which 279 12| and had not been properly founded, because it did not attain 280 3 | these animals grow, live free of disease, and require 281 19| more concocted, and are freed from all acrimony, then, 282 19| character, what varieties of frenzy, gnawing pains in the bowels 283 22| reasons the most acute and frequent pains occur in the region 284 3 | productions of the earth, such as fruits, weeds, and grass; for from 285 22| to it, but tender, juicy, full of blood, and dense, like 286 11| refreshment, no new supply was furnished to it, he wastes and is 287 | further 288 19| with these the diseases gain strength. But when the discharges 289 22| obvious facts: thus, if you gape wide with the mouth you 290 11| a state of rest, but he gave it a new supply while in 291 6 | becomes obvious that what was given has proved food and increase 292 16| from the other, then it gives pain; and at that season 293 22| flows to them, for it would glide past, and find no place 294 19| what varieties of frenzy, gnawing pains in the bowels and 295 3 | agree with them. But to go still further back, I hold 296 14| worthy of being ascribed to a god, as is the established belief. 297 11| belly had become soft, and got into a state of rest, but 298 3 | such as fruits, weeds, and grass; for from such things these 299 14| confectioneries, which are made to gratify the palate and for luxury. 300 12| capable of reaching to the greatest exactitude by reasoning, 301 10| for a part of a day, are greatly injured thereby. Such persons, 302 5 | and even certain of the Greeks, live in the same way when 303 3 | stripping it of its hull, grinding it all down, sifting, toasting, 304 4 | who devote themselves to gymnastics and training, are always 305 3 | likely, indeed, that from habit they would suffer less from 306 18| know, if you apply your hand to the place; and, if the 307 1 | dubious, in attempting to handle which it is necessary to 308 16| cold in their feet, their hands, or their head, what do 309 10| will seem, as it were, to hang loose; he will suffer from 310 22| around them, and become hardened and enlarged by the accession 311 1 | constituted, the reader or hearer could not find out, whether 312 10| wont, immediately become heavy and inactive, both in body 313 | hence 314 21| I know that the common herd of physicians, like the 315 | here 316 20| then; and I say that this history shows what man is, by what 317 12| accuracy in the Art, to hit always upon what is most 318 19| throat, from which are formed hoarseness, cynanche, crysipelas, and 319 1 | which they hold in especial honor. For there are practitioners, 320 10| not dine at the accustomed hour, he will straightway feel 321 14| know, moreover, that to the human body it makes a great difference 322 20| those in whose bodies such a humor happens to prevail in greater 323 9 | when a storm and violent hurricane overtake them, they then, 324 14| becomes perceptible, and hurts a man. And thus, of articles 325 9 | men who have no serious illness, in which case one may commit 326 9 | And there are many other ills, different from those of 327 20| different manner. Thus, to illustrate my meaning by an example, 328 10| when it is not their wont, immediately become heavy and inactive, 329 14| have nothing in them of an immoderate character, nor anything 330 20| wonderful what strength it imparts to those it agrees with; 331 19| calculations of time are of great importance in such matters; but to 332 24| an acid juice is the most improper of all things that can be 333 4 | certain things, they are improved and grow stronger than they 334 10| readily change their diet with impunity; and if they make any alteration 335 10| immediately become heavy and inactive, both in body and mind, 336 10| lowness of spirit, and inactivity,—such are the effects; and 337 20| that what in their body is incompatible with cheese, is roused and 338 17| conducts, is exacerbated and increased along with the other, but 339 22| when it obtains admission, increases and becomes stronger, and 340 3 | of it), if when men are indisposed, the same food and other 341 18| swelling of the nose, and it inflames, being of a hot and extremely 342 9 | less mistake, nor one that injuries a man less, provided a deficient 343 13| it is one of the which is injuring the patient, it is to be 344 22| withstand it without suffering injury; nor soft and rare, so as 345 21| happen to have been any innovation made about that day, such 346 19| the bowels and chest, and inquietude, prevail! and these do not 347 13| those who prosecute their inquiries in the Art by hypothesis. 348 10| his bowels; he experiences insomnolency or troubled and disturbed 349 16| into a hot place? In some instances, blisters arise as if from 350 22| wish. And thus, too, the instruments which are used for cupping 351 18| said, with acrimony and intemperance of humors, pass off in this 352 7 | because of their wildness and intemperature, and the other those things 353 20| in greater quantity and intensity, are likely to suffer the 354 22| are filled, even the small interstices; and, instead of being rare 355 14| things. So that the first inventors, pursuing their investigations 356 1 | and if nothing had been investigated or found out in it, would 357 22| yield to it, but tender, juicy, full of blood, and dense, 358 9 | may enervate, weaken, and kill. And there are many other 359 2 | which the common people have labored, which diseases and the 360 8 | animals. For, suppose a man laboring under one of those diseases 361 3 | invented only after a long lapse of time, for when they suffered 362 16| cold were most intense and lasted longest; and, when sweat 363 | latter 364 22| into itself, the hollow and lax parts of it are filled, 365 2 | have been made, during a length of time, and others will 366 19| exposed, for these are neither liable to putrefaction nor thickening. 367 14| that, and the whole of his life is subjected to them, whether 368 4 | discovery, by pursuing the same line of inquiry, where, by eating 369 22| contracting, and compressing the lips, and still more by using 370 2 | vulgar and fails to make them listen to him, misses his mark. 371 7 | savage and brutish mode of living? To me it appears that the 372 3 | stronger would hold out for a longer time, as even nowadays some, 373 16| most intense and lasted longest; and, when sweat supervenes, 374 9 | by all men, namely, in losing their ship. And thus bad 375 9 | circumscribe the diet to the lowest point. But then it is no 376 10| will suffer from vertigo, lowness of spirit, and inactivity,— 377 22| such as the spleen, the lungs, and the breasts, drink 378 14| gratify the palate and for luxury. And from those things, 379 3 | and that from wheat, by macerating it, stripping it of its 380 | makes 381 2 | is. From this it will be manifest that discoveries cannot 382 5 | certain of the sick, and be manifestly beneficial to them, although 383 9 | weaker things than what mare proper, be administered. 384 2 | listen to him, misses his mark. Wherefore, then, there 385 14| strong, and more than a match for a man’s constitution, 386 9 | persons, it were an easy matter, for then the safest rule 387 19| great importance in such matters; but to all such changes 388 10| practice to take one or two meals. But there are certain persons 389 20| Thus, to illustrate my meaning by an example, undiluted 390 16| into the other; and I could mention many other examples. And 391 10| disease, when they have merely taken twice in a day the 392 | might 393 16| spontaneously, be reckoned a mighty and serious affair?
