501 13| contrary? I should think this question must prove a puzzler to 502 5 | Wherefore, even yet, such races of men as make no use of 503 15| hot thing has the power of raising a disturbance in the body ( 504 18| formerly was formed in and ran from them daily; and it 505 17| heat, nor experience these rapid alterations of heat and 506 2 | himself. But whoever does not reach the capacity of the illiterate 507 12| since it is capable of reaching to the greatest exactitude 508 1 | they are constituted, the reader or hearer could not find 509 2 | and showing what the art really is. From this it will be 510 14| from those things, when received into the body abundantly, 511 22| the spleen) drinks up and receives a fluid into itself, the 512 17| of heat and cold. And I reckon this very circumstance the 513 16| powers spontaneously, be reckoned a mighty and serious affair? 514 1 | whatever else they choose (thus reducing their subject within a narrow 515 6 | strength of the food in reference to the affection; and to 516 1 | is nothing which can be referred to in order to discover 517 11| consumed, and he wanted refreshment, no new supply was furnished 518 16| heat, and having procured refrigeration for himself in this manner, 519 5 | 5. Let us inquire then regarding what is admitted to be Medicine; 520 14| sorts of powers both as regards quantity and strength. These, 521 22| frequent pains occur in the region of it, along with suppurations 522 5 | recourse to drinks, and so regulated them as to mixture and quantity, 523 12| I say, we ought not to reject the ancient Art, as if it 524 2 | investigations. But whoever, rejecting and despising all these, 525 1 | the more reprehensible as relating to an art which all men 526 20| his duties, what man is in relation to the articles of food 527 11| when in a state of health, remain for two or three days without 528 16| the cold is attempered and rendered more moderate by the hot, 529 20| drunk in large quantity renders a man feeble; and everybody 530 1 | say; and this is the more reprehensible as relating to an art which 531 2 | 2. But all these requisites belong of old to Medicine, 532 22| density and broadness, it resists and does not yield. But 533 20| and they differ in this respect, that what in their body 534 20| cannot know anything certain respecting nature from any other quarter 535 5 | neither abstain from, nor restrict themselves in anything for 536 16| fairly congealed, when he resumes his clothes and comes into 537 13| I wish the discourse to revert to the new method of those 538 10| may be clearly seen upon reverting to the consideration of 539 23| or round; the chest and ribs broad or narrow; and many 540 17| diseases, do not quickly get rid of the heat, nor experience 541 16| in those who experience a rigor that the most acute fever 542 16| the snow, or otherwise in rigorous weather, and contracting 543 3 | to it; they boiled, they roasted, they mixed, they diluted 544 20| incompatible with cheese, is roused and put in commotion by 545 15| whether eaten or drunk, rubbed in externally, and otherwise 546 10| consequence which of these rules they observe, that is to 547 18| is present, but when the running becomes thicker and less 548 19| flow, and even occasion rupture and erosion of the tunic 549 9 | easy matter, for then the safest rule would be to circumscribe 550 3 | for his nourishment and safety, as a substitute for that 551 5 | which was invented for the sake of the sick, which possesses 552 7 | in place of the former savage and brutish mode of living? 553 14| extreme, for these things they saw both existing in man, and 554 20| the first place. But this saying rather appertains to philosophy, 555 2 | and form of inquiry, and says he has discovered anything, 556 14| water, strongly wrought or scarcely at all, baked or raw—and 557 3 | appears to me that they would search out the food befitting their 558 16| gives pain; and at that season when cold is applied it 559 19| or by means of a medicine seasonably administered, the patient 560 18| more mixed with the former secretion, then it is that the heat 561 14| manner as we are by the secretions in the body. But all those 562 5 | practitioners, whether it also seeks to accomplish the same objects, 563 10| supper in addition, they are seized with flatulence, tormina, 564 9 | for perfect accuracy is seldom to be seen, since many physicians 565 24| the better able always to select the best; for that is best 566 9 | determined, unless it be the sensation of the body; wherefore it 567 15| things possessed of far less sensibility than man; for it is not 568 16| and comes into a place of shelter, his body becomes more heated 569 2 | explain, by stating and showing what the art really is. 570 20| I say that this history shows what man is, by what causes 571 5 | diet had suited with men in sickness as in good health. Wherefore, 572 9 | blunders either on the one side or the other, and in fact 573 3 | hull, grinding it all down, sifting, toasting, and baking it, 574 14| but the whole forms one simple and not strong substance.~ 575 22| symptoms also occur in the site of the diaphragm, but much 576 13| to be provided for one so situated? Hot? or cold? or moist? 577 9 | their mistakes and want of skill are made apparent to all. 578 20| to every physician to be skilled in nature, and strive to 579 23| small or large; the neck slender or thick, long or short; 580 11| bellies digest much more slowly, and require more rest and 581 10| weighed down with yawning, slumbering, and thirst; and if they 582 16| persons travelling in the snow, or otherwise in rigorous 583 17| state, neither is it the sole cause of the mischief, but 584 11| accustomed to dinner, since, as soon as the body required food, 585 20| been said or written by sophist or physician concerning 586 20| 20. Certain sophists and physicians say that 587 14| other things having all sorts of powers both as regards 588 1 | WHOEVER having undertaken to speak or write on Medicine, have 589 17| mischief, but that this species of heat is bitter, and that 590 10| from vertigo, lowness of spirit, and inactivity,—such are 591 10| trembling, and want of spirits, the eyes of such a person 592 5 | those of whom I formerly spoke, in the first place, I suppose, 593 24| And, as has been formerly stated, one ought to be acquainted 594 2 | endeavor to explain, by stating and showing what the art 595 22| fill the parts so as to be stationary, but have changes of place 596 1 | have not thought that it stood in need of an empty hypothesis, 597 9 | expose themselves, but when a storm and violent hurricane overtake 598 8 | which are wholesome and strengthening to an ox or a horse, such 599 22| broad and suspended, some stretched, some long, some dense, 600 16| kind. And, to give a more striking example, persons travelling 601 3 | wheat, by macerating it, stripping it of its hull, grinding 602 20| be skilled in nature, and strive to know, if he would wish 603 1 | empty hypothesis, like those subjects which are occult and dubious, 604 13| deranged, and he will not subsist long. What remedy, then, 605 15| some one of the well known substances; and if this hot thing happen 606 3 | nourishment and safety, as a substitute for that kind of diet by 607 24| proper. Thus, if one should succeed in his investigations of 608 22| some dense, some rare and succulent, some spongy and of loose 609 6 | But all the causes of the sufferance refer themselves to this 610 23| much from one another as to sufferings both in health and disease; 611 22| contents: these things it suffers, owing to the nature of 612 5 | and this alone would be sufficient for certain of the sick, 613 16| himself on account of a suffocating heat, and having procured 614 16| cease doing so, the heat and suffocation will be ten times greater 615 5 | is to say, they take what suits their appetite, and neither 616 18| cold, and these quickly supervene, and require no coction. 617 16| longest; and, when sweat supervenes, and the fever passes off, 618 13| eat wheat, such as it is supplied from the thrashing-floor, 619 1 | within a narrow compass, and supposing only one or two original 620 22| region of it, along with suppurations and chronic tumors (phymata). 621 13| by its contrary. But the surest and most obvious remedy 622 19| erosion of the tunic which surrounds the eyeball. But pain, heat, 623 22| nature, and therefore less susceptible of pain; and yet pains and 624 22| and round, some broad and suspended, some stretched, some long, 625 3 | strong and brutish diet, swallowing things which were raw, unmixed, 626 16| lasted longest; and, when sweat supervenes, and the fever 627 18| daily; and it occasions swelling of the nose, and it inflames, 628 9 | punishment is not far off, but is swift in overtaking both the one 629 | taking 630 9 | body; wherefore it is a task to learn this accurately, 631 22| receive or yield to it, but tender, juicy, full of blood, and 632 22| object; but owing to its tenderness, and the quantity of blood 633 22| substance, of a nervous (tendinous?) and strong nature, and 634 22| some spongy and of loose texture. Now, then, which of these 635 | thereby 636 | thereof 637 10| yawning, slumbering, and thirst; and if they take supper 638 16| person wish to be warmed thoroughly either by means of a hot 639 13| it is supplied from the thrashing-floor, raw and unprepared, with 640 11| health, remain for two or three days without food, experience 641 19| And in defluxions upon the throat, from which are formed hoarseness, 642 | through 643 16| suffer from inflammation and tingling when they put on warm clothing 644 3 | grinding it all down, sifting, toasting, and baking it, they formed 645 | together 646 8 | than the sick person who took bread or cake unseasonably. 647 22| soft, in these there occur torpor and obstructions, such as 648 | towards 649 14| properly, and by a suitable train of reasoning, according 650 4 | themselves to gymnastics and training, are always making some 651 15| advance this doctrine, and transfer Art from the cause I have 652 16| striking example, persons travelling in the snow, or otherwise 653 2 | appears to me, that whoever treats of this art should treat 654 10| great loss of strength, trembling, and want of spirits, the 655 10| experiences insomnolency or troubled and disturbed dreams; and 656 1 | in order to discover the truth.~ 657 22| and still more by using a tube, you can readily draw in 658 22| suppurations and chronic tumors (phymata). These symptoms 659 19| rupture and erosion of the tunic which surrounds the eyeball. 660 22| and from broad, gradually turning narrow? I think such as 661 10| when they have merely taken twice in a day the same food which 662 19| strong and varied acrimonies, ulcerate the eyelids, and in some 663 18| remains long, the part becomes ulcerated although destitute of flesh 664 19| things float on the stomach, unconcocted and undigested, no contrivance 665 19| will then cease when they undergo a change from cold to hot, 666 24| admixture, but because it has undergone a mutation within itself; 667 1 | should treat of these and undertake to declare how they are 668 1 | WHOEVER having undertaken to speak or write on Medicine, 669 19| stomach, unconcocted and undigested, no contrivance could make 670 20| my meaning by an example, undiluted wine drunk in large quantity 671 22| contains, it cannot be without uneasiness; and for these reasons the 672 13| thrashing-floor, raw and unprepared, with raw meat, and let 673 1 | would have been equally unskilled and ignorant of it, and 674 14| of food, those which are unsuitable and hurtful to man when 675 8 | are neither serious and unsupportable, nor yet altogether mild, 676 21| used, a walk taken, or any unusual food eaten, all which were 677 24| removed from that which is unwholesome.~ 678 10| become more pallid, his urine thick and hot, his mouth 679 4 | but which all know from usage and necessity. But still 680 5 | small quantities of their usual food, and as such persons 681 22| the bladder, the head, the uterus in woman; these parts clearly 682 7 | latter admits of greater variety, and requires more application, 683 19| take place through many and various forms; therefore the crises 684 10| loose; he will suffer from vertigo, lowness of spirit, and 685 15| but also in a bladder, a vessel of wood, and in many other 686 8 | an ox or a horse, such as vetches, barley, and the like, and 687 9 | themselves, but when a storm and violent hurricane overtake them, 688 11| happened because he did not wait the proper time, until his 689 11| meal was consumed, and he wanted refreshment, no new supply 690 16| tingling when they put on warm clothing and get into a 691 16| if a person wish to be warmed thoroughly either by means 692 11| was furnished to it, he wastes and is consumed from want 693 6 | increase to the disease, but a wasting and weakness to the body. 694 19| these have at first saltish, watery, and acrid discharges, and 695 9 | abstinence may enervate, weaken, and kill. And there are 696 6 | disease, but a wasting and weakness to the body. But whatever 697 16| or otherwise in rigorous weather, and contracting great cold 698 3 | the earth, such as fruits, weeds, and grass; for from such 699 10| in body and mind, and are weighed down with yawning, slumbering, 700 9 | this measure admits neither weight nor calculation of any kind, 701 14| of any such intense and well-marked quality, such as bread, 702 | whence 703 10| arranged it so accordingly; whilst others, for the same reason, 704 8 | of those things which are wholesome and strengthening to an 705 16| cold; but when the one is wholly separate from the other, 706 | Why 707 22| facts: thus, if you gape wide with the mouth you cannot 708 8 | comparison with that of wild beasts and of other animals. 709 7 | digest, because of their wildness and intemperature, and the 710 16| to cool his body during winter, and bathes either in cold 711 16| example, if a person in health wishes to cool his body during 712 22| strong so as to be able to withstand it without suffering injury; 713 22| the head, the uterus in woman; these parts clearly attract, 714 20| on the contrary, it is wonderful what strength it imparts 715 15| in a bladder, a vessel of wood, and in many other things 716 14| discoveries, and thought the Art worthy of being ascribed to a god, 717 1 | having undertaken to speak or write on Medicine, have first 718 20| whatever such has been said or written by sophist or physician 719 10| and are weighed down with yawning, slumbering, and thirst; 720 19| principle, which we call yellow bile, what anxiety, burning 721 | your
