11 2|         accidental wound gastric digestion does not become impaired
12 2|         But if fever occurs, the digestion at once deteriorates, and
13 2|           is of great service in digestion; there is only left, then,

24 3|        Since, then, this is what digestion means and since the nutriment
25 3|      that nutriment does undergo digestion in the stomach. ~ And Asclepiades
