Book, Paragraph
1 I, 3 | is potentially hot, cold, dry, moist, and possessed of 2 I, 3 | contains both vapour and a dry exhalation from the earth. 3 I, 3 | above that, is warm and dry. For vapour is naturally 4 I, 3 | the exhalation warm and dry; and vapour is potentially 5 I, 4 | the earth itself, which is dry, is like smoke. Of these 6 I, 4 | motion comes the warm and dry element, which we call fire, 7 I, 4 | flame is the ebullition of a dry exhalation. So whenever 8 I, 4 | into the sea and on the dry land, both by night and 9 I, 7 | considering. We know that the dry and warm exhalation is the 10 I, 7 | and the years are clearly dry and windy. When they are 11 I, 7 | great comet the winter was dry and north winds prevailed, 12 I, 10| heat is not so great as to dry up the moisture that has 13 I, 14| are not always moist or dry, but they change according 14 I, 14| come into existence and dry up. And so the relation 15 I, 14| time, but where there was dry land there comes to be sea, 16 I, 14| there one day comes to be dry land. But we must suppose 17 I, 14| a certain time, and then dry up and grow old, while other 18 I, 14| and then finally become dry; and when rivers change 19 I, 14| necessarily leaves that place dry when it recedes; again, 20 I, 14| it recedes; again, if the dry land has encroached on the 21 I, 14| watery state and becoming dry. Here, too, the change is 22 I, 14| prosperity. For these places dry up and come to be in good 23 I, 14| some day grow excessively dry and deteriorate. This happened 24 I, 14| Mycenae has become completely dry and barren, while the Argive 25 I, 14| that many places are now dry, that formerly were covered 26 I, 14| clayey, these rivers run dry earlier. We must recognize 27 I, 14| places of the latter type dry up more, while those of 28 I, 14| and rivers, nor for ever dry. And the facts prove this. 29 I, 14| formed and after it lakes and dry land, but in course of time 30 I, 14| end the river itself must dry up.~So it is clear, since 31 I, 14| whence they flow was once dry: for their effect may be 32 II, 1 | moisture. Then the sun began to dry it up, part of it evaporated 33 II, 2 | interchange of moist and dry. It cannot be said to be 34 II, 2 | does not take as long to dry up when it is spread out 35 II, 3 | exist no longer, but will dry up as some people think.~ 36 II, 3 | for the last time she will dry it up entirely. Such a tale 37 II, 3 | beforehand. So the sea will never dry up: for before that can 38 II, 3 | that the earth will grow dry once again. We must recognize 39 II, 3 | the contrary, when it is dry it graws moist, but when 40 II, 3 | moist to sweat as it grew dry? Indeed, the theory that 41 II, 3 | evaporation, one moist, the other dry, it is clear that the latter 42 II, 3 | the earthy stuff in the dry exhalation is of this nature, 43 II, 3 | this nature, and it is the dry exhalation which accounts 44 II, 3 | said, the moist and the dry evaporations are mixed, 45 II, 3 | winds and it blows from dry and hot regions. Hence it 46 II, 3 | itself a great quantity of dry evaporation from the places 47 II, 3 | and therefore cold. It is dry in our part of the world 48 II, 3 | just as the south is a dry wind in Libya. So the south 49 II, 3 | of lye and ashes and the dry and liquid excreta of animals. 50 II, 4 | evaporation, one moist, the other dry. The former is called vapour: 51 II, 4 | cannot exist without the dry nor the dry without the 52 II, 4 | without the dry nor the dry without the moist: whenever 53 II, 4 | explained before, while the dry evaporation is the source 54 II, 4 | smoky evaporation is hot and dry. Hence each contributes 55 II, 4 | the vaporous, now of the dry and smoky exhalation, that 56 II, 4 | and wet, others windy and dry. Sometimes there is much 57 II, 4 | sun, yet on occasion the dry evaporation will prevail 58 II, 4 | district: for instance, the dry evaporation circulates in 59 II, 4 | evaporation remains and the dry moves away. Just as in the 60 II, 4 | body when the stomach is dry the lower belly is often 61 II, 4 | contrary state, and when it is dry the stomach is moist and 62 II, 4 | also forms and cools the dry evaporation when the clouds 63 II, 4 | defined as "a quantity of dry evaporation from the earth 64 II, 5 | is only where something dry contains moisture that it 65 II, 6 | rainy gestes and Eurus are dry: the latter being dry at 66 II, 6 | are dry: the latter being dry at first and rainy afterwards. 67 II, 7 | up when it grows wet or dry, and earthquakes are due 68 II, 7 | explained, the earth grows dry in time of drought and breaks 69 II, 8 | already shown that wet and dry must both give rise to an 70 II, 8 | The earth is essentially dry, but rain fills it with 71 II, 8 | is too cold, summer too dry for winds to form. In time 72 II, 8 | the predominance of the dry over the moist evaporation. 73 II, 9 | of exhalation, moist and dry, and the atmosphere contains 74 II, 9 | region. But if any of the dry exhalation is caught in 75 II, 9 | is the same: namely, the dry exhalation. If it flows 76 III, 1 | are "wind", and wind is a dry and warm evaporation. Now 77 III, 3 | not yet separated from the dry and firelike exhalation: 78 III, 6 | metals. The heat of the dry exhalation is the cause 79 III, 6 | for they still contain the dry exhalation.~This is the 80 IV, 1 | cold, are active; two, the dry and the moist, passive. 81 IV, 1 | and softening them. Things dry and moist, on the other 82 IV, 1 | being active": moist and dry are passive, for it is in 83 IV, 1 | growing old or growing dry. Putrescence is the end 84 IV, 1 | being moist and end by being dry. For the moist and the dry 85 IV, 1 | dry. For the moist and the dry were their matter, and the 86 IV, 1 | active qualities caused the dry to be determined by the 87 IV, 3 | without the admixture of some dry matter: water alone of liquids 88 IV, 3 | Broiling is concoction by dry foreign heat. Hence if a 89 IV, 3 | the end the agent has been dry heat. Hence the outside 90 IV, 3 | fire are the first to get dry and consequently get more 91 IV, 3 | consequently get more intensely dry. In this way the outer pores 92 IV, 4 | qualities the moist and the dry. The elements of bodies, 93 IV, 4 | ones, are the moist and the dry; the bodies themselves are 94 IV, 4 | bodies partake more of the dry, others of the moist. All 95 IV, 4 | easily determined and the dry determined with difficulty, 96 IV, 4 | moist is what makes the dry determinable, and each serves 97 IV, 4 | especially representative of the dry, water of the moist, and 98 IV, 4 | anything made up of the dry and the moist is necessarily 99 IV, 5 | is acted upon is moist or dry or a compound of both. Water 100 IV, 5 | that characterized by the dry, for these among the elements 101 IV, 5 | the qualities moist and dry are passive. Therefore cold, 102 IV, 6 | and the agent is either dry heat or cold. Hence those 103 IV, 6 | moisture goes off and the dry matter comes together, but 104 IV, 6 | moisture goes off in vapour the dry matter thickens and collects. 105 IV, 6 | which are solidified by dry heat some are insoluble, 106 IV, 7 | vapour and so fire does not dry it or boil it off.~Those 107 IV, 7 | This is because it cannot dry; for what remains is water, 108 IV, 7 | causes, the cold and the dry, solution must be due to 109 IV, 7 | only what is solidified by dry heat). But iron is melted 110 IV, 8 | active, and the moist and the dry as passive, and consequently 111 IV, 8 | qualities, like moist and dry, being passive. These are 112 IV, 8 | water, e.g. natron, salt, dry mud. Those bodies that solidified 113 IV, 9 | nor must the relation of dry to moist in them be incongruous ( 114 IV, 9 | as they perish away they dry up or become earth. But 115 IV, 9 | are common secretion of dry and moist together caused 116 IV, 9 | inflammable because they are dry like fire. When this dry 117 IV, 9 | dry like fire. When this dry comes to be hot there is 118 IV, 9 | flame is burning smoke or dry exhalation. The fumes of 119 IV, 9 | there is too little of the dry in them (the dry being the 120 IV, 9 | of the dry in them (the dry being the means by which 121 IV, 9 | conjunction of the oily with the dry.) So those bodies that give 122 IV, 9 | but those that burn to the dry.~ 123 IV, 10| they are composed is the dry and the moist, that is, 124 IV, 11| matter of bodies. For the dry and the moist are matter (
