1 I, 3 | potentially hot, cold, dry, moist, and possessed of whatever 2 I, 3 | surrounding the earth is moist and warm, because it contains 3 I, 3 | For vapour is naturally moist and cold, but the exhalation 4 I, 7 | necessarily drier and the moist evaporation is so dissolved 5 I, 12| whereas in spring it is still moist, and in autumn it is beginning 6 I, 12| it is beginning to grow moist. It is for the same reason 7 I, 14| the earth are not always moist or dry, but they change 8 I, 14| that some parts remain moist for a certain time, and 9 I, 14| while those of the former, moist type, do so less: until 10 I, 14| places are not for ever moist through the presence of 11 I, 14| the earth were not always moist, the sea must needs change 12 II, 2 | constant interchange of moist and dry. It cannot be said 13 II, 2 | first the earth itself was moist and the world round the 14 II, 3 | when it is dry it graws moist, but when it is moist it 15 II, 3 | graws moist, but when it is moist it does not secrete anything 16 II, 3 | the beginning when it was moist to sweat as it grew dry? 17 II, 3 | earth to sweat when it is moist is impossible.~Since all 18 II, 3 | kinds of evaporation, one moist, the other dry, it is clear 19 II, 3 | since, as we have said, the moist and the dry evaporations 20 II, 3 | Hence it carries little moist vapour and that is why it 21 II, 3 | other hand, comb ing from moist regions, is full of vapour 22 II, 4 | kinds of evaporation, one moist, the other dry. The former 23 II, 4 | to one of its forms. The moist cannot exist without the 24 II, 4 | nor the dry without the moist: whenever we speak of either 25 II, 4 | draws up by its heat the moist evaporation: when it recedes 26 II, 4 | constituents. Vapour is moist and cold (for its fluidity 27 II, 4 | contributes a part, and air is moist and hot. It is absurd that 28 II, 4 | prevail in one part and the moist in another, or conversely. 29 II, 4 | its own place while the moist migrates to the next district 30 II, 4 | distant place: or else the moist evaporation remains and 31 II, 4 | it is dry the stomach is moist and cold, so it often happens 32 II, 4 | approaches it provokes the moist evaporation, and when it 33 II, 8 | predominance of the dry over the moist evaporation. Again, excessive 34 II, 9 | two kinds of exhalation, moist and dry, and the atmosphere 35 III, 3 | water, this shows that the moist vapour has not yet separated 36 III, 4 | Persons whose eyes are moist see it most clearly because 37 IV, 1 | active; two, the dry and the moist, passive. We can satisfy 38 IV, 1 | softening them. Things dry and moist, on the other hand, both 39 IV, 1 | species of "being active": moist and dry are passive, for 40 IV, 1 | that putrefy begin by being moist and end by being dry. For 41 IV, 1 | end by being dry. For the moist and the dry were their matter, 42 IV, 1 | to be determined by the moist.~Destruction supervenes 43 IV, 1 | and natural heat in any moist subject by external heat, 44 IV, 3 | process of ripening. (Nothing moist ripens without the admixture 45 IV, 3 | general, a concoction by moist heat of the indeterminate 46 IV, 3 | takes place in a hot and moist medium and the agent is 47 IV, 4 | the passive qualities the moist and the dry. The elements 48 IV, 4 | the passive ones, are the moist and the dry; the bodies 49 IV, 4 | of the dry, others of the moist. All the forms to be described 50 IV, 4 | being melted.~Since the moist is easily determined and 51 IV, 4 | and its condiments. The moist is what makes the dry determinable, 52 IV, 4 | of the dry, water of the moist, and therefore all determinate 53 IV, 4 | made up of the dry and the moist is necessarily either hard 54 IV, 5 | that which is acted upon is moist or dry or a compound of 55 IV, 5 | element characterized by the moist, earth that characterized 56 IV, 5 | that admit the qualities moist and dry are passive. Therefore 57 IV, 6 | often begin by becoming moist: thus potter’s clay at first 58 IV, 7 | be due to the hot and the moist, that is, to fire and to 59 IV, 8 | present as active, and the moist and the dry as passive, 60 IV, 8 | all these qualities, like moist and dry, being passive. 61 IV, 9 | must the relation of dry to moist in them be incongruous ( 62 IV, 9 | thing is viscous when, being moist or soft, it is tractile. 63 IV, 9 | to fire. For vapour is a moist secretion tending to the 64 IV, 9 | others in that it is not moist nor does it become wind ( 65 IV, 9 | common secretion of dry and moist together caused by the agency 66 IV, 9 | pitch, belong rather to the moist, but those that burn to 67 IV, 10| composed is the dry and the moist, that is, water and earth ( 68 IV, 11| bodies. For the dry and the moist are matter (being passive)
