 1   I, 5|           that of flesh as if, e.g. "moist" were to accede to "dry"
 2  II, 2|            hot and cold, and dry and moist, are terms, of which the
 3  II, 2|             adaptable in shape.~From moist and dry are derived (iii)
 4  II, 2|       differences. For (a) since the moist has no determinate shape,
 5  II, 2|            the fine derives from the moist, while the coarse derives
 6  II, 2|            viscous" derives from the moist: for "the viscous" (e.g.
 7  II, 2|            viscous" (e.g. oil) is a "moist" modified in a certain way. "
 8  II, 2|           the soft" derives from the moist. For "soft" is that which
 9  II, 2|            total displacement as the moist does-which explains why
10  II, 2|          does-which explains why the moist is not "soft", although "
11  II, 2|           the soft" derives from the moist. "The hard", on the other
12  II, 2|            dry.~The terms "dry" and "moist" have more senses than one.
13  II, 2|            the damp", as well as the moist, is opposed to the dry:
14  II, 2|           the dry, is opposed to the moist. But all these qualities
15  II, 2|              derive from the dry and moist we mentioned first." For (
16  II, 2|            damp will derive from the moist, and "the dry" which is
17  II, 2|         primary dry. Again (ii) the "moist" and the solidified derive
18  II, 2|          from the primary pair. For "moist" is that which contains
19  II, 2|           the "liquefiable" from the moist.~It is clear, then, that
20  II, 2|           the hot is not essentially moist or dry, nor the moist essentially
21  II, 2|    essentially moist or dry, nor the moist essentially hot or cold:
22  II, 2|        another or of the hot and the moist. Hence these must be four.~
23  II, 3|         thing to be hot and cold, or moist and dry. Hence it is evident
24  II, 3|            be four: hot with dry and moist with hot, and again cold
25  II, 3|          cold with dry and cold with moist. And these four couples
26  II, 3|               whereas Air is hot and moist (Air being a sort of aqueous
27  II, 3|                and Water is cold and moist, while Earth is cold and
28  II, 3|            that ice is a freezing of moist and cold, fire analogously
29  II, 3|         Water by cold rather than by moist, Air by moist rather than
30  II, 3|         rather than by moist, Air by moist rather than by hot, and
31  II, 4|              and hot, and the second moist and cold: while in others
32  II, 4|           and Water, the first being moist and hot, and the second
33  II, 4|              and hot, and the second moist and cold. It is evident,
34  II, 4|             dry while Air is hot and moist, so that there will be Air
35  II, 4|           the dry be overcome by the moist. Again, Water will result
36  II, 4|           Air, as we saw, is hot and moist while Water is cold and
37  II, 4|              while Water is cold and moist, so that, if the hot changes,
38  II, 4| complementary factors". For Water is moist and cold while Earth is
39  II, 4|              and dry-so that, if the moist be overcome, there will
40  II, 4|         Water, both the cold and the moist must pass-away: and again,
41  II, 4|            hot of the latter and the moist of the former are left):
42  II, 4|              hot of the Fire and the moist of the Water have passed-away,
43  II, 4|          have passed-away (since the moist of the former and the cold
44  II, 4|             left): whereas, when the moist of the Air and the cold
45  II, 4|              the dry of Fire and the moist of Air were to pass-away:
46  II, 5|              persists, Water will be moist and white: but if it does
47  II, 5|              be dry, while Water was moist and then showed itself white.
48  II, 5|               viz. the black and the moist (for these have not yet
