 1   I, 5|         moist" were to accede to "dry" and, having acceded, were
 2   I, 5|        transformed and to become "dry". For in one sense "Like
 3  II, 2|       hand (ii) hot and cold, and dry and moist, are terms, of
 4  II, 2|          limit of its own: while "dry" is that which is readily
 5  II, 2|          in shape.~From moist and dry are derived (iii) the fine
 6  II, 2|           coarse derives from the dry. Again (b) the viscous"
 7  II, 2|      other hand, derives from the dry: for "brittle" is that which
 8  II, 2|      other hand, derives from the dry: for "hard" is that which
 9  II, 2| solidified, and the solidified is dry.~The terms "dry" and "moist"
10  II, 2|     solidified is dry.~The terms "dry" and "moist" have more senses
11  II, 2|          moist, is opposed to the dry: and again "the solidified",
12  II, 2|       solidified", as well as the dry, is opposed to the moist.
13  II, 2|         qualities derive from the dry and moist we mentioned first."
14  II, 2|     mentioned first." For (i) the dry is opposed to the damp:
15  II, 2|   penetrated to its core), while "dry" is that which has lost
16  II, 2|          from the moist, and "the dry" which is opposed to it
17  II, 2|           derive from the primary dry. Again (ii) the "moist"
18  II, 2|         the "solidified" from the dry and the "solidified" from
19  II, 2|         the "solidified" from the dry the "liquefiable" from the
20  II, 2|          not essentially moist or dry, nor the moist essentially
21  II, 2|          nor are the cold and the dry derivative forms, either
22  II, 3|        hot and cold, or moist and dry. Hence it is evident that
23  II, 3|  qualities will be four: hot with dry and moist with hot, and
24  II, 3|          hot, and again cold with dry and cold with moist. And
25  II, 3|       theory. For Fire is hot and dry, whereas Air is hot and
26  II, 3|           while Earth is cold and dry. Thus the differences are
27  II, 3|  analogously will be a boiling of dry and hot: a fact, by the
28  II, 3|          single quality: Earth by dry rather than by cold, Water
29  II, 3|        Fire by hot rather than by dry.~
30  II, 4|          the first of these being dry and hot, and the second
31  II, 4|       Fire, as we saw, is hot and dry while Air is hot and moist,
32  II, 4|          there will be Air if the dry be overcome by the moist.
33  II, 4|          and again, since Fire is dry and hot while Earth is cold
34  II, 4|           while Earth is cold and dry, Fire will result from Earth
35  II, 4|      again, both the cold and the dry must pass-away if Air is
36  II, 4|         cold of the Water and the dry of the Fire have passed-away (
37  II, 4|      owing to the survival of the dry of the Fire and the cold
38  II, 4|        the hot of the Air and the dry of the Earth have passed-away (
39  II, 4|        the hot of the Air and the dry of the Earth-qualities essentially
40  II, 4|         body would result, if the dry of Fire and the moist of
41  II, 5|           be black and then to be dry, while Water was moist and
42  II, 7|          mean" condition that the dry and the moist, as well as
