1 II, 16| 16~Viviparous quadrupeds, as 2 II, 17| 17~The tongue is placed under 3 III, 10| tickled they are quickly set a-laughing, because the motion quickly 4 II, 3 | the upper and the lower abdominal cavities, and here it is 5 III, 6 | bodily constitution that they abide for the most time in the 6 III, 4 | and are visible also in aborted embryos, while still excessively 7 III, 4 | and growths, and small abscesses, as also are the liver, 8 III, 2 | present in some animals, absent from others.~Let us now 9 III, 14| this only when they have abstained from food for a certain 10 I, 1 | it is impossible that any abstraction can form a subject of natural 11 III, 10| possibility of such an occurrence accepted in Caria, that one of that 12 I, 5 | compare and divine, but less accessible to knowledge. The evidence 13 III, 3 | solid, slips into it by accident, choking and much distress 14 III, 9 | necessary conditions which accompany the possession of such organs. 15 I, 1 | is; and therefore is it accomplished in such and such an order, 16 III, 1 | purposes, and this of her own accord. Thus the mouth has one 17 III, 1 | provided with them, and accounts for similar facts relating 18 II, 7 | with the blood. It is the accumulation of this in excess in the 19 II, 1 | however, it would be more accurate to say composition out of 20 I, 1 | is a kind of educational acquaintance with it. For an educated 21 II, 10| of blood destroys sensory activity. For these reasons the organs 22 II, 17| together with its breadth, adapts it for the articulation 23 III, 2 | subtracting from the teeth adds to the horns; the nutriment 24 II, 17| the ingestion of food, but adheres to the lower jaw, because 25 II, 9 | so that nature may use adjoining bones either as though they 26 I, 1 | nature to follow the plan adopted by the mathematicians in 27 I, 1 | Democritus, and he was far from adopting it as a necessary method 28 II, 17| those which suit it best for advancing and retiring in every direction. 29 III, 2 | whereon to set the horns; and AEsop’s Momus is beside the mark, 30 II, 2 | which of all things that affect our senses are the most 31 I, 5 | their greater nearness and affinity to us balances somewhat 32 II, 9 | treatise on Generation will afford a more suitable place for 33 I, 3 | following the indications afforded by the instincts of mankind, 34 III, 6 | and spongy texture that affords amplitude of space for entrance 35 I, 5 | have bidden them not to be afraid to enter, as even in that 36 II, 7 | to them.~It is the brain again-or, in animals that have no 37 I, 3 | unity and continuity of agglomeration, like the unity and continuity 38 II, 1 | and motions not only of aggregate animals but also of the 39 I, 4 | element that they possess, are aggregated under a single class; groups 40 I, 4 | are more remote and only agree in having analogous organs; 41 II, 3 | concoction is effected by the aid of natural heat. Again, 42 I, 1 | that such final end is the aim or purpose of the motion; 43 III, 7 | For each of these sides aims at similarity with the other, 44 III, 3 | and thence pass into the air-pipes; and such an arrangement 45 III, 6 | very motion of the lung, airlike and void, suffices by itself 46 III, 7 | together with that which is akin to it in another pair of 47 III, 1 | animals alike, namely its alimentary office; but in some, besides 48 III, 14| comparatively moderate in their alimentation, the lower stomach presents 49 I, 2 | Cleft-footed, the last term is all-expressive by itself, and to append 50 II, 9 | skin; and she is unable to allot to many different parts 51 III, 14| to contain it enlarges, allowing it to remain stationary 52 III, 10| them, representing him as alluding to this when he wrote, " 53 II, 13| search for prey by eye from aloft, and therefore soar to greater 54 | along 55 I, 1 | the two senses. But the alternation of heat and refrigeration 56 | although 57 II, 2 | will also be used with like ambiguity.~So much then as to the 58 III, 5 | substances are not equally amenable to concoction.~The widest 59 | Amongst 60 III, 14| also the stomach, are of ampler volume, in accordance with 61 I, 1 | for the sake of the thing Anally evolved, and not this for 62 II, 7 | it be, as the Poulp, by analogy. For where there is no blood, 63 I, 4 | resemblance than that of analogy-such as exists between the bone 64 II, 7 | one of the parts which are anatomically continuous with each other; 65 III, 7 | structures, like so many anchorlines thrown out from a ship. 66 I, 5 | specific.~When a function is ancillary to another, a like relation 67 II, 4 | to bursts of passion. For anger is productive of heat; and 68 III, 3 | exposed, as we have said, to annoyance from the food. To obviate 69 I, 1 | when these questions are answered, there yet remains another. 70 I, 3 | we shall find that the ant, the glow-worm, and some 71 I, 1 | whether, for instance, by antagonism or friendship, whether by 72 III, 9 | the left. But motion is antagonistic to fat, for it tends to 73 I, 1 | that is, that the requisite antecedants shall be there, if the final 74 III, 14| stomach, to serve as a sort of antechamber in which the food may be 75 III, 6 | is influenced by hope and anticipation of the future. Moreover, 76 III, 14| This vent is known as the anus, and is in some animals 77 | anywhere 78 III, 6 | viviparous animal, be it apodous or be it possessed of feet, 79 I, 3 | have not, namely, different appellations; and which, if single, prove 80 I, 2 | all-expressive by itself, and to append the higher terms is only 81 III, 2 | then, of the parts which appertain to the head.~ 82 III, 2 | other adequate defensive appliance. There are horns, however, 83 II, 16| of the lips and others by applications of the tongue. But what 84 III, 5 | to the other viscera and apply the same method of inquiry 85 II, 17| it is formed by the close apposition of the gills, which are 86 I, 1 | time of Socrates a nearer approach was made to the method. 87 II, 5 | earthy element; for all such appurtenances are solid and earthy in 88 III, 9 | that the former is more arched than the latter. The right 89 I, 5 | Similarly, the true object of architecture is not bricks, mortar, or 90 II, 10| these facts they form an argument, by which they link sensation 91 I, 1 | organism that will eventually arise from it, of the mule, for 92 II, 14| till the proper occasion arises and then return to their 93 II, 1 | the hand, and the whole arm. But inasmuch as there is 94 III, 10| mentioned of the region of the armpit.~It is said also that when 95 II, 10| sense-organs, they have been arranged by nature in the following 96 II, 9 | acting like a thorn or an arrow lodged in the flesh. Similarly 97 I, 1 | Of these two answers the artificer’s is the better, but it 98 II, 9 | themselves exist. For just as an artist, when he is moulding an 99 I, 5 | intellectual perception the artistic spirit that designed them, 100 II, 2 | To answer this we must ascertain what special effect is attributed 101 III, 10| but as yet it had not been ascertained who was the assassin; when 102 I, 1 | understood that we only ascribe universal education to one 103 I, 1 | What, however, I would ask, are the forces by which 104 III, 10| ascertained who was the assassin; when certain persons asserted 105 I, 5 | common to all animals, or to assemblages, like the class of Birds, 106 III, 10| assassin; when certain persons asserted that they had heard the 107 II, 7 | but a rough and inaccurate assertion; and it would perhaps be 108 II, 8 | length which led nature to assign to them their hard support, 109 III, 3 | This must be a matter of astonishment to any of those who assert 110 I, 1 | mathematicians in their astronomical demonstrations, and after 111 I, 1 | discuss the attributes that attach to this essential character, 112 II, 17| combined with its freedom from attachment, are those which suit it 113 III, 9 | kidneys of a man be once attacked by disease, the malady is 114 II, 3 | concoction may at last be attained. The mouth then, its duty 115 II, 2 | especially if the sensation be attended with pain. This criterion, 116 I, 5 | representations of them were attractive, because they disclose the 117 III, 7 | and scales. For the spleen attracts the residual humours from 118 III, 4 | skull. This is not, however, attributable to the heart being formed 119 II, 2 | ascertain what special effect is attributed to a hotter substance, and 120 II, 13| diverted thence, and used to augment the thickness of the skin. 121 III, 2 | being here spent on the augmentation of the latter. Does, it 122 II, 10| level with each other, to avail themselves of the inspiratory 123 III, 2 | excrement; and of this it avails itself when frightened. 124 I, 5 | not recoil with childish aversion from the examination of 125 II, 14| they never have hair in the axillae, nor on the pubes, as man 126 II, 16| said to be obliged to walk backwards while they are grazing. 127 I, 1 | judgement as to the goodness or badness of the method used by a 128 II, 17| example, that are used as bait to catch them. So also the 129 I, 5 | nearness and affinity to us balances somewhat the loftier interest 130 II, 14| therefore left comparatively bald, in spite of its being the 131 II, 9 | to them by thin fibrous bands, grow the fleshy parts, 132 III, 2 | useless to them but actually baneful; whereas the greater strength 133 III, 10| lung. Moreover, among the Barbarians, where heads are chopped 134 I, 3 | feathers are divisible into Barbed and Unbarbed, and feet into 135 II, 9 | surrounding flesh that its solid base shall be soft and mucilaginous. 136 III, 7 | might be taken for a kind of bastard liver; while in those in 137 III, 10| said also that when men in battle are wounded anywhere near 138 I, 1 | is that which is yet to be-health, let us say, or a man-that, 139 I, 4 | other such, if such there be-stands apart from others, and does 140 II, 9 | or cloven, horns, and the beaks of birds, all of which are 141 II, 14| instance, in the case with bears.~No animal has so much hair 142 | became 143 | becoming 144 II, 4 | said, is the case with the bee and the tribe of ants, and 145 II, 9 | central part in which it begins, and each forms a continuous 146 III, 7 | either side with the kidneys behind-attach the great vessel to the 147 III, 4 | quality than either. For it behoves the supreme part to be as 148 I, 1 | therefore even more reason to believe, than that mortal animals 149 II, 6 | divided into toes. What has ben said hardly applies to the 150 II, 9 | body of an animal shall bend during locomotion, this 151 III, 9 | rule that applies to all bendings, are destitute of flesh; 152 I, 1 | and to the virtues which benefit mankind.~Of the method itself 153 I, 3 | and Black, Straight and Bent; and if we characterize 154 III, 4 | manifestly timorous, or betray their cowardice by their 155 | beyond 156 I, 5 | go in, reported to have bidden them not to be afraid to 157 I, 3 | like those of animals with bifid hoofs, and Uncleft or Undivided, 158 II, 9 | requires; and comparing the big animals with each other, 159 II, 16| birds. For they are winged bipeds; and this makes it necessary 160 II, 16| we should at once have a bird-like beak.~The use of the lips 161 I, 4 | the larger groups-such as Birds-which comprehend many species, 162 II, 7 | animal body at the time of birth have now nearly all been 163 II, 2 | case with blood-vessel and bit of blood-vessel-while in 164 III, 5 | to haemorrhage; so that bleeding occurs not infrequently 165 III, 9 | final result of thorough blood-concoction is lard and suet. For just 166 II, 10| instruments of sensation are the blood-containing parts, and the cavity in 167 II, 2 | blood-vessel and bit of blood-vessel-while in another sense they are 168 III, 7 | stomach, and owing to its bloodlike character is enabled to 169 II, 3 | something is furnished by the bloodvessels, which run throughout the 170 II, 16| through gills, or through a blowhole, or, if they are insects, 171 III, 2 | For the point whence the blows could be delivered with 172 II, 13| hardness must necessarily blunt the sharpness of vision, 173 III, 1 | to prevent their getting blunted by mutual friction, such 174 II, 4 | This explains why bulls and boars are so choleric and so passionate. 175 II, 9 | hucklebone, as a connecting bolt, so as to allow of flexure 176 II, 16| defence are fulfilled by a bonelike beak, which forms a compound 177 II, 8 | does there appear to be any bony or earthy part, worthy of 178 III, 2 | the large size and great branching of their horns makes these 179 I, 2 | necessarily involves such breaking up and dislocation. The 180 I, 1 | the breath by its passage breaks open the outlets of the 181 II, 7 | bone, which some call the Bregma, is the last to become solidified; 182 II, 17| with talons that have the broader tongues. All birds use their 183 II, 17| letters are such as have the broadest tongues; and why the viviparous 184 II, 1 | configuration, are yet, to speak broadly, formed from a single homogeneous 185 III, 3 | apportioned to their respective bronchi, and thence pass into the 186 II, 5 | of blood coagulates, or broths which contain such fibrous 187 II, 15| might otherwise get in. The brows are placed over the junction 188 III, 2 | Similarly endowed are the Bubalus and gazelle; for though 189 I, 1 | as for instance in house building, this is the true sequence. 190 III, 5 | foundation walls in the other are built out of the stones. Now just 191 III, 14| throughout or a part of it bulges just before it enters the 192 II, 10| impossible; for nothing so burdened can be held upright. This 193 II, 2 | water, but when once heated burn other substances with a 194 II, 2 | substances that have been burnt nearly all possess some 195 II, 4 | temperament, and liable to bursts of passion. For anger is 196 II, 15| age they often become so bushy as to require cutting. The 197 I, 1 | philosophized about Nature, busied themselves, was the material 198 III, 5 | who in consequence of a cachectic state have secreted sweat 199 III, 14| colon, and to a kind of caecal dilatation. After this it 200 III, 14| it comes just before the caecum and the lower stomach.~ 201 II, 8 | the os sepiae, and in the Calamaries there is the so-called gladius. 202 III, 14| size, not much larger in calibre than the gut, and smooth 203 III, 2 | horses; or great size, as in camels; for excessive bulk, such 204 II, 8 | all the Crustacea, as the Carcini (Crabs) and the Carabi ( 205 II, 7 | madness, and death. For the cardiac heat and the centre of life 206 II, 17| and soft as to be taken by careless observers for a tongue. 207 III, 10| an occurrence accepted in Caria, that one of that country 208 III, 1 | some animals, as the wild Carnivora, the teeth answer both purposes, 209 II, 7 | auger or the saw with the carpenter or his craft, simply because 210 III, 9 | kidneys, and is a malady that carries off sheep with great rapidity. 211 II, 9 | off, grows again. Now the cartilages of these land animals are 212 III, 2 | also the only animals that cast them. This casting is not 213 III, 2 | animals that cast them. This casting is not simply advantageous 214 II, 17| So also the gad-flies and cattle-flies can pierce through the skin 215 III, 3 | tongue very rarely gets caught between the teeth; and, 216 III, 12| when increased size has caused some part of it to extend 217 III, 5 | when the deposit of mud ceases; so also do the largest 218 II, 10| hearing, sight, and the centrally placed sense of smell, it 219 I, 4 | similarity that Birds, Fishes, Cephalopoda, and Testacea have been 220 III, 4 | the heart contain a bone, certainly in none of those that we 221 I, 5 | dimensions. On the other hand, in certitude and in completeness our 222 III, 14| food, some of them, as the Cestreus (mullet), have a fleshy 223 III, 6 | dolphin, and all the spouting Cetacea. For many animals lie half-way 224 II, 2 | of fire may be smoke or charcoal, and though the former of 225 II, 8 | warmth, surrounds it, as a chaufferette does the embers, and keeps 226 II, 8 | Tortoises, including the Chelone and the several kinds of 227 II, 9 | example, which enclose the chest are intended to ensure the 228 II, 8 | that has sensibility and chief of all the primary sensibility, 229 I, 1 | of like characters in the child. The same statement holds 230 I, 5 | therefore must not recoil with childish aversion from the examination 231 III, 4 | shown by its intolerance of chill, whereas the region of the 232 III, 4 | it may counterbalance the chilliness of that side. For the left 233 II, 7 | of sleep. For either by chilling the blood that streams upwards 234 II, 4 | animals timorous. For fear chills the body; so that in animals 235 III, 10| Barbarians, where heads are chopped off with great rapidity, 236 III, 2 | too did she act when she chose the head whereon to set 237 II, 2 | nearly all possess some heat, cinders, for example, and ashes, 238 II, 8 | longitudinally, like sinew, but into circular segments, this being the 239 II, 10| placed as to divide the circumference of the head into two equal 240 III, 7 | that it is, as it were, the citadel of the body.~All sanguineous 241 II, 6 | having to act the part of a clasp, it must be of glutinous 242 III, 14| of small size. It may be classed pretty nearly always under 243 I, 3 | difficult enough so to make the classification, as that each animal shall 244 II, 9 | part of the treatise, and classifying them with the homogeneous 245 III, 5 | invisible until they have been cleared of mud.~As the blood-vessels 246 III, 4 | statements receives its clearest demonstration. For the heart 247 II, 8 | stretching like the latter. Its cleavage, however, is such that it 248 III, 5 | invisible owing to their being clogged up, just as the dykes for 249 III, 3 | supplied by the larynx, which closes and opens, just as in the 250 II, 16| some letters are formed by closures of the lips and others by 251 III, 10| of this, solidified and coagulated, that the substance of the 252 II, 9 | that hinders the blood from coagulating; indeed the blood, when 253 II, 2 | Heat appears to cause both coagulation and melting. Now such things 254 III, 9 | in the cavity, nor is any coagulum found there after death. 255 III, 5 | then, why these two vessels coalesce into one centre, and spring 256 III, 14| channel and into the spiral coil. For so nature can regulate 257 III, 4 | least blood of all, and the coldest; while in the middle cavity 258 III, 1 | delicate, so as to be of use in collecting seeds and picking up minute 259 III, 7 | excretion of the fluid which collects in the bladder. In animals 260 II, 13| against the eyes. The risk of collision being thus small, nature, 261 III, 3 | the stomach are seen to be coloured by its dregs; and such discoloration 262 III, 2 | others teeth suited for combat, and to the rest some other 263 I, 3 | Fishes, each of which groups combines a multitude of differentiae, 264 II, 7 | to moderate the latter, combining in it the properties of 265 II, 2 | power of burning or melting combustible or fusible matter, while 266 III, 9 | For inasmuch as motion commences from the right, and the 267 III, 14| whatsoever with which to comminute or grind down their food-it 268 II, 17| birds use their tongues to communicate with each other. But some 269 III, 4 | liver are most closely in communion with the heart. On the other 270 II, 7 | heat to escape downwards in company with the blood. It is the 271 II, 8 | the case of touch she was compelled by necessity to do so. For 272 III, 2 | increased, not only without any compensating gain whatso::ver, but with 273 I, 1 | possible for a man to have this competence in some one branch of knowledge 274 II, 2 | gets cold more rapidly and completely. For in fact fire never 275 III, 14| office and fails even more completely-for birds have no teeth at all, 276 I, 5 | hand, in certitude and in completeness our knowledge of terrestrial 277 II, 1 | executive parts of the body are compounded out of bones, sinews, flesh, 278 I, 1 | this part was formed into a concavity, that into a flat surface; 279 I, 5 | special charm. The scanty conceptions to which we can attain of 280 III, 5 | Animals.~So much, then, as concerns the heart and the blood-vessels. 281 II, 2 | in another treatise.~In conclusion, then, seeing that the terms 282 III, 7 | of being an inevitable concomitant. Therefore it is that in 283 I, 1 | at any rate be with the concretion of material and form. For 284 II, 7 | that is above the earth, it condenses again into water owing to 285 III, 10| character; for this structure conduces best to its strength and 286 II, 2 | hotter blood is, the more conducive is it to strength, while 287 I, 5 | Absence of haphazard and conduciveness of everything to an end 288 I, 1 | our investigation is to be conducted; whether, I mean, we are 289 I, 4 | division, and the mode of conducting it so as best to attain 290 II, 16| are discussing should, in conformity with the requirements, be 291 I, 5 | order of exposition which conforms, as we have indicated, to 292 II, 7 | much the same thing as to confound the auger or the saw with 293 II, 9 | one and the same name are confounded the entire organs and the 294 II, 4 | this emotion. For water is congealed by cold. This also explains 295 I, 5 | celestial world, as far as our conjectures could reach, we proceed 296 III, 7 | contraries; and right is conjoined with hot, after the manner 297 II, 7 | is wrought by the two in conjunction. So far then this much is 298 I, 3 | sentences coupled together by conjunctive particles. For instance, 299 III, 9 | vessel, the ducts which connect these with the kidneys being 300 III, 3 | animal imbibes fluid. For the consequences just mentioned occur invariably, 301 I, 1 | determined their existence as its consequent. These however again, are 302 I, 5 | things as their necessary consequents.~Instances of what I mean 303 II, 9 | a soft and mucilaginous consistence to the cartilage. But in 304 III, 7 | the body itself is double, consisting of two halves, which are 305 II, 3 | scarcely an exception, and conspicuously all such as are capable 306 I, 1 | guidance of fact, finds himself constrained to speak of the ratio (olugos) 307 I, 1 | it, spite of himself, by constraint of facts. In the time of 308 III, 10| nature made a division, constructing the midriff as a kind of 309 III, 14| require more nutriment, and consume more fodder than the rest.~ 310 II, 3 | and increases when much is consumed, and also why it becomes 311 III, 8 | nutriment. This increased consumption necessarily entails the 312 III, 14| is one, and in immediate contiguity with the mouth when the 313 I, 1 | to be broken owing to the contorted position of the foetus in 314 II, 2 | statements, though in verbal contradiction with each other, may yet 315 II, 1 | more than one category of contrasts, heat and cold, for instance, 316 II, 10| brain would be directly contravened. For the brain would itself 317 II, 17| immobility of the lower jaw also contributes in some measure to stunt 318 II, 16| to serve a higher office, contributing in common with other parts 319 II, 9 | and the organ horn, are contrivances to ensure the preservation 320 II, 7 | is in excess, nature so contrives as to set by it another 321 III, 14| remain stationary and undergo conversion. Thus is it in those animals 322 I, 1 | is that determines this convertibility.~Another matter which must 323 I, 1 | hypothetical necessity is simply convertible, and what cause it is that 324 III, 5 | divide and subdivide so as to convey it to all parts; and, again, 325 III, 5 | laid down channels for the conveyance of the blood throughout 326 II, 16| instrument with which it conveys food, fluid and solid alike, 327 III, 14| straight, but has a number of convolutions. For amplitude of space 328 I, 5 | are Reproduction, Growth, Copulation, Waking, Sleep, Locomotion, 329 I, 4 | species, such as Socrates and Coriscus, are the real existences; 330 I, 1 | Democritus says will be strictly correct. For such appears to have 331 II, 4 | owing to its having become corrupted; so that one part of the 332 III, 4 | animals, and are not to be counted with the parts which are 333 II, 7 | influences require to be counterbalanced, so that they may be reduced 334 II, 17| which is thus as it were the counterpart of the elephant’s nostril. 335 II, 9 | Libya and in hot and dry countries generally. But the greater 336 III, 10| Caria, that one of that country was actually brought to 337 II, 1 | water, another fire, they couple each separate sense-organ 338 II, 2 | alike for the development of courage and of intelligence. Accordingly, 339 III, 4 | timorous, while it is more courageous if the organ be smaller 340 III, 4 | timorous, or betray their cowardice by their spitefulness.~What 341 III, 1 | have none; why the horns of cows are different from those 342 II, 8 | Crustacea, as the Carcini (Crabs) and the Carabi (Prickly 343 II, 7 | with the carpenter or his craft, simply because the work 344 I, 1 | speak very much like such a craftsman. What, however, I would 345 I, 4 | collectively, but the Ostrich, the Crane, and the other indivisible 346 II, 7 | superabundance that the cranial bone, which some call the 347 I, 1 | an end. For just as human creations are the products of art, 348 I, 1 | that propagation implies a creative seed endowed with certain 349 II, 2 | that bees and other similar creatures are of a more intelligent 350 III, 10| statement made by much more credible persons than those who tell 351 III, 6 | of feet, is so given to creep into holes as are the ovipara.~ 352 I, 1 | flying, swimming, walking, creeping, are plainly specifically 353 II, 2 | attended with pain. This criterion, however, would seem sometimes 354 I, 1 | individual person is thus critical in all or nearly all branches 355 III, 2 | dull-sighted in making this hostile criticism. For had the horns been 356 I, 1 | hearer shall be able to criticize the method of a professed 357 I, 4 | touched upon the canons for criticizing the method of natural science, 358 III, 1 | these latter also are more crooked in them than in the generality 359 III, 1 | those birds that are called Crooked-clawed it is invariably hooked, 360 III, 14| them what is called the crop precedes the stomach and 361 III, 1 | also in crows and birds of crowlike habit, while in the smaller 362 III, 1 | hard and strong, as also in crows and birds of crowlike habit, 363 III, 9 | enhances the difficulties of a cure.~The duct which runs to 364 I, 1 | in the body causes by its currents the formation of the stomach 365 III, 2 | Bonasus again, whoe horns curve inwards towards each other, 366 III, 1 | small bits. They are also curved, because these are almost 367 II, 8 | fishes. For instance, in the Cuttle-fishes there is what is known as 368 II, 17| instance in the fishes known as Cyprini, is so very flesh-like and 369 II, 17| of their great liking for dainty food.

Again, whenever 447 II, 10| Were these latter otherwise disposed, and separated from each 448 III, 8 | land-tortoises it is of disproportionately large size. Moreover, inasmuch 449 II, 2 | is a matter of frequent dispute what animals or what parts 450 II, 2 | If there be this endless disputing about hot and cold, which 451 III, 7 | bladder, though in so doing we disregard the due order of succession 452 I, 3 | it also would involve the disruption of a species into different 453 III, 4 | above, they are found on dissection to have morbid affections 454 III, 4 | blood.
